Ive had a few sessions where we would be getting them until twelfe at night. Dont know if they will bite straight through or stop at some stage. We only stopped cause the carp got active.

Definately Yes, especially on Topwater.

Here is a 4.5Kg I got at night last year from Inanda.

Very good!!!Ive fished twice at night before and feel that im not doing it enough...
The both times i fish at night was with normal colours i would use in the day.
This beaut was caught on the vaal river in spawn last year at about 19:00/20:00...

most def, i tried night bassing fishing for the first time at qwantani (sterkfontein dam) best thing about night fishing you can fish all the best (no fishing) spots :ifishin, its also alot more exciting as you never know wat lurks under the water:) just be very careful as safety will always be a concern unless it is secure

The only place you will find me fishing at night is at a private venue....

Best baits at night for me has been frogs. Amazingly enough, weightless Senko's worked damn well too!! Best time to fish at night is the two hours after the sun set, but we had action all the way until 11:00 and I am sure we would have kept on catching all night, but we got tired.

'n Bronze eye frog in die aand is kliier. Het ook al baie met 'n senco gevang. Hulle jag in die aand op vibrasie, so gooi die senco in laat dit val en gee dit twee vinnige plukkies. Twee sekondes later weer twee plukkies. Het een aand 17 so gevang sewe op die selfde senco. Daar was later amper niks van die wurm oor gewees nie maar hulle het aan gehou op die ding te wetter.

At a private dam on a lodge... we just could not find out what the fish were eating... The water was crystal clear and you could see big fish moving around. I'm talking swimming pool clear.

That night i wend down to the one dam. There is a big spotlight the illuminates most of the dam... They were hunting the web toed frogs at night. Next morning started throwing plastic frogs weightless, letting them fall to the bottom weightless and just lie still. fish would cruise up very very slowly and then edge closer WHOOOP ur bait is gone...

Is cool dude, moenie whaaaarie nie.

Ja, chatterbait en buzzbait sal altwee lekker werk, maar jy moet hom stadig inbring. ek het gevind dat hulle die frogs baaaaaie mis as jy hom normale spoed inbring.... Ekstra stadig in die aand, anders mis grootbek hom
