Abstract: An exemplary fishing lure evaluation system includes a light transmission element, such a red-free green filter of 50% transmissivity, arranged relative to a light source for illuminating the lure under evaluation primarily with light transmitted through the element so as to reproduce the natural underwater illumination for the lure including the effects of the water coloration and the light level preference of the type of fish targeted. Preferably, a viewing element is included through which the lure is observed, such as a clear lens or red-free green filter of 50% transmissivity, to duplicate the effects of the water between the fishing lure and the fish for a nominal presentation distance. Specific forms of the invention include an assortment of filters for use with a conventional flashlight or, alternatively, a lightweight plastic tube having, for example, red-free green sides, an open end and a clear condensing lens at the opposite end to reproduce the primary winter feeding conditions for steelhead or salmon for short or long presentation distances depending on whether the user views the lure through the lens or the sides, respectively. The system permits evaluation of all types of lures including homemade lures, fluorescent lures and multicolored lures. A standard proven effective for the local fish population, such a natural food specimen, can be used to select a color attractive to this population, or the system can be used to grade the lures according to how well they hold their apparent color when observed with the system.

Abstract: An exemplary fishing lure includes a blade having on its rear-facing or inner surface one or more detail elements, such as an eye-shaped marking or dot, behind which is a background surface finish. Desirably, the detail element contrasts in underwater shade with the background lighting afforded by the surrounding water and the background surface finish likewise contrasts with the detail element thereby increasing that element's visual prominence per the optical principle of figure and ground to a fish just behind the lure moments prior to strike. Also, an inner surface finish behind and contrasting with the background surface finish increases the lure's visibility to a fish initially moving into alignment behind the lure while an outer surface finish contrasting with the background lighting increases the lure's visibility to a fish first noticing the lure while swimming a distance off to one side. The blade can comprise a spinner or spoon and, if a spoon, preferably the detail element includes a raised semi-transparent body, such as a bead of fluorescent plastic, backed by a highly reflective or silvered surface so as to be visible a greater percentage of time as the spoon flutters from side-to-side. Preferably, those color combinations which provide the maximum underwater contrast for given underwater lighting, water color, and maximum strike distance are objectively determined, such as by using optical filters to replicate the effects of the water, so that a clear procedure for preferentially selecting a particular lure from an assortment is identified.
