I pretty much agree. If the lights ruin the fishing, its only temporary at worst and the fish usually return shortly.
I agree with the hound to the point that its a distraction/pain in the butt. You feel exposed more than anything else.On the beach it used to piss me off because a lot of guys would light you up with their headlights just to see what was going on.I've caught plenty of large fish in the canal standing right under the lights though.
Which lights exactly I can't rememeber.

An enlightening topic nonetheless.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
