Title: Fluke/seabass fishing times
Post by: brian8980 on May 30, 2010, 09:44:59 AM

Once again, this may be a stupid question, but can you fish for fluke and seabass at night productively?  I have only fished for them during the day and just wondering what the opinions of the experts are.... Thanks.

I have no doubt they can be caught at nite but no one really does it. It's not really necesary because they bite just fine during the day.

Nite timers usually target the more finiky stipers and weakfish.

I've had some very productive nights with fluke from shore/piers.  Though these areas have alot of lights. 

Have caught some while out on the water at night while bass fishing, though not like during the day.
