I may adjust my tactics or lure color/selection, but if the fish are there during new moon conditions, they will be there during full moon as well. They may adapt a different feeding routine, but they'll be there.

I will fish around structure (if tide is right) but I have had good outings down at the canal on full moon nights. What's funny is that I had to remind myself that even though typical theory has it that you use light colors on bright nights and dark colors on dark nights.
In those outings where I was getting fish, I had gone against the typical theory and used black Slug-gos on moonlit nights and nailed 40"+ fish. As I stated earlier, bring a variety of lures and colors so that you are pigeon-holed into a limited selection.

Best of all, bring a friend so that if the fish don't bite, you have someone to blame.
