Have you ever fished with black soft plastics or lures and had any success? I created a video of a 90-minute fishing challenge during the week only using black soft plastics. The video can be seen at https://youtu.be/xeQ8IarAFGQ - if you enjoy the video then please subscribe to the channel

Basically, I’ve been getting asked a lot lately if Black soft plastics and lures work, so I set out in my small runabout boat to test this out. I fished at Port Phillip Bay around the area of Black Rock using only black soft plastics and had great results. We didn’t catch any monsters but we caught plenty of them including a few juvenile snapper up to 48cm.

We fished during the peak of high tide using only 5cm pro grubs in UV black with 1/8 jig heads and light spin rods. We caught plenty of pinkies and a couple of flatties. I hope you enjoy the video and please don’t forget to sub the channel.
