Welcome to LOU Martie!  Glad to have ya aboard

 

Haven't night fished the upper in a couple years now but if that's the plan, then id consider joining Niagara Musky Association (NMA).  There are many die hard awesome anglers in that club to say the least, and plenty that love night fishing.   .http://niagaramuskyassociation.ning.com/

I'll second that. Great group of dedicated musky anglers. The preferred areas to troll at night are in Canadian waters. The floating moss and weeds usually aren't as bad on the Canadian side. Also, another great organization, and friends of the NMA is Muskies Canada. In the summer, night fishing the river has a lot of pluses. More comfortable, avoids pleasure boaters and can be more productive than daytime. Also less stressful on the fish but still have to be conscious of over stressing the fish when temps go into the upper 70s and higher.
