I really like my little Nebo head torch three brightness settings on white mode then a green and red mode with the added benifit you can remove the strap and clip it on the peak of your cap.

I think you'll be happy with that I use the rechargeable CORE battery in my PETZL, but tbh they're a bit expensive if you don't use it much!

I think 2 x headtorches covers bases- Sunblesa does everything fishing wise. Sometimes need a more powerful beam when walking back to car or illuminating a spot /far bank to cast to and not stick it up branches lol.

Nitecore without doubt.
Nu25 is crazy light but also powerful, can happily sleep with it on and almost forget your wearing it.
Also got a more powerful one recently which is also great, nu40 I think it was.

I wanted a bright red headtorch, went for a fenix and it takes standard batteries.

I opted for the Tikka core and it’s brilliant! Super bright, Red LED, rechargeable or normal AAA batteries and nice and comfortable ……

I've got three slightly different Eveready head torches, each uses AAA batteries, are plenty bright enough for my needs (I'm not interested in illuminating the other side of the lake and annoying other anglers) and are very reasonably priced. Perfect for the job IMO.

There are so many out there and most are all very good ,
When i have to buy a new head torch its always LED Lenser , they just seem to last longer ,not just in power but also in construction.

Had them all including several Petzls including the Tactikka which was top of the tree 15yrs ago . . also moved onto to LED Lenser and still use my HR7.2 for occasional 'annoy everyone / far bank illumination' use. Last few years have been using the Nitecore nu25 after Gerrys recommendation and its the best allrounder to date IMO - very compact / lightweight / comfy I leave it on my head to sleep with and I don't know its there half the time - also charges quickly, is easy to operate and is more than bright enough for most standard fishing applications . . .
