Despite what you may have heard, the color of your monofilament line can have an impact on a fish’s ability to spot your line underwater, which almost always spoils your chances at catching anything. Be sure to use a type of monofilament line that blends in with the water color when possible as this will help camouflage your line to a better degree. If you plan to use a topwater lure, it’s best to use a clear-colored mono line as fish might spot darker line more easily if it is set against a clear sky with plenty of sunlight.
