om... I'm looking for ways to improve my success in clear water. I've switched to low-vis green 6lb mono and smaller lures. I was looking at my 4" texas rigged senko, sitting there in about 6 inched of water and it occurred to me that the real problem is the big, ugly, metallic hook sticking out. What about painting it a more natural color? Maybe hiding it somehow? Any ideas? Chuck. How about going the other way? Maybe a bright red Daichi worm hook. -- Bob La Londe Yuma, Az http://www.YumaBassMan.com Promote Your Fishing, Boating, or Guide Site for Free Simply add it to our index page.

At least it will look like something besides metal. |

![]() CR wrote in message om... Not a bad idea. At least it will look like something besides metal. Just my gut feelings here, but what's wrong with metal? I don't think the bass knows the difference between soft plastic and metal. YOU do, of course. How many millions of bass have been caught in clear water with dangling trebles, split rings, spinnerbait arms and the like? |
