Countless gallons of ink have been spilled on that very subject, summarized best this way,<br />

I've read studies from the 30s and 40s That prove they not only see color, but also recognize - and remember - shapes.<br />
<br />
Most research suggests they see colors as we do, but with a yellow filter

<p>About 35 years ago I bought a thing called a Color-C-Lector. You dropped the probe into the water and lowered it to a depth you thought the fish might be. There was a color scale on the dial that the arrow pointed to... telling you what color was most visible at that depth, under existing lighting conditions and the clarity of the water. (clear, stained or muddy).</p>

<p>Say what you will, but it worked for me. As lighting conditions changed, say it became cloudy, and the bite dropped off, I'd re check the Color-C-Lector and change color on my lures accordingly. And the bight picked up again till conditions changed again. This has worked for me in lakes, streams, and saltwater. I think they still sell the Color-C-Lectors.</p>
<p>So perhaps it isn't that fish see color as color... it's more likely that some colors are more visible under certain light, and water clarity conditions. So yes, fish see color and color is important. </p> Worth at looking at again we…tag:bigbluegill.ning.com,2016-01-07:2036984:Comment:6479902016-01-07T17:23:36.656Zdick tabberthttps://bigbluegill.ning.com/profile/dicktabbert
