Great color for a lot of farm ponds. I fish with them fairly often.

Old school color and yes, it still catches fish. I've caught a lot in clear water on them.

Reb is right that is an old school color, and a good one at that. Used to catch a ton of fish on it, for some reason just got away from throwing it.

I still throw them every once in a while. Good color that I've caught fish with over the past 30 years.

Nice thing about the old school colors and lures is the current bass swimming in our lakes and ponds probably haven't ever seen them, so what is old to us is, to the fish, new. I'll give you an example: The other day I was digging around in the attic and found some old Slug-os and Mister Twister Slimy Slugs. Pulled them out and out them in the boat, part for nostalgia, part because they will be new to the fish.
