When my night fishing friend gives the answer, it will be with the weight of years of fishing experience. In the cool of the night, one may have to vary the colors of lures and plastics and maybe go in for heavier tackle in order to feel the lure on the line. In addition, you must remember that you will meet the bigger fish so you need to have stronger equipment.

Another of his tips on fishing is a suggestion to use one of the following types of lures for fishing at night: Plastic worms, poppers and wobblers topwater lures, hair and rubber jibs (weighing at least 3/8 ounce or heavier).
