I am curious on what every ones most productive square bill colors are. Sexy shad has been working for me but I have plenty of those now.
Chartreuse Black Back has always been my go to square bill color. I find it particularly good on Lake St. Clair and Kent Lake. Its worked well on other lakes, but those two stand out.
I throw the same color cranks, know matter if their square, round,deep or shallow. Natural patterns and colors. If I had to pick two square bill, it would be strike king sexy-shad and Bill Norman sunfish.
K.V.D. 1.5 Black back chartreuse and orange belly craw. Rapala DT6 Orange craw.
You got to have a red craw color. At least for spring though I find when the fish are aggressive the red can still kick other color butt like crazy on many days. Once red quits working, cut it off and toss it away.
I like parrot (what I call blue-chartreuse variations) and shads. When I'm not throwing red craw. I admit I throw pearl a lot too in all kinds of crankbaits. The bass appear to like it at times really well and I like that about them.
