Pond Boss Forums FISH & FISHING Fly Fishing & Other Fish Species NEWBIE

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to say hello and I look forward to learning a bit more on the subject of fishing. I've fished most all my life and nightfishing for catfish would be my sport of choice. Im also an inventor and may from time to time ask you your opinions on some ideas of mine. I would really appreciate any thoughts you have good or bad. I really am looking to learn and get some straight shooter type answers from real fishermen. I Look forward to talking with you.

Welcome to the forum..

Innovator,
There is a forum named "new member introduction" near the top of the forum list. You should put an introduction in there with your pond stats, what fish you have in it, and your goals, etc in there.

If it's anything in good supply around here it's opinions.

I dont have a pond as of yet. My main thoughts were someone who owns a pond would more than likely fish frequently at night. I'd like to get some of your ideas on night fishing if any. What are some of the products and techniques you use to make sure you dont let them get away when the sun sets?

I use a black light in my boat with fluorescent line so I can see without attracting bucks.

Fishing for deer at night from the boat?

Hmmm... Can you tell hunting season is fast approaching and I have bucks on the brain!

Yeah pheasant season comming soon.... Bird on the brain. My reason for asking about night fishing is I am working on a new technology that could possibly help when trolling, bank fishing or fishing at night. I will be able to tell you more about it in around 4 to 6 weeks from now. Again I just figured those that own ponds more than likely fish plenty at night.

Thanks again for the ideas, I look forward to showing you my new technology. On another note my buddy caught a 12 pound monster catfish and all I caught was some ZZZZ's Im gonna try again tonight.
