Ran a quick test of the three new freshwater colors that are featured on our Old Goat Lures blog . Since I'm fishing out of a drift-boat, with a small electric trolling motor, I limited my tests to the south end of the lake.

For the first 45 minutes, I fished the green/black-scale with fluorescent orange tail. Nothing touched it.

Since I have a two-rod permit, I decided to fish the new purple/black-scale with orange tail against the red-oxide/fluorescent orange. (The red-oxide has been a go-to color, and lure, for Rock Lake.)

The purple/orange out-fished the red-oxide by a factor of four to one. In about an hour and a half, I was done. Had my limit and was ready to put them on ice.

Here's a short video:
