IMO, the motion, sillouete (sp?) and color makes a bigger difference. If a swimmer is cruising along the surface, the fish is going to see those 2 things first and orient its attack. A bass knows better to swallow a whole fish tail first so it has hit the head and doing so, the bass needs to get itself ahead of the plug. Have you ever had a bass hit a plug and have the line go slack?? I have never had that happen to me, instead there is an imediate tug, from teh bass hitting the plug head on. I bet the eyes are important when the bass comes in close... perhaps it will distract attention from hooks, I dunno
