Underwater Illumination
April 9th, 2008
If you’ve been around the coast for long, you’ve undoubtedly seen a lot of docks with lights hanging under the dock to illuminate the water. Many docks have green light eminating from underneath in an effort to attract bait fish and ultimately predators, like snook. A company out of Tampa Bay, Florida has taken this a step further and made undersea illumination. These lights are actually submerged in the water off of your dock, marina, harbor, canal or seawall. What’s the difference does it make if the light is beneath the surface? True illumination. You won’t have the water reflecting the light back to you. You will be able to see fish the silhouette of all the fish swimming over the lights. Not only can you just look down and see when a big snook is sitting waiting for a nice shrimp to be dropped on his head, but it makes for a nice view as well. Turning your dock or marina into your own personal aquarium. Check out this video of the lights at work:
