Lights are cool to look at and when in the canyons on the chunk at night draw alot of squid and small baitfish to the boat. They definitely help in that aspect. They proobably would do the same around here i.e. attract bait. Those coastal lights are very good and I know a few who have them and they have been flawless. I am just leery of having "extra" holes in the hull of my boat. Make sure you epoxy and glass them in and have wooden dowels that can be jammed into hull if it ever ruptures. Also make sure the bilge is capable of pumping out the amount of water that enter from those holes. I personally never have heard of any lights letting go but.......

don't forget the Plankton

it's the attracted Plankton that attracts the smallest baitfish
which attract the next size up.... and on up the food chain it goes

plankton need brighter light than just the red spectrum...

watched a short you tube video on a guy with
a mounted on the railing light (for lake stripers)
that was powered by a mini gas generator...

ran for like 3.5 hours

but this one is cool lookin
