Hey guys I was wondering what I could do to improove my fly fishing game . One of my main questions is if the main line color is an issue especially for bass. I live in florida so if any of you can give any of advice.

if your water is clear it will if it is stained it should not matter

It doesn't seem to really matter for me.

the color of you fly line probably does not matter, just make sure you are using a long enough leader. Try a flourocarbon leader if the waters you are fishing are clear.

Here in Arizona the water is normally super clear. I like to use Scientific Anglers Lefty Kreh Signature line in willow color, a muted mossy green. I also use a 6 to 9 foot leader.

I forgot to ask if you are planning on using a floating line or a sinking tip or full sink? sink tip and full sink fly lines are usually a subdued color. A sinking tip line will have the front sinking portion a dark color such as dark green or black and the rest of the line a more visible color.

OK here we go there are a lot of schools of thought on line color , I've been Fly Fishing for years and have tried many different line colors over  time and have found that In my Humble opinion and that of some Pro's I've spoken with is That it really doesn't make a lot of difference. It's more a question of leader length and not putting the line over the fish as the lines shadow or the splash is what spooks em!!. So it boils down to you choosing the line and color your comfortable with and can easily see.
