Thread: Norman Nightstalk 1-23-21, sorta

My Get you a painters light. The one with the aluminum shaped cone and cut the plug off and put some alligator clips on to connect to the battery. Use a 12 volt light bulb in the light. Clamp it on the side of your boat and adjust to where you can see rod tips plus give you light to see in the boat a little. Or get the same light fixture and run a 110 curly bulb @ 26watt and use a small inverter to run your light. Don't cut the plug off! I use this most all the time and it works great. I run three on the side for best lighting. Only times it is a pain is late summer when bugs get bad. But keep it out over the side of the boat and you can feed the fish bugs. LOL I some times drop my four foot hydro glow in at the back of the boat but I can't tell much difference on which is the best. We catch fish on both. Sometimes more on one or the other. Depends on who's near it. Like Mac said come on out with us and get back in the grove of fishing at night. You might learn a new trick from an old Big Dawgg!!!

These are the lights I use.
I fish slot at night on Wylie and these last me 2 or 3 4 to 5 hour trips between battery charges.
I love my lights.
I have 2 on the front sides and 2 on the back sides. I fish 3 rods per side. Mainly in the back of the boat for now. I need more rod holders to fish up front of my Trihull.
Thought I'd share these with you.

I used to wish Wylie at night a bunch. Need to start back. I live 50yds from Norman, and 4-5min from the ramp, with a neighbor offering to let me use her dock, but Wylie is my night stalk lake.
Before I'd just throw 2-3 batteries in the boat and use the Q Beams, but I'm trying not to have to ad a battery to the boat. I'm hoping these LEDs are as good as yall claim lol

Here's what I use, I got my lights from Northern tool, I use a 6 ft piece of aluminum pipe to keep the bugs away. My last boat had rails to place clamps but this boat doesn't have rails so I made this and it's removable. LEDs are easy on batteries so unless you have a weak battery you can go a couple trips until you have to charge them.

Got some LEDs over the weekend. Just havent had a chance to fab them onto bars yet.

As the old saying progress is the new old. I used Q Beams for years. But these new LED lights are the way to go. I got both white and green drop lights. Start with white on one end of boat and green on other. If one gets more bites I switch to that color on both ends. Got some Led mounted to my rod holders to light up the rod tips. Use small lawnmower battery on each end. Have never ran out of battery for our Nitestalk. Short notice but a couple guys going to Wylie Saturday night for a bit of cold water fishing. Welcome to join us. Puttin in Ebenezer Ramp bout 5:30. Fish till rain comes in. Maybe midnight.
