Yea, profile is more important. Black, white, or something in between all have their times, though. Probably less important at depth after dark, though.
Also, don't rigidly follow the white on light full-moon nights and black on dark nights thing. Vary your plug selection until you find what the fish are in the mood for.
I've done well with black plugs on bright nights, or even during the day, and I've done well with white plugs on very dark nights when a lot of people slinging black were coming up empty-handed.
We read about a lot of rules in fishing, but the fish don't read the books that we read.
