Night Fishing Trip
Posted: Tue Jul 31, 2018 3:32 pm
It has been pretty dang hot around here lately and one of my favorite ways to beat the heat is to go night fishing. I usually only make it out a time or two each year, but I always enjoy fishing after dark. The quiet of the night, bright moon and hard-hitting bass keep me coming back.
I went out Sunday night and fished from around dark until nearly 4 am. The fishing wasn't extraordinary, but we did land a few nice bass. As usual, the typical all-black plastics and spinnerbaits were what we used. I like the spinnerbaits with the giant blades to get that thumping action. Here are a few of my favorites.
The ChatterBait seemed to be the best producer that night though. This was one of the better fish we caught and it fell for a black and blue ChatterBait.
When I fish at night I am usually idling from place to place, so that makes it ideal for mapping while you fish. Check out these humps we found by mapping.
I plan to make another trip out at night because it is one of my favorite parts of the summer.
