Hlokk, yeah you need the full moon, otherwise they can't see it well enough.
Yeah Brad, this was last night. This was the only one we got, Glenn hooked a good fish a couple of casts after I got this one but he dropped it after a few seconds.
Profish540, Yeah the wind has been dropping off most nights. Last night was still a bit rough on the way out then the wind dropped to zero and the water was like a millpond. Bit of swell around though.
Well done and at night. Do you do this often or just trying something different as I wouldnt have thought of using a popper at night, got me thinking now??

It was a bit lumpy Craig, as I said there was quite a big swell running. Once the wind died off though there was no surface chop.
