I’m a teacher, so I understand where you are coming from when it comes to fishing during the week. I mostly get out on the weekends, but usually have other obligations too. I try and sneak out after school most nights. I fish local lakes by the school. I’m pretty limited with species to chase with not a lot of daylight, so I target lakes with reputation for night bite crappies and or walleye. I target other species on the weekends. Long story short, fish close to work and find night bite crappies and or walleye (easier said than done). Good luck!
