Below fifteen feet ,red is near invisible to fish, or so say those who make/sell red fishing line.
Above this depth, I have caught crappie on red jig's when they would not hit any other color I was in possession of that day.
I use a LED light that stretches over my fishing cap to observe the nocturnal meandering's of pleco's,cory's, and loaches.
The light has a couple white LED bulb's with one RED setting which keep's bug's away from your face at night.
It is also excellent for viewing the fish at night in my aquarium's for they are not as startled by the red light as they are with the white bulb's from the fishing light,or the light's over the tank.
I used the light to observe inside the pleco cave's whilst the male's are fanning the egg's, and to keep track of how many day's it took on average for the egg's to hatch and wriggler's to appear inside the cave.
Can find the fishing cap light's at Walmart in sporting good's.
