I've had some success w/Corkies and my vote is any color in the world so long as it's white or pink. CF?

Was thinking about getting pink. Sounds like that's what I'll end up getting.

Never heard of that color mentioned. I'll have to check it out. What time of day do you use the clear w/ green or black back? Early mornings?

The middle of the day when the sun is the brightest.

I would not fish a corky this time of year if I were you. Fish it in the winter when the trout's metabolism is down and they don't want to move much to feed. Throw it out and let it sit for a few seconds and let it hit the bottom, give it a real slow twitch or two and let it fall back to the bottom. Repeat this until a big trout inhales it. Hope this helps.

I've heard it said, "If you fish a Corky as slow as you possibly can, then that's too fast...." CF?
