Thread: Any Success @ Night Yet?

Wow.... way to go. Are there any of those grren lights that don't cost a lot of money? I have seen some of them way up to $100 or so. I love to fish, but I am not spending $100 for a light. If there are in cheaper ones out there, are they any good?

yes you can get them at bass pro for 29 to 30 dollars get the 21 inch ones i use to of them

they are good lights low amp draw i catch fish all the time on them i tryed the white lights for years no luck it all changed when i went to green lights

I think you can even get an affordable green light at Wal-mart. I've got one of the bigger 4ft green lights, but unsure exactly how deep I need to set it. After this weekend, I'm going to become nocturnal.

bass pro has the green fishing lights on sale now 9in 11.88 21in 17.88 hard to beat that price I just ordered a couple extras

just under the surface about 6inchs

Hybrids are fun and I am sure I could catch some, but I want the fillets and I would rather eat driftwood then to eat a hybrid.

Hey guys, the hybrids are good to eat if you cut all of the red stripe out. I think some people call it a mud streak. Anyway, if you remove all of the red/brown meat from the fillet, they are "almost" as good as crappie and bluegil IMHO. Try it, I think you may change your mind.

I have tried cutting all the red meat out and I still hate it. I think it is a mental deal. I tried it with the read meat and now I can't get that taste out of my head. As for the green lights, hang them at 6 inches below the water line? What kind of cord length do they have? I got two deep cycle batteries up front for the trolling motor but like I said, they are up front and it would be easier to not remove them if I don't have to. I was born this lazy I guess. Another dumb question? What kind of light are you guys using to see? With lanterns like I used to use, it was never a problem. You had enough light from them even thought they were directed toward the water. With the green lights that isn't going to happen. The anchor light would attract way to many bugs and you would get eatten alive.
