Spotlight for boat

 Hey guys, 

 

Just looking for recommendations on a spotlight to mount to the bow rail of my centre console as I do a fair bit of night fishing.

Cheers,

Mitch

to keep your hands free, I always carry a hand held LED one, so that at night if you have to look at something that is outside the beam you have that option. Did a hell of a lot of night fishing in Karratha
