I'm curious how you target stripers/hybrids/whites at night. Is it much different than day fishing? I always figured they scattered and were hard to find.

Street lights, underwater lights attract the bait fish and the bait fish attract everything else. Once you know which lights produce then it's like taking candy away from a baby!! I have been doing this since the late 90's. Even now the fish will surprise me. That is why it is called fishing and not catching. I can say this--I have been skunked during the daylight hours but never have I been skunked at night.

The fun part was watching your mono line grow 3 times its size with ice as it come up as you reeled it in The catching was fun too.
