Abstract: An elongated cylindrical handle constructed of transparent material, such as clear plastic, containing a flashlight-type mechanism for illuminating the handle which is attachable to a fishing pole so as to provide an illumination device integral with a fishing pole for use in changing tackle, baiting a fishing hook, enticing fish, or accessory lighting by a fisherman during dark periods of the day. The handle is detachable from the fishing pole to provide commpactness for storage or handling and so that the handle can be illuminated with the fishing pole attached or, on the other hand, the handle can be used as an ordinary flashlight with the fishing pole removed.
