I night fish quite often each year.. I mostly stick with the same stuffI am using during the day. It works OK for me. Mostly though I am fishing for white perch at night and almost always pick up a few salmon and bass in the process.. You would see the bass jumping out deeper but they are on top of the water so perhaps a fly rod would work great up here if I was fishing for them at night..

1 week from today and I will be fishing any time I want to almost as the shutdown will take effect on 3 pm next Tuesday. I did apply for the peer support worker program to try and help others out.. But it will not be long and I can say Fish On!

Chuck I've got plane tickets for georgia from june 17, to july 7 and do some fishing in the tri-state area and I'm not sure if I'm going to make it that far south at this time but if I do we'll hook up. Good luck and catch some biggins.

I went out night fishing last night and limited out on white perch..I only used the same bait I would of used in the day light, the perch didn't know the difference and all they did was bite better..There was a few bass jumping farther out as I was fishing from the shoreline. I am debating about heading back out tonight and trying it again. I will try to remember to take a camera and put it on night vision so I can show a few pics. This year it is more crowded than before with all the laid off workers and all.. But I still pulled it off and brought home my 25 fish..

Usually when i night fish, it's for catfish. I fish the same way i would during the day using the same kind of baits. Last night i actually got into some really nice smallmouths in the dark. I was using just a nightcrawler under a glo in the dark bobber fishing about 3 feet deep. The smallmouth are getting ready to spawn. It's the first time i have caught a bass of any type in the dark.
