Night Time Bass Feeding = Slower Morning?

If the fishing is good during the night do you guys think the fishing will be slower come morning on average?

Like it seems like the days I hear of people doing really good at night, I won't do as great that morning....

What's your opinion?

Yes. I've had some great nights of fishing when it got really tough after the sun had been up for a couple hours, usually during the really hot summer months it seems.

In the hot summer months I have read that nights around the full moon can be excellent for night fishing, though I have done very little night fishing to verify this for myself.  I believe the idea is that bass have the advantage in the low light of a bright moon and they really put on the feed bag.  I have heard it said that fishing the next day can be rather slow though I know someone is going to post that bass don't just bite when hungry.  It seems there could be some logic to this idea though.  I like this excuse and use it often.  :smiley:  

Full moon make for long days on the water.  The fish seem to have longer "shut down" periods during the daylight hours.

When talking about a "morning" bite, a "mid-day", an "evening" bite, or "night" bite. We try timing the "bite" by looking at the proverbial click on the wall,a " morning" bite maybe 8-10 am on the bass's clock.

On any given body of water one might find a "morning" bite no " mid-day" bite or "evening" bite but a " night" bite. Or any combination!
