If your looking for a good light, I use the Cat Eyes clip on. It clips on to the brim of your hat. The 3 LEDs are bright and the thing is so light weight you won't even know you have it on your hat! I then take along a Streamlight for tracking at night! The cat Eyes are like $12.00!

I bought Cabela's Alaskan guide headlamp w/ the green LED's & xenon, I highly recommend it. It's comfortable, bright & rugged, one of my better buys.

Chris, you need a permit from the FWC to hunt with Lights in FL!


Hunting wildlife at night with a light.

Question
Do I need a permit to hunt coyotes or other nuisance wildlife on my farm at night with a light? If so, what permit is needed and where do I get one?

Answer
The display or use of a light at night while in possession of a gun, bow or crossbow in areas where wildlife may be found is prohibited, except as authorized by a permit issued by the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. A Gun and Light at Night Permit is required to use a firearm and a light at night to remove nuisance armadillo, beaver, bobcat, coyote, fox, possum, rabbit, raccoon, skunk, or hog causing destruction of crops and/or livestock .

The Gun and Light at Night Permit does NOT authorize removal of any species other than those listed above. To learn more about the permit or to apply go to: http://myfwc.com/permits/glnpermit.htm. Click Here for information about the controlling deer that are causing damage to agricultural crops.

For more information about other laws relating to destructive wildlife go to: http://myfwc.com/critters/policy.htm. For other methods of removing nuisance wildlife, including coyotes, go to http://myfwc.com/critters/default.asp.

We use Lights and Dogs, but use Knives, No Firearms!

the light is to get back and forth from my stand in the dark! lol

I too use the light to get to and from my stand and also go in the dark., butI unscrew the Lens cap and install a Red Cellophanepaperinsidethe Lens.

I thought I would mention the Hunting &Lights to you, because I know many FL hunters who hunt hogs with Head Lamps!
