Default Night time wading

There used to be a fellow that had a blue bus that he made into a camper that was allways at the fourchon beach. Had a very large generator on the back and he wouyld string q/h lights on pvc poles out into the surf out to the second sand bar.
He'd fire up the generator just b4 dark and we'd sit around eat a lil supper and drink a few beers and wait for the fish to show up.
Allways caught all the trout we wanted under the lights .
It's very scarey what you will see in 3 foot a wadda at night.
Not only the sand sharks and black tips that are allways there but we have seen a few BIG Bull sharks lurking around the edges of the light.
Jacks and bull reds , small cobia and lots of spanish macs all were caught under these lights.
Night time is the one time that each fish i caught was brought back to shore. No stringers or dough nets for the sharks to get interested in.
