Glad I'm not the only one who catches trans-bass during tournaments! Had some channel cats (identifying as bass) wreck havoc in the Mid Spring & Summer Classics. Most memorable was a 4lb channel smoked a 10" worm I was flipping into some weeds. I seriously thought about logging it onto the board for grins (not sure if BLat would have found it funny).

🤣😂🤣

Especially so if it's discontinued!

Central Texas (Temple) it's cloudy and 55° (water temp is 45°). By Sunday our forecast is to be sunny and 77°.

Central Texas. Air temp is 49° and warming. Water temp was 45° this morning. Forecast is 70° temps this weekend! Thank you Jesus!

Mack Toon , I probably went a little overboard on mine. If I was strictly fishing for bass after dark I would have taken your approach on the lights. I've always heard bass don't care for the lights...and they don't hang out in view when they are on. But they do come in like torpedos and pick off the bluegill and other baitfish. 

It's not too hard or complicated. Plan everything out before you start drilling any holes in your Kayak. Know where you're going to keep your batteries (and how many). I run the green and blue lights on one battery, and navigation lights on another. Below is  a list of stuff needed.

Light strips that are rated for water. I picked mine up at Academy Sports and Outdoors in the kayak section. https://www.academy.com/search?searchTerm=led%20light%20strips

Deer feeder batteries (12v) they run about $20 a piece

wiring and switches (usually can get at Walmart and or autopart stores

electrical connectors. You'll need a variety for splicing and connecting to your battery and switches.

Drill and a set of small drill bits. (You'll want to use the smallest you can get away with and wire still go through).

Silicone to cover any holes you have to drill that are subject to water. Kinda optional

Time. I can't emphasize that you plan before you start. Build time is going to depend on it. 

Also reduces my chances of getting run over after dark.

I am so looking forward to fishing against you. You were the guy to keep up with last year. I'm going to do from the bank on the first one(during spawn) and then maybe I'll put the boat in the water.

Are you sure that wasn't a game warden? They're pretty sneaky down in Texas
