It is well known that many species of fresh and saltwater fish mainly feed at night, but it is often difficult to catch them. Underwater fishing lights solve this problem by bringing the fish right to you. After a short amount of time in the water, the light causes a chain reaction.

The light initially attracts masses of microscopic marine algae called phytoplankton that cloud the water.  These small organisms attract common bait fish to the light and after 15-30 minutes they will appear to be memorized by the light and continuously swim circles around it. These baitfish are all you need to make for the best night fishing experience you have ever had. Predator fish will begin to crowd the light and take advantage of the easy meal! 

Soon after the phytoplankton and baitfish show up the predator fish will too. Fishing the outer edges of the light will produce more bites than directly in the light. That's where the bigger fish will be circling and occasionally dart into the light for an easy meal.  Matching the bait size and color that is swimming around the light will result in significantly more strikes.  If you prefer using live bait, just net a few swimming around the light and "match the hatch" perfectly!

Any commonly found 12v battery or 110v outlet will power the light. The light's draw is minimal compared to other lights but we do push 150 watts making it one of the most powerful 12v lights available!  The light will draw 12.5 amps per hour on a 12v battery.  Using a separate and designated deep cell battery with 100+ AH is recommended.  

The best way to size a battery and determine how long it will last is by the amp-hour (AH) rating on the battery. A 12.5 AH battery will last 1 hour, a 25 AH battery will last 2 hours, and so on. Do not get AH confused with cranking amps as they are different.  Using a "starting" type battery will not damage the light but will not last as long as a "deep cell" marine battery that is designed to take a slow continuous drain. 

Using the optional 110v converter will allow the light to run all night!

The heavy-duty marine-grade cord is 30-120 ft long but the light has been pressure tested to 150 feet. It also carries an IP68 waterproof rating. You won't find a deeper rated fishing light.

Our LED fishing lights have some of the industry's highest luminous efficiency ratings.  The LED technology is advancing very quickly making more efficient and brighter lights with much less energy. Our lights have been tested by a third party lab and resulted in:

Green REEL BriteBite Model

        Luminous Efficiency: 138.3309lm/w  Lumens per watt

        Max Lumens : 20,749 Lumens

Actual lumens vary with the color of the LED, supplied current, and other factors.  This light is bright enough to penetrate cloudy waters but using it in extremely muddy waters is not recommended. We also have a much smaller model called the MINI BriteBite.

SALTWATER APPROVED!

Many saltwater species are attracted to underwater lights such as snook, redfish, seatrout, rockfish, snapper, tuna, shrimp, squid, and a huge variety of bait fish! 

FRESHWATER APPROVED!

Many freshwater species are attracted to underwater lights such as a variety of bass, crappie, trout, catfish, perch, and a variety of freshwater baitfish!

The light is self-weighted and will sink in calm waters.  If used in a strong current/tide area we recommend adding a lead weight to the bottom hook to keep the light from moving too much. This will allow the more "finicky" species of fish to feel comfortable in the light. We also recommend using a separate lowering line attached to the top hook to prolong the life of the power cord.  

We are a family owned and operated business that specializes in creating memorable experiences through our innovative line of aquatic lights. Founded by a Special Operations Combat Veteran and his wife in 2017, IllumiSea came to fruition on a fall evening while fishing with our 4 sons.

Being a family who loves to fish we purchased an underwater light for our dock. Our 6-year-old son cast out his line into a massive bait ball swarming around the light. Within minutes he had a bite and caught himself his very first striped bass!!! Within those moments of him having a smile that couldn't be wiped off his face, IllumiSea was born.

We knew we wanted to give others the chance to have a moment like this one. The time as a family that we spend around the light each evening is priceless. Those moments spent together mean so much especially being a military family. Our moments are limited with one another so much, that we have created a family adage. An adage of “collect moments not things”.

We hope that if you choose to purchase a light from us that that one thing you do “collect” will bring you a million moments filled with lasting memories! It sure has for our family of 6!!!
