NED-Stick • Rotten-Banana • 8-pack
Dirty yellow signal for cloudy water and grass.
Rotten-Banana is not a fine-tuning color for perfectly clear water. It is a tool for dirtier water, grass, clouds and situations where a small bait needs to be seen more clearly without becoming completely neon-clean.
Cloudy Grass Dirty signal Overcast DOWN Rig
Why Rotten Banana Should Be in the Box
The dirty yellow-green feel makes the color visible but more subdued than pure chartreuse. It's a good combination when the water is colored but the fish are still wary.
On NED rigs it becomes extra useful because the signal is in a small, slow profile.
Problem Neutral colors disappear, but pure neon can feel too harsh.
Solution Dirty yellow signal that is visible in colored water but can still be fished with finesse.
Buy it to cover cloudy, grassy, and overcast days with a more controlled signal selection.
Quick choice by the water
- Best when cloudy water, vegetation, overcast weather, after rain and colored bays.
- Species Perch in grass and bays, pikeperch near the bottom in colored water.
- Bottom Grass, mud, mud, dark sand and sheltered bays.
- First, avoid super clear water with shy fish in strong sunlight.
This is how you fish it
- Fish it in grass holes, murky pockets and dark edges.
- Use short strokes so the color is visible but the bait doesn't drag away.
- Pause for a long time after bottom contact.
- If you're getting followers but no hits, switch to something more natural.
Color logic
Yellow-green colors may be easier to spot in many colored waters, but a dirtier tone provides less of a shock effect than pure neon.
Rotten-Banana strikes the smart compromise between visibility and acceptance.
CNW Recommendation Choose Rotten-Banana when the water is ugly but the fish still require finesse.
