we shoot them at night by a bridge that has big flood lights on it and we can see them real good, we had lights on our boat and it did spook them, then we put the lights on 6' poles and it didnt spook them as bad, seems if the lights are above the water a good ways it is OK..

Heck, your ugly bow weighed 35 pounds without having to draw it.
