We didn't have much luck with the night fishing. Throwing everything. Maybe in the wrong place.

The morning we've caught everything on the planer boards from catfish, smallmouth, to an actual striper or two. I agree the early morning was good, but both big ones we caught were around 12:00 at 25-30ft next to the shore. We have marked a ton of fish, just not getting them. Although I caught a 40inch, 30lbs. so I'm not complaining.

Good luck.
