I use one color only for trout and I catch fish when nobody else can.I can't wait until April 1st to get out again.
I do the same thing! I wonder if it's the same color? I go to like 10 different sporting good stores and by tons of them in case I lose them while fishing! Thats how much I believe in this color! I know I'm nuts! Oh well LOL

mdrbowler99 sorry about you knee surgery. I know what it is like because I have gone through 2 of them (different knees). The 1st was in 77 and was an ACL complements of a sports injury. I did really OK through the years and a couple of years ago I tore a miniscus in the othe knee and had authroscopic surgery on that and it was a piece of cake. came back better than ever after a couple of days. Hope u are doing well now.
