Whenever I fish with someone new or when a friend is buying equipment.  

Presentation comes into play most often when we are fishing off shore over

deep structure. Fishing ledges is a specific example. Most of the time the fish

stack up just off the drop and facing upstream. Sometimes dragging a bait

rather than hopping makes all the difference in the world.

 

Well, and here I thought you didn't even own a boat. Gotta love that offshore stuff!?

For some reason a lot of my setups are blue and orange (Go Gators). I bought a *** and Lews Mach Crush because of the color.

 

Somebody at Lew's must love soda pop. Can't be a coincidence that they chose the color orange for a reel named Crush.

 

Good looking reel though. It's on my wish list.

That changed as I have been doing a lot of kayak fishing lately and like to be as visible as possible.

I'm still waiting for my favorite color - chartreuse.

 

I feel the same way, which is why I had to jump on this guy before Native discontinued the color.

 

As for rods and reels, I care a little about color I guess.  Or rather, I love blinged out color-matching combos, but have yet to be willing to pay more to customize my gear.  I think once I settle down and mange to keep a combo together for more than one season I might dip my toe into it a little.
