\u2753 What makes FishSense LumiCatch special?<\/h2>\n\n
LumiCatch is more than a classic bivvy light. The Basic combines dimmable LED light with a proximity sensor, Bluetooth app and power bank. Additional Support or BuzzOff poles can be paired and controlled together. This lets you turn a single light source into a lighting system for the bivvy, the path, the rod area and your work surface.<\/p>\n\n
FishSense LumiCatch \u2013 born from a real night fishing problem<\/h2>\n\n
The man behind FishSense is Bastiaan Boelens<\/strong>. The idea for LumiCatch came from a situation many night anglers know only too well: fumbling with impractical lamps in the dark while you actually need both hands for tackle, landing net, rig or fish.<\/p>\n\n

The LumiCatch Basic is the heart of the modular lighting system for the bivvy and the swim.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n This problem led to a system in which the light does not just hang somewhere in the bivvy. A LumiCatch pole can be attached to the bivvy, pushed into suitable ground or set up free-standing with additional accessories. That way you can position the lighting exactly where you actually need it.<\/p>\n\n
The benefit really shows on longer carp sessions. At night you move between the bivvy, the rods, your work area and the landing spot \u2013 and each of these areas needs different lighting.<\/p>\n\n
LumiCatch Basic \u2013 the smart LED fishing light at the heart of the system<\/h2>\n\n
The LumiCatch Basic<\/strong> is the central unit and works on its own. It combines an extendable aluminium pole with dimmable LED lighting, a battery, power bank, proximity sensor and app control.<\/p>\n\n
The pole is one metre long and extends to 1.43 metres<\/strong>. It can be attached to the bivvy or positioned directly in the swim. The aluminium housing is splash-proof to IP45<\/strong>, so it is designed for typical damp conditions and rain at the waterside \u2013 not for full submersion.<\/p>\n\n
The Basic works with dimmable warm white light at 3000 Kelvin. FishSense specifies a maximum output of 3 watts. You can operate it directly on the lamp or via the LumiCatch app.<\/p>\n\n
Proximity sensor \u2013 automatic light on the way from the bivvy to the rods<\/h2>\n\n
One of the most interesting features of the LumiCatch Basic is the proximity sensor<\/strong>. The light can switch on automatically when you walk past the lamp.<\/p>\n\n
