    Favorite square bill color?

    I like to use the sexy shad or shad pattern in clear water.

    If the water is stained i will switch to an orange belly craw etc.

    What about you guys and gals?

    Sexy shad and blue back with chrome sides I think are the only two square bills I've caught bass on. I don't throw one a lot though.

    I throw either a sexy shad or orange belly craw. The craw color is slowly becoming by favorite on my home lake.

    I was fishing a local lake last week with water temps around 47*. Pulled into a nice creek wishing it was 55* temp and mid march to cath those fish starting to stage. I like to throw a squarebill first then try a spinnerbait if they are more aggressive.

    tomato shad, always do well with it, especially if yellow perch are abundant. Ghost shad is a good color too.
