That leads me to the next question,it seems like the color craze leans toward the brighter eye appeal colors,what say ye?
In one demonstration,a fellow had 4 containers filled with different textures of stained water.In his demo,the bright colors showed well in clear water,but diminished quickly in each stain of water.The darker lures,all showed well,and actually seemed to improve the more stained the water became as far as contrast .
With that said,logically it appears the more natural colored the lure is,the better the appeal.Im not wanting to stir the pot,I'm just saying what I've kinda always thought,I've never seen too many naturally bright colored live baits out there,wouldn't it be prudent to say,the natural colored baits have more appeal to the fish,and the brighter colors have more appeal the the fishermen? .......
