Chuck, Thanks for sharing. Yes very interesting. I knew that they could see red and green from some earlier discussions, but the other colors don't show up too much according to the article. I had to review it several times to get the general ideas he was putting forth.

I decided to Google it and found this article.

According to the article then, the chartreuse and white spinnerbait that is one of my favorites is seen as just a dark object. So then we got to think about the blades (color and vibration), time of day, clouds versus sun etc.

Colors point us in a direction, but I think you will agree its not all that simple. As one ole timer told me "time on the water" is the key!!!

Yep. If you aren’t on the water, color don’t matter too much.
