Tillery at night

Have been hearing good reports from Lake Tillery so I made the trip on Sunday. Hit the lake at 6:30pm because all the reports said that was when they start biting and I like night fishing. First place I tried was the shore line (trees, docks, rocks the Christmas tree farm) and did not have much luck. By then it was getting dark so set up the lights on a point in 30’ of water. Never got anything around the lights but still caught nice fish but not any numbers. Moved around and same thing two or three then nothing. Started working close to the docks again and bang it was on. Just started slow trolling minnows about 10 / 20 feet off the docks and hit my limit in no time. Nice fish 10’’, 14’’ and 16’’ and one 18’’. Started putting the small 10’’ and 12’’ fish back. WT 64 they stopped biting around 2am so loaded up the boat.

Sounds like my next trip needs to be at night. I need to get set up to fish at Night. What type of light do you use? Thanks for the report.

This is the lights we use. We make our own they are better than any you will buy.

Made them myself using LED's. Inside a clear tube. All material can be gotten at Lowes and Wal-Mart.

Nice looking lights. How much?

Thanks here's one that has UV lights on top for using florescent line.

I would be interested in some directions on how to do those! look great

Do you get the LEDs at walmart/lowes too?

neather get from china mostly

What are the lights wrapped around?

matt, after getting interested in these lights as well, I saw a video on you tube how to make them. The lights are wrapped around a smaller piece of pvc pipe inside the clear pvc tube.

That was my next mode of action, and I watched it also you can learn anything on youtube these days.

Good luck on your lights guys they not that hard to make :ThumbsUp The inside pipe on mine is 1" I don't use clear PVC on mine I've never even seen any but good idea if you can find some.:HandsClapping

Fishing Brother, are you saying that your lights don't have the clear tubing outside of the them? I looked back at your photo and don't see one. That means your led strip wrapped around the 1" pvc goes directly in the water? I know they advertise that they are waterproof, but your putting them to the test.

No they are sealed but its not pvc. Its the clear tubes that go over the lights in paint shops its paper thin but tough but not pvc. Guess I need to have a class on how I make them.http://www.crappie.com/crappie/image...s/thumbsup.gif

yea, I didn't think it was clear PVC. I figured it was some type of tubing. I did see one guy that had some that were fairly thick. Thanks!

You can buy thicker clear pipe. But it is costly. The one's they are using are cheap and work as good.
