Under normal circumstances, it shouldn’t matter because bass are opportunist feeders! However, there are some common rules like dark night equals dark lures and vice a versa. At night I wouldn’t worry too much on a color pattern. If anything, try to work on the presentation and finding the proper feeding depth.
In fact, last year I took a young gentleman under my wings and on one late evening, we were fishing a structure and we fished about 25 feet apart. We did quite well and we managed to cull some very impressive fish up to 42 lbs. After the bite was over, I asked him what he was using… and he said to me…
“ Ah, that’s a tricky question Al. You told me to concentrate on the presentation and fish it with confidence…and that’s what I did” So I insisted to ask only to find out that he was using the same lure but the complete opposite color.
