What time of day are you cats hitting the bank?

Is there any time you avoid?

...------

I been trying to get in a some early fishing at the ponds. Seems like the bite is over by like 10-10:30am but its getting hot by then anyways. Daylight until about 10am seems to be the ticket. Last year I did some night fishing at the ponds and did pretty good from like 9-midnight moon will be full probably by this next weekend which will help to see in the dark a little.

I may go out soon, very hot, humid, just to test some ponds in Richardson. I'll report back...

Hot with no luck.

There were 3 other people fishing...they got nothing either.

I'll try next time early morning or evening.

My dock is in 3ft to 8ft of water.cedar creek is very clear rt. now. night time, first 2 hrs. of light and last2 hours oflight, you might git bit. high brite sun nooooo.

I pretty much avoid the heat of the day. 12ish to 6ish.

I like go in the morning and call it a day around 11am-12pm just in time for a cold beer and some lunch

Sunup till around 11am! Also night fishing is good from 11pm until about 3am.

Plus #1.

Early morning and night fishing under the lights! Beat the heat.

9pm - 1am. I have been fishing dams lately so the heat really hasn't been affecting the fishing too much.

I go when I can.
Sometimes I sweat my butt off.

I prefer 6a-11a if I have the option.

There was a topic a few months back that addressed what I'm about to address, "no luck and not good," but I cannot find it, so here goes.

The last few times I went bank fishing, "fishing in decent ponds that I know have plenty of fish," I've had NO luck, "Zero," and it's been very frustrating. I'm doing what I've learned over the last couple years, and I've got very nice quality gear, but, to put it bluntly, lately I blow!!

Therefore, I've just about resigned myself to taking a year off, not renewing my license, and just doing other things, like trail-bike riding and crashing. I'm pretty good at that!

Carry on! Blow-away! IN65

If licenses expired on 12/31 then they would get very little renewals before March. It's super hot and August. Those fish are suspended deep and keeping cool. Just like in February fishing is hard during the extremes. Before you know it, temps will be going down and fishing will be turning on before winter. That's probably the reason for 8/31 expiration.

Always late late evening, and really...... through the night. This summer, however, has really sucked due to the heat!
