I think if I ever started having success with it I would love it. God knows it's so much better without all the jet skis running around! I think it's my own issue. Just not having enough faith in night fishing. Maybe it's because I can't see the normal things like my line moving, or where my bait lands.

you need a 12v black light, makes fluorescent line look like well rope, you can use heavier line at night, the biggest trouble most new fisherman have with night fishing is depth perception, but after a wile it goes away...Originally Posted by bkbobbit

Yup. There is nothing better when you get on a hot spot and dont have to worry about any wind or comotion. You can just pretty much stay still on the spot , maybe give the trollin motor a tap or two. I love doing this at points with a big ol worm. And diddo on the black light.

we fish Herrington Lake alot, the entire has rock banks, throwing up on the bank is almost a sure break off, after thinking about it, I think it's more of a timing thing than a visual one, unless the fish are nose up against the bank your bait can land a little short, Herrington is also a deep lake, so we pitch a good bit of the time, pitching keeps the bait low and the black light lights it up the whole time, hope this helps some.

The trick to night fishing is black lights and florecent line. You can see everything. You line looks like a neon tube and there is enough light to cast with. But there is defanately a time frame most of my fish usually come just before dawn. Which makes for a long night if you start at dark.
