which spoons work good with a chartouse back
Purple, pink, blue, silver, gold, red, green, orange. That's with chartreuse as a back color. Lots of purple or pink back colors too.
It all depends on the day.
I'll second that! Purple and pink are probably two of my most consistent colors...... as far as the 'back' color, some days chartreuse is good, some days pink backs are really good. Spoon colors can change day to day, and hour by hour sometimes, depends on water condition, clarity, and where the sun is at.Quote:

Geez, it was only a few years back it was the color antifreeze was hot. I sure hope
that it don't start a craze like the one with the custom cranks out there. lol.

well the texas winds have been terable the last couple of weeks so the kayak is put up and redfish has come to a halt. started to refill my trolling spoons for the 2018 season. Thanks for the replys on the spoon colors. I ended up with all pink and chartrouse backs with some plain copper with a lot of gold. Here are a few of them.

LtDan, I like some of your color schemes for sure especially the "Bloody Nose" I have that one in 4 sizes and only bought one as a joke for a fishin' buddy who puts one out all the time, but I purchased a old Silver Leaf in that color it was about 4" long he used it and caught the smallest white bass ever it was not as long as the spoon. It is a good choice tho. Years ago the copper backed Stinger Scorpions were sold at Happy Hooker. and was told it is a must at the WB. Funny is that when Capt. Dan had his Happy Hooker painted it was on a silver blank. Never understood that man at all.
