Is there a system for matching lure color to water conditions?

ask the crappie fisherman if color matters. when they are pulling cranks for crappie, they will start with 8 to 10 different colors spread out till they find witch colors are working that day then change the rest over to them.

You're more or less right about that, Rooster. I'm just curious how this 10yr old thread got revived ?? LOL !!

I suspect some automated spambot commented on it, bringing it to the top. Then Peter prolly deleted the spammy post but it was still at the top. Happens with a board I run.

You're probably right, JCB .... there was a post after Elnut's, but it didn't show up when I opened this thread the other day. I thought that was kinda curious, and figured that was what had happened.

The water temps have cooled off quite a bit the last week or so. What are you you guys using now? Lures and colors. My neighbor caught a good one on an orange roostertail Saturday

I believe that the fish strike my baits out of compassion, or pity. My Grandfather told me to consider colors that are seen in the season that you are fishing. Also , I have no fear of using dark colors in dark water .
