Do you think boat colors have any effect of fish..mainly bass?

I've talked to some folks and they feel some boat colors may spook bass...What do you think..?

I know folks that have bright yellow, orange, and other color boats and they catch fish OK...

Just curious,

I don't personally think one color is any better than the next.  Here in Florida - my next boat will be a light color to help with heat absorbsion.  Them boats get down-right hot in the summer.  Hard to sit down in the seat sometimes.

I don't have a clue if fish are shy of one color or another. But I heard Denny Brauer say that he feels that a light colored boat scares the fish and said he always used a dark color.

I would think a dark color on the bottom would be better than a light color.

I would say the opposite, Notice how just about all fish have a lighter under-belly then their top half? So when predator fish looking up cant see them aswell and they blend into the surface/sunlight reflection. So maybe the white gel-coat boats have a slighter advantage on not being seen? who knows lo
