Flies at night mental block
Hi all, great forum. It is good to know that there are many more fishing obsessed people out there besides myself! I've been fishing for stripers at night for a few years now, mostly with plugs and sometimes eels. I have this weird mental block with fishing flies... I can't imagine how a bass can hone in on a 3" sand eel fly whipping through the current on a pitch black night. A fly sends out no vibrations through the water and makes no noise. I'm not naive enough to think that bass cannot locate flies in the dark, but I am wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the issue, or maybe some experiences that will motivate people like myself to throw some flies at night?
