  • tip lights

    Anyone tried these tip lights read about them in sea angler h20 bite alert £5 each and had good report, so checked ebay and found these worth a shot, not that i will rely upon them but seem canny for a light if they last 1000 hrs!!

    not sure how it works canny though if you get a tug the end flashes red

    I was thinking about getting one till I seen a lad with one and after five min it was getting on my tits flashing also it must take a good knock to set it off as he got two and it didn't indicate a bite.

      Prefer to use my own judgement but worth a go and if u get 1000 hrs will be a laugh bough 2 so they will be getting used fish matches quite a bit so more timing than bites but might be fun

        I use these, just use bait elastic to tie them to the tip, saves staring at the tip all night.

            reflective tape and a headlamp is the way forward

              IMHO they are crap
              In order to become "old & wise", you must first be young & stupid.
              Age and experience will beat youth and enthusiasm every time.

                  i got a couple of the h20 lights and personally i dont think they work. Tried them on one nite session had plenty of fish and the light did not change colour so i decided to change back to my old trusty tip lights

                      so what tip lights do people recomend then ?? not sure about now but i remember years ago having nothing but trouble with the line getting caught round the tip light, they where rather big and the wind ( even a light breeze) would wobble the tip all over the place
                      remember the old days with an led on the top with wires running through the rod to a battery fastened to the rod butt.....ideal while fishing but a royal pain in the backside all other times lol
