Patrick, I'm not blaming anybody. As a matter of fact, I don't see why you're all in a bunch about it. His reply was right on the money - Fish at night, with effort and a little common sense and you'll get bigger fish than during the day. Pretty much sums it up for 90% of us. He's probably shocked that a fellow in your position, wouldn't be sawing wood evey second from an hour after sunrise til an hour before sunset less travel time. While we wouldn't turn in our lives, wives, kids, and jobs to have the opportunity to fish from dusk til dawn, you at least have that chance. Instead, you're on the internet every few hours around the clock.

He's right though, if you want to catch big fish, and that's what you say, you need to think in tides and moons AFTER the little kids go to sleep. You want to know how this wind will impact that tide drop at 12:30 in the morning. You want a cup of coffee before dunkies closes and to be there when they open up smelling like fish with eelslime on the brim of your hat and striper slime on your right shoulder and back because you lugged a nice fish out over your shoulder.

You seem to be an intelligent kid but a bit dense at times. Think long and hard about what you want to accomplish this season or at least IF you want to accomplish anything. Don't babble on about it. Just do it. Get out and FISH
