Pen, born that way. To me It's no big deal, like Clacker said above you learn to adapt. One funny thing is you're told a green light meant go. It always had looked "white to me. lol

Green is seen as brown and brown as green, most colors like purple are blue, In fact what I see as blue might be pink.lol I see blue in most pinks. a maroon looks black.(I once bought a pair of cowboy boots I thought were black. They turned out to be maroon, I was motified.lol) There's more but I think you get the Idea.

I might have had a thought or two about my color blindness but for the most part It's not been an Issue. I simply see some colors different than most and It's never hampered my ability to catch fish. The reason I started this was a little blurb I saw in the latest Bassmaster magazine that showed a tweet from Casey Ashley saying he liked copper lenses on his sunglasses because he see's the fish better due to his colorblindness. I thought It Interesting in that It's something new and I've never seen color blindness mentioned in any publication I've read. That's not to say It hasn't, I'm merely saying I haven't seen it. A few things I do to make sure I know the exact color of a particular bait. 1. I keep all soft plastics in the original package and often times re-label them with the color. 2. I try to mark all the crankbaits with the depth written just below the bottom of the lip(thanks Glenn) along with a mark to note the bait company's color or name. The majority I simply remember. I also keep the back of the package with a date and color written on each. 3. In the end I don't stress or worry about it other than when I order some baits that have different names other than the color I usually ask my wife about it. I thought It would be Interesting to hear what others do or If this, for the most part, Is a non-Issue.

The Norman website has a deep baby n in the color Tilapia. It's one of my confidence baits that you will not find anywhere but that site!

I've been buying some discontinued Rebel deep and wee r's. Rebel was one of the first crankbaits I used when I started bass fishing back in '80. The baits I'm most excited about are the three packages of Rebel ringworms new In the package and the naturalized perch and the naturalized double deep. These crankbaits are as close to mint as I've seen.. Enjoy:

I know posting a personal best Is always fun. I know posting about slaying them Is always fun. I know sometimes just getting out is always fun. So this post Is not about a personal best or absolutely slaying the bass nor Is It about merely getting out. Yesterday(Mothers day) I had the opportunity to take my wife, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law out to a new found private pond to catch some bream. I took my bass rod to chase some of those green fish but made a total of 5 casts. In what I would call a very satisfying day I helped, watched, and smiled at watching these three Southern women catch bream after bream and having a great time! I was as content as could be just taking It all In. It brought back many memories of a simpler time when all the fancy gear consisted of a cane pole and some crickets. I have always said the best day I have had on the water was watching my wife break her personal best three times on our honeymoon last year. That's still the best day I have ever had but yesterday was fairly close. To watch that type of enthusiasm refreshing and a day that I hope we repeat often in the years to come!
