I haven't ever been truly night fishing but I know plenty of people slay the crappie and walleye at night.

Thank you hermin

Where are you planning to go? I know I see boats out on the lake in the summer at night fishing with lights. Don't know about this time of year with the water temp still pretty low.

Boh

I'm planning on going to narrow lake it's only 10 minutes away. Well I guess I'll just have to give it the old college try tonight and let you guys know if it was a success or a failure

Well we didn't have any luck last night fishing in the dark although I did get a few nibbles last night and there was a lot of activity. Water temperature was 62 and 3/4 of the night was raining........should've stayed home where it was dry

Well Chris the old saying is "You won't know if you don't go".

I give you credit for going, all I heard was rain falling on the roof......and I thought, "naw, he wouldn't be out in this"

Well dad I'm stubborn as heck and within the first hr I was getting bites so I figured well this is a good sign

We have fished quite a lot at night and have done well. Usually after it warms up more. You need a good underwater light to draw the plankton in, then the minnows, then the Crappie come in. A Coleman lantern works. It's really fun when you can get into them. Good Luck. You also may want to get a lighted bobber.
