Actually I agree with you for the most part in that I don't believe that bass can distinguish colors at night due to the biology of their eyes. I am personally convinced of that. However they can see very very well at night all levels of grey and b/w. So my theory is that if you want your lure to stand out and look different from the pack, it is logical that you want the dark side on the bottom because all the bait fish have white on the bottom. right?

While these are not finished...you get the idea:
