What is a good torch for shallow spearfishing?

[CurrentlyFishing]

I have one and works ok, but if the day is too bright, it won't do much to see well, you have to get really close to the rocks and by then, the fish saw me and hid. If the day is starting to get dark then it works amazingly well. I can't remember for the life of my how many LMs it is.. Maybe 300?

Orca small 300lm attaches to mask strap for re-rigging at night really helps a lot

I use a 1000lm orca hand held torch with variable strength, try not to switch on facing the target, better to turn on low Power facing away or the fish will leg it.

1000lm orca hand held works well with graduated power beam, start the torch facing away from target on low beam then slowly ease it to the target to avoid shocking the fish away. Too bright is too much.

They're really well priced! For that power I was expecting more expensive, thanks!

l love my big blue dive lights. I use a wide-angle and a narrow-angle on my left hand when I dive at night and it's amazing. I bring the narrow one during the day sometimes for wrecks or caves. I highly recommend their 1200 series.

I use Yupard diving torch maybe a 3000 lumens and it is so bright and good.
A little heavy in water but a very bright especially for night dive
