I like the tiger fire and chartreuse colors or anything with bone in it. I did order two red and chartreuse from bomber last night. I love em if ya throw em next to a grassline and work em out I have real good success. I have lost 2 this past year and in 2010 I lost like 5 due to specs in timbalier. I have caught alot of 2lbs specs off of these in the island areas like philo brice and case-tete.

they have been pulled from my 3 biggest wholesaler's catalogs and if the bomber website doesn't have all the colors, then it's very possible that it's discontinued and they are simply selling off the slower moving colors until they're gone.
