    Fishing a Full Moon

    Now that the full moon is over, what suggestions do you guys have for fishing with a full moon at night.
    I have always heard how good this may be but have always struggled when others have had good nights?

    Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

    RE: Fishing a Full Moon

    Smallmouth fishing relatively speaking because I don't largemouth fish at night - quantity on Full Moon, QUALITY on New Moon. I have consistently caught bigger fish but not as many on the new moon. Black and Blue jig, tube or short arm spinnerbait for Smallies a few days before to a few days after the new moon. Even when fishing the Full Moon I will focus on the "Shaded" side of the point at night because I believe the smallies don't like the bright light of the full moon. Just my opinion but everyone has those.

    RE: Fishing a Full Moon

    I too struggle when there is a full moon but have started noticing a few things. Like others you may here from try fishing the darker banks, thy seem to hold more fish. I also like to throw lighter colored lures, red, brown,and watermelon colored worms seem to to better for me for largemouth for some reason.
