Funny about that Nomad, Best producer for me has been a silver/white 4'' in drop bear pattern, most of the silver in patches now but still gets belted regularly no matter what water clarity.nomad wrote:I've often wondered why bait fish (and the vast majority of fish) are silver.
You would think that throughout evolution, fish would have adopted the best colour to avoid being eaten.
So then, why don’t silver lures work better than all others?
Next best is a Little Lucifer in the same pattern.
Gold mirror anything.
Bomber in green kryptonite.
River Rat red/blue/silver.
SPs Bozo mullet..
Drop bear.
mongrel pink/blue/white.
Like everyone else, trays of lures that did the job in the tackle shop..no further input required.. except to look good in the box.
