#11253, "Poll question: Best boat hull color for trophy bass"


  

          

So, do you go with camo and fish with the boat against the shore to blend in, or do you go with white for fishing in open water on sunny days, or do you see a reason to go with a different color like gray, green, or beige?

I think the boat hull stickers only come in squid and anchovy. I wasn't going to let the secret out, but I heard that a squid pattern is hot for largemouth.

I voted camo because I like camo boats. I don't know how much of a difference it really makes to the fish especially when making long casts.

Lotta ins, lotta outs, lotta what have-yous

when your under water looking up a white or light blue hull is very hard to see. If your trying to be stealthy, get a whit bottomed hull and then have the boat camo above the waterline

I voted white. My guess is that white would be difficult to see and also cast a lighter shadow due to it being able to reflect more light.

I gotta agree with Matt, I think the ideal colors would be a light colored hull and camo above the waterline.

The bottom of my aluminum boat is a light blue. The bass like to hang out under it while I am fishing so it must not bother them :P
