Hey guys/gals

I just recently bought a nice cabin across from a lake in Maine for a weekend getaway place. Just last week I bought I nice used 1986 Spectrum Bass boat. So I'm really excited to get back in the fishing game. I used to love fishing years ago and Now I'm getting back into it. I have some basic knowledge and have been cruising the internet and this forum for a few weeks. There are lots of things I'm learning and lots that still confuse me a bit. I've been doing some searches to find some answers. I'm sure I;ll be around here for a while asking lots of questions.
First off is there a basic rule of thumb for color selection of your bait for time of day and water clarity. From what I have been reading, I'm getting that dark water= darker color bait and clear water= light colored bait, and Darker colored bait at night. Is this right? fill me in.
