In the fall at the James River Bridge white with some pink usually is a hot color for the stripers.

I have tested alot of colors in the James and Appomattox rivers over the last 15 years. What I found is, mostly it depends on lighting conditions.

As a general rule with soft or hard baits chartruse, something with a golden color or believe it or not orange has out-fished anything else I've used.

Although the bottom line is use what you have confidence in. No confidence in a lure results in not so good results.

4" and 5" storm wildeyes in mullet, pinfish, bunker and croaker. Bring a few extras - blues love them too.

I like the 5inch fins in bubble gum Ice color.I also like the split tail bass assasins in chickenbone and mullet color.
