[quote flygoddess]Tuff call, I don't figure fish to be real smart though.
I am betting they adapt to a lot of boat traffic.
[#ff0000]From fishing rivers, I do know that silhouette or shadows will spook[/#ff0000]
Sound, I don't know about that either. I watched a program where a captain took clients out and would tap on the floor of the boat with a pool stick to attract fish, which it did, so I have tried it....hummmm...I will leave that one up for every ones own experiences.[

Colors? I wear pretty bright clothing with YELLOW being my favorite...no problem there.
I think stillwater is very forgiving, and you can do a lot more there. Gin clear rivers however, stay low and out of sight, still not sure on sound because of wind and what not.
I just say, don't read too much into a no fish day, it happens to everyone, that is why it is called fishing, not catching....LOL[/quote]
nailed that one on the head. in moving water or in the shallows of lakes and resivoires shaddows and silloettes will do it every time.
i did see something cool on the sportsman channel the other night they were trolling for chinook in the columbia and when they were fighting a fish if it got under the boat the guy would bang on the bottom of the boat with a stick and the fish would spook and come out from under the boat every time.
