Looks good to me. How much $ you have in lights? |

U did good by mounting most of them up high. 24 v is the way to go imo also. |

Lights were abt 260 for 20 on Amazon. (I sell LEDs out of my store and I can't even get em that cheap from suppliers) they are cheap and I expect trouble eventually with em but for now they'll do. Cajun that's the one thing I'm missing in this boat. It needs cup holders. Like it (1754cc GTB) but no damn cup holders. Next ones gonna be custom built. Sent from my bag phone. |

is it easy to deploy and recover your trolling motor with those lights? |

I have the same lights but I've always hooked them up 12v. Would they be brighter if I hook them up on 24v? |

Just planing on using GT for the propulsion. No troll motor. And yep on the 24v answer. Sent from my bag phone. |

Couldn't really find clean water but it worked out well. I need more lights though. I think it's wise to use the 48w if you use the cheap stuff. Optics are kinda crappy on the Cheepos Sent from my bag phone. |

added a little bit more light. 2-30 bars and 1-20. Batteries feel it quicker with them on it but the light output is better. Lamin-x yellow filters. Hadn't been able to get many shots on reds but taking out what we can if gars. Sent from my bag phone. |

Nice set up. Great pics also. Might use your idea if that's ok |

Absolutely. It works for me. I know 150watt warm whites work better, but I'm all in on these lights for 400 total and a favor for the brackets. So I'm in this for around 800 including the bow and wiring. Not too shabby for this set up I think. Sent from my bag phone. |

Yes, the 48 watt, SPOT are much better then 27s, But still not as good as 150 HPS. I run all 3 of them. |
