Looking to do some night fishing from camp. Do you use a light up bobber ?
If so what do you recommend for a 7 night trip? And what bait do you use?

Thill Nite Brite

Get the smaller size and a couple extra lights. One light should last the week but they can fail. Put a couple split shot, a #6 gamakatsu octopus hook and a leech under it and you're in business.

Good luck!

I use these, no supplies to keep buying, just recharge with a strong flashlight every few casts. http://www.basspro.com/Tackle-2000-Rocket-Bobber-Night-Stalker/product/10209713/ can be used in a fixed depth or slip bobber setup.

I use the Thill Splash bright bobber. They only like up when the hit the water. This saves the battery and will last for a week. On the other hand the Thill lighted bobbers with the small battery can be shut off for day use also.

I also use the thill nite brite. The batteries get a little spendy but 1 should last for a weeks worth of fishing. A split shot, plain hook and leech is how I rig mine up.
