I've read mixed things on red hooks. Some say that it appears as blood to the fish, some say it vanishes in the water better, and some say it's a gimmick. Anyone have any experience in testing different hook colors? I've been using Daiichi bleeding bait hooks, but wondering if it even matters.

I use them exclusively when fishing for trout whether I'm rigging a popping cork or Carolina rig, and I believe that I lose fewer fish than with a Kahl hook. I also use flourocarbon leader. My buddies that I fish with are somewhat skeptical about whether I need to use the flourocarbon, but my feeling is that one should give himself the best chance to catch fish in all conditions.
