Nice contradiction... if your gonna say color doesn't matter then at least be consistent with your argument. Im no color whore but I do believe it is a small variable in the larger scheme of things that is worth experimenting with if fish are not cooperating.

Please explain how this is a "contradiction". Most baitfish have some variable of white on their belly. That, and it's what most people want. Google "contradiction".

last time i checked white is a color... sorry but i do not need to check wikipedia for grade school definitions you might want to go brush up on your vocab. because there is clearly a con-tra-dic-tion in your argument.

I dont think color matters as much as contrast...Like a light or a dark bait. The presentation is also key. I have worked the same color a different way and started catching when I wasnt getting a sniff before.

Chunk what you like but learn different presentations for diff situations....according to bait in the water and whats working that day.....!

Lemme see if I can adjust to your thinking.............

Since white is a color , I contradicted myself by saying that I use it on the bellies of most all lures I paint?

Adjustment FAIL!!!!

I don't do the Gill Net...send him there. Insults show intelligence. I think this is a pretty good topic.....less the undesirables.

And, I also said the reason I use some form of white on the belly is because it's the natural color. I'm not into the "Sexy Shads" and "Spectrums", but, I'll paint 'em any color a customer is willing to pay for.

Contrast matters!!!!!!

With that said I am hitting them with that bone 90% of the time
