lighted pier fishing at night

[alcom]

Small fish are drawn to light, and walleye (especially) cruise the shallows to feed at night. This would suggest that a lighted pier that's dead during the day could be a hotspot at night.

Testing this would involve a lot of lost sleep, and the visual experience would be pretty limited. But it could be productive. It would be a case of the fish coming to you (or to feed on small fry attracted to the light).

Has anyone tried dead-of-night fishing from a lighted pier? Are there any especially productive times, other than settling in for the night?
