You don’t know me but I will always remember and respect you. I am a recovered alcoholic with over 20 years clean and I remember when you lost your friend, you really tried to help him and that could have been me so much respect sir. I fish at night on Wylie and it’s my favorite time to fish. The jet skis and all that nonsense is done for the day so it’s very peaceful. With all the hate and negativity going on in the world fishing let’s me get away from it all. Everything you mentioned is spot on and I have caught so many bass at night if you haven’t tried it you really should. And while fishing for bass at night I have caught some big catfish hit my bass lures so be ready. Thanks

Bo , youre right about what you said , All Due Respect in the most Respectful way possible i would like to point out that i feel most anglers make the simple mistake of they fergotten about scent because fish can smell your bait from over 2 miles away. i mean some of the best catfish i personally have caught i caught them by trusting scent. prime example for new years day 2022 i Texas Rigged a lil smokies sausage on a treble hook and caught a catfish at sunset. so scent can make a difference. just saying

I'm a big night fisherman. I love using the chatterbait, topwater, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits. I also started throwing soft plastics with rattles on them. I've definitely had a lot of luck with the chatterbait, though.

I've spent alot of time fishing illinois reservoirs in deep summer from 9pm to day light. I keep it simple, 1/2oz black on black jig n pig. Catch more bigger bass on that lure than anything. I like to keep the deck clean for safety so I usually only bring 2 rods. Both jig rods.

Dude!! I now have a mini man crush on you!! Lol - You mentioned the Jitterbug!! I learned about the Jitterbug prolly in the 70's & have been fishin' a BLACK one at night since 1980! The size just below the Musky size & I learned to modify the bill with a pair of pliers to get a better "gurgle!" NOTHING has out performed this bait for me at night ever! The blow ups at my feet have been epic!! (Must be stealthy, quiet & NO light!) 2'nd. Your bead mod on a Texas Rig is nice! Never thought of that & WILL try! I knew I picked a great channel to sub to!!! Just to add... I am a bank fisherman. NO NEED for a boat at night BUT... Be careful! Snakes can see/sense you & you'll see them from a distance swimming toward you! MOVE when you have to! (I've been bit 6 times. How dedicated or stupid are you??)

Fluke Master , i have learned so much from watching Fluke Master , Bill Dance , Scott Martin Randy Blaukat ,Tactical Bassin here on youtube then i would at a actual school fishing classroom. I would like to say from my own experience that 1 mistake i personally feel anglers make is that they dont trust and or rely on scent. i say this because i have had days where i would use very scenty baits loaded with scent and i ended up catching 3 to 5 catfish then i had days where i didnt use scent and still caught them , im not saying you cant catch them on non scented baits by any means. im just saying dont forget about scented baits like lil smokies sausage or hotdogs and you'll slay 3 to 5 catfish ina single day.

You have your thumb on the spool the whole time/know or feel the spool slowing down. You also just have to accept it will happen more because you can't see if your lure is headed towards a branch at 100mph until you hear it.
