how many of you troll at night? we get them casting cranks, roadrunners and beetlespins. we know they bite at night under lights so why not trolling too? you dont hear about it or see people doing it. maybe paint your favorite cranks with glow paint?(i know the bass love the ones i have painted and used!) maybe even a crank attached to a beetlespin rig? spinners with glow blades? slow down and up the noise/vibration a bit? lets not forget that scent trail either!
I'd spill my beer

:yikes BEER! in a boat! thats odd. lmao
those were the days. not anymore in my boat. i dont even like my passengers to drink in my boat(i havent ban it yet though lol) it just gives mr green jeans an opening to harass you if he wants.
Key phrase..... No ban

Any walleye stories?

One of the Patoka guides has about give up on guiding even bass. And got a report finally from a friend that lives near Patoka today, in July they will nite troll for walleyes as it gets good for a few eyes for a while. Walleye has picked up on Monroe finally even tho you might only catch a couple., hit and miss on Brookville big time. It’s a shame as Patoka was always my favorite lake for crappie, blue gill, and bass, so will start hitting Monroe again with Patoka at nite maybe for backup especially for the eyes.Quote:

but this is why we stopped there. Attachment 310578 all the fish we caught there were 8.5 to 11". last night was about the same but with 2- 18" eyes in the cooler. not many bites but the size made up for the time spent. we tried all different offerings down to ice flies but they just wouldnt cooperate.
I slow troll, spider rig all summer at night with good success. Put out the lights and seems the baitfish just follows me wherever I go.
