Guys I like to fish at night as much of any of you....but, when you do you run the risk of hitting floaters or whatever...thats just part of it. You say Herrington has a lot of floaters....uhhh go somewhere else. Even if you do use headlights you won't see everything anyway. At my home lake in Indiana when you have your red/gree/white lights on the speed limit is 10 mph...is that the same on your lakes??? If so, you would have plenty of time to avoid other boats (if your eyes are used to the dark and can see well) and if you hit a floater it won't do much if any damage. I know most of you will keep using your headlights, but however you feel, the law is the law for a good reason. And comparing fishing boats (recreational) to tug boats/barges is just silly!!!!!!
