I fish for reds and flounder more than specks, and chartreuse works great for me.

Any color you have confidence in, as long as it has chartreuse

Down South Lures - Chicken on a Chain work great in Big Lake.

My go to for Big Lake.

Also like chartreuse and its variations. Chartreuse ice, margarita, etc.

Other colors are bourbon, purple demon, and opening night.

Chartreuse for 80% of my fishing trout and reds. If trout fishing and the water is super clear they seem to bite the shrimp creole/opening night/ or blue moon colors better. Glow or white for night fishing

Depends on conditions, but my favorites are shrimp creole, lemon head, magneto and avocado. Obviously matrix names, but everyone makes the same variations.

I probably throw matrix shads 80% of the time now. Other than that its voodoo shrimp and some pre-made double rigs.

Where can I find the DS lures? Does any store in LA carry them or are they online only?
