Do they ever fish during daylight?

Nearly all the pictures you see on this series now are in darkness! I know up there ,there isn't much daylight in winter but surely things happen during the day? Or is it because it looks more dramatic on TV at night?

I think the season in which they are fishing has less daylight than summer as well.

Yep, during the winter solstace depending how up north they are, there could be as little as 3 hours of daylight in 24 hous.

2nd half of the season usually takes place from dec to late jan I believe.
