advice

would like to start night fishing already got head lamp was asking for a tilley lamp is there any thing else i would need

Wouldn't bother with a tilley lamp, something else to carry! A mobile phone is a must though. Take care if fishing over low water, especially when fishing cut-off areas like sandbars and rock marks. I do quite a bit of my fishing at night.

a tip light for your rod would help loads of different types to choose from and everyone has there favorite , after trying quite a few i now prefer the little snap light / glow stick types . hope this help's

tilley lamps was good use a few years back but some marks like piers or walls etc with no railings can be decieving they cast a shadow near the edge and ive heard a few tales of people miss judging the edge and ending up in the water not sure what there real use was years back but do give off a good light i still own one but havent used it in years

you need plenty of dry warm gear for the winter, i have a set of salopettes for piers etc and neoprene waders for the rocks and beaches. No good being wet and cold and not moving around too much.
i have a headlamp and a spare handheld torch, i use reflective tape on my rod tip and also on my tripod, so if i wonder out to cast, a quick scan with the headlamp shows up the tripod ;D
i also have a coleman northstar tilley lamp. works a trat in the winter, keeps your hands warm ;D i dont care if it means more gear, it makes me comfy lol
a mobile is a must, and a reccie of the area you are wanting to fish over low tide during the day. night time is so disieving.
i prefer fishing at night
