Post My new bowfishing lights
Going to try them out tonight on the river. 4x150 watt HPS from GVlighting running off a champion 1200 watt generator. His lights are pretty nice and a good price. Stout housings on them.

cool, i run the hps light and metal halide. the hps seems to penetrate better when the water is cloudy. i learned a lesson though. keep a halogen ready to cut on if your lights go out. they take a few minutes to heat back up. i was bowfishing in a duck impoundment on santee and a damn gator thought he would come up and check out the boat. i bout sh!t a brick when the lights camee on and old boy was lookin over the transom! :lol:

you will like those lights. I know on other forums they rave about them and the price is not bad either. When I get a new hull I am going to use the short 400w HPS from them. I know a guy with 150's on his boat and it does a good job lighting up the water. HPS is the way to go in murky water for sure.

Everything is in the housing......Many are multitap lights so just wire them up to what voltage you running and your set...no outside caps or ballast required

Tried them out last friday. River was very murky. Couldn't see bottom with a 3 million CP spotlight in 2 feet of water. Fired up the big boys and we were seeing bottom and shooting fish in 4-5 feet. Very happy with these lights!
