Bead colour for flounder and general beach fishing????
Howya, does anyone have any preference for bead colour for flounder,dogfish,ray,coalies etc.I know fish dont eat beads but i wonder do they make much of a difference and do they really atttract the fish or is it really just a load of rubbish
thanks, cOnor

Re: Bead colour for flounder and general beach fishing????
beads .blades, bling
for whiting one lumi bead on each snood seems to up your catch rate ,i am a fan of some attractors for alot of spieces ,on the other hand for bass i dont use em just make sure i have A1 quality bait so its down to what your tageting ,some folks love em some dont i think the fish are the same
