No.. nobody is talking about fishing at night under a full moon. Moon causes gravitation pulls and tides and can effect fishing just like barometric pressure changes.

So it has nothing to do with Full or New moon just the moon has to be up in the sky day or night for the fishing to be good?

Hey Mike let's not get moony or lunny about this topic!

As I understand from the replies it must be night fishing we are talking about with the moon phases.

Full moon the fish that like light at night bite. New moon the fish that like dark at night bite.

Does anyone remember a calendar with fish marked on some days of the month? Are those really good days to go fishing? How do they figure it out? Where do you get a fish calendar?

If gas price is a problem get back to basics: aluminum boat with 10 - 25 hp and trailer. Easy to tow with most cars and easy on gas. That is what I have and am going fishing.
