Also tell me salty...if color matters less than 5% of the time (since in your opinion 5% is too generous), then why do you paint specialty lures? According to you it only makes sense to paint less that 5% of the baits you paint.

Ok then why paint more than 5% of his topwaters?

I've painted and sold almost 200 of those WalMart "clearance" Spooks. I paint 'em whatever the customer wants. Makes me no difference. Fancy-painted lures catch fishermen and that suits me just fine. And, yes, I was referring to topwater lures, only. |

Two days ago we pulled up to a set of birds and after a few casts the birds left. We were able to follow the school of fish bc they kept hitting bait on the surface. I was throwing an orange xrap and buddy was throwing a spec colored spook. He constantly got 2-3 blow ups per cast i got zero... After a few tries and constantly netting his fish i started using my spec colored mirrordine and instantly started catching fish. Color does matter in some circumstances i believe.

I know switching to a mirrordine doesnt prove anything... But we were both throwing topwater at first but diff colors... They were destoying his... Wouldnt touch mine... There was no time to retie so i just went with the mirrordine i already had tied on.

PRESENTATION....like I posted earlier. |

Id say it matters to an extint pending water clarity the bottom half of the bait for the most part its presentation on how its twitched, ripped, popped, walked, paused, etc etc....they catch our eyes...you tend to have a confidence topwater bait....why....cause youve consistantly caught on that bait before!! Chunk what you like but learn different presentations for diff situations....according to bait in the water and whats working that day.....!

Fine, dude...believe what ya want. Think I'll save myself some effort from now on and just paint the belly of topwater lures and leave the rest like it is. |

It'll catch more than 95% of the fish
