Location: Appleton,WI | ive heard chrome come into play when the water temps drop in the fall.What are your thoughts on chrome and muskie's? |

| Actually, chrome is a good color all year round, if the water is clear. A chrome bait with a blue back has been a successful color for me and a few friends. It gives off a great flash on bright sunny days. |

I have had good luck on Blue/Chrome baits also. Mostly in clear water, Cass lake and Green Bay.
Lake Erie we had great action with that color on bright sunny days for huge eyes trolling cranks. |

| Great color Eric for clear water, like when we finally get out and fish Green Bay 
I finally have one of your gliders from Todd, and can't wait to toss it after attaching some 5/0s.
Thank you,

Location: Mallard Island Lake Vermilion MN | I like them shinny baits.
Mirror finish makes fish pay attention more as they see themself an go on up for a big smooch.
Next thing they know I is ripping lips.
They are whining>> Hey what the $#%@, that hurts dude!!!
Minutes later after a bit of a fit, they come up boat side for some photos and FREE dental work.

Location: New Baden IL | I have caught fish on chrome jakes and chrome believers both in super clear water and super dirty water. There was one stretch that a 10" chrome and blue Jake was the only bait we could move fish on, and ended up breaking both of the ones I had on fish thrashing in the net....oh well at least we caught them before we busted them up.
When the water gets so dirty that there is only 6-12" visibility, I love lots of color and flash, so chrome and holoform baits get the nod in my boat.
On a side note has anybody had trouble with chrome baits turning cloudy in really cold water? I have one believer that turns almost milky white in cold water... What's up with that?

Love em, and I can't wait to see if Drifter comes out with them in the near future. They work at all times of the year.
