glow jigs

[Bigman]

Why is most of the jigs around glow in the dark?

Improved visibility in lowlight conditions.  I never leave home without them or my vex.

Think about it,   your ice fishing     , your standing on a large sheet of ice that covers the whole lake,       its dark under there. Is your question answered or do i have to go in in depth explanation?

Thats okay, we are all a little cranky because we still have another month to wait untill ice fishing.

Glow in the dark jigs are the way the way to go for crappies during twighlight or after dark. A bright LED headlight will charge them up. Recharge about once every ten minutes. The glow lures really increase crappie catches in low light conditions.

I was out last weekend    My favourite crappie lake is iced over...I don't know if there is any thickness to it yet, but it won't be long since we are getting between -15 and -20 C overnight and around -10 in the day.

Well i made a topic asking if it caught crappie last month, it should be some where on the crappie forums. I personally haven't caught crappie on it, but supposedly it's possible, but the other people considered using a normal jigging rapala.

I have a small SUPER bright flashlight I keep in my tacklebox, point it at my glow jigs and brightens them right up. I was open water fishing a few months back, no luck with crappies, but snagged about a 2 or so lbs bullhead with one, biggest bullhead I have ever seen.

Are those small keychain type flashlights all the jig manufacturers worth the 10 bucks?? I have always just used a really bright small flashlight.

HT makeso ne for 5 bucks I like it its small and works well had it a couple of seasons now and the batteries still work. If all else fails use your Digi Camera Flash works good when you dont have anything else .

Northland makes one for about $6, they are cheaper than the Lindy Taser and work just as good. I picked up the LED flexlight for my VEX, I think that will be charging most of my jigs from now on.

  I have a small LED light and I recharge approx. every 5-10 mins. They do help a lot I prefer the Moon Glow Jigs in a 10 or a 12 black and gold glitter on one side, white glow on the other with a red eye   . But that's just my preference. I actually caught a 27" Pike last year on my crappie set up one night.
