Bass Fishing At Night The Amazing Secret

When You go bass fishing at night Underwater fishing lights are very important part of my night fishing trips and very useful to catch Some good size largemouth bass, and I want to explain why in my article today. Submerged lighting for night fishing can be used to catch both saltwater and freshwater species of fish that are predominately night feeders. These lights can give you a significant edge so think seriously about learning how to use them on your next bass fishing at night trip. In the following paragraphs I want to identify the key reasons underwater lighting used when fishing at night is so powerful.

It amazes me that very few night fisherman use this secret of life to their advantage when they are night fishing. This simple little process of life is key to the entire earth’s food chain. Once you learn how to identify the process you can exploit it and make it work to your advantage.

The process is simple and is broken down into two parts which have scientific names of “Phytoplankton” and “Zooplankton” now don’t leave , I will explain in detail what they are and how you can use them To fill your fish basket every time!

What Is Phytoplankton – And Why It Is Essential to finding bass fishing at night “honey holes”?

Phytoplankton is at the very bottom of the food chain. They are what is called the “plant form of plankton. They are made up tiny particles called “diatoms” of which there is golden algae, and green algae, and also what is called “cyanobacteria”. And you all are probably thinking what does this have to do with night fishing! All you really need to remember here is that without Phytoplankton there would be no food chain. Phytoplankton is at the very bottom of the food chain and is the process that kick starts the entire food chain process.

The “Zooplankton Animal” – What it is and why its essential when you set up your night fishing lights.

To make it simple, Zooplankton is the “animal form” of Plankton. The Zooplankton primarily feeds on the Phytoplankton and wherever there is Phytoplankton present you will find Zooplankton. These two microorganisms start the whole food chain process rolling. Both are present in all freshwater and saltwater bodies of water at many different depths. The key point to remember here is all types of bait fish need Zooplankton as a food source to survive. And of course all game fish such as large mouth bass need bait fish to survive. So you can see by attracting phytoplankton with your underwater fishing light you can significantly up your chances for a bass fishing at night trip.
