BIO
Ryan Gingrich is an avid night fisherman, proud Veteran, family man, and owner of IllumiSea Aquatic Lighting Co.
Growing up in Lancaster Pennsylvania, his passion for fishing started at a young age spending time fishing freshwater streams for trout and farm ponds for bass and crappie with his brother and dad. Fast forward 30+ years, and it was his turn to create the same memories with his four boys. Only the outings were fewer and further between due to having commitments to the U.S. military. His boys truly love being on the water and fishing, and during his time at home, he wanted to take full advantage of it.
One night his oldest son Brody caught his very first striped bass on a green underwater light. A few weeks later, IllumiSea was born. After looking into underwater lights for fishing at night, he was super disappointed to find everything on the market was cheap "single-use" quality, or priced at a range only Saudi Kings could afford. So he took things into his own hands and started designing a reliable and ultra bright underwater light to lengthen fishing trips past dusk. 18+ months later and he now has the most reliable memory-making light on the market. It has been put through some severe military-grade testing too. His kids love it, he loves it, and even his wife thinks it looks great... plus the fish can't get enough!
Now, he is bringing it to the market so that other families can enjoy building the same lifelong memories just like his family has! This page highlights a few of the memories created by IllumiSea 💡
