Which color crankbait can't you live without - red craw or shad color?

Shad, by a mile. I usually lean toward Tennessee shad and gizzard shad patterns with blacks and browns more than sexy shad colors.

For me it’s shad. I like bone white but the sexy shad is nice to. Unless you have a lake where crawfish is the main forage I think shad or baitfish will prevail in most situations.

Shad for here in Florida. Reds in general don't do too well for me.

Default Odd man out

Red craw. Probably because 75% of my cranking is for river smallies and I like banging the crank on the bottom to immitate a craw.
