Depends what species you are after

Eels & Catfish tend to come on to feed as it gets dark and using a feeder and accurate casting will allow you to build up a carpet of attractants to get the fish feeding

The only time I have personally fished this way is on the Norfolk Broads once the boats had stopped there are obviously other areas that can be fished this way but I have not fishedthem

I use swimfeeder when i night fish, catch a fair few aswell

if you float fish, use a boilie

James you said y fish the pig at night but you didn't say what you catch i'm v intrested never trying the feeder at night,unless it's the method.

ermm ive got bream, tench, roach, eels, and i think mayeb a few more but i cant think

i used double red and i kept getting them :-)

i think im right in thinking its a good method at night ......i would stick a cliplight on the rod tip.give the midges something to look at
instead of the float as usual


you will have to tell me how you got on i would be interested

The only problem with night fishing is I have trouble seeing in low light
so have to use a high power LED headlight
so that kills my night vision as well

bad burnt as scalded eH!
