ILLUMINATION

CharkBait's Favorite Swordfish AND Bait Lights

HYDRO GLOW lights are the preferred night light for attracting bait, baitfish, squid, and predatory fish that feed on these critters. The Hydro Glow lights are the best available for private boaters, the most recommended fish attracting lights on the market, and they have been for many years. They are not the least expensive, but when the full package is considered, they represent a very worthwhile investment in fish catching technology. The Hydro Glow Fish Lights patented design utilizes the green light technology for improving your fishing activities during the night-time hours. The light is designed to vertically submerge with only the top 3 to 5 inches of the light above the water level. This insures the entire illumination of the light is in the water where to fish are, not the bugs!!.   The luminating effect of the green light in water is far superior to other colors of light, that's what the commercial swordfish guys use, that's what many professional guides employ, that's also what we private boaters should be using. It's been reported that green allows the light to penetrate farther and attract more life. The superior light penetration and design does several things; virtually 100% of the light is submerged in the water, not floating on the surface; the area affected by the light is much larger with a 360 degree range; the larger area affected by the light attracts more bait fish as well as game fish to your targeted area. The lights are complete package, shipped with a nice storage case to protect your investment. The lights come with alligator clips, but you can also simply add the lights to your boat's 12 volt electrical system if you are inclined. Hydro Glow lights are made to last, made to absorb some punishment and keep on working for years. They are flat out worth the money in my opinion.

Bait Attracting Lights
from Brinkman and Optronics

The key to catching white seabass is the possession of "Candy Bait" also known as squid, the makings of calamari to us human-types.  Every type of fish in the sea relishes feeding on squid, there's no better bait.  While you can sometimes buy your bait, the best way to go is to make your own when the squid are available, and they've been available here off Southern California all along our coast.  We're offering five different styles of lights this week. All come with battery clips, and they're submersible. The Optronix lights pictured above are standbys, used for many years here.  They use a halogen light.  The light pictured in the middle above is cooled by water.  It also features a built in rattle.  The lights on either side of it use a sealed bulb, for better long term reliability. The newest light from Optronix is pictured on the left above.  It offers a longer 20' power cord, sealed halogen bulb and three different lenses.  The green color lens should be particularly favored for floating bait.  The other Optronix light pictured center offer 15' cord and share 300,000 candlepower illumination.  The Q-Beam Starfire II light pictured to the right offers 250,000 candlepower and is a sealed system unlike the Night Blaster.  It has 10' of cord with battery terminal clips.

The two lights pictured left are florescent tube lights that feature a green illumination.  This color has been proven to attract both gamefish and bait.  Many of the local six-pack boats (like Bongos) make use of a very similar light (which they pay $100 and more for).  This light is most often used with a 5 or 6 ounce sinker to put it down into the water (10 oz for the larger magnum model).  The green glowing light produces an effect similar to a full moon's glow.   All of these lights work very well, and are well worth their cost.  If you really want to give yourself the edge, use either of the halogen lights along with the florescent tube.  The combination will really help bring in the bait.
