I own tons of different color flashers, but until recently black was one I'd really never used. I tried them when I went over to Port Renfrew at the beginning of Sept. To my surprise black was the color that had the most action. I was not fishing that deep, most fish were in the 60' range. The Oki black Chum Special flasher worked very well. I caught mature springs, feeder springs, and coho on it.
I initially threw it out for a lark with a small chartreuse mini hoochie and started banging feeder sporings. I experimented with other hoochies and landed a 20 lb spring and coho as well (no chums though).
Who uses black flashers with success. What situations and depths do you usually use them. What species do you usually target with them. Is this just a west coast thing or does black produce on the inside as well. Do you strip the tape from them, or paint old scratched flashers black?
Any comments appreciated regarding different or customized flashers that have worked for you.
