Howdy
I've got a sealed beam light on a pole that I use for floundering (hope it's not illegal). I find that I can get about 6 hours of light from a full 12V battery....just not quite enough to last out the night! I have also seen guys on piers using weighted Dolphin torches (waterproof) on ropes to attract squid....I was sceptical, but the guy who was using them swore by it. Expensive I would imagine with batteries@>$8 each!
Also while floundering I have seen small (5cm) squid grab tiny mullet illuminated in the light - awesome to see
