Yes you can. You will need a #1 mosquito hook with a 10 inch berkley red shad power worm fished on 2# test line. Do not fish it deeper than 3ft deep because they say that red disappears after that. If the Berkley is too expensive for you go to a Zoom Ole monster in the same color, although since color doesn't matter just pick any worm in any color whatever one is the cheapest. Use a cheap 3/32 oz weight for this set up. Throw it on a crappie rod and have fun with it.

Fish are color blind but can see any line over 4# test.

What is the difference. The color of the bait is what defines the pattern. You will never see a brown and orange Shad or a pearl crawfish.
So color does make a difference.

He is just trolling, usually gets a full livewell every post.


In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts flame wars or intentionally upsets people on the Internet by posting inflammatory and digressive,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses[2] and normalizing tangential discussion,[3] either for the troll's amusement or a specific gain.

That’s your interpretation! Just my opinions and experiences don’t need any response, I’m good!
