Default New Moon

FWIW-
I have caught or been in the boat when 3 walleyes over 10# were caught. All were caught within + or - 3 days of the new moon.

Some of the research that I have read related to moon phase states that certain moon phases effect certain species differently. The dominate species are more likely to feed during the full moon, I have seen this in reguards to salmon, tarpon, and muskies. As I said earlier I usually schedule my Lake of the Woods vacation during the full moon. I have had some pretty exciting nights during the full moon, clear nights, and calm water. During these conditions I have raised and caught a lot of nice muskies, on top water lures.
