Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

Dark Green crayfish
Red Craw
Tennessee Shad

Why, if black and blue is the number one jig color in the good ole US, almost no one makes a black and blue crankbait?
I'm guessing you want something to dredge across the bottom?  I'll paint you up one special Dan.  You can keep it or use it as a "dock prize" at the Spring open.

Simply put. If I had only three choices for my box without being too specific they would be.

Any or some sort of shad color
Any or some sort of craw color
Any or some sort of chartruese color

so in short.... shad, craw, chartruese

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.

It is funny you said that, DK.  I have often thought that myself so here goes........  The only "almost no ones" I could think of at first was Bill Norman and Storm.  Although Bill Norman doesn't have black and blue in their line now, I do own a Deep Little N that is blue sparkle finish with a black back.  I also have a chrome blue with black back wiggle wart.  Storm still makes this color as part of their "original series line".  The wiggle wart has paid huge dividends in the Hot Pond.  The only other black blue crank I could find in the 2009 Bass Pro Shop "The Bass Book" was a Bomber Model A.  It looks blue with black stripes and the color indicated by the number was chrome blue/black bars.  I didn't find anything else.
