Since when did the red maggot become the number one choice?. It used to be, back in the good old days of course, that Bronze maggot ruled the roost. As a switch up, yellow maggot was also effective. One would shun the cheap-skate white maggot, available at "lower end" tackle shops.
Red maggots were OK for Perch, but that was about it and since they rarely exceed 3oz back in the day there was little point.
Even after the bronze dye Chrysodine-R was found to be carcinogenic and got banned i remeber bronze were still very popular. I always used to get 2-3pts of bronze with a few yellows mixed in.
Does it matter? Whats the best colour to use? Anyone tried blue or green maggots?
