Thanks for replying,
I'm going in about 30 minutes. Our local lakes look fished out until right at dark Man! the size of thosee swirls are unbelieveale. We were out last week .We had to go home quick because of the mosquitoes but we had a couple bass actually rock our jon boat good chasing fish. I'm using one of those under the hood lights that have a regular sized light bulb and hooks off the battery. I rigged up a light holder with a small bar clamp. Works great. Also, we have 2 cans of bug spray.
I totally forgot about night fishing. The guys also said like you. 2 to 3 days up to the full moon were best. Well, see ya later. I'm going to bump a worm. I'll be using th e20lb Fireline for sure. I understand at night they can pull the rod right out of your boat if your not careful.
