The Truth About Night Fishing


Why Night Fishing Beats Day Fishing Any Day of the Week

Without a doubt, night fishing is better than day fishing for many reasons.

One of the biggest reasons is the size of the fish you can catch at night. In almost every circumstance, you will catch bigger fish at night than you can during the day. There are several reasons for this. Bigger fish tend to feed at night. Maybe the reason these fish were able to get so big is because they were smart enough to not eat during the day when dinner may include a fisherman's hook inside it.

Note: One other huge reason why you will have a big advantage at night is that you can use the Evening Secret at night. Why will this increase your catches? Check it out to see. (http://www.eveningsecretfishing.com/specialsecret/night-day.php)

I like to think the big fish just sit around all day and take bets on which little fish is going to get caught by a fisherman. Ok, maybe that is a little far fetched, but it's fun to imagine.

Bigger fish also seem to feed on baitfish in more shallow water than during the day.

Since the fish are less likely to associate night time to fishermen, they tend to take the bait with less resistance and hesitation. Almost like they are thinking to themselves "There is no way this is a fisherman's bait, it midnight for crying out loud". This results in better hooking of the fish.

Maybe it's the fact that fish are more likely to feed based on sound and vibration at night, unlike the day when they can also use vision.

Since you will be catching bigger fish at night, you can also use bigger bait. Personally, I find it easier to use bigger lures anyway, so it works out better for me at the same time.

You don't have to worry about all the other boats zipping around you at night, like you do during the day. This alone is enough to make some fishermen want to only fish at night. The peaceful serenity at night is hard to beat.

If you fish at night in the summertime, you will also appreciate the cooler weather compared to fishing during the day.

If you have never been night fishing before, you need to get out there and try it at least once. You may never want to fish during the day again!

Fishing in the Air (Joanna Cotler Books)



Fishing in the Air (Joanna Cotler Books)

Early in the blue-black morning, a father and son slip out of the house with their fishing poles and a can of worms. But this is no ordinary fishing trip. With their lines and bobbers, they cast high into the air to catch the breeze, the sky, the sun, and best of all -- some wonderful memories.

In her first picture book, Sharon Creech, author of the Newbery Medal winner Walk Two Moons, teams up with Caldecott Honor artist Chris Raschka to create a beautifully lyrical and richly imagined tale about the powerful bond between a father and son.

Fly-Fishing the Flats
*118 color photos
* 25 line drawings
* 8 x 11
* Illustrated guide to tackle, tactics, species, habitat, destinations
* Drawings of saltwater knots and casting techniques
* Especially useful for fly fishers making the transition from fresh water to salt

The recent popularity of saltwater fly fishing has created the need for a book that presents the fundamentals of stalking and catching wary flats species. This clearly illustrated and beautifully photographed guide covers basic equipment (rods, reels, line, leaders, flies, clothing); techniques (tying knots, casting, stalking fish); species (bonefish, permit, tarpon, snook, barracuda, redfish, jacks, stripers, bluefish, false albacore, bonito, sea trout, and weakfish); habitat (tides, wind, and structure); and destinations (Caribbean, Mexico, Florida Keys, Outer Banks, Chesapeake Bay, New England coast). It also includes a detailed photo sequence on the double haul, a distance-casting technique crucial for saltwater anglers.

Barry and Cathy Beck are among the most recognized names in fly fishing. They contribute photographs and articles to all the major fly-fishing magazines, have written several books, and are much-sought after tackle and travel consultants. They live in Benton, Pennsylvania.

Land of Little Rivers: A Story in Photos of Catskill Fly Fishing



Land of Little Rivers: A Story in Photos of Catskill Fly Fishing
A stunning photographic portrait of the hallowed streams where American fly-fishing had its beginnings. The Beaverkill, Willowemoc, Neversink, Esopus, Schoharie, and Delaware--the rivers of angling pioneers Thaddeus Norris, Robert Barnwell Roosevelt, Theodore Gordon, and many others--are celebrated in this gorgeous book of photographs and text. In three major sections, Land of Little Rivers presents historical and physical profiles of the rivers; classic rods, reels, and flies; and engaging stories of the people, events, and developments that constitute the Catskill fly-fishing tradition. Author Austin McK. Francis, noted angling historian and biographer and acknowledged authority on the history of Catskill fly fishing, has a home in the Catskill Mountains and has fished there for more than thirty-five years. Famed photographer and avid fly fisher Enrico Ferorelli, a regular contributor to National Geographic and Smithsonian magazines, spent five months creating the most evocative portfolio of photos ever made of these historic rivers. Together they have produced an exquisite, museum-quality work, one that captures magnificently the beauty and passion so central to the sport Izaak Walton called "the gentle art."
