What are some of your favorite clear water color patterns for hard baits?

Basically I will throw anything except the most bold colors in the box when fishing clear water. I try sticking with something realistic looking or earth tone colored. Primarily baitfish patterns.

I like it have have some sort of flash to them and the natural baitfish patterns such as ozark shad and threadfin shad. Megabass has the vision 110 for both of those colors and can always catch clear water bass for me.


Thanking the lord for another day on the water

Natural shad on a clear day or something with some gold on a cloudy day

Something translucent on a clear day but something "shadish" color on cloudy days.

Norman has a color called "apparition" that I like for clear water cranking. I throw green pumpkin 90% of the time on plastics regardless of water clarity.
