Red fishing hooks

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.

Makes no difference as far as I can tell.

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.
