I'd get three colours:
1. White. Just plain white. Always a proven performer.
2. Nuclear Chicken or some other kind of 'chicken' colour in the Gulp colour range.
3. Some natural colour like Smelt or Sardine or whatever. I do like Peppered Prawn as well. In super clear water sometimes you have to be pretty realistic to get a bite.

I take it you're chasing snapper?

If you're doing an arvo go thursday, otherwise I'd go friday for the late morning high tide - pretty low swell and barely any wind, and it's due to be ovecast. That said, if you're a wimp and need the sun on your face maybe thursday is a better option :rolling laughter:. Lol
:luck:
