Orange / Gold Shad Dart

Warm-colour rotation

ShadSubsurface

A warm-toned dart for tea-stained, lightly coloured or evening water — more visible than pearl in colour without becoming fluorescent.

Fish this when

Tea-stained rivers, warm light, slightly coloured flows. A rotation colour when the standard darts have been worked through.

Why it works

Gold and orange remain visible in warm-toned water where cold-blue pearl can disappear.
