i'm no expert... Steve but i think what your referring to and correct me if i'm wrong.... but the fish not having eyelids change which light receptors in their eyes they use involuntarily at night, then they are using a black and white color scheme to identify their prey... whereas the pink color resembles
bait more closely than any other color.... at that light level...

read here... about cone cells and rod cells in their eye

Quote:
There are two types of receptor cells in the retina that are used, depending on light levels: rod cells and cone cells. Each type sends signals to the brain describing any image that is flashed on the retina. The cone cells are the color receptors of the fish and are used in daytime or whenever the light source is brighter than one foot-candle. At night, or when the light level falls below one foot-candle, fish use the rod cells, which are ultra light sensitive receptors. Rod cells are about 30 times more sensitive than the cones but they detect and record only black and white.

maybe there's a camera device that measures in foot candles
the available light.........Crafty would know....
