Fluke Colors........

Featured Replies

Thanks guys!!! As for the last post (RoLo's), I'm beginning to beleive that more and more. But why do some colors work better than others?

This is the best way I can explain it:

The only color that can possibly catch a bass, is the color that's on the end of your line.

Conversely, every color that is not on the end of your line has zero chance of catching a bass.

As a result, we have more to do with the color that bass are striking than we might imagine...not the bass.

If one angler is catching bass and the other is not, the wise angler will not waste mental energy thinking about color,

but focus on far more important matters such as Lure Depth, Lure Speed, Lure Action, Lure Size, and Line of Retrieve.

I fish only "bubblegum" flukes because it is highly visible, which gives me an edge on presentation.

agree 110%.  people will say "You HAVE to use xxxxx color here, it's killer".  Why is it killer?   Because that's the color that spends the most time in the water.  Most people will get so caught up in color, that they'll try a color for a few minutes, and if they don't get anything, now that color "sucks".  If they DO catch a fish, now that color works and is amazing.  Any time I hear people talk about what color works and what doesn't, I giggle to myself when I go to my box that has maybe 3 colors of soft plastics out of 100's of baits.
