Ay, there's the rub. Whether 'tis better to have lots of time to mess with tackle...or to spend all your time fishing. I guess we just have to make the best use of the "downtime" so that when things "return to normal" we are better prepared to take full advantage of it. But then again, in our wacko world, what really IS "normal".
Colors? Most of us who have spent a few years on the water...and who are into perpetual experimentation...have developed our own preferences and ideas about which colors are best. Unfortunately, when we go to our fave tackle purveyor we usually have to settle for whatever they have, rather than what we would like to have. That is what got me making most of my own stuff. And it's why I probably have every known color of paints, dyes, glitters and prism tape knowed to anglers. And why I am always tinkering with new mixes and blends to get even more colors. It never ends. Hallelujah.
