red, charteuse, gold, black, bronze is all just for the fisherman and not the fish?

I never felt that hook color makes a difference. Like you stated it is for the fisherman not the fish.
If it gives one confidence in the hook because of the color then you will fish harder and longer so they just might make a difference.
nope
I say maybe just might if it is a gold shiny hook. Dropped an empty in the water one day to reach for something and thump it went. Fish struck the flash of the hook

:popcornI am waiting for the guru's opinions too. I have the best luck with bronze and black. Black nickel always on my jig hooks, can't say why except I seem to catch more on black nickel.
I believe a huge percentage of terminal tackle catches at least as many fisherman as fish. The differences are probably more psychological than real. I know I have bought plenty of stuff just because I liked the look of it. Later on I either swore by it or swore at it.

I am not a believer in specific colors of heads, feathers , bodies and certainly not hooks . But if it gives you confidence then go for it .:twocents
I have actually caught bluegill on a little gold hook when they were beddingQuote:

I’ve poured a few thousand red hooks into jigs and after using a lot of them I don’t think it much matters. Those days when they want flash it may but I won’t swear to it. A red hook has to be gold plated first to make it bright and as the red gets scratched off you get a gold hook anyway. I like the black nickel cuz I think the extra coating makes em a bit more durable.
