If you could only take five grub colors(non gulp) what would they be? What's your top 5. Mine is Pinfish, Electric Chicken, Candy corn, Chicken bone, and my favorite White w/pink curly tail.

I like Chartruse the others mentioned are fine.
we have used a yellow with pink tail and white with pink tail shrimp rootbeer at times.
If I could only take one grub I promise it would be one you said couldn't be on the list. White or glow gulp.

Just keeping scent out of the equation.

I use gulp too. But I have had days when they would not touch a gulp but would nail a grub.

I see Tom likes Glow.

Electric Chicken, Candy Corn, New Penny, Truese Goose, and Chicken Bone. Throw in Glow for good measure.

Ok, Chartreuse if I have to.
And sparkle pink, because Cobia say so.

What I use and why, for what it’s worth:
I want my plastics to act like bait fish. They need to suspend like a good hard bait.
My favorite way to accomplish this is to use a 1/16oz jig (heavy hook,wide gap) with
a Strike King Redfish Magic Zulu Soft Bait Body (the old 3X Strong that hard salt in them). I use straight tails. They are buoyant and suspend level with a 1/16 oz jig. These will stretch 2 feet and you almost never have to replace them, even with Blues & Spanish. Wally usually only has white but other colors are available.
