Fishing at night
Submitted by AmericanBen on Sun, 2010-04-11 22:47
I have never fished at night before except in the sounds. Friday night looks pretty promising but was wondering if sharks will be a problem fishing the 5FB behind GI. What can we expect to catch? Is bait the best option or can you jig or use soft plastics? Will anything I catch count against our bag limit on Saturday? Any insight would be appreciated?

as far as im aware your bag
as far as im aware your bag limit is 24hrs so if you go at night and then you go the next morning it will be the same bag limit etc.

Sharks arent a problem if you're targetting them, hehe. Drifting or berleying?

not sure Matt
There are plenty of articles about anchoring up and berleying.......my only concern on that is that you committing to one spot which may be unproductive.
Do the fish move in to 5 after dark like the shallows?
By the way lucky you didn't come out last Thursday.....I only made it out to around 100 meters instead of making it out to the containers. Wind and swell made for a rough day.......caught fish on all rods except my new one; Okuma Salinas 2 from Honsu.
