Not trying to overthink it, but I have a fantastic red winter jacket for skying that I wanted to wear under my waders, and it got me thinking.

What would be the ultimate stealthy gear color for fishing.

Knowing that pink/red get absorbed by water anywhere between 4 and 15feet of depth. Would it be actually a good idea to be dressed in all red/pink? Or should we stick to dark/camo/matching surrounding colors?

I don't think I've ever seen red or pink waders

Can't go wrong with earth tones and muted colors. I have seen very light pink women's waders.
