Mud is the definition of subtle realism — a neutral brown tone that mimics bottom-dwelling forage and crawfish in calm or clear water. It’s one of the best “match-the-bottom” options when fish are skittish and visibility is high.
This color excels for dragging or slow hopping presentations near the lake floor, giving off a natural look that blends seamlessly into the environment. Made with DeLong’s hand-poured, anise-scented soft plastic, Mud is a quiet producer that consistently catches pressured fish in tough conditions.
