    I would say yes for night fishing during the summer --- during the day in the winter and/or night (not me though), you got me

    Re: full moon fishing (quadfreak327)

    During the full moon in the warmer months I use a spinnerbait, buzzbait and a jerkbait more at night than usual. Full moon in November I always throw the buzz bait with a clacker and wear those big mouths out. I also use lighter color soft plastics on bright nights. Most time fish tend to feed/move higher in the water column during the full moon times. Just my .02.

    Re: full moon fishing (bronze_back_hunter)

    For me a full moon phase is the least productive time. This is because I fish mostly tidal rivers and the full moon causes extreme tide fluctuations. The extreme changes in water level just seems to shut the fish down and it makes riding around the river very hazardous.
