one company says their red line is invisible in the water and fish cannot

lying. Any imput would be appreciated.

Well here are the facts
Red is the first color that you loose as you go deeper,, fish nor humans
can see red down so far,, but it does not go invisible, it just turns to
a shade of gray, perhaps fish can still tell something is red,, just
because it is a different shade of gray.

The line companies are in a way lying, although the fish don't see their
red line, as red at depth, the line is not invisible

Red lures and lures having red on them, have been very productive for
many years, so it must help.

Red hooks have caught more fish when fished on the same line (same bait,
in front of the same fish, at the same time,) with other color hooks.
