] Fishhound I'm gonna lean on you till I get this straight.
Color, sixe and shape depend on the local water conditions?
OK, it's pretty dark down at 20 feet.
On a gray cloudy day with the fish looking up at a lure, wouldn't we want an absoluty black Jig with a curly tail?
The black against the poor grey back groud (or upground from the fish) should make the Lure stand out brilliantly.
The same thing should apply to fishing at night. That's probably the real reason for using lamps.
And then if your fishing in bright sunlight, wouldn't something that has Shiny surface or catches sunlight be the ticket?
And when would you use bright Green, Chartruse and Green Maribou jigs?
