Fat Dad Fishing ShowAuthor: Fat Dad Fishing Show
Join the Fat Dad Fishing Show on our quest to help the average saltwater angler to catch more fish and have a better on-the-water experience. Each week we will be covering topics to help anglers get the most out of their time targeting multiple species spanning the entire east coast of the USA. We will cover fishing for flounder ( fluke ), striped bass, weakfish, sheepshead, bluefish, tuna, and many more. On some episodes we talk in detail about how to catch flounder, while on others we will take a deep dive into saltwater fishing gear. While our home area ranges from DE to NY, we will speak with guests throughout the east coast. If you find value in the podcast, or are entertained please consider following the podcast, sharing with friends, and leaving a great review. All of these help us to reach more anglers and draw more guests! Tight lines! Language: en-us Genres: Education, How To, Sports, Wilderness Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

EP 81: 9 Tips for Successfully Fishing at Night
Episode 81
Wednesday, 12 August, 2026
Send us Fan MailThe fastest way to waste a night bite is to treat it like daytime fishing with a headlamp. After dark, the rules change and that’s exactly why it can be the most productive window for striped bass, summer flounder, weakfish, bluefish, drum, and even inshore sharks across the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast.We walk through nine practical night fishing tips you can apply immediately: how darkness funnels fish toward structure, why ambush points near bridge pilings and channel edges get even better at night, and why “slow down more than you think” is the advice that pays off when predators rely on vibration instead of pure sight. We also talk tide timing, because full dark only becomes magic when you pair it with moving water, especially around tide shifts that push bait through predictable lanes.Then we get tactical with the details most anglers skip: using your ears to locate feeding fish, choosing nights based on moon phase and cloud cover, and dialing in lure profile and color for a strong silhouette (black, purple, dark blue, blurple). We close with real-world safety and planning, from scouting spots in daylight to fishing shadow lines instead of standing in the brightest light.If you fish from shore, kayak, or boat and want more consistent night bites, this one is for you.
