That was me coming in behind you on a PA. Looked very fishy out there, but nobody wanted to play. Stayed on the water to see the sunset. Dolphins started to go on the chew as soon as the lights went out. Amongst other predators. You could feel the tension on the water. It was actually kinda eerie that night coming in. Felt like I was being watched. . Hope to get out there soon.

I stayed out after dark the day before and I definitely could agree with that. It’s gets really quite quickly and then you can hear things all around you. Dolphins hitting bait, the bait ball moving across the surface, the sea lions breathing and jumping. But what do you like to use for lures with the sun goes down? Do you switch to glow in the dark irons? Thanks!

Try frozen squid on a glow iron or on a swimbait head.

Some fresh stuff would be nice. . I don't have a ton of experience fishing in the dark, specifically on the kayak alone in the ocean. I do like the experience of watching the sunset while on the water. It is pretty humbling, and what you described is pretty spot on. The surf that night was flat, but coming in after dark when any kind of moderate surf is present, brings a whole different set of challenges. Especially on a loaded Pro Angler. Getting destroyed at night on a kayak is one thing, but on a Pro Angler is something I have yet to experience. Back to your question specifically, I do know plenty of guys that have caught fish on live bait using a dropper style rig. Chris is probably the go to guy though, and the fore mentioned technique might be the better option. If you are interested in giving it a go in the near future, give me a shout out. I will probably start heading down with a little more frequency in the next couple of weeks. I reside in Los Angeles County, so there is some commute involved, but I got lots of free time on my hands these next couple months. . Be safe.
