Guys, I built a 10 foot wide by 12 foot long stationary dock on my 8 acre pond. Now I’m wanting to put some lights around it to attract fish. My plan is to attract them in two ways. First, I would like enough light to penetrate the water and attract them that way since fish like light (as far as I know anyways). Second, I would like the light to attract bugs. As the bugs fall to the water that should also attract fish.

With this in mind, what lights do you suggest I use.

I was thinking about low voltage LED lights but I heard they don’t attract bugs. Is that true? What about something like this…
Click
those are the LED version of this…

Click 2

Do you guys have any recomendations?

Thanks!


I want to grow 10 lb'ers!!!

I've had good success fishing at docks that have a conventional halogen flood light a foot or so over the water. The green lights are pretty pricey. I wonder if they are more effective at attracting fish than a cheap flood light?
