Gigging in Beaufort

Anyone having success lately? Finally got my lights and ready to hit the tides tomorrow.

Nice rig! Keep us posted on how it works. I we got a dozen 2 weeks ago.

Good lord, that look dangerous! Good luck

Good luck! Post how you do!

That’s a cool light set up! Take us a picture on how good it lights up the area around you! I’m curious. You using a generator or batteries to power the lights?

Pretty sure those are 12 vdc LEDs Fred…

Love all the new lights for gigging! But I am a battery man and too many lights can eat thru the batteries. I’m apposed to fumes and noise in an otherwise peaceful way to hunt flatfish!

LEDs don’t eat batteries nearly as fast with their low current draw. I rigged mine to run off 24 vdc to cut amperage in half. I have over 21,000 lumens operating at less than 14 amps, giving me at least 12 hours on a charge.

With all of the different LED’s available today, hard to believe anyone would wanna use a generator. Safer and cheaper!!

Creekbound, i’m guessing you have to lift those lights when running?

Good luck with the sticking!
