| I agree with Lee, white can be very effective too. John | |||

| One more thing... I am a firm believer that color is the least important factor- to the fish at least. John | |||

John - 4/24/2010 7:21 PM One more thing... I am a firm believer that color is the least important factor- to the fish at least. John If that's the case, then you must only have one color in your tackle box. Why bother buying more than one color of any bait if color is the least important factor and of little consequence? What's the most important factor, John? Bait size? Action? I'm perplexed. | |||

| When all else fails throw black! When someone tells you they have a secret bait you know it's got to be black. Good Fishing, Scott M. P.S. Take a variety of black baits on your next trip. | |||

I just voiced my opinion that color is the least important factor in catching muskies. If you believe otherwise that is your opinion- which you are entitled to. John | |||

Posts: 32958 Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | PSYS, I also feel color is not the most important factor when considered the way most Muskie anglers look at it. Black is always visible, and is, as such, always effective. Since color defines contrast and contrast defines how well the fish sees the lure, however, I look to offer the most contrast possible, therefore opting for the old axiom 'dark day, dark lure, light day, light lure' unless fishing jigs. If you look in my tackle box, you will see most of my favorites have black somewhere in the pattern. | ||
