This is from this week's Inside Line:

Team Yamamoto pro Bob Lester visited the Indiana Boat Show
this weekend. Bob reported on these new trends:

"More than anything else, everything is red. Hooks have been
getting red for some time now, but snaps, split rings,
swivels are red, red, red! Every spinnerbait I saw on the
show floor had red stuff - red skirt strands, small red
front blades, red eyes, red hooks. I think red's become an
overkill and it just may backfire. Too much red may become a
bass repellant by the end of 2005," mused Lester.
