something out of the ordinary

[jr1945]

for me that is!

tried something different with this bait ( 5 1/2", slow sinking). had this irridesant powder lying around and thought i would give this a try. no paint, just sprayed it with polyuratane, dumped the powder on, let it dry, shook of the loose powder and coated it wit 4 coats of poly to lock the powder on.

first pictur in the daylight shows how basic it is. second pic is after a 10 sec. exposure to sunlight. glowed well for approx. 1/2 hour and was still easily seen after an hour. a flash worked good but the glow faded sooner.

should be fun at night! at least i will be able to see where i cast it ;D.

Salmon and trout bait for sure.

I use glow white on jigging spoons and catch all kinds of bass - white, largemouth, or stripers.  I brush on several heavy coats of acrylic based glow paint, then dip the bait in moisture cure polyurethane.  Even on a cloudy day, the ambient light is plenty strong enough to energize the paint for hours and it really shines in deep water.  The glow intensity is directly related to the size and number of the glow grains the paint contains, so you have to brush it on instead of shooting it with an airbrush.
