Does the color of the LED fish set light matter? This is an important question. Some fishermen believe that the choice of LED fish set light color is critical, while others believe it is irrelevant. Scientifically, there are studies showing that both views may be correct. Choosing a suitable color may improve the chances of attracting fish, provided that the environmental development conditions are suitable.

Fish have been around for more than 450 million years and are remarkable creatures. Over thousands of years, they have made many subtle adaptations in the marine environment. Living in an aquatic world is not easy, with both high environmental opportunities and serious challenges. For example, sound is 5 times faster in water than in air. The ocean is actually a very noisy place. By having good hearing, fish can use their inner ear and lateral line to detect prey or avoid enemies. Seawater also contains unique compounds that fish use to identify other species, find food, detect predators, and perform other functions when breeding season arrives. However, the water is a serious challenge to both eyesight and color for fish and fishermen. Many properties of light change rapidly with changes in water flow and depth.

Scientific and technological research results show that all members of this social food chain are sensitive to blue and green colors. This occurs because water absorbs longer wavelengths (Mobley 1994; Hou, 2013). The color of water can develop to a large extent depending on the composition of marine life, combined with the absorption spectrum of different light in water. Colored soluble organic matter in water quickly absorbs blue light, then turns green, then yellow (exponential decay to wavelength), making the water tan.

Fishing lights are usually available in blue, green, and white colors depending on the type of water you want to fish in. Scientific and technological research results show that all members of this social food chain are sensitive to blue and green colors. This occurs because water absorbs longer wavelengths (Mobley 1994; Hou, 2013).

Fresh water: Green light is better than white light. (White light gets absorbed quickly.)

Salty water:  Green light or blue light. (Blue light won’t attract baitfish in freshwater.)

FUJIAN CAS-CERAMIC OPTOELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY CO ., Ltd. has conducted in-depth research on marine fishery for a long time, and independently developed an LED fish collection lamp dedicated to fishing with fishery lights. Its unique spectrum and color temperature shine into the water, quickly It penetrates deep into the bottom of the water, and the organic matter in the water will be quickly attracted to the center of the light, thereby attracting more predatory fish to gather under the light, and the fishermen can easily catch more fish. LED fish-collecting lights do not need to use traditional ballasts, and can be used directly by installing a 220V switch. It not only provides fishermen’s catch, but also saves energy and protects the environment. The products cover major fishing ports at home and abroad.
