So don't throw away those lures!!

i'm googling it and finding varying answers, depending on who you talk to. some say they can only see color if there is enough light. others say the fisherman are more attracted to the colored lures than the fish are.

Heh, but you kill each cow on the spot, you don't harm them and then let them go to catch them the next day, do you?....

Here's the link i used....it was an all around the bases on eyesight, fish, mammals,etc...pretty interesting.

fish are color blind.

Most birds and fish actually have excellent color vision. Fish actually have quite good color vision and most have three types of cones like humans do. Some deep water fish that live very deep in the water do not see that well though but then there is not very much light. With so little light no organism would see well regardless of how many types of cones it had. In fact a fish known as the skate, is the only confirmed animal that truly sees in black and white (Fig 4).

Fig 4. A skate, the only animal whose eye contains no cones and therefore only sees in black and white.
This means that different colored fishing lures probably do play a large rule when trying to catch fish. For example, chartreuse is a common color of fishing lure, but it also is in the middle of most fishes color range so there is good reason to use a chartreuse lure when fishing. Goldfish actually see a wider range of color than human do. That is because goldfish have four different cone types, one of which can detect ultraviolet light invisible to humans.

whatever.

well this is awkward...

Fly's only work with a fly fishing rod.The line is the weight for casting and floats when it hits the water.
When bottom fishing you will always hang up once in a while.The trick is to cast it out and not move it till you reel it back in.Moveing the bait when it is on the bottom will pull your bait under rocks and into branches.
When useing a bobber and live bait use the smallest bobber that will not sink with the weight you are useing.This will also show the small nibbles better than a big bobber.Watch the bobber for any movement,many times it will move sideways and not ever bob up and down.
I wish i had the cash value of all hooks,sinkers,plastic jigs and crankbaits i have lost.OPH

not nessacaryly i've used flys on my spinning rod an i was fishing at a lake to,put the fly on added about 1.5-2ft gap between the sinker an fly,wasnt in a boat but on land,i surprising caught more fish than my dad who was using worms...an he said i wasn't going to catch anything XD

What the hell is that thing! Its fucking massive! whered you catch that?

Hippoglossus stenolepis (AKA Pacific Halibut), caught in the Gulf of Alaska about 2 miles from our house. Typically we don't keep the 100+ fish, but when the ladies catch the bigen its mandatory.
#270, 175 & chickens.
A good day.

yea theres a diffrience between lures that attract fish and ones that attract fisherman.

2 miles!? Thats so sick. You must catch some insane Kings up there...

This is what a lake Ontario Chinook looks like....

Forget the exact weight, but was some in the 20-23lb range

 

[fdd2blk]

[Cannabolic]

i wanna move out by the great lakes. i heard there are some crazy muskies out there. east coast fishing sux unless ur in some really good stocked waters

 

[GreatwhiteNorth]

Nice looking fish guys - We didn't get to go out today as the wind was up above the comfortable range.
One more pic. You know you've had a good day butt fishing when your ears are ringing (from the gun fire).
Peace

FDD and Cracker....

You're going to hate me but ... you're both right... Fish are not color blind yet most of them cannot distinguish most colors. (some exceptions apply)

Look at your lights... What's the tempreture of the color of your lights? Those spectrum specific bulbs that you spend a ton of money on, they are the wavelengths of light that the plant reacts to the best, bla bla bla.

Hows this apply to fishing? Wavelengths dissapear in water sequentially. The deeper in water you are, the more light dissapears and that increasing darkness is the loss of each spectrum. That's why there's red and yellow and green fising lines out there, beacuse depending on depth you want your line to be invisible to the fish, so you fish a color that at that depth is invisble. A trout is going to see more color than a grouper because of the depth at which they live, their eyesight has very little to do with it.

So yes, most fish are not color blind, but most fish cannot see most color spectrums because of environment.

Went fishing yesterday and had this lil beauty out!

 

[juststartin]

didnt work

 

[GrowTech]

Do fish see color, are fish color blind

says more along the lines that 'fish have no preference to any certain color'

who cares though... doesn't matter if you catch anything as long as you smoke up and have a good time

When I was a kid I wouldn't even bait my hook. I just enjoyed being in the boat with my dad.

 

[fdd2blk]

they make clear lures.

 

[skiskate]

When I was a kid I wouldn't even bait my hook. I just enjoyed being in the boat with my dad.

Sometimes when I was a kid I was too lazy to re-bait my hook so id just relax and nap with my line in the water. One day I hooked a pike with absoloutely nothing on the line, just a leader and hook while still fishing. Prolly only like 12 inches but still a surprise.

 

[Louis541]

One time when I was really young, I cast my line in the water and no sooner did I get comfortable I get something. I cast it in and it's a maybe 7 inch rock fish (IDK WTF that is, I was like, 7 and that's what my friend told me it was.) When I reel it in, the hook had went right into it's forehead. Swear to ya. I to this day will never forget that. It was fuckin wierd.
