Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | Going to make a enw Super Cisco but in 7.5" or 8" length. Do you guys like the red colroed diving lips or the clear? If red, I would also color the brass hooks red (anodized red). Thanks, James Attachments ---------------- Picture1.jpg (11KB - 117 downloads) | ||

Posts: 242 | I am making the vote of "Clear Lip and hooks (no red hooks)", which I don't see as an option, but any bait that has those brass hooks painted red, I switch out. Just my opinion and my experience and preference obviously vary from others. | ||

Posts: 1360 Location: Lake "y" cause lake"x" got over fished | I as well remove all of the red hooks because as Ryanjoz said they make a mess in my box also once they flake. Not a fan of the red hooks. My 2 cents | ||

Posts: 375 | actually i think the clear lips are great and while you are at it just do clear hooks and clear see-thru bodies too since i have caught so few fish because i ALWAYS choose the wrong color ! just let the fish hone in on the bait by its' sound / vibration using their lateral line only ! that may not be such an off-the-wall idea...yes it is still winter after all... | ||

Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | LOL STUSHSKY! I actually have a few guys buy my unpainted blanks that do just that! They have reported to me they do catch fish on unpainted blanks. | ||

Posts: 86 Location: colorado | James I love your super cisco's and i buy the wild colors you offer. Red hooks and lips are fine bye me. Also don't think the fish mind seeing something different either. my vote keep them Red. | ||

IMHO, clear lips; and the least visible hooks in the water. | |||
