    If you only had one color to choose from, what would it be?

    Yes,think Fliptail had the 1st worms with the red tails & I did use some.The worm I used the most back then,was what we called a fan belt.It was made by Creame,8" long & had 2 stainless hooks already in them.Delong made the 1st ones & used a harder plastic but the Cream"s were a little softer.I would buy them by the card(12).The day I got hooked on bass fishing,was in the late 60"s fishing in Aug.We were using these fan belts & boated 14 bass & 1 jackfish.Here is the best part,1 over 8lbs,2 over 7lbs,4 over 6lbs & 7 over 5 lbs.Also,we lost 8 big fish.Oh,what a day!
