My new work schedule kind of has me perplexed. I work 6PM to 3AM and Im wondering how this is going to effect fishing this winter. I have always been a casual fisherman and got on the ice between 7-8am and am rarley out past sundown.

Is hitting the Ice at about 4AM too early? I figure work till 3, grab my gear and have a line wet by 4AM and fish till about 8-9AM and head home for some sleep.

It's never too early to wet a line. We all have to earn a living so we have to fish when we can.Some of my best fishing has been during the light change period AM or PM.Watching the sun come up on a frozen lake you have to yourself....thats good stuff right there.

Alot of books and magazines say the bite also last longer in the morning hours. But depending on lake type and snow cover the bite may start at 9 am. I used to stay in a sleeper house on a shallow dirty lake, people would come early and leave 30 min after sun up. But the water was still dark. Something to think about.
