[cool][#0000ff]Don't be coloring any of those live minnows at Yuba or your face will be "colored" when a DWR officer catches you "red-handed".[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I can see a potential value for fishing live bait in clear waters, where predators often key in on injured baitfish or ones that stand out because they look different. But, for fishing dead bait in murky water...like at Utah Lake...I suspect that the smell factor of the natural bait would play a greater role in attracting fish than the color.[/#0000ff]
