The Reel McCoy Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 What's up guys, trying to decide if I should buy a black or white rising son? I want the bottom hook for night fishing and I've read about guys having success with both colors at night. Appreciate any input, and maybe you guys can recommend an even better color. Already searched the threads sorry if I missed a similar topic. Thanks! Willluvstafish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Ramen Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 I don't believe color is as important at night as people think it is. I know a lot of folks will tell you black is best because it supposedly provides a better silhouette but the reality is that baitfish don't change color at night. As weird as it sounds, my best producing color for Rising Sons at night has been pink. I couldn't even begin to explain why it works. timcauliffe, waynem, evilcatfish and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yev14 Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 For me it depends on the moon. If the Moon is full or bright I start with White. If the moon is dark I start with black or purple -- not just with Rising Sons but anything. Example -- the Purple Nitro Slammer is really good at night especially under a dark moon. If this doesn't work I switch to the "opposite" color -- ie White on a dark night, or black under a bright moon. As for Top rRmen's comment I love Pink lures anytime, no idea why they work but they do... just my 2 cents bigpoppabass and The Reel McCoy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C_R_TX Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 ...the reality is that baitfish don't change color at night. +1, I don't really feel the need to change what I am throwing at night. The fish are well aware of what comes into their area, regardless of color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
