Night Smallie fishing-Dale Hollow
I always smallie fish at Dale, but hardly ever at night. I plan on fishing in 2 weeks and probably hit the smallies at night hard for once. So I was just wondering if anyone is willing to divulge any info on how you fish for them at night. I have thrown some jigs on the points and deep flats at night, as well as slow rolling spinnerbaits but any more suggestions? What about color preferences? Also, what depths should I concentrate on this time of year? I know my electronics well and definitely know how to find the shad if thats what everyone is focusing on. I am always out walleye fishing at night, and see some guys pounding the shore while others are fishing on points and weedbeds at least 30 foot deep. So if anyone is willing to give me info about types of baits, colors, depths and rocks or flats for structure that would be greatly appreciated.
Haha I am willing to trade walleye info, I have been filling the boat the last couple of months. My biggest this summer is a 7 and 5 pound 'eye with a 3 1/2 pound average.

I fished down there one night last week. The bite was slow we fished the grass and points and only had a few smallies, nothing great. I did manage a 6lb Large Mouth. Good luck Ryan.
Re: Night Smallie fishing-Dale Hollow
Thanks for the info. If the bite is still that so I might as well try to put some walleyes in the boat. Well you dont know if you dont try i guess

It may have been the night. There were a couple of fronts and some rain during the day. Good luck and let us know how you do.
