Standing alone under a crisp, star-filled sky, the lights across the channel twinkling invitingly in the distance with only the sound of the waves lapping gently at the shoreline, the moon illuminating the sea and the beach to myself. I am at peace; I am in heaven. I love fishing at night! Anglers fishing at night are unique in seeing a side of the sea and coast most other people may never be fortunate enough to experience. Aside from the wellbeing benefits you can get from being out at night when most others are tucked up in bed there are some other very good reasons to go nocturnal which will increase your catch rates.
FISH BEHAVIOUR
Most species of fish, if not all, become more active during the hours of darkness.
