I have read that many predator fish are cureous to the sound of motors humming and even some musical artists played loudly over your boat speakers. At night, light obviously attracts bait and then bigger fish as well as scents and noises like rattles and vibrating lures.
Guess since these are all forms of a "wave" (sound, light or vibration) guess shooting some electric "waves" might, in theory, create some predator fish interest. Like anything else though, if they aren't there to begin with, there will be no one to be attracted to it. Hard to decide on its' efficacy.
Here's something to ponder, will you notice an increase in galvanic corrosion on your motor or anodes or the downrigger line with this leaky current?
