FULL MOON FISHING - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I believe a full moon and new moon make for killer fishing, a few nights before, during, and after the phases when it comes to Sandbass. The bigger tide swings make for faster current which really churns up the bottom and riles up the SB at night. They love all the little crabs and clams that are brought up off of the bottom. The faster the current the better the bite is for those nocturnal suckers. Which puts it around Full moons and new moons.

Also up in Canada a few nights before and after the full moon really get the SMB flared up during spawning season. The full moon brings out the pigs!

Larger tide movement improves most fisheries. Full and new moons cause the larger tides. I wish I got to pick my fishing trips around tides but I go when I can and make the best out of it. Night fishing with a full moon is nice. Mike

I'm not sure if it does by my experience, but according to this site, new moon and full moon makes for better fishing. My dad told me about this site. He lives in Florida and checks it for fishing all the time.
