[cool]Figured I would just post this up for some input. Last couple months or so I've been hitting up lake mead after hours when the sun goes down. Most of the time its just to bait fish for cats.
Recently i've been spending most of the time throwing dark colored top water popping lures. I get alot of strikes/blowups but mostly they are not sticking on. I've tried waiting to set the hook,set the hook fast, dif retrieves slow fast,changed out the hooks etc. and still same results.
Im wondering if this is just more of a investigative strike or nudge its not the regular slam and grab strike. Maybe its just a nighttime thing? Maybe the wrong lure? not sure thats why I posted it here for some insight.
What are your guys experiences bass fishing at night?
