Sunrise is magical but ... when it comes to trophy hunting.... nights win it hands down ( for me)... my best fish are always in less then 5' of water... most are in under 3'...I only make a half dozen day light bass trip a year... I'm always dissapointed with the day light size...besides, I like the coolness of the night.. i cant stand the sun..or the crowds...

that there are people who still want day lite, top water
fish over biggies. Biggies are caught at night. Period,
end of story! You want day lite biggies, hire a charter.
And believe me there is as much beauty and mystery
about a night on the beach as at dawn. Further, if
you fish with a good partner there is a bond that
forms at night that is missing during the day. I speak
only the truth on these matters.

Ditto. When I was in the surf with RIRockhound his parents thought we were vampires.
