FOXPRO Releases Innovative Bowfishing Lights

The FOXPRO Mudcutter Light Kit is the most advanced and user-friendly LED bowfishing light system on the market. The Mudcutter Light Kit allows bowfisherman to customize the light intensity and hue, ranging between 2000K to 6000K, which can be done via the wireless remote control or the hard-wired rheostat.

Depending on water conditions, whether murky or clear, different hues of white light will penetrate better. The Mudcutter is as easy as pressing the on/off button and using the gradual light color change buttons to select your desired hue and the brightness up and down buttons to select your desired light intensity. Instant full white, full amber, and full mixed buttons are also provided for your convenience.

Mudcutter lights are designed to operate two banks from 1 remote. So if an additional kit is purchased, they can both be operated independently from the same remote. Mudcutter lights run on a battery (12V DCOnly) or generator (110V AC / 120V AC). The Mudcutter Light Kit is backed by a 2-year warranty and FOXPRO’s unmatched customer support.

FOXPRO’s new Bowfire was designed to be the most advanced and user-friendly bowfishing light on the market. With its patented 3 colors in one led selection, switching colors has never been easier! Why the need to switch colors quickly? Depending on water conditions, whether murky or clear, different hues of white light will work and penetrate better. With competitor lights, you will need to unscrew the LED modules to change the hue.

The Bowfire is as easy as turning the selector switch to quickly adapt to changing water conditions. The Bowfire gives you 2 on/off methods. The first is a constant on/off for constant light. The second is a momentary on/off, which works better for light-sensitive fish. And the dimmer controls allow you to control the intensity of the light for the best brightness for water conditions. The spot-to-flood feature allows you to adjust the light beam, so whether you are bowfishing from the banks, or on a boat where extended range is needed for fish further away, the Bowfire has you covered. High capacity Lithium Ion battery and charger included for extended run times. The FOXPRO Bowfire is backed by a 3-year LED replacement warranty, a 1-year tail cap and accessories warranty, and FOXPRO’s unmatched customer support. Read more
