I used to guide offshore big game charters and I guess I carried a lot of that logic over to crappie fishing. When in deep water offshore you are trying to attract fish that are 30, 40, sometimes 100' beneath with you. There are times when color makes a big difference in getting a bite. But usually that means you aren't fishing active fish and you're finessing them to bite. A lot of the time an actively feeding fish with eat anything that comes within its visual range. I like presentations that will attract fish from as far away as possible so I gravitate to bigger lures and solid, opaque colors for dirty turbid waters.
