    Looking for rod tip lights for catfishing at night. Something thatll let me know which of my 2 cat reels is clicking. Something thatll fit a st croix heavy power premier rod and a st croix medium heavy pro glass rod.

    Thanks in advance for replies.

    I electrical taped a small led flashlight to the rod just above the cork. Worked great. Plus you won’t fling it off when you cast like a tip mounted glow stick.

    “finger lights”
    And a small zip tie to attach.
    50 for $5 if you do some looking

    Caution using them from a boat. Depending on color it can confuse some boaters.

    I bought some reflective tape and attached to my rod tip that illuminates easily with a head lamp. Sometime I prop up a small light that points toward my rod tip rather than having my head lamp on all the time.

    X2 on reflective tape and a small light pointing in the direction of the rods. It’s amazing how well you can see the tiny bit of light on the rod tip with the tape.
