No personal experience but saw some guys at Hoover operating under such a setup. They appeared to be having a good time.

Under the bridge? Green light? That was probably us lol.

That said, not all lights are created equal. Some of the cheap ones don't work worth a darn.

My idea on depth is you need the light penetrating the water column not polluting your view above water. Mine is pretty bright as well so if it's not deep enough, it hurts your eyes.

 

We use one regularly in the summertime. It will bring them up from 40 fow to the top 3 or 4 feet of water... turn on some music and have a good time

 

How long do you let the light sit before they move up shallow

 

It can take some time.. youll get a big minnow swirly after 45 mins or so. You can pick off random fish though inbetween

 

I have experienced the same typically...

 

Hands down, best setup for summer time crappie at night. I've been using them for a while and have had lots of luck with them. I have a smaller white led light (8inches) and a larger green led light (18inches). Both attract a lot of minnows, some people like the green better, some people like the white better. I personally like the white, but green works just as well. Only reason why I like the white better is because you don't have to bring a marine battery if your fishing from shore, you can use a vexilar battery, much easier to carry. If your fishing from a boat, then it really doesn't matter. Good luck!

 

How far down should I suspend the light underwater?

 

I generally run two lights. A deep green one at 10 feet and another floating white light. The combination of the two seems to work well. Clear water is a plus for drawing in bait and gamefish. I try to setup on or close to a deepwater break

I have a submerged light and have only had a chance to use it once at Alum - It took a little while to get the bait fish around and things were pretty slow but had a blast trying it out. I need get the time to do it again.

 

Has anyone ever tried this on Erie, or in the marinas up there fall/spring...?
