You should tend to switch over to dark colors, such as black blue flake. The vision of bass decreases in low light conditions, just as ours does. Their vision may be slightly better, but it still decreases at night time. You want to present a silhouette, shadowy lure to the bass. This is the best way to fish at night, senkos work great at night as do lipless cranks. I believe color matters more at night, so stick to the dark blues, purples and blacks.

Topwater baits. Frogs, plastic and hollow. Spooks, poppers, jitterbugs. I like to hit that afternoon 6pm-8pm bite, and if I cant sleep, that 11pm to 1 am bite.

Used to live in Weymouth and Milford MA during my high school and post-service college days. Fished at night quite a bit, black jitterbug was my favorite nighttime lure. I liked the jointed ones and don't be afraid to use big jitterbugs. Lots of small lakes and ponds in MA that don't have boat launches and can only be accessed with a car-topper, those lakes hardly see any night time pressure at all. I was tackle poor in those days, but if I fished those lakes now, I would bring some Gunfish, spooks, pop-R's, buzz-baits and prop baits with me.

Looks like you're from Plymouth or that area, there's a little lake that is on the other side of the road from Long pond, the outlet stream feeds Long Pond. 20 years ago that pond had some toads in it that loved Jitterbugs, don't know if that is still the case, but I'd give it a shot. I had some great nights on Mashpee-Wakeby also, but with smallies.
I'd rather be fishing

One of my most productive worm colors is called "Starry Night", it is clear on the bottom & a see though smoke on the top with tons of sliver glitter.

Most anglers opt for shallow topwater bites while I opt far a deep bottom bite ;)

Ive done a ton of buzzbaits at night, they seem to respond to color some, but sound more. I try and get a chugger a squeeker and a clanker, if that makes any sense.

Ive started using some big wake baits recently, as well as some larger swimbaits fished high and slow, but I still really enjoy a buzz bait bite at night

I have some mister twister top props in midnight there a dark blue/purple with a glitter with a black with blue flake 4'' split double tail trailer.(weedless)

I give a word of caution when anyone starts night fishing. I'm in the wilds and hear some strange stuff at night. One night it was next to my car and i waited for daylight to leave. We have more and more bears locally. I also hear body slams like one of us did a belly flop in the pool. Its the big bass jumping out of the water.
The fish are out there just waiting for you to throw the right lure along with the correct presentation so why are you still here?
Motivation is the key to success.....
Remember on a bad day just throw the lure you never tried yet.....

Night fishing is absolutly the best advantage to have during the hot summer months bigger bass will move into shallower water due to the low-light conditions and they will feed, that's why they get so darn big. Darker baits,topwater slow, colorado blade spinner bait because of the vibration.
