      I don't give a rip about matching colors or colors in general when it comes to tackle (not including terminal tackle). If someone wants coordinated colors to match their fishing attire or anything els

      Look good, feel good. Feel good, fish good.

      Totally a personal preference deal.   I think I'm sort of old school in that I look at my fishing gear as "tools"    So bright colors are generally a turn off for me.   Just like a bright Orange

    I enjoy these threads. They seem to be able to make everybody mad.

    If I have a rod or reel sitting around and it needs a partner, I'll look for similar colored mates. If I don't find one to my liking, I won't sacrifice price or performance for the sake of a nice looking combo. This problem has mostly been alleviated for me by going custom. Get performance and make it look any way you like.

    Just like a bright Orange Hammer or a Green Crescent Wrench.

     

    They'd work fine, but I just would not enjoy using them.

    Actually I like my tools to be so butt ugly that nobody would even consider stealing them.  As far as rods/reels, they get oh so much prettier with a 5lb smallie hanging from them.

    Never thought of doing it, and I probably never will. Not sure if this is ssmewhat related, but I don't really like too much color on or foam on reels. It looks like a kid's toy.
