768 - What is the best time of day to go fishing, and why?

The best time to go fishing depends on the fish, but usually, it's early in the morning (around sunrise) or late in the evening (before sunset).

Fish tend to be most active during these times because:

  1. Water is cooler: Fish like cooler water, and it's usually cooler in the morning and evening.
  2. Less light: Fish feel safer in dim light, so they come out to hunt during these times.
  3. Food is more available: Insects and tiny animals, which fish like to eat, are often more active during these times.

So, if you want to catch some fish, try going early in the morning or late in the evening.
