I had much better luck this season on white at night, even around the new moon DARK nights... (esp. tattoo sea pup) it doesnt add up... intentional false-steering info? maybe many publications and opinions are rigid in their approach and still recite what killed 'em in 1983? Who knows... I know black works at night, but you'd think you'd hear more about light colors at night based on my success and others (many night shots with a light plug). I'm not really sure there's a question here... Chalk it up to cabin fever...

I use light colored plugs to hang out of the Basses mouth after I remove the eel, how else would we all get free plugs?
