    All the fish were really well conditioned and only caught 2 undersized and they were only just.

    Anyone have light bars on their boats? I'm after ideas. I mounted one on mine and get to much reflection off the front rails - to the point of not being able to see.
    Some nice pannies there.
    Where did you mount it? if you mount it on the hardtop but move it back untill the front of the hard top just shadows the bow you should be good?

    Yeah no huge fish. But all good for a feed. And was cracking action, on a day that was meant to be crap ....

    As for light, yes i need to play with the forward and back bit, however i think if i get it back far enough to miss the rails, they wont be doing f all for actually lighting the way.
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

    You dont need to see the 3 or 4 meters in front of the boat at 20knt...if you see it there you have already hit it before you can react.
    If needing that light forad for docking and trailering maby you could mount a small light under the bowsprit ankor thing or one each side just under the rub rail at the bow facing down?
