I go by water clarity, and the sun. Clear water, bright. Dark water, dark. Sunny, bright. Cloudy, dark. Here on my lake there is about 5 deadly colors under docks, but come spring all bets are off when trolling. They may hit one color in the morning then something totally different in the evening, same with day to day. If trolling use different colors on your rods, and change them often, you will notice that one or two of the colors produce more fish, change all to those colors.
I FISH because of the Voices in my tackle box tell me to...
