We might as well have this topic on a rolling basis updated as needed.

Cabela's has a limited assortment of colors on sale for $2.99.

They had some listed a week or so ago,but not sure about what size they were. I'm sure they'll get them in again. Disco perch is the only color that didn't catch squat for me out of 6+ times trying it. Outbreak was a good one,but not available now.

I'm also having trouble with the scheels search function which is needed to find all their exclusives. Clicking on scheels outfitters tab won't reveal some of them. Entering Scheels flickershad into the search bar usually shows more colors.

I have been tearing up the walleye and Perch on the 5cm Flicker minnows at my locals reservoirs. Went to BPS yesterday to get a few more colors of the minnows and BPS has their version of the flicker shad flooding the shelves right next to the Berkely's. I picked up a few colors like Psycho Perch, Tennesee Shad, and a Pink Lemonade. Curious to try them out

Yea, those are it. I could have sworn the ones I had say 8' diving depth. I will have to check. I was so tempted to buy a chitload of them, but I want to check the action first. Some of the subtle differences I noticed were the O ring on the eye loop is more rectangular if that makes sense. And the front hook has the offset barb so that it wont come into contact with the belly

Haven't checked in the last couple days, but scheels has some exclusive colors in sale for 2.99 and multi packs for 7.99 I think. Free shipping, no minimum. I picked up fire perch, kryptonite perch, Nordic perch, and racy mouse the other day. Like usual, they're out of stock on hot perch, disco perch, etc. Not even sure if they're making them anymore? I badly need a new disco perch but can't find one anywhere

I haven't caught anything with disco perch. Kryptonite kicked some saugeye butt last season. Outbreak is the color that I'm seeking. Hard to find the cabelas tenn shad too.

What size you run? If you want to sell/trade me a disco perch, let me know. I have just about every color/size. No outbreak though. I have tn shad, fire perch, hot perch, etc
5 cm has been hot for me last 2 seasons. I only have a couple 2 or 3 of the disco perch. Hot colors seem to vary year to year. 2 seasons ago party perch did most of the damage. Last season,it only caught 1 but it was the biggest one of the season going 26".3 seasons ago it was the year of the killer chrome clown but it didn't do squat 2 years ago.

It's amazing how colors seem to go in and out of style for eyes. Disco Perch worked great for me when they came out, and I figured you would light them up on it. Certain lakes seem to have one or two that work well year after year. Everything else seems to go in spurts day to day. Atwood, for example, has always been a gold lake for me. Whether it's spoons, blades, cranks or whatever. There have been days when the saugeye bite was great on gold spoons, but switch to chrome and all you could catch were white bass and and the occasional catfish. Water clarity and other conditions play a big role, but it's weird that 2 baits can have the same basic contrast , visibility and action, but only one will produce on a given day.
