Went to Austin this week and got some stickers for my boat. What's so cool about these stickers, is, they attract fish when supplied with electricity. I never have to mess with the bow lights anymore. Also the interior lights are LED. Amber colored. All the bugs stay outside the boat. We were on lake Austin over the weekend and I turned them on. 100's of bugs outside the boat but not one in the boat. Everything stayed on the outside. Within three minutes there were about 50 shad at the boat swimming in the lights. 20 mins later, over 1000 shad that I could see. The down scan was awesome to watch as all the fish would swim under the boat. Saw a large mouth about 5 lbs smash a shad at the boat. You can leave them on all day and the batterie will be fine. I left them on from 8 pm till 8 am and the motor started up perfect. They barley draw two amps. Interior lights. On the water. Watched the fish hitting shad next to the boat from the campground. I had a little to many barley sodas to even think of making a cast. The first cast proved that with a birds nest from hell. So I went back to my chair and watched the fish from shore. Got these from WildcatLighting.com http://wildcatlighting.com/index.html

Yup. I got them for the guys and gals that don't like the heat of the sun. I'll start doing night trips in a week or so.

That looks great and if it really keeps the bugs outside, then it's wonderful. Plus you will look very cool running around at night.

For my set up, $1200. You can have the kit mailed to you, or drive down there and have them install it. Worked great for me cause I was going to take my boat down there for the holiday weekend anyways. Averages three to four hours for him to install it. Took him six hours due to my boat was a pain in the rear to work on. My boat was not wired for stuff like this. The cost seems a bit high, but I have more additions coming soon. He has the other lights coming within two weeks. And he is going to drive up here and install it here at the house. I don't know of any online companies that would do that.... Ask for Don. Let him know you saw my setup! There is a skeeter in the photo section that ordered the setup and installed himself.

Website notes that just the strips and the bug lights are 339 for a 10-18 ft rig. Might have to check into this...
