Color

[Johnny b]

Just was wondering if any one has any points of view on the type of color you wear while bow fishing? I noticed at the state shoot, I got busted a lot while I was wearing a bright yellow cajan shirt. I know when I use to bass fish, my dad had a rule that you wore dark clothes. I have been wondering if the opposite is true. A light shirt to blend with the sky. I know those cool shirts that Ken wears would have no effect, other that put them in a trance. Just wondering.

I've decided that I do best when I wear light shirts when my background is a light sky. White, light blue. I've decided that yellow and red are not good.

If I'm sneaking along shore where there's a lot of brush behind me, I like camo-ish colors.

On the other hand, we've 'snuck' up on grass carp by pushing over/through log jams with the pontoon boat in flooded timber with the fan on full throttle. How those fish don't see or hear us coming I don't know.

Actually I think Kens nice team shirts are totally cool. i'm jealous. I do agree with christine, that on a day shoot light clothing has to be better. Movement has to be an issue as well. I have never shot on a fan boat, but sure have wondered how you could possibly sneak up on any fish. You can hear one for a very long ways. and water transmitts sound way better than air. But obovously they work.

I preffer no shirt in the day time becuase as soon as the fish see my man boobs they start laughing then choke and have to come up for air then I put the smack down on the few fish that i dont miss. thats what they get for laughing at me

Pass on the Pink Camo Shirt.. Seems I got busted by alot of carp wearing it, I like Christines Idea, colors that camo or blend in with the enviorment.

Yea, I'm thinking hot pink is not too common out in the great outdoor's especially in a boat. Unless it is a male carp.
