LED balloons

Took the kids to the Royal show on Wednesday (big rip off) but wandering thru one of the pavilions spotted one stand that sold LED balloons 8 in a pack for $4 tried one out last night and very bright would be perfect for balloon fishing at night time they have a fixed LED light inside a normal balloon I bought two packs each pack has various different colours.Anyone tried these in the past for fishing?

I did also notice that there were no stores having any fishing or outdoor displays like in previous years

Used to drop a chemical light

Used to drop a chemical light stick inside the balloon for the same effect - white or yellow balloons are brighter than the dark colours as far as letting light through

Royal Adealide Show isn't what it used to be either!!
