Generally, I use darker colors in deeper water unless the lake is clear, then I still use darker colors, they are just not as dark. There are so many factors to take into consideration when choosing a color, depending on the lake, the amount of light penetrating the water, water color, time of day as well as time of year. Then you have to look at overcast or sunny days, to fine tune the color selection.
For me I wait until I get to the lake to even make a jig color selection.
