bass night fishing is fun... depends how early you want to wake up?? if you go and are on the water before dawn topwater will work till the sun gets up, if it's overcast it will work longer. when its hot out, the fishing usually shuts off midday until evening again. but on a private pond it could be different
Great. :clap: Thanks for the info. I don't know how early we will be able to get there or not but hopefully we can get there around 5am, even though the sun is already starting to come up. but I think it will still be good. :think: ....... at least I hope so! :lol:

If it's private water it shouldnt matter much when you fish
Yes, the water is private. No one really fishes it unless it is a summer camp that my friend, the owner, runs, or if I go and fish it. That is about all the action that it gets. So the fish really aren't too spooky and hang out in the shallows almost all day, even in hot weather. there are a number of weeds in the shallows though.

Hey wise guy...some of us resemble that remark.
So, don't push your luck!
However, IF you were to invite a certain TROUTDUDE to go bass fishing with you...then, a certain TROUTDUDE; just might be willing to forgive the errors of your ways.

troutdude said:
OUCH! (for the record, I was WORKING on a Saturday...and the week before was filling in to teach Sunday school). Don't believe everything you hear Spydey!
Hahahahahaha :lol: you guys crack me up!!! Thanks for the humor. And TD, I no offense intended. Just 'cause one is 50+ years in age doesn't mean that they can't get around, right. I mean they still can use their hover round mobile chair, right.
:lol: hahahahahahaha Just kidding. My friend did just fine. My dad is going to be 52 this year and he istill runs to work and rides his bike to and from work. My grandpa is in his later 70s and still kicks his son's and grandson's butts in basketball. He can take on 3 of us at once and beat us all ... without breaking a sweat. And two of us 3 are high school basketball stars!!! (Not me!!
)
So I very much respect my elder leaders.
And TD, if you would like to go, you are welcome to join us. Do you have a boat or a floating device you could bring? It is better fished from a floating device. We have one but it will only fit 2 comfortably, and 3 tightly.

i would get there a little before light..like 5am or something...throw divers like i did last time!!!
You're going, right brandon? Yes, I was going to pick up some divers and poppers too. You're going to make/tie some poppers up, right?

Given the circumstances if you could get on the water at sun up you should be in good shape regardless, depending on how productive the pond is...it may not matter.
Thank you Colby. Good luck on your endeavors and competitions.
:clap:

I would start out about 45 minutes before sunrise at least. My philosophy is its never too early. I have caught some nice bass when i could barely see the water. Typically in summer the bite picks up when the sunrises and for a few more hours. Then fish deeper or under docks or the shady side of structures. Thats usually when the pleasure boaters show up and I roll out. Lakes with clear water and little structure are a pain to catch anything during the day. Evenings into sunset are good too.
Thanks for the info catfishman89.
So it looks like the majority have stated that nights/mornings are the best time to go.
Thanks again for the info everyone .... :lol: and the laughs :lol:
Take care and have fun on the water!!
