I think there is a lot of truth to fish feeding at night instead of day during a full moon in some cases.  An example of such a case would be summer, clear night skies when trout are feeding on larger food items such as during a June/July sedge hatch.

In rivers, I think anadromous fish move during a full moon.

Thanks for the info guys!!! From what I can deduce  from the posts, it seems that perhaps the moon affects fish in different locales in different ways, seems as though it puts off fish on the feed, but may spur anadromous/migratory fish to move with the big tides associated with the full moon.
