I am looking for a good pink braid to punch with. I also use pink Gliss on my Aldebaran. I do prefer pink lures for panfish. I have a tiny pink X Rap that does work along with a variety of other baits like CD-1s and grubs.
Do you like Megabas Griffons? The hot pink Baby Griffon slays panfish even though it is a bit big. Every time I throw that thing it gets clobbered by big bluegills.
I never used the Griffons. As far as panfish cranks go, I like the body types of the Rapala UL Series, CD-1, Jackall Timon PaniCra, and the tiny X-raps.
The Panicra is my favorite. The barbless single hooks are a dream when fishing for gills. The lure comes through the weeds pretty good and the barbless single hook comes out of the fishes mouth no problem.

I've fished the shallow silent griffons. I've tinkered & tuned that thing to the point I can make it jump out of the water every 10ft or so. Trick little crank, but damned if I've ever caught anything with it. I still have faith that it's a good bait though... kinda like that scene from The ghost & the darkness movie, when he builds that trap, and the other guy asked him "did it work?", and he replies "in point of fact it didn't. But Im convinced the theory is sound".

I had been wanting to dress my 9.1 Zillions in pink for over a year, but Hedgehog seemingly is never going to replenish stock on the pink handle nut retainer/screw. I decided to go for it anyway....I'll just keep an eye out for the pink handle hardware.
