I've heard of bass fisherman using black lights to night-fish. They use a line that "glows" in the light, said they could see the slightest line-twitch...sounded very interesting. Seemed to me that it'd work for crappie fishing as well. Might be worth a try. Let us know if you give it a try, and how it goes.

Try directional lighting to put the light where you need it to be and off of you, the bugs will follow the light path. Power inverters greatly increase your lighting options and allow for so less drain on your power supply and lower bulb costs.

Fish after midnight, there will be far fewer bugs to deal with.
