RE: Night Fishing Techniques
Great post. We need to get this back on the first page of the board.
I don't know why, but I'd never really thought about night fishing in terms of water temp before. I knew that 90% of our really good fish in the dead of summer came between say, 2 and 5 a.m., but I never connected that with water temp.

you know most of the info that you put up i had noticed over the years the same as you with the exception of one. the deal with the shadows. that was a great piece of information i think. i never put that together. i'm going to green tonight with a friend and with the clear water and somewhat of a moon i believe that piece of information will come in quite handy.

RE: Night Fishing Techniques

Fished Dale this weekend and my best fishing was from 2 am to 4 am in the shaddows in water temps of 76 degrees. Four fish 4+ at 15 ft on ledges on black and blue jigs with black craws.

Earlier this year on Cumberland it seemed that most if not all fish were being caught between 2am to sunrise including SM, Striper, and Walleye.
