Night Fishing Tips That Matter! ( Beginner AND Advanced )

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.

How To Catch Bass In The Heat! ( Its Easy! )

Quit struggling when its hot! Bass become really predictable on hot days. If you know where to look and what to throw, catching fish is no problem... even in the hottest weather! If you're going to go to the lake and sweat, you might as well learn the right places to fish. Pay close attention as Tim points out key cover elements and demonstrates the baits he uses to pick them apart. 

Many anglers give up on fishing during the day during the heat of Summer. They switch to night fishing or just give up all together. However, there are a few anglers that understand what a huge help the heat can be to fish positioning and predictability. The hotter it gets, the easier it is to catch the bass! When the peak of Summer heat arrives, shallow bass position under the thickest pieces of overhead cover. If you're looking down an entire bank of shallow cover you can instantly see the 2 or 3 spots where the largest fish will sit. 

With the guess work removed from the equation, all you need are a handful of reliable baits to catch the fish. Below you'll find links to our favorite flipping baits, frogs, and swim jigs. We've included the best sizes, our favorite colors, as well as the gear we use to fish them effectively.
