Better at night is kind of a relative term for walleye. It may be precieved as better because the fish are easier to locate at night. Walleye use every advantage to get prey, and one of their biggest assets is those marble eyes. They can slip into the shallows late at night undetected and hammer the forage. The patterns I have seen with walleye is although they may be great night hunters, they will eat at any time of the day. 1ft to 100ft of water and any light conditions. The trick is finding them. It is alot easier to cast the shore line at night knowing they will be their vs searching the whole lake all day. They will also use muddy water for cover just like they do at night. Some of my best days on the lake have been in water that looks like chocolate milk. I am not a shore fisherman. I would much rather go to the fish rather than wait for the fish to come by me. But bank tanglers do stand their best chance for walleye at night. [fishin]
