"why 6 halogens on the water was probably not good for fishing "
This always cracks me up when I see this. There are some that think the more powerful light they have the better. This fall I took newbie who was proud of his million candle power light.....Ususally they shine it in your eyes and you are blinded by it for the rest of the night.
Those lcd/led lights are great...used one all season, same batteries. and it has a "flash" mode to hail your buddies (but I never use it
)
(when I was *much* younger) I use to carry a killer spot light in the truck that plugged into the cig lighter...2mil cp I think. Any goof ball got the "beam of death" for a few minutes
