I use the smaller scorpion spoons, in May my favorite color is silver, I either scratch the paint off or use the ones where the paints wears off. But the rest of the year I prefer anything orange with the copper back. Confusion, rays raz dolphin, there one with an orange stripe and copper back, perch. Alot of times I run a 20,30 or 40 jet about 150 to 200 straight back. You really don't need a lot of different colors, getting the lure at the right depth is more important. They work real well behind dipseys.
