Bass & Eyesight - What You Need To Know

 I know you might be thinking this is a silly topic, but I think when choosing lures its important to know about a bass's eyesight. After all, how else are you going to catch them if you don't know about their senses. 

According to Bass Fishing & Catching there are a few important things that make up their eyesight.

• Size - Experienced Bass, will look for the largest prey with minimal effort. 
• Shape - A bass's eyesight is conditioned to know specific shapes with food. Like we as humans if you see something that's a circle, you think PIZZA!
• Color - I know, don't come at me for this one. But color does not play as big of a role as you would think it does. The colors they see the best are green and red. They can see blue and purples, just not as well. 
• Remember as visibility decreases, color changes dark to them. 
• Action - Bass are typically not reactive to food that is not moving. They strike based on motion detection.

Bass have binocular vison, two eyes with three dimensions.
