Hey Guys, I bought a slow sinking Hitch (the color they had) Triple Trout with some X-mas bonus$$ and my old fishin' buddy said I was "stupid" for spending that much on a "lure". That is until I did a little demo. Running it 6 inches under the water I did a little walk the dog and "s" twitching(in place). The phrases "WOW , it looks REAL" and "DUDE that's SICK!!" replaced "stupid" and "you paid HOW much??!" (worth EVERY DAMN PENNY). Just remember, the fish are first and foremost responding to the ACTION of the bait, with COLOR being just "icing on the cake", although the finish on the bait, i.e. dull and/or matte vs. shiny and/or sparkly, may enhance the realism and visiblity. Extreme colors such as chartreuse or black ,depending on water clarity and light penetration, WILL make the bait more visible to the fish. The difference being whether they have one hook in their lip (or under the jaw) or the whole bait down their throat!! (Jes' my opine...)--- Alex
