Striped bass are semi-nocturnal and feed with particular enthusiasm at night – especially the big ones.  So when daytime beaches are crowded and boats are busy in the inshore waters, it's a perfect moment to focus on fishing at night. 

Kevin Blinkoff, of On The Water magazine, gives us tips for fishing at night safely and successfully. And we round up the local fishing action, including strong reports of bluefin tuna. It's all in four minutes. Give it a listen.
