I look forward to the nights around both the new and full moons. Bright full moon nights can be a a challenge but fishing them hard usually yields some nice fish. My numbers generally go down on bright nights but every season I seem to find a fish or two over 40 pounds on or within a few nights of the full moon. Structure like big boulders and jetties cans offer dark shaded spots when the moon isn't directly overhead and I think the fish like using those areas as cover. I also find that areas that have dark bottoms covered on weed fish better for me than light sandy bottoms when the moon is bright.
