When fishing for striped bass,
you should remember that night-time is the right-time. These predators prefer
feeding in shallow waters during low-light hours. Since I do most of my fishing
in the surf, on foot, and not on a boat, this makes going out after the sun sets
mandatory. Here is a 7 lb bass caught at 1AM using a black feather and bucktail
"fly" called a "deceiver"...made famous by Lefty Kreh. Pitch black out using
a black fly and yet this bass slammed it vicously. Stripers have keen eyesight
and can see at night as well as you and I could at noon.
