better colors for warm harnesses ??

What are some of the better colors for warm harnesses...

I liked gold and red and gold and green this past year if we are talking walleye.

The chartrouse (sp?) seemed to attract more sheephead than walleye, but maybe it was me or the location, but I made sure I had the gold spoons.

I feel the same about sheephead, and the green colors as well as chartruse, I will even go so far as to say that in almost all locations those colors attract far to many sheephead for my tastes. Almost any copper backed spoon worked well for me in june and the gold and rainbow colored blades have worked well for me for over 10 years, I can't give you an exact time frame as my log books are at my camper. Red, pink and orange colored beads worked best for me also.

I believe you are right about chartrouse it is a shepherd magnet. I only use 3 colors on spoons and harnesses casting or trolling. Pooh bear purple, jeager bomb, and pooh bear chartrouse. But again use what ever works for you..

Oops sometimes a plain gold blade or a Orange/gold works well when casting or bottom bouncing.. thks

the only color you need is gold, your depth and presentation is the most important. An old indian guide once told me that all those fancy colors and lures are designed to catch fishermen and not fish.
