I think the basic colors work, white, black, blue, yellow and a combination of those. Other colors work well too. Parrot, radioactve, and black/orange do not really look like anything in nature but some nights and days they are tops. Also, pink is a great color. You should have seen the bass taken on pink Rebels, Gibbs and SS needles on the Cape and BI in the 70 and 80's on that shade. It is my all time favorite color in a needle fish plug. Finally, I catch alot of fish on very dark nights on light and white colored plugs. Look at the bone colored Redfin. It is the first plug I'll put on when it's pitch black. Black is super too on a black evening. I've also catch a sh*t load of bass on a black Slug-go on a bright full moon night. So a surfcaster has to expeirement and get confidence in plugs and colors. And don't believe that old axiom for one minute.
