A:
When selecting lure colors for freshwater fishing there are two factors to keep in mind. The first is to "match-the-hatch". To do so, you will need to find baits that mimic color of the prey of the species that you are targeting closely. For instance, when fishing in a large lake with heavy amounts of shad, a silver, black, white, or blue based color (depending on the color of the shad in the lake) would be appropriate to use. If fishing a pond where the main forage may be small bream (such as bluegill) try using a chartruse and white or firetiger color.As well, base the colors that you are using on the water situation that you are facing. If fishing in clear water, lures that have a more subtle or natural color would be great, as this will not spook fish. However, if fishing in water that may be murky or muddy, try using a lure with a lot of flash so that the lure can allow the fish to hone in on it.

I found the red performed the bestDetails:
what has better action, catch more bass etc.Answers
A:
The Slug-go is a true jerk bait and works best with a twitch and pause technique. The Senko is a drop bait that is best used by letting the lure just flutter down naturally after it lands on the water. With both lures it is best to use on a semi-slack line. Watch the line for a tell-tale tick or move to the right or left. Then reel up the slack and set the hook firmly.A:

If could take only one bait fishing ...give me a bag of Slugos!I fish them with just a light off-set hook, no rigging of any kind is needed. And the lighter the line the better the action. I use the 3 and 4 inch for bass and the 3" for trout.
I've had the best luck with the rainbow,
white and black. (When you can find the black.)
Cast them out and let them sink slowly, then retreive with light taps and let them fall again. They look just like a dying bait fish and bass will kill them!
I have found that they out perform any and all other soft jerk baits and most worms.
A:
let me just start off sayin that they are both great baits in my tackle box. but, just gotta tell u that the senko is not a jerk bait. u do not jerk it while reeling in. this bait is meant to be fished slow. u let it fall slowly to the bottom. then lift up slowly and let it drop back down. great bait. senko is a jerk bait and has pretty good action. but, do not buy the 3 inch ones, i made that mistake. they are too small to even texas rig.

I would have to say that the Slug-go has better action. The cut top design allows it to dart wildly about. I also want to point out here, that the Senko had a terrible time staying on my hook. I had an easier time using the Slug-go. This is not to say that the Senko is bad. I still caught fish with it. Just not as many. I was using either Stren 65lb braid or 30lb braid with it.I'm probably going to try it with fluorocarbon as well to see if I can enhance the action. I hope this helps.

What is the best hook size and style for this bait in the 6" variety?Answers
A:
3/0 - 5/0 worm hook, depending on shank length. You want the hook point coming up through the first notch in the slug. Be sure to bury the eye, knot, and crimp if on wire in the slug if you are fishing in weed. May mean a smaller, wider gape hook for wire traces.

At Lunker City they also have the Texposer hook that works well. (there's a chart there of recommended hook sizes for different lengths of slugos)A:
use a 2 or 3 hook both work well. the style that will let the bait last a long time is something with a twist lock oor Mustas ultra point Impacy keeper hooksA:

Slug-Go makes a 4/0 & 5/0 for this. If you check their website, you will see it. The packaging also has the proper hook to use. According to that, a 5/0 is also a great hook to use on this. Right now, since I am out of the Slug-Go hooks, I am using a Gamakatsu 5/0 & the bait works very similar. I would recommend using the Slug-Go version first though. It works the best.
