LED Lighting And Depth Finder For My Walker Bay Boat

[@ericv4152]

THANK YOU KRIS FLORES FOR SHOWING US YOUR BOAT AND THE DETAILS OF HOW YOU LIT IT UP ..I think im gonna do that too ..looks good buddy👍🏻

[@COYOTE5053]

I have been making green led fishing lights for 2 years, we submerge them which draws in the bait fish. I also rigged a yellow led strip overhead to keep the insects away, it works. I like the idea of the smaller battery, I have a couple of them which I will be trying. Thank you Kris!!!

[@hannafutrell9782]

Power wheel battery?! GENIUS!

[@dirtangler]

Nice lighting system 👍👍👍

[@JonJon116]

Kris just wanted to say thank you for what you do here on KZbin, me and my dad would catfish when I was young I learned a lot from him but due to circumstances I haven't been able to fish with him in a number of years. A couple years back I wanted to learn again I came across your channel long story short I go every chance I get I use your rigs I use your bait, and now I'm teaching my little brother everything I know. Thank you for re kindling my love of this amazing sport. I owe you a lot my man!

[@PoleBenderFishing]

Very cool Kris!

[@justinluna7985]

[@CHUNKYCATSFISHING]

Look Awesome 👍🏼

[@hernanenriquez1804]

Very good Kris!

[@ericv4152]

Juanelo IM ALWAYS LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR Videos AS WELL ...I enjoy your recipes....GOOD TO SEE YOU ON KRIS's CHANNEL ...

[@liv2theful]

that's ingenious sir. Looks awesome.

[@brianjenkins5591]

Aloha Kris and you have some very good ideas thank you for sharing which now gives me an idea for my work shop!

[@williamc7460]

I love my battery tender. I now own three of the for all the lawn mower. big boat and snow blower . great job on the led lighting

[@Bigpopicatfish]

looks nice Kris and great job

[@albertledesma5173]

Hell yeah Kris!! You killed it!

[@larryfetters212]

Outstanding info. I love the idea of the power wheels batters. We are going to add some lights to the pontoon boat.

[@JosephRiddick83]

Kris you gave me a awesome idea thanks for your video!!!

[@TwiztedFishingTv]

That's a great set up!! If you use those at night it will attract a bunch of baitfish. I've started feeding frenzy's at night with lights. Lights, then bugs and baitfish, then the bass, crappie and cats show up!

[@rorrer66]

Awesome idea Kris!! Love it. Love your videos too. Keep up the good work.

[@mglangley56]

Very cool Chris!

[@michaeltoby8474]

That's awesome. You have given me some great ideas on how to set my boat up. I looking at a 8 ft. Creek boat

[@markduffield9872]

Nice video, great idea!

[@scottgrizzle5879]

that turned out real nice

[@FishinNStuff]

Great video Kris , thatxx as great idea I use game cam 12v batteries on my kayak never gghought of even looking at power wheels battles, , loved the fishing challenge u did againsff Luke by the way

[@FishinNStuff]

Dang u autocorrect lol I never not ghought lol

[@trazen420]

Those lights are nice

[@TNRVG]

I got a cheap Chinese Lithium Ion battery for $20 off ebay for my Fish Finder on my NuCanoe. A friend of mine said its a fire hazard but is 9 AH and it weighs a pound or less. I do have a large deep cycle battery for my trolling motor and its a pain to move around. I have been considering getting a small outboard to make life easy lol! LED is the way to go!

[@bmWeese-45]

Pretty cool. Good job!

[@coodyoutdoors8766]

Nice setup

[@jeffjackson5331]

I don't know if anyone else suggested it but I have seen kayakers using batteries for wild game feeders to run lighting, depth finders and other accessories on their kayaks. I love your set up.

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

thanks for the idea!

[@jeffjackson5331]

muddyrivercatfishing your welcome bud!

[@stillakilla7520]

i loved it nice and cheap and the outside lights perfect for landing big ole catfish

[@gonzogonzalez9990]

i can't believe there were 3 jerks who didn't like this video! SMH....Keep up the Great Videos Kris! i love 'em!

[@callastname2331]

Well done bro. keep up the good work

[@imnotimportant]

I have those same led strips in my duck blind, 4 of the 16 foot strips. I have them wired to the same type of battery that you bought, a 12V SLA but mine is only 7ah. We turn them on for probably an hour or so each morning, and hunted about 30 days last year- so they ran for roughly 30 hours in the cold (below 0 temps at the end of the season). After the season was over I pulled the battery out of a foot of snow and took it home, was still at 1/2 charge. So 30 hours and several weeks of below 0 temps and the battery was only half empty. So don't worry much about your battery draining- yours should never be below probably 80-90% after a night of fishing. Those batteries have a max draw of about 5 amps, no way you are pulling that with your humminbird and those lights... you may have a short somewhere.

[@imnotimportant]

re: battery cutting power. you may have a bad battery or a battery that is not the marked rating which is common with those toy style batteries out of china.. no telling how long it sat at the store also. I use them for various projects, and just buy them off of amazon from reputable sellers. 12V 7ah are like $15, 9ah are around $18, and 12ah are about $25.

[@SoUThCReATiOn]

Great Video Kris I'm glad you made this video you gave me an ideal for my 10 ft jon boat on that 12 volt battery

[@Buciiio]

Eres perrrrrrooo!!! Goes to show you dont need expensive and fancy. A little brain power is all thats needed

[@mikecha1957]

I've been thinking about something like this for my boat. I like that track lighting..Looking good brother..

[@ReelCanadianFishing]

great boat kris!

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

thanks Cory!

[@kyronjackson196]

nice vid

[@davidfray1948]

Ingenious!!

[@juanhigareda3810]

Cool stuff kris

[@MelSoCal2011]

excellent!

[@jerzcnate]

Genius move there Kris, one day when I get my Walker bay I know what I'm doing.

[@DESERTSTATELINEANGLERS]

that is cool nice job

[@FlowBaka]

I put leds like that under my truck for the running board lights and I used 100% silicone and its been on there for almost a year now in all conditions and they worked fine. the super glue might be too stiff and not flex, but crack and break off instead.

[@sinnsome]

that was a awesome idea kris love the lighting system you came up with very nice man great vid

[@briangiovannoni919]

You can always find some way to fix thngs. Good shows as always.

[@dirkdangler1776]

hey Kris for future reference... academy has 12v batteries that you can get either alone or in a weather tight container... look where they have the game feeders. they work really well and are very reasonably priced.

[@rgvcatfishing9568]

That's awesome

[@eddys7003]

Hey Kris, why not put some clear caulking on the led strip? The water proof one people spread in bathroom tiles should work!

[@theoutdoorswithdave2352]

that looks like a bright light.

[@flamezpark]

Hey Kris if you're looking for a fish/depth finder that you'll only use here and there you should check out the Deeper fish finder .....its basically a bobber that connects to your phone. there's separate attachments for boat use

[@FatBoyDan]

I run lawn mower derbys along with power wheel derbys, one thing i learn was about the power wheel battery and how long they would last while trying to have my kids have fun. while they work good and last some what long yet i swap out the power wheel batterys with lawn mower batters as they give more power to make them faster and last longer. they cost less then power wheel batterys and will give you a full year or fishing season for under $25 for lawn mower battery here where im at as they can be charge over and over on trickle charge to last about a year.

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

thanks for the tip Dan!

[@skippickens1843]

Great job Kris. Your going to need a heavier battery sooner or later but for now good job.

[@jameskessel1607]

nice job, i got mine on eBay I got the green because the attract bait fish

[@faronmastin8683]

A jump starter battery pack will work for your lights and fish finder and it's rechargeable also just a thought.

[@ericv4152]

As im on the hunt for a small boat ive wondered how I would outfit my future boat with lighting

[@joshalford9668]

Great stuff as always brother. Keep it up!!!

[@MrJoegus]

Awesome!! Quick thinking, getting done!👌👌

[@cesaresparza07]

nice

[@Dyermaker666]

Kris.... I use a Deer Camera battery that is even smaller than the battery You have for my lighting system.... You should check into them... Cheap as well...

[@roygilkey9246]

another great vid, keep it up !!!!

[@coreyblankenship8563]

Man great idea kris. I catfish out of a 10 foot kayak that would be great for depth finder on it i have a 350lb. weight limit

[@hillbillybackwoods]

You need a sound system BAT. Half the size of a car bat. and is deep cycle for car SUBS AND AMP.

[@nathanieljones5966]

NOW THATS WHATS UP!!!!!

[@InterviewDummies]

I love your videos man! I've recently got into catfishing and I love it! I can not stop catfishing or even thinking about it lol. You've taught me a lot! I'm from north Texas, my pb is so far is a lil 8 pounder lol but I'm proud of it! Keep up the good vibes man.

[@hectorcoria3650]

Well done there amigo, nothing like that Latino ingenuity! HAHA, no really, well done!

[@Juanelo1946]

Kris, I was blown away by how well your lightening system worked out! The little Peg battery is just about right for your needs. Do you think the catfish will be put off by the lights? I'm fascinated! Good show my friend!

[@howdoyoulikedemapples6491]

Juanelo1946 love your channel! great to see you here. how's the blue gill recipes coming along!

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Howdoyou! I'm still hookin' them and cooking' them! Thanks for saying hi, my friend! Take care!

[@bigginksu]

Juanelo you took the words right out of my mouth! Using those LED light strips for an effective lighting system that pulls a very low amperage draw is a great idea. The only concern I had was that I didn't know if those strips were waterproof or weatherproof. That along with his 12V Peg battery, it's perfect for that Walker Bay!! It's just amazing what Kris did with both of his Walker Bay boats! So Juanelo - when are you going to do this to your little boat?? My wife and I both look forward to your new videos every Sunday!

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Bigginksu! You see how handy Kris is... well, I am NOT! I would electrocute myself. I would be the only blazing light on the boat. It would look cool though to have those LEDs all aglow around the SS Ms. Lulu, wouldn't it? Thanks for tuning into my Sunday show my friend! Say hi to your wife for Lulu and me!

[@Juanelo1946]

Haha! I sure will Zone! Thanks so much! You're very kind! Have a great weekend!

[@Hunter__14]

dude bad ass once again, however how do you transport your boat, im looking for something small and not to heavy that i can haul in my truck ?

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

arrow slinger14 thanks brother! This little boat fits right in the back of my truck and it isn't too heavy at all

[@N1K5M1TH]

I've been debating on doing something like this on my Jon Boat. Manly use it for close to home/small bodies of water. My concern is that the bugs at night would be pretty rough, and be all over. Not a huge deal just curious. Looks great btw, and I got my idea after seeing this, and getting tired of lanterns and flashlights. All though the LED lantern is legit, bugs fly straight to that bad boy.

[@darrellgibson7027]

Genius!

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

thanks!

[@stevethepyro420]

nice boat mods, now you should go buy another battery for your depth finder. see how long they last with separate batteries.

[@samfisherskiller]

cool shit dude

[@sovereign7034]

any plans to come to Kansas amigo?

[@philramos1932]

what part of Kansas?

[@sovereign7034]

Kansas city Missouri or topeka

[@philramos1932]

Ok I use to live in junction city

[@lastniceguy1]

You should have gotten the LEDs that has a remote that you can change colors and blinking patterns. Then it would be a real party boat lol

[@thecatdaddyexperience1222]

Did you level your transducer?

[@davebrinkman7971]

Looks Great Kris. I got my LED lights from BluewaterLED.com so on the outside of my boat I have their black lights . I also have the red and green marker lights up front since my trolling motor blocks my my red and green light. I put a few LED small lights from Wal-Mart inside my boat that are white. They only use 3amps I believe

[@julianflores4547]

you should have put a solar panel for the lights

[@thomasrose5515]

now the bait will come to you kris

[@chrismontez8562]

Not related to the video but do you ever run into problems with private land when fishing from the bank?

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Always get permission first

[@benfrausto7699]

dope setup! been thinking of doing the same thing to my canoe. maybe a video to do as well. see you Saturday in AZ!!!

[@blakej4452]

Absolutely genius. I love it. Thank you for all the great ideas. please keep us posted how it works periodically through the summer. Thanks. BTW what do you guys do about mosquitoes and other bitting bugs. there are some areas here they're so bad I avoid them but they have good potential for fish.

[@ninjairishfishing6611]

Kris can u do a video on using Crawdads for catfish

[@cfriskme]

Kris, Great videos! Have you thought about going solar with the power. Charge during the day and use all night?

[@erikthizzin]

Lol why did you not think of a kayak battery? They're like 23 bucks at Bass Pro Shops... cmon Kris! lol

[@imnotimportant]

It's literally the same battery, just a different "name". No such thing as a "kayak battery". Its just a 12V sla (sealed lead acid) battery that they rename to sell. Game feeder, toy car, kayak, DIY, ice flasher, portable fishfinder, and literally dozens of other names to sell the same battery (sometimes at 2-3 times the retail price).

[@NeverNeverSafari]

Deer feeder battery

[@brianoldham8502]

you ready for night fishing now. yessir.

[@juliepotts479]

Try a 12 volt deer feeder battery

[@thecatdaddyexperience1222]

You should of bought the lights off of WISH its were the eBay people get there lights. Comes from China and may take 3 weeks but dude that would of cost you $4 for those lights with $2 shipping

[@nathanieljones5966]

just add 1 more next to it and wire them separate, then go to harborfreight and get a solar charger for your umbrellas and top them off in the day!!! ,

[@josephagamble8863]

I was thinking black lights

[@Hunter__14]

dude i commented on another video did u receive it

[@jamescurtis1108]

I'm building a 14 ft Jon boat.

[@alejandrodelatorre463]

I didn't win a reel !😵😩😤😔😣😭

[@kirkniles4184]

Lighting is cool.but in my nick of the wood they would attract mosquitoes and they would carry ya away

[@sovereign7034]

yesssssss first

[@rodneyjohnston6280]

you said you green or red lighting you'll find out if you don't mosquitoes and bugs are going to eat you alive

[@raulmota5503]

Looks bad as
