I watched a video clip of Bob Popovics tying a surf candy. He stated that he likes using darker or denser materials for the lateral line. He states that when a minnow is swimming in the top water column with the sun behind it the lateral line appear much darker and provide a trigger point.

Thanks Louis, makes perfect sense. I like lateral lines as well as eyes and gills on my baitfish patterns.
