Favorite colors for plastics?

For me I am partial to a few different colors of plastics depending on the body style.

For senko types, I love the Red Shad laminates and the watermelon colors.

For minnowjerks, I like white/silver combos or a chartruese for fishing stained water.

Jig trailers are black, dark brown, or green, depending on the jig color.

For the classic curl tail worm, love red shad as well. I like the pumpkin and watermelon colors in worms too. I have also had good results with tomatoe colored worms under certain conditions.

Grubs are more of a water/weather condition factor for me, and usually go with more natural colors with them, though for a spinnerbait trailer, I love chartruese.

I haven't used any of the beaver-style baits yet, but I would think my first pack of them will be either dark brown or black.

What are your prefered colors for soft plastics?

Like you said, it does depend quite a bit on body style, and for me water clarity. I have a lot of confidence in a few colors... junebug, watermellonseed/red flake, black/blue, pumpkinseed. Those are the colors I seem to reach for the most and or varieties of those colors.

I tend to deviate the most with soft plastic jerkbaits. Which Itend to throw a lot of whites, golds, pinks/greens.
