Night Fishing Tips That Matter! ( Beginner AND Advanced )

Показать описание
Get out of the heat and catch bigger bass! Summer night fishing is so much fun! If you're tired of getting beat up by the sun and grinding it out in the heat, it might be time for you to hit the lake in the dark. Today we're covering everything from the basics on equipment to advanced tricks to get bites in every moon phase.

Once you're used to the darkness, night fishing is easier than fishing in the day. Most nights the fishing is very good, though it will take some time to learn the fine details. If you want to be consistent, we've got some tips that will save you years of trial of error. We're covering everything from which moon phase for different water clarities, to how much weight you should use to stay connected to your jig in the dark.

Below you'll find links to the exact baits we discussed in the video. We've included our favorite weights, favorite colors, rigging components, and some of the gear we use to consistently catch fish. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Good tips. Find you a headlamp with both white and red lights. That red won’t attract as many bugs.

I remember chucking jitter bugs off the dock on the Trent River at night as a kid back in the 90's. Pretty much fishing audibly it was so dark, but those smallies blasted those old things

I’ve found the Energizer LED Cap Light to be exceptional.
It clips on the brim of a hat and has a one click red light that is bright enough to see knots, land a monster, and illuminate the eyes of mountain lions and whatnot creeping up on you, but is subtle enough to not advertise your whereabouts or make you blind when you turn it off.
Two & three clicks are regular LED bright & brighter.
It also tilts downward if needed.
I’ll also carry one of those “as seen on tv” compact flashlights that is very bright and you can focus on an object and disorient with the flashing mode.
BUT I try not to use either of them unless I have to.
You’ll be surprised how well you can see without a light once you’re eyes get used to darkness.
That being said, I too have missed the water completely on occasion throwing a Hudd into trees on a hillside, over houses, etc. Like Matt.

As one of the few channels who films night bass fishing as well, between my dad and I having fished at night for decades you hit a lot of important points and like you said every lake is different. I would also put creature baits in their own category as well i.e brush hogs/lizards. As for the full moon and no moon aspect crawdads seem to be eaten more at the extremes of the moon such as a day before through the day after of the full moon and no moon phase, so that jig usually comes in handy on those particular days. Colors changing based on the moon phase in my opinion have a lot to do with how the bait looks in the water and the profile of the bait. Darker baits like black/red, black/blue and anything primarily black are darker than the water and can still be seen whereas a lighter color in pitch black just gets muted out. On a full moon pretty much any color can be used especially for reaction but with creature baits you typically want to stick with the purples and the smokes and even green pumpkin seems to kill em at night. Tungsten waits on your worms and creature baits is always a must. We like to add a glass bead and not pin the weight that way you get some sound to help the fish locate and or just piss them off for that better stronger bite. It’s been so interesting to see other channels fish at night and their opinions on what to use because you come to find out your choices at night are not as limited as some of the newer night fisherman think it is!

Mr. Allen, Very well done discussion of a topic seldom discussed. I especially appreciate the nuances which you shared gained from experience. I am now an old guy and remember when night fishing was a black jitterbug hoping that the plop plop plop would suddenly become a wham.

I don’t even fish and I still enjoyed this video.

Straight worms are also awesome at night! It doesn't have to be a curly tail; straight worms still displace water, which fish FEEL with their lateral line. I catch tons at night on finesse and magnum finesse worms on a ¼oz Spot Remover head. Redbug, junebug, or black, usually, but I have even loaded the boat with a watermelonseed Zoom finesse worm! Also, the Shad Rap has caught alot for me at night. Things that don't move much water at all STILL catch fish at night. Put a rattle in it; spray BANG on it-ALWAYS. Sounds like you invaded an osprey's habitat! 🦅

So helpful, been doing a lot of night fishing lately and I’ve had a few questions that you specifically address in this video right from the get go. You guys are the best channel when it comes to answering questions and giving solid, useable information. Love it, thank you!

I love night fishing. I throw a big buzzbait with the blade colored with a blue permanent marker over nickel. I love hearing those big ones hitting that buzzbait out there in the dark.
One good thing about night fishing, even the little bass hit hard.

You guys should upload these “everything you need to know” videos as podcasts. That way I can listen at work without killing my battery or even while I’m driving to the lake with very little signal. Great tips, I started night fishing about a month ago and it feels like cheating, my lake is clear with smallmouth and largemouth here in central Texas and the chatterbait does all the work for me, I can’t wait to get my hands on the big blade chatterbait and fix up a custom night color to try. I think it will be money!

Matt, I think this is one of your best (most informative) videos ever. Kudos to you! Miss you all you TB folks.

Look for moonshine beaches with white sand, sling a dark spinnerbait 1/3 down.

The other night my cousin and I were fishing a Wednesday night club tournament, and we had two in the live well for about 6.5 lb's we'd caught off Shakey heads and only had two and a half hours left to fish to get five in the boat. We roll up on this dock that's well known but it's buoy'ed off for people to swim because it is a campground area. I pick up a regular war eagle single Colorado blade spinnerbait and put a twin tail grub on it and I'll let it fly. Let it sink to the bottom, give it one good jerk to get the blade going and start slowly winding, about six cranks of the reel handle and Bam..💥, fish number three in the boat 4 lb.. next cast, exact same result 3.5lb.. next cast no fish, next cast I'm winding it back and I feel it hit the blade, I let it fall back to the bottom let it sit for a second pop my rod tip to get the blade going and before I could start reeling.. BAM..💥💥 5.5LB!! We won big fish with that 5.5lb n took 1st with just under 20lbs that night!!! And before we even took off at 5:45 I asked him had he thrown a blade all summer yet and he said no I don't think they're set right to hit a blade just yet... Well, long story short.. he was proved wrong almost three cast in a row!!! Now ask me what he has tied on for tonight 😂😂😂😂! Keep in mind this is the coosa River I'm talking about.. how can you not have a blade tied on fishing the coosa River at night time!?!?! But it really doesn't matter where you're at, at night time that single Colorado blade will get them most of the time, play with your retrieves, and just sit back and wait for the rod to load up!!
