Anybody fish Eufaula regularly? I know that the only color worm ever to
be used is green pumpkin(with & without chartreuse tail) and the only
spinnerbait to be used is white (with and without chartreuse mingled in
the skirt), but I'd still like to ask what the best color is for this
lake. So how about them opinions?
The late Tom Mann was speaking of Eufaula when he told me, "You'll catch
'em on any color worm you own here, as long as you only own blue worms."
Of course that was in 1977, so maybe the fish have forgotten how to bite
blue in the interim. But when I was there again nearly 25 years ago, I
fished with one of them 'local hero' types, and he used nothing but
black/blue fleck powerworms. That was late summer, and I schooled him
using a heavy jig in deep water. Black with a brown and blue plastic
chunk.
I'm not certain if it's the same story but if so then I believe he suggested
the blue worm because that's what he was making while others did not. Not
only was he a great fishermen, he was also a savy salesman because he knew
his clients well. Kinda like the oldage- "takes one to know one".
