Location: On the X that marks the mucky spot | I've just done my first pike pattern and I'm debating which tail would be best. Take a look and let me know which one you like best. The first is a light green/white, the second is a flo red, and the last is pearl.

Actually- I think the first one will have a better visual effect in the water. The pearl looks great, but I'm not sure how it will reflect once in water.
I like the first one. |

| Definitely the pearl, and then repaint the bait to match.
I don't like green.  |
|
|
|
| Orange...
High contrast boys...
Orange tails get smoked...
Just look at black and orange bulldawgs, hot tail walleye dawgs, etc...
Orange, orange, orange...

| Orange is going to be the best choice because it has the most contrast, red would be better as far as contrast but people argue that fish cannot see red. With the risk of sounding gay I think Pink or purple would be a good color to mix with the green as well. But for the natural look it has got to be the pearl.(I never liked the natural look) |

| Northerns have orange in their fins, so I'd use the orange. Besides orange produces for me bigtime. |

Location: Muskoka Ontario,Canada | For a natural look the first tail by far but as Hulbert said (and I agree with) contrast is often the way to go. Nice job on them all though. |

Location: Northern Illinois | I like the red. Most muskie lures have at least a small amount of red. I guess time will tell, try 'em all. |
