If I could only use one needlefish color for all applications (night/day) it would have to be lime green. Who would have thought that the color which has probably produced more big bass than any other would be considered a "funky color" in this poll. Signs of the times I guess.

Actually I had intended including a variety of other colors including the likes of pink, copper, lime green, but honestly had a mind blank while I was typing so I have to take what I can get ... :jester:

Ive always found this site to be interesting. Speaks about the most visible colors at different depths. What colors dissappear first. etc.

Check out the table half way down in yellow:

"With long viewing distances fluorescent green and yellow-green are excellent. "
