How do I choose the correct color for a saltwater fishing lure?
I typically fish (surfcasting, pier fishing) for Stripers and Bluefish using a bottom-feeding rig on the Connecticut shore. I want to start using some lures but there are so many colors to choose from...anyone know where I can find some good info specifically about the coloring of lures?
Good question! I prefer the shiney chrome ones if I am fishing for Stripers. Bluefish, get a floater with light bottom and darker top - some are green, some blue. I don't care for the orange ones.
But bluefish go after anything you thow in the school. Be sure you have long strong steel leaders (black). So they don't go after your line! I lost more blues that way.
