If you are fishing for tuna or swords, blue all the way. I would not think twice about that. Think about it this way, you are already putting white light into the water from your spreader lights, add different color, typically on tough nights, guys fishing with swordlights or hydroglow lights produce a little better, they are running either green or blue lights, not white. Also blue will make it easier for you to see bait and your target species in the water, white may make it harder to see them. Blue is also easier on your eyes to look at in the water, and will look awesome at the dock too. What brand are you looking to go with? Show us some picks after it is done!!

I'am going to use abyss underwater lighting.Heard some
stuff about them. Will probably go with one large blue
inbetween engines and 2 smaller white floods on outboard
either side of engines with separate
switchs for each color

Sounds like an awesome setup. Did you repower, I think I saw your engines for sale in the Salty Dog(I believe the picture had them on your transom and had the name). What did you repower with F250's? I've heard good things about Abyss underwater lights, have not had any experience with them yet. At work we use Sea Vision underwater lights and so far they have been excellent. I'd like to add underwater lights, but it isn't in my budget this season, let me know how your turn out and how satisfied you are.
