All depends on water color. Typically the dirtier the water the more vibration is needed. Clearer water the flash is more important. Muddier water I would recommend a colorado blade as they throw off more vibration. Hope this was helpful. Tight lines!
"a Colorado blade as they throw off more vibration." So true. I used to use Colorado's exclusively just because of the additional vibration.
Then, one day, when they were not working, I put on a willow blade and they hit the heck out of that. I thought that maybe, on that day, the extra vibration was putting them off. They wanted something more subtle. Darn bass are as finicky as women.
