I've come from the bass world so I love throwing top water, but I have to say that specs are a different kind of animal. I always have a hard time trying to decipher what color they want. I've tried many natural colors as well and cant seem to get my confidence up with them. My favorite lure so for has been a solid white skitterwalk for specs. I prefer to throw topwater when there is some ripple on the surface and its an overcast day. I think a darker colored top water would be better on an overcast day, but I haven't found the right combination in color in the skitter walk. Corky has a sweet black/orange color combo that I wish skitterwalk had. I didn't buy the corky since it has barely any rattle to it, but I do like how they are soft and fish may come back for a second hit. I'm still debating going spend $8 on that darn corky.
