would it be correct to say that beads may imitate fish eggs, thus being one of the main reasons they work

ive also been told that beads could complement/highlight your bait (ie) mussell & crab use yellow or orange beads, squid use white or luminous and theres supose to be a few other combinations

my favourite colours are Fluorescent yellow, red, luminous & orange

In my opnion beads are not what catch the fish its your bait.I very rarely use beads and if i do it is only to keep my bait from flying up the line.
