In the winter month I do a considerable amount of night fishing with lures for Zander in rivers. With the early dusk of november to february there are two possibilites stay at home or go fishing in darkness.
I only take one rod, a net, a reliable head torch and one box of 4 to 5 inch long shallow running lures (e.g. Bomber, Salmo minnow, illex arnaud), pliers and snaps. All in a very small and light bag.
I use a spinning reel with low gear ratio 1:4,7 which I found is for success.
The lure must be cranked vvvvvery slow, just barley moving. I do one crank per second or less, depending of the flow of the river.
I would wonder if It shouldn t work in the river Servern or elsewhere.
I once saw a video, Matt Hayes fishing the severn for Zeds during daylight.
Have somebody made some experience with night lure fishing for zander?
regards
CHRIS
