Wade In Close To Those Fish With Camo Fishing Pants
Apr 28th, 2008 by Aqua Design Editor
People have been fishing from banks beside lakes, ponds, rivers and streams for generations. They have also fished from rocks in the middle of rivers, accessible with a little leaping and hopping. Others prefer to just wade in and find a comfortable and stable footing from the outset. Whether you fish from a dry spot or you want to wade in, Aqua Design camouflage fishing pants enable you to get much closer to the fish you are trying to catch.
Fish have somewhat unique visual capabilities. First, because their eyes are on the sides of their bodies, they do not work together in quite the way human vision works. But you can be assured, they can see you. Several scientific studies of “fish vision” have amply demonstrated that fish can spot anglers both wading and standing on rocks or shores. Studies have also demonstrated that these clever fish can also distinguish color. But you already knew that. That’s why you choose specific lures or specific fly pattern color variations on given days.
Somewhere in your fly or tackle box there is almost bound to be the same lure or fly in several colors. You chose these patterns because you know the reflection of sunlight on the fly or lure will get the attention of the fish. You are counting on the interplay of sunlight with your lure.
Doesn’t it follow that when you stand on a rock in solid color pants, the fish can see you when they look toward the surface? If they are close enough to the surface to see your lure, they are close enough to see you. And what they see, especially close to the surface, is the interplay of sunlight in the water. Camouflage fishing pants do the best job of matching what the fish see to the background and allowing you to get closer to them without scaring them off.
All you need to do is think about where you will be fishing and deduce what the fish see when they look toward the surface of the water, and choose the camouflage fishing pants that will do the best job of making you stealthy. Want to improve your fishing? Improve your invisibility! Stealth is the name of the game!
