It's peaceful without all the lights on. The only time that wakeboard boat ridden lake is peaceful

Why are there so many fewer lighted boat docks on Cypress than there have been the last few years? I can't figure out if it's just coincidence or a concerted effort to discourage night fishermen. I'm not just talking about submerged lights but above water lights as well. Bugs are terrible. The spiders build a new network of webs every night. WIth the lights left on all night it is insane how many bugs are left to litter the dock. The good news is if you can find some isolated lighted docks close to deep water this time of year you can sometimes find the stacked up. Ease in quiet, start fishing out a ways first. The bass will tend to stage up just outside the glow. Then move in.

Talked to a dock owner the other night about this and his light was on but it was going to turn off at about 10. He stated that very few docks are lighted full time almost like it was discussed and decided on by the owners to not leave them on. I believe this. There's no way it is just coincidence that so many dock owners simultaneously decided to turn off their lights. I fished Hawkins at night three times in the last month and it is the darkest lake I have ever seen.

25 years ago dock owners were required to have a light and run it all night. Back then there weren't as many docks but they were all lit up. when we bought our place we were told we had to leave the light on. But we noticed several docks were dark at night. so we started turning ours off when we went to bed. The clean up the next morning wasn't as bad. Bugs are crazy in the summer around them lights.
