ALL my best glo bugs are at least two colors. Best two color combinations for me are illiamna/cerise dot, illiman/hot pink dot, chartruse/blue dot.

The best glo bug for steelhead IMO is the jerry garcia aka dennis rodman. It's basically 4 or 5 different colors, my favorite is Hot pink/blue/cerise/illiman/cream
