The Moon

Last night the moon comes up and it was like you turned off the switch. Anyone else notice this?

last night just seemed more abrupt. Maybe because I was a little on the over tired side.

That's what I mean. I was into fish then got a decent one then 2 more small then just like that the moon came up and NADA. Or maybe it was because a fishing friend of mine showed up. He looked at the one on the rocks and asked when I got it. I told him 15 minutes ago so we figured the game was on. Boy were we wrong

Had fish in gansett monday in the clouds.to around 20lbs.then it cleared up an the moon came out an my bag was all wrong.so i went to the truck changed things up an moved an caught some more.Fished Gansett fri.night in beatifull water.not a touch fished bout 3/4 of a mile of rocks.nothing.Tuesday they put the fish net out.An I noticed a big decline in the catching in the bayside rocks.Dark to moon will make the fish move in the bright moon they can spread out an ambush in many little hidey holes.on the beach the might move off.they got fins they move all the time find a deep hole u'll find em.

Fished with Paul an Brian.what a good bunch o guys.hard core indeed.Paul called me at 2:15 AM said meet him at 3:15.at 3:17 i was one mile from him geared up to go an the phone rings.where the hell are ya.Funny stuff.We fished a OTW described spot in beatifull water an got a few small fish.I think the fish get the mag an stay away from them spots.no sense in goin there.
