Light attracts plankton, plankton attracts baitfish, baitfish attract predators, so in theory it works. It is unlawful to use lights to attract fish in Minnesota to.
Keep a close eye on your regulators guys and gals. In the future, they might determine that Techniglow glow bait you are using as an artificial light source and make them illegal also. Who knows what idiocy they our politicians will come up with next. No such laws in Ohio yet for using lighting.
Baitfish are attracted to the light for sure, hence the presence of gamefish as well. Check your local regs, I know here in Ontario it's illegal to shine fish whether from above or submerged.
Ive been looking at getting one of those lights you lower down the hole even has a rattler built right in 12 volt small bulb and for less than 20 bucks I might give it a try anybody try that yet? I tryed last year lowering a flashlight down but the cold killed the batteries quick
they throw off a lot of interference that my Vez cannot clean up.
hmmm something I had not thought of and Im a big fan of compact floresent lightbulbs esp in my portable ( worried about melting the cover)and to be a new vex owner Ill have to change my thoughts on lighting
Fish can't see infrared lights and the game warden can't either. They are invisible.
P.S.Don't take a Jack Russel Terrier ice fishing with you!!!!!!!!!!! ...WK
Mr game warden certainly can see it if he has night vision at his disposal. Illuminators for night vision rifle scopes and binoculars use IR light.
