Default Flounder Gigging Light Info Needed

Anyone have a good light setup to gig flounder at night. Looking for something to walk around the surf at night and gig some. (Floating light on pole are something like it)?

Several years ago some guys I used to work with would load up on them at night in GI. They would install a light bulb in a styfoam ice chest lid and float it on the water. I just dont remember all the details to build one correctly. Just looking for some more ideas.

There is an aluminum Flounder boat hanging in a boat shed on Contraband Bayou.
The kind with the Honda motor mounted on a platform and a small prop. Kinda like an air boat.

Thats how we do it, bring extra globes and wrap the side of the lantern shining towards you with aluminum foil.
