Night Lights

[Golden Paws]

I’ve recently started taking a pair of flood lights with me. They are absolutely brilliant as they provide a nice even light that makes tying rigs or cooking a meal dead easy and no more faffing about with head torches. I’ve got a 3kW portable power station with LiFePO4 batteries that will provide enough juice to run them for at least two full winter nights.

The picture below is me on the right and my mate is in the next swim. He’s a bit of a wimp and only went for some cheap lower powered lights. The photo was taken by another mate who was fishing the far bank but I think he’s a bit jealous as he said it was like fishing at an airport! It will make landing fish after dark pretty easy but I haven’t actually needed it yet, the fish on my lake seem to have shut up shop since I’ve been trying it out.

Hate to say it but I'd be somewhat upset if someone set up floodlights in the swim next to me.

Absolutely disgraceful in my opinion. Use just enough light and only when you need it. 
 

that being said, the use of this sort of lighting in an angling environment could be detrimental to bats and as such could be a prosecutable offence. 
 

something tells me the post is satire though.
