A lot of people buying them for night fishing, since it's cooler. Keep looking or go to a auto parts place and make your own.


All fishermen are legends in their own minds! Ranger Boats, Yamaha Outboards, Humminbird Electronics,Motor guide, and all the tackle in the world.

Acadamy, bass pro, Cabellas...look online, order, pick it up off your porch in a couple days! Did you look at Walmart? Everyone's going to the LED's but the old fashion car headlight in a piece of styrofoam is still made.

I was looking for the old Styrofoam ones but no stores had them in stock. They only sell them online. Its been so long since i bought one but i remember you could go to walmart, academy,etc. and pick one up. Instead of waiting for one to get shipped to you. It just frustated me.

That's my most aggravating problem. If I need it, I have to buy it online.


Be safe,

I used to use the floating kind for crappie fishing, but now I use the kind that are in the glass tube and it sinks down about two or three feet... It works just as well, but won't attract all those bugs.

car headlight ones use too much batt power and you have to carry a car batt.the sinkable ones you can use a deer feeder batt.much lighter to carry and last longer.just my 2c worth

Yesterday OKC BPro had dozens of them on end display. Lots of submersibles, too.


Fishing, a man knows a serenity of soul and peace of mind that he finds in doing nothing else, and it makes no difference whether or not he catches anything. The mind of a true fisherman is not on petty subjects.
