Yes, different species like different coloured maggots. For roach, eels and chub, you can't beat bronze imo but for carp and bream, red seem best.
Wasn't it Dave Thomas that died of cancer. His wife blamed the fact that he used too many bronze maggots and when he went to pee put the dye onto him and that caused the cancer. That is why chrysodine is theoretically banned from use these days. However, nothing else touches it for dying maggots and if your hands go orange, then you can be sure chrysodine is the culprit.
