Irish Jigger reported he had fish in the back of the bay on Nuclear Chicken..

General rule of thumb is in murky water dark colors and cleaner water lighter colors...

Nuclear chicken is a good overall choice and my go to since it has dark and light colors...

You'll see Blackfish Bobby was catching back in the river using Gulp Shrimp on a teaser since he knew the fish were feeding on Grass and Mantis Shrimp.

Every day is different as is every location... Match the hatch in terms of size and color and you're in..

For the past few season, my son and I have done very well with white during the first 4-6 weeks of fluke season. River, back bay, open bay and inshore white out produced all other colors for us. Only exception is when we found the fluke feeding on mantis shrimp, then nothing beats a 4” new penny GULP shrimp.

By the end of June we usually start doing better on pink, pink shine, chartreuse or nuclear chicken as it varies day to day and sometimes tide to tide.
