As for SP's, the black Sluggo are the ones to use fished as slow as you can. Most hard body lures will work, I find SP's better to use at night, less casting and more time to concentrate, they are also better if there's weed about, it can get a bit messy with sub surface lures in the dark.

As Richie just said soft plastics fished slowly such as slug-go's work well at night. Also much easier and safer to unhook fish under darkness.

When using hard lures at night I personally prefer lures that 'work' slowly and have a wide profile or wobble.

Remain quiet and keeping lights off the water important too.
