With any blades you will find golds, silvers, shrimp patterns, blacks and browns will work good on their day.

These are the only blades I don not buy. Im not a fan of the shape and I bought a few a while ago and they bent easy and got rusty quick. They may be better now

Cheers
Chris

Possibly the most under rated blade out there in my view. Not quite as tangle proof as some but you'll find they are sneaking in to more and more tackle boxes. There's a few big names out there who won't tell you they're using them!

I have found the Bigeyes to be a very productive blade..

I personally like swapping the hardware to stinger style hooks in lieu of the Trebles.. This makes them more snag resistant..

Most of the colors are effective..

Big Eyes work, and they have a point of diff with other blades in that that have a rattle chamber. Different sounds may be a trigger on given circumstances.
Dont think Ive used a blade that doesnt work, but some do tangle easier than others.
