Any tips for night fishing?
I was fishing last night between 8-10pm, the sun set at 8:02pm. The striper were pretty active on the top water, jumping for prey; it was exciting to see. I cast everything I had with no luck, not even a nibble. I didn't have live bait, but I threw top water plugs, metal lip plugs, pencil poppers, a whooper plopper, swim baits, glide baits, and jigged with bucktails. My leader is probably 10-12' of 25# monofilament. Lures were tied directly to the leader; I forgot swivels at home. They weren't interested in any of it. It's possible I just got skunked, but I was fishing all the above right in front of their faces for two hours without a single nibble. Just wondering if anyone might be able to share any tips for better success in the future. Thanks!
