Night Fishing

[granttw]

Will be night fishing in maze creek tomorrow night with lights & minnows. Last two trips havent been very productive with the trip a week ago ending with a whole lot of minnows and zero fish. Fished the channel last week. We always tie to a tree and fish all kinds of depths. Any advice or suggestions? Will post with a report thursday.

Not many reports about light fishing. Did talk to a guy that had caught a few tied up to the 245 bridge over the channel .

I was thinking bridge piers might be a productive spot. We are going to fish a deeper flat this time and see what happens. Thank you

if the last two trips were not good, then move out to the main lake. Obviously Maze Creek is not the place to be. You can't do any worse.

Ended up all catching our limit of cats (with 4-5 of them being pretty good sized). Then keeper 8 white bass and 3 crappie between us. Fished 28 FOW at many different depth. Still not a great night but the catfish fights were fun and the meteor shower was awesome!!

Saying "Main lake" is very broad, but i understand not doing the same thing if its not working.. which we did, and we got different results. We've had plenty of nights over the last few years where we limited out on crappie and threw back 100+ shorts so i know those spots can be productive and it's hard to move very far away from what has worked in the past. I think our next trip we are actually going to go shallower, so we'll see what happens
