No laughing but this ? came up when looking at new boats this winter. I had a couple #*^@ good guides tell me they prefer white bottom boat hulls when fishing for muskie. 2 guys on different days. ???? I'm color blind and could care less but wanted some opinions.

That's funny! I thought I was the only one that thought this way. I actually prefer a black hull. Does it make a difference? Who knows...

Did these guides have a "bridge" that they wanted to sell you too? haha! My buddy has a Triton 215X with a BLACK hull----and he SLAYS the big skis. As for me, I have a BLACK Princecraft and I have NO PROBLEM boating muskies. Once you go BLACK....... good luck out there---SN

I have mixed thoughts on this subject as my friend has caught numerous fish on a white hull which is almost tan and brown due to age. This past year I've had every follow turn away within about 8ft or so of my new boat which has a nice shiny white hull. All fish hooked have been prior to boatside and this is the only thing I've came up with. Its happened too much to just be a fluke to me.

Wood_Duck - Stop fishing for flukes! Have you tried breath mints?

Have fun!
