Handlining: Leader Colors

I've been experimenting the last couple of years with different colored line for each leader. My 65 year old eyes just can't differentiate the same colored lines anymore. I've caught enough fish over the last couple of years to establish the fact that line color doesn't seem to bother the fish.



My choices: top lead - 30 feet - Trilene Big Cat Solar Green but i might try some 20 lb. Stren Hi-Vis Gold. Middle Lead - 15 feet, 20 lb. Cajun Red. Bottom Lead - 5 ft of Mason 16 lb Leader Material.



Works the best in low light or dark conditions. Especially useful for people like me who can tangle lines just by looking at it. My son laughs that I can tangle so easily, so often. The reason he laughs is because when he was little he used to tie string into knots and then give it to me to see if I could untie the knots. That training comes in handy now.
