Hey Chris, I'm curious about one thing. Are you sure you have really thought through the camo thing. My thoughts are that if you want to camoflage yourself in a particular situation look at how nature does it. If you are hiding on dry land from terrestrial creatures camo is definitly the way to go, but this is water. A fish looking up with the sky as a background sees blue sky, white or grey clouds. Notice that one of the best aquatic predatory birds is the Egret which is snow-white. The underside of most fish is white so they are invisible when seen from below. My boat is solid (almost) white, and I think that makes excellent camoflage. The only thing that would be better in my opinion would be mirror silver to simply reflect whatever was around (the underside of water surface is a mirror). Bob
