My first attempt nigthime crappie fishing

netted me not a single crappie. Anyone with advise about night fishing on rough river or nolin please feel free to offer help.

Surely someone has some insight.

Load your boat at northfork on Rough and drive under bridge. Just past bridge there is a 90 degree turn. Hang lanterns somewhere around that 90 degree turn. I have fished that area during the spring and under the lights for crappie for a while now. Pretty good spot.

Thank you i will give it a try.

As I recall the boys caught all the fish and we were just trying to stay awake. :)
We did not light the world on fire at that spot, but we did catch some fish.

I have fished that spot many times at night and during the day and done good. As far as the boys catching all the fish, and us sleeping... no way with them boys in the boat. The other spot that is pretty good is just under that same bridge at Northfork. Hang some lanterns and take about four kids under the age of 12 and you are bound to stay up all night.
