Rare Wiggle Wart Color - Help

[MOsmallies]

Hey Guys,

I know this table rock forum is full of some of the best Wiggle Wart experts around, so I figured this would be a good starting place. I'm trying to find the name (or code) of this color that's no longer made for wiggle warts. I know the bait in this picture isn't a wiggle wart, but it's the exact color I'm trying to find wiggle warts in for a fishing buddy. It was one of his favorite colors and he just broke his last one off an a recent trip. If you can tell me the name of the color, it would really help me in my online searches. If you have any wiggle warts in this color that you're willing to sell, I would definitely be interested. Thanks for any help you can provide!

I had that exact bait pictured but sold it in a lot of lures on BBC (bassboatcentral). It is not a pre-rapala. It was made right after the Rapala take over of Storm. Best bet is Ebay to find those or any discontinued bait for that matter. I believe that is a Storm mid wart but the color eludes me. Check this out to maybe help your search:

Might be this color also...Gold Shad?

In case anyone needs them...

Think there are still 2 or 3 of those colors I don't yet have.

Ya. I was going to start collecting them but after about a year in I figured it was just to hard, too time consuming and in the end....TOO EXPENSIVE. I've seen the Pink Bengal Tiger color go for $300+ dollars alone on Ebay and just about 2 weeks ago a guy had all 4 Bengal Tiger colors (Blue, Green, Pink, Orange) that went as a lot of 4 for like $650 bucks....just crazy. Now I just stick to the fish catching colors and only have about 15 or so left. Mostly craw patterns.

Man at those prices I would just get them custom painted in those exact colors. I'm sure BaitWerks or most decent custom painters could pretty much nail those patterns. But I guess these guys aren't fishing with them, they're just collecting and want the exact originals.

It can be done, no doubt...
