I've had my best hunts in the early morning hours. From 1:00 am on was pretty good for me. Full moon, incoming tide.

Re: Poll-What's the best time to Bug Hunt?

Anytime you can get out. From what I have found there is no perfect scenario. Some days they crawl. Other days with the exact same conditions they won't crawl.

Word that. I have sat for hours for nada. And then I get like 3 in about 15 minutes. BTW I have a camera on my net so I know when they are crawling. There is no better time then dark... I have found.

Dive shallow during the day and pull them out of their holes. Or hoopnet early evening, stay warm, drink beer and thank DFG for limiting the divers to 7 bugs because its just too easy when you can see the bug just sitting in the sand in front of you.

Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.
