It has been a few years since I read those fish sight books but I recall seeing in several places that the fact is that
at night all bass
cannot see color so it really shouldn't matter. They have both rods and cones that transition at dawn and dusk where they can see both.
During the day they
can see color, However, the sight of bass at night is much better (cells are something like 90X more sensitive to light) than during the day. As I said at dawn and dusk both rods and cones are both active and they can see very well then, one author believes that could be why the fish seem to be more active during those periods, (dawn and dusk) as he feels they have a real advantage then. He also said moonlight does not count as daylight.
Personally, I believe profile, action and contrast, in that order, are more important than blue red green or yellow . But if you find that they are only hitting your chartreuse and magenta with green eyes and a white bucktail with glow hooks...then I would fish that plug.
That said, bass eat just about anything and everything, I mean what haven't you seen in a bass' stomach? IMO if it looks like they can eat it and they are hungry they will.
