Short and sweet- I'm going to pick up a feed shallow - can you guys recommend the colours that work for you?

Re: Best colour feed shallow
I've had most of mine on the mullet colour,but to be honest I think its down to the lures action more than anything.

Re: Best colour feed shallow
Yes the Pearl No 14 is the best - I have had more bass on that than any other hard lure.lowie69 wrote:p14 pearl white evEry 1 swears by them
The Mullet No. 11 is another good choice but not as reliable, seems to fish best on bright sunny days in relatively calm conditions.
Go for the 128 mm lures. I have a couple of the smaller ones but they have been much less successful at catching bass (but had plenty of small pollock on them).
