Clear is never transparent underwater. Background color is changed inside the lure's body and tail while the lure's surface reflects light giving the lure its shape. So much time is spent insisting on this or that color to catch fish while ignoring the lateral line and visual sharpness of fish that detect a lure's presence, motion, action, speed and direction of travel. Color realism doesn't exist for fish that strike lures - most which don't move in a realistic nor natural manner. Live bait is a different story and at times doesn't do as well as lures.
