Take a look at the lights by "Nucli-eye". Small outfits that put out pretty good light. Supposedly they also have less draw on your battery.

I bought mine at, { superbright.com } and i'm well pleased with them. I installed them in the bumprail on my boat. a 36" strip of lights are 27.00 each. I installed 3 on each side. and in works great for fishing at night.

I did the same as waterdog, affordable and work great. I even put mine on a remote control. www.superbrightled.com

I don't remember the model number, but go to { superbrightleds.com } and look for the......waterproof strips and bars, then scroll down and find the flexible waterproof bars. and the flexible waterproof bars are what you want, don't get the strips they are flat. ps. when I did mine, I made a video of the installation, and put it on youtube. it may help with the installation, if you watch it. go to youtube and type in { how to install blacklights in rub rail } it's very easy to do, and you can do it yourself for about 1/3 the cost of a dealer doing it for you. hope this helps.

Waterdog, thanks for the help. Looked up your video and seems like something even I could do (now that you have shown me how). Thanks again.

Question: If I were to put lights on the bumb rail, how far out could I expect them to shine/show shore line or fishing line?

I use fluorescent fishing line, the lights that I put on my boat, will light my fishing line up about 50 ft. and the darker the night the better they work.

Thats a great video!! In the past I haven't used blacklights much because of the hassle of getting them out, sticking them on the wires lying all over the boat. Think I will try this.

Iif you need any help with this give me a hollar, this will give me one more reason to come down that way.

Note the type of rub rail insert you have before ordering, mine was 1/2" OD round type which wouldnt allow me to do mine exactly like Waterdogs. The was a little more work involved with mine, but still turned out great.

I ordered the waterproof strips that are 19" long and have 30 led's per strip. I have 4 strips 2 on each side and they allow me to see the line well beyond what is nessasary.
I can email you some pics and more detail if you need it. Shoot me a PM.
