Another day on the Fitzroy

Night bait fishing tips

Put a bit of fluro spray on your floats for night time.

Use this headlamp. It projects UVA (not so dangerous one) and the floats will stand out like the proverbial parts of the dogs anatomy.

I've got a little uv torch and it can fluoresce a float at 8 metres at night. I used a chartreuse floater and a red floater (both fluro) and my little uv torch (very low powered). Lit both up with the chartreuse one brighter (human eye more receptive to chartreuse/green than red).

8 metres was the limit with that little torch.

This headlight will give a lot more range than that.

Camera doubled up on images. From 8 metres on narrow focus UV torch. Better with focus a bit wider hence headlamp style torch which also does normal light.

Also works on bottom bait fishing by tiny fluro spray on a couple of inches/cm on rod tip. Fluro spray easy to wipe off when session ends.
