New and full moons are a key time but I learned from reading an article that it goes even deeper than that.If you can time your trip aorund the moon rise or moonset on those days it gets even better.Time that with a sunset or rise and even better.So to cap , according to the article , if you hit the lake at sunrise and the moon is setting or rising at the same time along with a major moon phase your chances are great for trophy fish and numbers of fish.I dont keep a log and cant post hard results but those rare times have been good to me.The moon is a powerful thing.
