Hey Guys,
Just wondering does it matter what colour snood you use on your trace?
I,ve always stuck with clear mono amnesia/suffix etc or the more plain coloured snoods.Just curious what effect,if any at all would luminous red/yellow have on attracting/deterring the fish!might it spook certain fish if they saw a vivid coloured hooklength.
Are some fish more attracted to brighter colours or does it even matter as the colour will fade in the water anyway,never though about it much but would be glad to know if their or any benifets or drawbacks from using various colours
cheers

Re: Snood Colour!
I always use clear because i found leader colour makes a massive difference in course and game fishing so i can only assume the same for sea although at night it wont matter.

Re: Snood Colour!
i think line diameter is more important than line colour if your bait behaves in a natural manner then the fish will take it
