Robhuntandfish Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Might be a chance to see them tonite. I've caught them a couple times. One Oct night while walleye fishing was the best. https://www.localsyr.com/news/local-news/another-chance-to-view-of-northern-lights-in-cny-soon/amp/ mowin, Bionic, phade and 3 others 6 "it's pointless for humans to paint scenes of nature when they can go outside and stand in it"- Ron Swanson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucksnbows Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 I lived at 7,200’ in Colorado and got to see them there and in places like Montana over the years. I have a cousin in Fairbanks, Alaska that is a photographer and he gets some amazing photos of the northern lights.

Robhuntandfish Posted April 23, 2023 Author Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) The night I saw them the best I was fishing for walleye off an old pier and was the only one there. My buddy showed up at like 11:00 with short bud bottles and a tray of fried walleye. We stayed out til like 2 am and caught our limits. Awesome night. Waves of green across the sky. It took me a couple minutes to figure out what it was. Can't imagine what it's like in Alaska. I would be out there all night.

left field Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Some of my most amazing nights have been sitting a dock at night in the far north in Canada watching the Aurora. Anyone who has the opportunity to travel and see them should. Ogee, Bionic and Bucksnbows 2 1 My Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 The best I ever saw them was on a caribou hunt at Little Marten Lake in NWT, Canada about 50 miles south of the Arctic Circle in 1994.....They were absolutely breathtaking...
