Assuming you’re abiding by state and local guidelines, you really should give fly fishing at night a shot. On one hand, it is as easy as doing what you do during the daytime… only now, after the sun has set. But like in any other ecosystem, streams change in relation to the solar and lunar motions. And some very interesting things happen when you’re angling by moonlight.
L. James Bashline’s 1973 book Night Fishing for Trout is an excellent volume on this topic. Reading it not only informs you on night fishing, it entertains you and encourages you to get out there. Certainly new fads have come in the 50 years since publication, but the core tenets remain the same.
Whether you grab this groovy first edition or the expanded reprint, Night Fishing for Trout is worth reading.
