The Red's dead at night. Have never in fact had any luck ice fishing walleye after dark anywhere.

              in the past years I have done real well fishing at lockport at night. the fish dont start to bite till about 3-4 am. this lasts till about 7am then slows down a bit till 9 or 10. i think the lights at the locks have something to do with it cause i havent caught as many anywhere else along the red at night. lockport is not ready to be fished this year so stay away from the lock area.

I spent one lonely night out there myself a few years ago......BIG WASTE of TIME ::)
Did not mark a single fish once it got dark!
Even tried the old lantern above the hole trick  :D

Have ice fished lockport for about 17 years and have found nothing at night but summer fishing at night for cats is another story - good times to be had

I have fished the Red By Cat's on the Red and have only had Maria time and time again. No Sauger no Walleye.

from my experience night time fishing... you have to KNOW a night fishing spot...or else your just gonna get stuck with nothing or a mariyah.. i heard people were catching on the lake night fishing but.. its not something id suggest doing unless you know the area very well or own a snowmobile... this year i was near the steam plant...about 1am and i had this NICE BITE so i hooked him with a nice set and it was tuggin pretty good i was all excited to see this big fat wally...and here comes this 8-10 pound mariyah...i think after that day it killed night fishing for me
