Looks like i'm going to be driving straight to the shore after work some nights to do some night fishing. Do the blues bite at night too? or just the bass?

Blues bite at night but are sight feeders and not primarily night feeders...
At night in the surf, its typically a bait situation for blues. they do hit lures, but at night bait is better. You don't typically see an all out blitz when they strike anything you throw the way they do during daylight.. For blues alone, without considering stripers, I prefer mornings from sunrise to around 11 am or so , and then late afternoon/early evening from maybe 5PM to dusk.. they will hit anytime they are hungry, but for just blues, I have always done a LOT better during morning tides, shortly after sun up, till mid morning... bob
