• Night Fishing

    Went night fishing for crappie over the long weekend. We used a underwater light and within 30 minutes had hundreds of shad schooling around.

    Didn't take long for the crappie to figure out where they were. We limited it out in 2 hours. A lot of fun if you haven't tried it.

      The food chain. Looks like you are using a regular propane lantern.

      AWSOME. I'm wanting to try that this weekend. I have the lights but haven't had much luck before. How do you set up? Over brush... in deep water, or do I need to just anchor down anywhere and drop the lights? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

      Yes, in my opinion and in my experience it would be best over brush in a little deeper water. Best of luck. And make sure to report back.

      I took your advice last and fished over brush 20-25 fow and managed to come home with my limit(15 fish). I was going to make another post and not hijack this one but couldn't figured out how to. Sorry. Thanks again for all the help. This is why I like this site. Good people with good advice. Thanks.Attachment 269519Attachment 269520

      Reminds me of my childhood when me and my pop would always fish at night tied up next to a tree. Always had success fishing that way. Nice job!
