Did anyone fish during the eclipse?

Was it anything special? Or is it supposed to be good for fishing?

    Waiting for an answer. If it was good, I'll mark my calendar for the next one.

    I did just after. Around 5. Fished a pass with outgoing. 1 pompano and 1 snook. Dont think the eclipse did anything, just been a crappy year in general.

    I fished an hour before it and 2 hours after it.
    it was totally dead before and during the eclipse.
    Then for 90 minutes after the eclipse it was a wide open redfish bite in Buzzard Bay.
    Didn't matter where I cast a shrimp in a few minutes it was a keeper red.
    Most reds I've ever caught in Florida.
