I always throw natural colors because bass get used to eating shad and crawfish so of course silver/yellow and red/brown matches what they’re used to seeing.

When I was a kid we went far north in Canada camping and fishing. We fished in lakes that had never been fished in before. The waters were very dark from tannin. Our best lures by far were fluorescent orange. We hauled the fish in. Mostly Northern Pike and Walleyes

I have my monitor calibrated for my photography hobby. What you see as blue is actually more green on my monitor. I think manufacturers calibrate monitors to make it more pleasant for us. I learned years ago that I have to calibrate my monitors to reflect the actual colors in my photo images. Just my thoughts.

​@@imnotimportantthat's true, as screen are calibrated with +blue highly, +red lower and most of them lacks -green by few points. Our brain loves blue to make world more natural (instead of grey), why we can see more shades of green than any other color (except for ppl in cold zones coz they see more blue shades than green... Like Alaska or Siberia). That's why night vision glasses (gogles/ thing that army murderers uses to see at night) show everything in green rathet than red or blue.

Wow this really does make a difference as to what colors bass really do see. It is amazing as to how chartreuse is actually white and how the glitter stands out. Amazing video and thanks for sharing!!!

I need to do some investigating on the UV. Definitely feel like a part 2 video is in the works.

@imnotimportant

4 ай бұрын

Thats what I have heard too, which is how they feed at night or really deep. UV rays are not blocked by the water as well as visible light rays, so as the water gets deeper we cant see anymore but UV rays are still getting thorough and UV colors still shine bright and visible to fish. But each UV wavelength is also lost at specific depth just like color, red being the first to go neutral starting at 10 feet.

Great Video, sharing it with others.

Great video Sir. Loved your gill swim jig example and found the green pumpkin soft plastic fascinating too. The in the water example really highlighted how it's devoid of negative cues when finesse is the game. Now think how chartrues highlights can be applied. I'll second the part 2 segment showing how different water conditions/color (opening a can of worms but wind and sun light too ???) can highlight or camouflage our baits. Maybe geeking out but this was cool. All the best.

They are really interesting websites to investigate. I think you will enjoy putting different colors in there.

Yeah I thought everything green would stand out sense they have a green cone. But like you said, the blue flake in black& blue was green. Then the green backs on hard baits were light blue & green pumpkin was brown/pumpkin? Not what I was expecting but super interesting. So a white lure with a chartreuse tail is just to catch the anglers, not the fish sense it's all white to them...

Awesome I was told this years ago same thing you just said but I never seen it proven you've got it going on you just proved things

And this is why, "back in the day", most lures were basic colors. Reds and whites. I often wondered why a bass would eat a chartreuse colored bait, when I have never seen a chartreuse colored bait fish. So, in short, we look at what the fish are eating and match the colors that we see, and the bass will see the colors of the bait fish we are trying to mimic. All of these bizarre colors, especially chartreuse are just gimmicks to get fishermen to buy their product. And we all fell for it.

This is quite revolutionary. I am curious to see what my favorite color "Morning Dawn" looks like to a bass. I appreciate the video!

Your point well taken. But if i may, since Steve introduced this to me( but I read the science studies long ago). I played with this Dalton Lense algorithm. Just because you have a blue bait and or baits with some blue spectrum in it, the blue shades do not go invisible. That is important in my short research, because it just shades it differently presumably to the bass. If say your goal is to match the hatch as they say, then use the links Steve provided to upload photos or if your a Linux Vs Windows user you can write your own program and include the Dalton Lense algorithm and make bait choices accordingly. Example i went to 6th sense website or maybe tackle warehouse grabbed some screenshots and boom could see the colors that caught fisherman and what a bass might see after passing through dalton lens

Really enjoyed this video, was well done. One reason i liked it is i read the studies on largemouth vision. Things i never understood is i thought red was first color to disappear under water? Its a stretch but Steve do you think with your underwater camera you can test color red at multi depths in human lenses and bass lenses ?

Lure colors really are designed to catch fishermen. They way chartreuse looked blew me away considering how popular it is. Then I thought maybe it was it's UV properties...But isnt white also UV reflective.... The mind wobbles...

This reminds me of red fishing line. On one hand they say it’s invisible to fish, yet also say use red lures. This seems to show they see red quite well. I expected it to just look black like a silhouette.

I have caught more SPECIES of fish on red jig head, yellow grub, and silver spinner blade than any other. They are all attracted to that combo.

@SteveRogersOutdoors

2 ай бұрын

That is awesome! Love it when a lure just catches anything that swims. Thank you for sharing this.

This will change with depth I’m assuming as red is the first color we lose underwater with our vision anyway. Thats why divers use filters on GoPros so everything doesn’t look green

Would be nice if lure manufacturers actually made lures the colors the fish see so we had a more accurate picture of what the lure is replicating under water

The red is overstated underwater. As any scuba diver knows, water filters out red light. Below about 10 ft deep there is very little red light left and it looks more like black to us. I suspect that for bass only green is left.

Supper dupper interesting! So does blue or green stand out more to a bass? The bright green on top of one lure looks more blue with filter

@SteveRogersOutdoors

4 ай бұрын

I kind of use the black-blue flake craw as the best example. Those bright blue flakes turned bright green with the filter on. They have green cones in their vision so that would seem the green should stand out more, but definitely some of the filtered hues had a bluish tinge to them.
