Warren, It is very red. Hot red. Christmas red. You get the idea! I
thought it was a gimmic but had to try, I am very gullible when it comes to
fishing tackle/equipment. Always have to try new/neat stuff I find. I was
one of those that got the Helicopter lure that Roland was hawking. But I
must truthfully say that the Cajun line worked and worked well for
monofiliment applications. It is still on my spinning rig for skipping
senkos.

Chuck,
I know that the hook seems to stand out from your perspective, but from
my
experiences the fish will be more receptive to changes in the line
versus
hooks. I have unscientifically tested the red hook craze sweeping the
nation and from my humble experiences it mattered not at all. What did
matter was the type of hook, ie 2/0 G-Lock wide gap gammi on a 4" Senko
is
my go to bait in my local clear water lakes. The fish did not seem to
care
if it was red or black, at least as far as catching them was concerned.
Where as the line color in these lakes was a major factor. Green-line,
no
fish. Braided-line, no fish. Clear fluro-coated P-line, Fish On!
Flurocarbon, Fish On! Berkley XL Clear line, Fish On! and suprising
enough
to me I tried some Cajun Red Line and to my suprise, Fish On! A picture
is
worth a 1000 words so here is a link

All non-superlines were 8 pound test. The braid was 2 pound - diameter.
Just my humble experiences, your mileage may vary.

CR,

Bob is right on with the red hook. This is what I switch to in
clear
water.
Also black nickel works good. Also I would switch from lo-vis green
mono to
straight P-Line Fluorocarbon or Seaguar Carbon Pro. These steps
have
improved my success in clear water, so I can personally vouch for
it.

Good luck and keep us up to date on how you do.

I like the idea of the red hook. I was also thinking of painting the
hook to match the bait I'm using. It just seems like the hook is WAY
more visible than the line. I have to look real close to see the line,
even in a couple inches of really clear water. The hook, however,
sticks out like a sore thumb. Switching to flourocarbon seems like
ordering a diet pepsi to go with your triple cheeseburger, in my most
humble and uninformed opinion.

That being said, I'll certainly try the fluorocarbon if I can't good
results on the mono.

Thanks!

Chuck.
