Thanks...that was a nice interesting read again...I found that a few years back when I was researching colors and water clarity, then lost it...it pretty much nails it!

I think lure triggers like vibration, flash, tail thumping, etc, will attract a fish...then size, shape, color, etc, will get it's attention...then technique will get it to bite....then scent, lure softness, etc will get the fish to hold on or try to eat it! I believe everything in combination will lead to success....hopefully!
