I hate black.It's so simple.I like to give the fish a chance..You know why you don't see lots of custom plugs in Black.It's because it's boring to paint.Psst,psst,pssst and your done.Where's the fun in that..Try to get a black Danny from Ryan Smith.It took him years to paint a white plug..
Colors will take a different hue in the the black of night.Take a school bus bomber and hold it at a arms length on a dark moon. Tell me what color it looks like.I'll save ya the trouble.To me it looks olive..No I'm not color blind.
I have interesting take on color one I never see mentioned.With the talk of LMB fishing this is something I figured out while doing so.I used to throw dark lures in the daytime late in the season.With the abundance of the yoy bait the dark colors made a smaller profile.Which in turn matched the hatch better.IMO....I think at times when the bait is small perhaps a plug like a pearl bomber on a dark night makes a smaller profile..I have experienced some of the best fishing of my life.Blitz like, every cast with a pearl bomber.In the darkest of places on the darkest nights..
More micro details.It's all about the details.
With that said I have no idea why they hit Parrot..
Well l have a idea...For instance on BI it can get really dark and parrot is king. I think the parrot takes on the same olive appearance as school bus where there is more ambient light...
Now this of course is all based on fish that don't see colors the same way us humans do...It's just food for thought.
I think when it comes down to it.When you throw what you have confidence in.Your bound to score with it.In turn you gain more confidence..And so on, and so on..
