| colors I tend to look for detailed paint jobs with lifelike eyes and a durable finish. My favorite color the past two years for topwaters has been the pearl/tropical fruit pattern in the Hydro series squirts. Another great combo has been "blurple" or purple/black. A white, silver, or blueish belly with darker topsides seems to work well on tunnoids as well. I also like the mackeral tops, in green or blue, and the red head white combo too.

| Will it be a topwater, sinking lure or a stick bait, I prefer lures that sink for bluefin. They are very affective with bigger fish. I would match the hatch for the area. I like bright as well but all of my topwater tuna have come on fish looking patterns like the one below....57" fish on a spinning reel and sinking lure We wil be up chasing them on topwater as soon as they show |
