- Bought this beat up canoe from a friend as a project boat and attempted to document some of the process of adding the lights and other features. This boat is great for skinny water fishing and even hunting. LEDs are plenty bright, everything runs on a 12 volt system and it has two outlets for charging electronic devices. Only thing it needs now is a depthfinder...
Wow, very creative, very inspirational! Thank you for sharing 🙂
Attracts a ton of bugs depending where you live. I know what a million mosquitos look like sitting in a canoe.
At the beginning, he said he was going to put the red light on the starboard side. I’m glad he caught the error and put it on the port side where it belongs.
I was told by water patrol that the white light is supposed to be taller than me sitting down.
Wow what a great little set up you got there. And thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Very Nice Set-up!!! I'm looking forward to getting mine outfitted for the up and coming season. Thanks for taking the time to share!
Great setup, man! Those lights really look cool!
I just bought a canoe and wanted to do stuff to it but didn't know what until I saw this video.
Great set up! I recently purchased the same canoe. Looking forward to incorporating some of your ideas in mine!
looks pretty good! very nice job. looking forward to seeing some fish caught out of that thing
That’s awesome. You got my old noggin joggin. I’m gonna have to get me a rig like that.
Excellent idea, the truck bed lights. Ready for night fishing now.
I did the led strips under the outside gunnel for lantern fishing. Bout the best canoe mod and fishing investment next the rod and canoe.
Killer job,I want that myself! That's definitely the way to go.
Looks great, well done.
That looks awesome man! Great work.
Nice setup!
Very nicely done!
You really 'pimped out' that canoe!
This is great! Thanks for sharing. I am going to put one together now!!
I still would like to see someone put a custom top on it. also a custom cockpit where the operator will sit.
Dude that's cool bro I'm ready to see more videos on this
Nice mods on ur canoe. Given me some ideas for the Sundolphin ss elite I recently bought. 👍
I like the truck bed lights I may set my old town up like this also thinking a solar charger on the battery would be nice thx for a great idea.
Lookin good 👍
Great job!
Man that's nice! Good job
I plan on buying the very same canoe! I will put lights on mine similar to how you did here. Great video! Keep em comin’ skinny
Impressive, great job done! Love the
Love the internal truck bed lights! Think I'll copy that I like to night fish
Looks great.
Got one last summer I’m working on it now I love it light and spacious I put a 55 pound trolling motor Newport
That is one tricked out canoe! Like like fun. And I hope it never flips over on you
I'm building stablelizers for mine
Great Video!
Nice job,
I like it!!
Very nice.
2021, got a feeling an RGB Canoes around the corner
I found a Quater!
really cool.
just need a bug zapper and your all set lol. You are going to get mosquitos but damn that looks nice
Really coll!
Excellent! Very innovative! Country Boy can do and know how, I can totally relate. Keep up the good work
Hey man if you have chickens show us your coop setup and what you feed!
so fucking badass dude! hells yeah!
Nice mod Catman hope to see it toting some deer soon. Remember it is best to use heat shrink on the electrical connections especially near water.
Thanks, so far it has carried one deer out. czcams.com/video/mvqdfGfMQ48/video.html
Nice! I commented on that one a few days ago. Your vids are no fluff and quality content. I can't watch many hunt videos because of all the product placement and narcissism. Keep it real Catman. Wishin you quality rut hunting from NC
NICE
Im gonna build one but I'll lights on the outside too.
It always makes me wonder who the lonely,pathetic people are that watch someone's video and give it a thumbs down! Seriously was you bullied or just completely ignored in school! Losers! Don't like this type of content then flip to what you do like.No disrespect to you Catman! Awesome content as usual!
I guarantee that a set of jumper cables would be much less $ than that cable that you bought. You can always take off the clamps and just use the wire. Jjust a thought for next time.
Pretty much copying the lighting set up for my sportspal. Only difference im switching up my trolling motor for a 2.3h.p motor. Only because longer trips on the water. Thanks for the vid
Pretty sweet , how’s the stability with that ?
Where did you go to buy all that? White light especially but everything!
Nice setup, but damn, tin your soldering iron.
Kinda late but anybody who is watching you can substitute the bus bar with silicon wire nuts. Red silicon wire nut holds 7 #12 wires I believe
so cool now go night fishing
do you have a video of you making that box and installing it?
where you get the lights from?
I have watched this video several times. Wanting to do something similar. You just running a car battery? Have you had it die on you yet? I'm wondering how long the battery would last cause there are some lake grounds I want to hunt/fish this year and I may need to go an hour or 2 each way or so. Thanks.
Get a deep cycle battery. Not a starting battery. Gives you longer running times.
How long does that battery last?
fyi , before soldering the wires install a piece of heat shrink tubing or used butt crimp connectors for a cleaner job . No offense meant .
That’s a cold solder joint. No bueno.
Where at? All the connections should be at least partially hot. Haven't had any electrical issues from the canoe yet.
00:04-So, fast forward to 2020.
Bet those lights did not work out so well for night fishing...........
why..........
Bugs.!
Get a telescopic extendable cheap fishing pole, mount a LED down shining light on the end
of the pole.
Mount perpendicular to the canoe via a pole holder
and say good bye to 'light happy' bugs and hell-o to lighted, bug free
personal space in the canoe.
Works for me.
revolutionpm the lights really come in handy when I’m hauling deer out or tying on a bait. But yes, if the bugs are bad, the lights are off unless I need them. I can turn them on whenever I need to see what I’m doing. It’s served me very well
I'm in the process of throwing around led lighting ideas from my canoe. I want to use it for squid fishing and floundering at night. Never thought of the bugs the lights would attract!!
Ok I didnt even think that I'd have to register the canoe...is that required?
Check your local laws. But generally if you add a motor to it, you have to register it. Each state is different though.
The juice in that battery is gonna be gone quick,how do you recharge it while you're out?
A 29DC battery from Walmart will last several days with that setup if you’re not running the trolling motor all the time. The LEDs barely use a trickle.
Mosquito magnet!
Nothing a Thermacell can't fix
the night lighting looks fantastic.... too bad it's not allowed in wonderful California where fresh water night fishing is nearly non-existant.
really cool.
