[QUOTE="WTM, post: 5682353, member: 6230"] contrast and shape. all colors are black or not visible most anything around 20ft.(except some of the extremely clear lakes). darker tannic water white and chartreuse will have more contrast. light muddy water dark and chartreuse has more contrast. in shallower water bass and other sunfish see the middle color spectrum best most likely: [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_1409.png"]188728[/ATTACH] light reds to green. they cant tell the difference between blue and black and some of the deeper reds probably look black. red looks black around 15-20 ft where the light fades. on a lighter bottom in shallow water a darker bait will have more contrast and vice versa. when the sun/full moon is out a blue or black will have better contrast against the lighted surface water. then you have fish memory of being caught by a certain color. they may avoid a certain color if theyve been caught and released, or they may hit a color they havent seen better than others. in deep water 25ft plus they most likely rely on vibration and smell more than anything.
