I don't know if color is a key at night , maybe glow helps . At the Berry I slayed them one night on white paddle bug . I think movement and vibration is more important . I still don't claim to be a expert on night fishin by no means . I caught a 7.5 lbs walleye in june on the Provo and all I did was cast a floating rapala on the water and just let it sit there with no action . I sure the splash is what brought it up to check it out and hit it . Flies I use at night are muddlers and big stones (wet) with rubber legs on rivers .The rubber legs I feel send out vibrations . I fished the Berry at ice out at night once . Boy that was nuts but the fish were hitting good on leech patterns . I am from Kansas and we always fished for catfish at night . Never tried for them in the daytime . I guess they use some sense to seek pray out at night . I caught a few trout on the Green and Provo that are blind and they don't seem to be hurtin on feed .Fish like trout have latteral lines to find food, but they can smell too .Ok that my 2 cents I'll quit now .
