The wire, swivels, and crimps I use are black. Anyway the issue isn't the wire getting bit, no problem there, wire saves lures. Without wire my loss of terminal tackle would be three or four times higher. I would not even try fish Baja without wire if the Sierra are around.
I found sierras often target the the swivel or crimp connection point to braid. Their teeth cuts through braid like a sharp razor blade, and you lose the entire wire leader and lure.
I think what is happening is the swivel and/or crimp is mistaken for a little minnow darting thru the water by sierras. So I'm looking to make the connection point as small as possible and less likely to draw attention.
