More than likely, snakes coming to a light are water snakes looking for a meal, just like the fish. My history with snakes in 18 years on LM, they show up in early Spring, and as soon as you start the lawn mower, the WeedEater, the boat/waverunner engines, the swimming, etc, POOF, they are gone. Some exceptions, but few. They WILL come out of hiding to get into a minnow trap or a fish box at dockside. Bulkhead rip-rap is perfect habitat. And, our common water snake is VERY similar to a Cottonmouth. Big fish darting across an underwater light at night is a delightful sight. Don't let the chance of a snake ruin that for you.
