None of the studies I've seen mention flies - they're all using colors on a board or something similar. Different fish have different ocular capabilities so there's no study that's all encompassing. Plenty of studies on trout eyeballs, the hard part is the translation from latin... scholary work is difficult to read unless you have a background in Science.
