Don't let your ears hear what your eyes didn't see, and don't let your mouth say what your heart doesn't feel

I need to build one of those. And for the record, I never asked for permission to post that pic, a friend texted me the pic, and just offered that I could post it on here. Just didn't want the forum to think if you send me a pic I'll go post it on the net, that would not be cool, I got my internet cred to protect.

4 pods and a 20 in for now. Soon to be a 10 on one side 20 in the front and 6 on the other side. Have all the stuff just no time. Why 10 on one side and 6 on the other? Why not the same on each side? I assume you mean 6 inch and 10 inch lights.

That's a very nice set up your buddy has. He will regret the mounting brackets that came with the 2 on the outside. I had those exact lights and those brackets are made of very cheap, very thin aluminum. Once the front of the boat bounces around, those brackets will bend very easily. They also don't stay tight. Just something I've learned and experienced. Maybe he's smarter than me and found a better way to mount them though. Not possible. The cheap ones are just as good as the Rigid.  I think it makes a big difference if you permanently mount them to your boat (as I believe cinchman did), vs what I plan on doing and what my friend did, mount them to the easy on/off gatortrax bracket. I will put them on the way to the duck hole then they will come off and go in storage. You leave them on all the time, especially if you leave your boat outside, water will get in and lights will overall take a beating, in this situation, Rigid quality pays off. I never had a problem with the actual lights. Just the brackets they came with. Never had water or anything get in mine and they worked perfectly. However, I don't see the brackets holding up on those gatortrax the way you guys drive them.
Say When.....

10in on the starboard side 6in on the port side. That way it doesn't interfere with my trolling motor mount.
