I am looking for a sample of a Smithwick rogue that has yellow sides and an almost pink/red back. I think Tim Hughes originally did the color. Fished with a guy last year on Lake Ozark who said it is a great color for there and norfork, and asked him to take a pic of the lure, but never got to..anyone help me out?
Have you looked for it on Tim Hughes website? I'm sure I can duplicate it if I see it.

yeah I don't see it on his sight. I will let you guys know if I can come up with a pic..thanx.
is this the color that you are referring to?
Special run color, will see if I can come up with a color number for you. Have a couple that I picked up years ago at Rogers in Liberty, MO and Hitchin Post by the dam at Table Rock. Think it was supposed to be a variation of the purple/chart, but the back color was more of a light reddish lavender on most of them. Is the one you are after shot over chrome?
Wouldn't have been the "sour grape" from the limited series, maybe painted a little too light? Also sounds a little like some of the "purple bleeding chart sides (kind of a coach dog)" that I have. There are also some people painting table rock shad versions that are more lavender than purple to my eye.
Have not made it into the boat to look, garage froze for first time in the 13 years I've lived in the house...will check for you when it thaws a bit.
