I like the silver with the glow strip with a single hook, red blade tipped with a spike for pannies or smelt
i use the red blades when chasin lakers  with a nice sharp trebel :) tipped with a juicy piece of cutbait

I like the one with the red or chartreuse strip, or the glow strip for evening crappies and eyes. Tip with a small piece of crawler, maggot, mealie, or waxy. For pike and lake trout, use a postage stamp sized piece of cut oily baitfish like anchovy or sucker. For walleyes, a small minnow head is best.

i havent had more luck one way or the other, just make sure you have a couple different colors because somedays they like one color, the next they will want a different color. go with whatever works, you might have to experiment before you find the right color for the given day.

I have found that the ''red tag'' has helped fish bite when neutral.I like to attach a strip of red glow lure paint to help a bite in low light situations.

i use mealies for panfish but catch mostly anything bass pickerel ect. but last year i started putting live 1/2" to 1' minnows on the silver with singal hook and red tag it works awesome when u let the pimple sit the minnow still moves i catch allot of big perch and some bass pickerel and i been doing that allot now

I like the silver pimple,with red tag.Tipped with a waxy/mousy or spike. I also like the single hook for panfishing.

I have had my best success with the gold-1/10 oz pimple..red tag-single hook, and a ball of bait my friends call a "gobo"--6-8 spikes with a wax worm in the middle...like a grub sandwich...

Bait peddlers love me.....:-)

Try it, finny things like it...
