with out any doubt glowtruse or black..you're looking to silohete the bait against the water surface...However...wading at night gives me the creepy crawlies....bull sharks are doing their thing at that hour ya know.

I don't think color matters all that much, although I admit I stick to darker colors at night for the most part. I mainly throw something big & noisy at night. Night wading is a blast.

NS - Black with Red Eyes aka The Night Stalker
NSCH - Chart. head, Black Body
NSRH - Red head, Black Body
PD - Purple aka The Purple Demon
S - Silver

In W. Matty it doesn't matter what time of day or night it is, the Bull Sharks are there looking for an easy meal. I know spring time fishing is here when 2 things happen, Glass minnows show up and Bull Sharks start showing up.

Nothing quite like seeing a 5'-6' Bull Shark blow up on a fish 10ft or less from you in chest deep water!!!!

Topwaters at night are a lot of fun, though! South Padre Bum gave good advice.

I mainly throw black with chartruese head Top Dogs or He Dogs at night.

I'm contemplating hitting the flats this weekend at night with the full moon.

Caught 15 Saturday night in East Bay under a full moon. Chrome & Black She Dog did the trick. We left 'em biting.

flushI think if a 5-6 bull shark blew up out of the water 10 feet from me while I was chest deep, in the water, my waders would never be the same!
