Oh, and YES... there is a reason for the color choices. Let's see if anyone can figure out why those exact colors were used in each section..

Just hoping the blade turns.

Reason for the colors? Hmmm...I bet I don't get a guess do I?

I can see two or three fish gang-tackling that one. Glad I ordered black! m

ps - if you can work in a red stringer on mine, that would be cool, too. thanks.

UPDATE: I just got my Big A-ROZ 16 Incher (BARSI?) in the mail today. Wow! Three sets of dressed trebles (I like the glitter strips) and two silver fluted blades. Should be a killer, now I have an excuse to visit trophy waters! Thanks so much, you do good work. m

Got to throw the thing pictured in this thread last night. Looks real good in the water. Had a LM follow it up but didn't eat it, probably too scared!! Pulls alot easier than you would think, the glow beads are a big plus, and anytime it flew out of the boat within eyeshot of anyone else and they saw it, it definately turned a few heads.

Lets see, I am guessing the first section is a viking and a packer stuck together followed by a packer fan, followed by john elway. Am I right?

Contrasting colors, opposite sides of the color wheel

Should provide visibility in all light conditions and in all colors of water

Ding ding ding!!!! Congrats... you don't win anything but at least you were able to figure out why those colors were chosen. Those are all complimentary colors from opposite sides of the color wheel.... nice job EA!!

They can see this thing too...high sun, blue skies, calm conditions. Had two fish take a solid look on Friday afternoon, one in the upper 40's just missed the back hook. Something is telling me it should be just a touch bigger. On a side note, a 22 1/2 inch largemouth ate the pink/green section.

A touch bigger you say... :-). Maybe a fourth section should be added? That would probably catch even bigger bass... lol.
