Seeing is Believing-Fish Senses
The answer is simple and complex at the same time. Have you ever wondered whether fish can really see color and, if so, what do they actually see?

Thinking back to those first six months that I went from driving around the creek chasing my tail with a double dropper rig, 3 oz pyramid sinker, and nasty frozen shrimp to actually locating reds and letting my Carolina rigs with live mullet do the work.
