When fishing a brush pile or bridge piling at night do you just stay put in that one spot? Also is it best just to stick to using minnows?
IMHO: When i`m fishing a brushpile @ night after I`ve marked it with my Graph and I see fish on it,I first target the fish that are hanging around it by casting a jig or a spinner to pick off the more aggressive fish before I move in and start vertical fishing the pile.If I deploy a fishing light i`ll use minnows but only above the pile not down in the pile & I don`t think I need to explain why however I might risk dropping a jig down into the center of it.If I`m fishing a bridge pilling with a light @ night and I sure it`s holding fish, I`ll usually just tie off and vertical .During the day I normally stick and move on bridge pillings until I catch several in one spot before moving again.There is no hard and fast rule just use whatevery works for you.
