Green River Baits

[redranger]

I want to come to Green River to fish for some smallmouth. What are the best colors to bring for tubes and jigs. Never fished the lake before, so any help in colors will be apprecited.
Thanks

I hope you find your answer from someone on here. I would like to know something about Green myself. I have fished several times this year with no luck. I catch a few fish in a weekend then read it took over 20lbs to win a tournament. I need a few pointers on that lake myself. Good luck.

I have had my best luck from the state park south to corbins bottoms. I have caught them everywhere but that area of the lake has been best. I would suggest night fishing with dark single colorado spinnerbaits or a black and chartruse football jig. Both in 1/2 oz. Those are my go to baits at night on green for smallmouth. I would think fishing in the evening and then into the night would be best. Look for flats where the main channel is close. They like to pull up there at night. The ramp #1 area is good area to focus on. I have had good numbers from around there.

We catch smallies in GRL all the time in the summer. Mainly between Lone Valley and Butler Creek. We always use 4" grubs in yellow or white with a 3/16 jig head. You can let them fall slowly, bounce them up and down, steady retreive or even t-rig them. We don't catch many largemouths with them but the Kentuckys will sure whack em. They're easy on the budget too.
