Bait Research
The cellular composition of the largemouth bass’ eye is tuned to respond to two colors: red and green. Bass can see these colors well, and make decisions with high selectivity based on these colors. Outside of red and green, many dark colors appear quite similar to bass, which are unable to make highly selective decisions based on those dark colors like blue and black. Likewise, bass cannot readily distinguish between very bright colors, like chartreuse and white.
My go to year round in any type of green with red flake in any lure. I only change that when using a crankbait of course which I use a shad color.

I envy you guys throwing soft plastics. I just don't have the patience for it.
I've been catching them on white spinner baits and chatter baits. Also tend to do well with dark blue/black.
And my go to when nothing else seems to interest them is a good old school Rattling Rogue jerk bait.
I've been fishing one of these since my dad would take me out to Bayou Pigeon and Sorrell in the mid 70's.
