Haven't been there in years but used to fish Little Frank's tract at night and did great on LMB and Cats.
Group IQ is inversely proportional to the size of the group.

A Steelhead always knows where he is going, but a Man seldom does.

I have fished Big Break at night. The Big Break marina does close but once in you can leave anytime. Not a lot of PB's run through Big Break in general but even less at night. There are a lot of places you can fish in there in a yak that the pb's only go at high tide on a good day. A 360 degree whitelight is required (keep in mind it is supposed to be seen from 360) when I first mounted mine it did not sit higher than my head which is technically illegal. It is a good idea to also have a bright light for signalling/seeing. A GPS is handy too, I know some of Big Break pretty good now but at night everything looks different.

Originally I got into fishing to fish.

If you get in to trouble give me a call on my cell. Be careful, there might be stupid kids out with left over fireworks.
