Anything red, they just seem to attract whiskered barra


Fish stories told here....some true !!!

yeah, don't like red much either
If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!

Especially when you can see them!

As a red head its a good colour but not red as a predominant colour. I love red gills or stress lines but hate it as asole colour or predominànt colour.

I know for soft plastics the Nuclear Chicken patter used to outfish all comers followed by plain white. never had luck with blue. hard bodies I like green through yellow through orange with darker colours on top.
