Super Deep Light

Sun, 2016-01-24 16:07

Esca Blue Lights are our favourite, either slow fade or multi blink. Attach to swivel on top of your bottom rig or to swivel that meets your super deep jig.

ebay - led deep drop light 

$2.28 each pick your colour 

cheapest option by far

gets expensive with esca lights when u get a few bite offs

i attach it to the dropper loop just above the hooks, as in the same dropper the hooks are looped onto

ive found blue and multi colour to be the best 

caught plenty of reds and Goldie's up north last year using then

 

 I have a cool video of a nice red sitting in the box on the boat with hooks in its mouth and one of these lights flashing

As mentioned Ryan and all us

As mentioned Ryan and all us staff have been using Esca Lights through Oceanside for many years , at $ 26.95 with your fishwrecked discount you are getting pure quality deep drop light. Which will last you 3 or 4 seasons. Also if you dont want to loose them on the regular due to bite offs dont run them on the dropper loop , Attach to swivel on top of your bottom rig or to the swivel that meets your super deep jig. We have done it this way for many years an rarely loose them. Cheers

Deep drop light

 As said above by blackgen, i have also been using lights sourced off ebay for years, costing no more than $1.50 a light

You can not tell the difference between an esca and the $1.50 model, they look exactly the same and perform the same

Still using the same light i was using in coral bay June last year

Sorry Oceanside but cant see how the price is justified

 I tend to agree

i enjoy buying from Oceanside when I can but with almost a $25 difference per light I also can't justify it

sorry guys not trying to take business away but I feel this is one area eBay takes the cake

Any good in shallower water?

Do these make any difference in shallower water?

Say 40 to 70 meters for example?
