Has anyone ever tried trolling with crank baits at night in a full moon?

No but got to see Saturn at midnight, trailing behind the moon

crankbaits at night. treble hooks arn't very forgiving in the daylight much less in the dark but i don't see why it wouldn't work. you would just have to be real carefull unhooking fish.

I would definitely have a light on board. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried it. I’m itching to.

I night fish sometimes but not trolling crank baits. I anchor down and drop a couple underwater green LED lights down and then fish shiners around the edge of the light ring.

So you think it better to drop the light in the water instead of hanging one over the water?
