I sent todd an email but haven't heard back yet

in the mean time I ordered some of the Offshore Angler™ Scamper™ Shrimp to use

seen here: http://www.basspro.com/Offshore-Angl.../product/8371/

not sure how much the fish care about the difference in having legs and eyes but they do seam to like the clear red glitter combo and IMO, in the water it does look the same color as live real brown shrimp

I got some rootbeer with old glitter that im hoping has a sorta close look to a real brown shrimp

I use white and chartrouse as well in stained water but in clean water I think a real natural looking color is the best choice.

I will buy some TKO to try out but the thing is, im looking for 25 cent each plastic body baits not $1 a piece TKO even though they are a much better deal then $2 a piece DOA.

they look the same as DOA so im sure the hooks will pull out of them after 2 or 3 fish as well. the body lasts long but the hook wont stay in them for nothing so its hard to justify spending $1 a piece for a body you have to add a jig head to.

I find it very odd that the Offshore Angler™ Scamper™ Shrimp offer such a limited number of colors since they are good shrimp imitations just without the eyes and legs which I doubt if the fish really see well enough to even care about
