If you liked fishing first light so much, why not try last light?
I prefer fishing at night, and when I go to my favorite ponds, I'm setting off as everyone else is pulling their boats out.
When fishing the AM, you see the world as it "wakes up", but when you fish the PM, you see when it "shuts down".
It's not always as quiet as you would think, and the fishing can be phenominal!
Just as with stripers, freshwater bass LOVE to hunt at night, and can be caught out in open water. Plus, if the pond you are on has native wildlife, you might encounter them as well. I have come across beavers, muskrats, HUGR snapping turles, Great Blue herons, owls, osprees and loons just to name a few.
As long as you feel comfortable fishing in the dark (as most of us already do) then there isn't much difference except that you need to have more control of your cast. (You may have a hard time judging the distance to the shore, until you eyes become used to the low light surroundings.)
If you haven't already, you should give it a try!
