Yeah I know the feeling, but when the fish are spawning or pre- or postspawn they are pretty reliable. If you dangle something in front of a male on the bed he is generally going to hit it regardless of color. Best thing to do is slow down a little and if you catch one or two at a certain depth then the bulk of the fish are probably sitting at that depth. Once you eliminate the water that is unproductive you have half the battle figured out. Color matters a little, but depth is the key most the time. Good luck to you
