The practice involves targeting a specific species of freshwater fish during the hours of darkness. This angling technique necessitates specialized equipment, knowledge of nocturnal carp behavior, and adaptation to lower light conditions.
Undertaking this activity presents unique advantages to anglers. The relative quiet and decreased angling pressure compared to daytime hours can lead to increased success. Historically, this method was adopted by anglers seeking to exploit the carp’s feeding patterns, which often shift towards increased activity during the night.
