Bass have fairly limited sight in terms of colors, they can see most colors to a degree but for them some colors are a lot less. well brighter? Maybe vivid is a better word, Red, and Green are the primary colors folks believe bass can see well, everything else just drops sharply. I believe it's more to do with bright colors reflecting more light off them making them stick out more (by contrast) vs everything else around it causing a semi halo effect probably similar to street lights at night maybe? but to a lesser degree.
We can say with a good degree of certainty bass can see Red, and Green as they are able to accurately find items of this color at a high rate 70%-80% of the time with every other color being sub 50% accuracy or lower. Red in particular has it's own issues tho with water, as it's a more difficult color to see in general (with low light conditions) even we have trouble with red and in muddy water light can be limited causing the color to appear darker and probably impacting their ability to see it well.
What I find interesting is the color green, no real issues with it in muddy water it tends to be more visible in low light conditions and bass can see this well. Almost makes me wonder if this is why green pumpkin type colors are so popular since bass can see it well, and it's nearly as visible to them in all types of water than red (mostly very clear water where red is more visible) but still interesting none the less.

The video randomly popped up in my recommendations. Wasn't expecting it to be taking place on the lake near where I live. Lol
I've fished for various fish on that lake. Mostly fished below the dam my whole life though. Above sailboat bridge, I flipped upside down over the railing of our gigging boat when my dad accidentally drove straight into a dead submerged log. Smashed my thumb against the railing when I tried to catch the limb sticking out of the water, but luckily caught the boat rail with my other hand and avoided falling in.
Another time, me and my dad pulled an all nighter on the boat fishing for catfish above sailboat bridge again. I dozed off. Then I heard a ding and opened my eyes to see my fishing rod flying off the boat in midair, before it dived into the lake. My dad quickly threw on a treble hook and caught the line. Got the rod back, but no fish. Lol
Then when we were camping in Bernice when I was a teen, some people were trying to parasail. When they tried to take off from the bank, the guy lifted his legs way too early, and the boat just dragged him several yards through shallow water filled with jagged rocks as he yelled in pain. I knew something like that was going to happen before they took off. Lol

A lot of good tips. You mentioned to keep an eye on the water temp. To me the water temp is very critical early season. A good week or two of consistent 45 - 50 degrees is good pre spawn water temp for largemouth but you never mention what the water temp was when you made this video. I was very curious about the water temp, mostly because there was no leaves on the trees. But it's all good, I have a pretty good idea what the water temp may have been but some younger anglers watching, may not know what temps to look for. I think they would rather hear it from you vs hearing it from me or anyone else. I enjoy watching your videos, keep up the great work.

Hey Scott you better not be advertising Walmart if you are a true American. Walmart supports China and slowly completely stopped supporting Americans by letting them go for computers. The Chorona virus is a biological weapon that was developed and released from China. And Walmart is a strong supporter of China and anyone that advertises Walmart is showing their anti-American.

Back in the day before marketing took over bass fishing, we used 5. 1: 1 reels with mono and 6' or 6'6 rods and spinnerbaits and caught largemouth. I don't need to waste money supporting corporations' marketing departments to be successful.

It's crazy how bass prefer dark colored lures in dark water. I have found that black purple and dark brown works better in dark and muddy water. Seems it should be the opposite but what do I know.

Remember bass can see 5x greater than us under water so if you can see your bait 2 ft down a bass can see it from 10 ft away and thats actually considered more clear water than muddy
