Bang! Nice Pike!

With the heat of the summer there hasn’t been as much activity during the day Fishing wise. The heat drives them to the bottom and make them lethargic throughout the day. So the last few days we’ve been heading out for the night bite once things cool off. As you can see we’ve been having pretty good results.  Mostly Catfish and bass, but we’re pretty happy with this monster Pike.
this rain and cooler temperatures the last couple days is bringing the river level up so I’m anticipating some good smallmouth bass fishing and maybe even a Walleye or two leading up to the weekend

Often night  fishing produces bigger fish because prey species become active after dark, triggering feeding behavior in bass, catfish , and other gamefish that avoid daytime boat traffic, fishing pressure  and heat.

Have fun and try something differnt-

Feed a Rat to Bass at Night

At night, all kinds of critters break the water surface—insects, bats, amphibians, and rodents. Try a rat lure- one of those pond monsters might smash it.

Have fun , be safe and take a kid fishing .
