As far as bucktail colors are concerned, I know white is generally good for daytime, black for night. I see red bucktails, as well as alot of red and white redfins and minnows out there. I have always thought that the color of your bucktail, or any other lure for that matter should attempt to imitate the color of a baitfish, squid, etc., yet I can't think of what I'd be imitating if I used a red bucktail, or a red and white minnow. Is red or red/white a nighttime color or day, and does it produce results? Are these colors, as well as the fluorecent greens and yellows I see just meant to attract attention (from the fish)?
