the bass, for the bass are going to see the lure extremely well and in vivid colors.
· Alternatively, when fishing in clear water use vivid colors that may cause a reaction
strike or tweak a bass's curiosity. White, bubble gum, yellow, pink and merthiolate are colors
that are often used to induce reactive strikes. (Your author fishes a merthiolate-colored
floating worm a lot.)
· Use shades of yellows, greens and olive when fishing in greenish, dingy water.
· When fishing soft plastic, use translucent baits in clear water and opaque baits in
dingy or muddy water. · When fishing with soft plastics, use brightly colored and
reflective metal flake on sunshiny days and use pepper-flaked baits on
cloudy days and in low light conditions.
· When fishing at night or in deep turbid water, color is of little importance so you
might as well use dark (black is best) lures and create the best possible silhouette</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/8803B5CE-0F8E-4E75-88AF-136A32A20970/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
