Best Fishing Light Attractants Buying Guide
Before choosing the best fishing light you should consider following options:
1. Battery Life: Batteries are the heart of your LED light system. The quality of the batteries will determine how long your light will last. An important factor to consider is the amount of time the batteries take to charge and the number of times the batteries can be charged.
Some batteries can be charged hundreds of times and others only a few times. The quality of the battery will depend on the quality of materials used, the size of the battery and the ability of the battery to discharge stored power.
2. Lumen Output: Lumens measure the total light output of a light source. A high lumen output is important for illuminating large areas.
You should also consider the quality of the light produced. Good quality light will enhance the colors of the fish and the overall experience.
3. Number of LEDs: Typically more LEDs will result in a brighter light. However, you should be aware that more LEDs generally results in a lower throw distance.
A lower throw distance is important to consider if you will be fishing from a boat. If you are fishing from a boat then you will need to purchase a light that has a low throw distance.
4. Throw Distance: Throw distance is the distance that light travels from the source and is an important factor to consider if you will be fishing from a boat.
5. Brightness Uniformity: Brightness uniformity refers to the even distribution of light across a given area.
If the brightness is not even, then you may find that the edges of your area are brighter or darker than the center. This could hinder your ability to see your fish clearly.
6. Mounting Options: You should always ensure that your light has the proper mounting options to suit your needs. Some lights are designed to be handheld while others are suited for mounting on a pole or on your boat.
Some lights will have a swivel head that allows you to direct the light in any direction. Other lights will have a fixed head which directs the light in a straight line.
