Crappie light fishing.  Well sort of

And those are 2x6 deck bords on the pier. You do the math.

 this one if you zoom in on the light there were thousands of what looked like mosquito larva going to the light.   I thought I had a leak . It looked like bubbles coming off it at first. The tiny Fri were tearing them up. So was the two small gills in the picture.

That bull head coming to the light brings back memories.

I had one swim up a 6 inch hole in 2 foot of ice to the Coleman lantern hanging from the ceiling of my shanty. It took me a little while to find a glove to get it out of the hole. They are really good eating coming out of that cold water.

Neat photos, thanks for sharing.

Do you think the fish are attracted to the light, the food that comes to the light, or both?

Oooh, I wish we could here in NH but jacklighting is illegal. Great pics!

Awesome.  I still have memories of being a kid fishing off the Stillwater bridge, at night.  There we're enough subsurface lights in the river at this time.  A huge catfish was just prowling around in between all the fishing lures under the bridge.  Great memories.
