Nickel blades with white/silverish skirt. Especially with sun shining. It really seems to flash in the sun. At least from my point of view.

Suggestion to the OP: Ask what kind water guys fish when they tell you their preferred colors.

I fish a lot of clear water and these are my two favorites:
Black/Chart skirt Chart/Black Nickel blades
Purple Skirt, Brass Blades (night fishing champion)

Could live with black/nickel blades and black/orange blades or chart blades. Maybe throw in a brown-gold/gold blade.
