I caught some schoolies on a yellow darter the other day. The fish seemed so pissed off at it! I suspect they may be more effective at night, but "you never know".. I had actually thought of that line from Zenos fine book after I was fishing it. I was about to take it off and suddenly a fish around 20" or so crashed the darter. 2 more casts and he was pinned on it. Cool stuff. I'm a big fan of that book BTW, the thing is (and this is expressed throughout the book) there is no "gospel" to catching stripers. Sometimes breaking the "rules" is the only thing that works.
