I love fishing at night very much, but days ago, my flashlight is broken. I am looking for a new one now, but find flashlights on the market changed a lot. I check some sites such as sure fire, fenix, streamlight, tank007 flashlight, etc. all flashlights seem good to me, I am not sure now what specs of flashlight are best for fishing. What kind of flashlights are you using when fish at night?

X2 on the headlamp. And SuperNovaFishing lights are the bomb, you didn't ask about boat lights, but thought I'd throw that in.

Been thinking about fishing lights...

Got a package of Atwood boat lights and just ordered a couple of white LED battery work light for the interior of the outback.
Was wondering about those green fishing lights in fresh water.

I used some of the cheaper LEDs in the interior of my last kayak, but am going to buy the stick on 4 in LEDs from SuperNova for the interior of my Outback.
Can't say the green lights attract(we move around a lot bass fishing) fish like they claim, but you can see pretty well with them. And the bass boats can see you, big plus for safety.

Edit: Saw your other post and will add, my lights are not mounted underwater.

A headlamp with a secondary red light works best as it preservs night vision. I think I have a black diamond and it works great. it had three modes, long throw bright as hell beam, localized ambient light and red.

After consider twice, I get a Tank007 flashlight at last,which has three kinds of light, yellow, blue and red, good for fishing. Maybe you can consider that.

Thanks for your replies, finally, I purchased a tank007 fishing flashlight, which can produce three types of light, red, blue and yellow, good for fishing.

I use headlamps as well as a Rayovac Indestruct LED spotlight - waterproof, runs on standard AA batteries for a long time and super bright. About $40.

LED underwater fishing lights from toponechoice. not only lighting at night but also attracting the fish.
