[#0000FF]The fire tiger pattern was developed almost a hundred years ago by bass fishermen in the east. It quickly proved to be attractive to many other species and has since been painted on all kinds of hardbaits, spinners and jigs. I have even made some flies in the fire tiger pattern...and have painted plastics in it.
Utah fish of almost all species seem to really like fire tiger. Can't think of any species I have NOT caught on it.
Don't know if you have tried any of the #22...the pale perch. That was my own creation about 10 years ago for Starvation...for the baby perch eaters. It has since proven itself on almost all waters and all species too. Then there is the RCK...Red-Chartreuse-Killer....etc.
I do believe that depth, speed, presentation tactics and other factors often are more important than color. But I have also been reminded (by the fish) that sometimes they want what they want (colors) and you better have it or smell skunk.
