    Default Crappie fishing at night


    Do most guys use the green lights or regular white lights? Also I have seen boats with just one or two lights and others with generators and very bright lights. Do the bright lights work better ?

    Most of the boats generators and bright lights may be people bowfishing. I use green lights in the water and white lights to see my rods.

    I use green underwater lights .....suspended 4-5 ft. deep the lights attract bait fish and the baitfish attract the crappie.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    We use two green lights in the water. Bright lights just draw in more BUGS !!

    what' happened to the more simple times and going back to the basics? all you really need to draw all the minnows to your boat is a simple coleman lantern with a shield behind it hung over the side of your boat. and a lot cheaper too.

    A lot of the trees i use to hang my lantern on are gone know,so anchoring or tying up to a stump and dropping a 12 volt light is getting more and more a have to kind of thing.
