Effects of the "Supermoon" on fishing?

[quijibo]

Anyone know what effect the Supermoon will have on fishing? The Lakers weren't in the deep waters that they usually haunt this time of year and I was wondering if this could have something to do with it.

Yes I can imagine it does have an effect. I don't know what the lakers do in MN this time of year, but in Ontario I always start to fish shallower on underwater points this time of year, 25-40 ft. It seems they move shallower to follow their prey.

I'm guessing that they must be doing the same here. I'll start with my favorite 35' point that I usually fish early in the season.

Thanks,

My fishing last night on the Red River went ok, not great, now shabby either. Conditions are current and flow is way up, lots of stirred up clutter and debris...Vex locked in LP Zoom 6' Mode all night and debris clutter was a factor.

Salmo Zipper scores 6 walleye 1.5 lbs to 3.5 lbs, and 3 sauger in the 1.5 lb range. In 5' to 7'.

Frabill Thermal Tip-up rigged with a Frabill Essentials Tip-up glow walleye bead leader scores 3 walleye but the larger eyes of the evening, ranging from 4.5 to 6 lbs. Tip up was set in 3' of water under 3' of ice. Bigger fish are cuddling up tight to the shore it would appear.

A Funny evening bite in very shallow. Only 2 Goldeye...that was a welcome change from 30 - 50 Goldeye an evening.

No werewolves, but the rain and ice pellets falling had me jumpy for a while thinking there may be one lurking around.

I fished Saturday and Sunday and all I caught was a 14" Mack and a wicked sunburn. The fish actually got caught in my line. I was able to draw them in and hold their interest for up to 20 minutes, I just couldn't close the deal.
