Hit the Roanoke today in search of Hickory Shad. Caught a few on Chartreuse grubs but the bite was slow for everyone except for 1 guy using a pink spoon. Now I don't normally use spoons as they costs too much but i did have some pink grubs. I retied Tony's, my sons, and my line with pink and the bite was on. Tony caught his first ever Shad and my son and I caught maybe 20-25 apiece.
It also pays attention to "spy" on other anglers sometimes. I didn't see anyone else switch to pink so I guess they just either weren't looking or didn't have pink.
A few pictures.
A nice day on the Roanoke,
