Did you know non-fishermen came up with the idea of glow in the dark fishing lures? They have worked so well that they have become a fad to fishermen all across America. According to those who have used them, the fish like them better than the others lures even during the day.

When fish get hungry, they look for food that stands out from everything else. Since the sun’s rays can’t touch the normal shiny lures under the water, the lures appear to be gray, and the fish aren’t attracted to them very much. A glow in the dark lure picks up the smallest amount of light, causing it to shine and flash under water. It quickly catches the fish’s attention and lures it to the hook.

It isn’t necessary to buy expensive glow in the dark lures. You can buy a small can of bright glow in the dark paint. Bright green is highly recommended by experienced fishermen. Dip the end of the lures you already own in it. Let them dry completely. Spray them with a colorless varnish or spray paint. Once that dries, the lures will be ready to use.

Did you know you can just add glow in the dark paint to different parts of a lure and you don’t have to dip the whole end in the paint? Choose parts that will cause the lure to flash or flicker in the water.

If you plan to fish at night with glow in the dark lures, purchase a portable fluorescent light or black light to take with you. Place the lures under the light for three to five minutes. After that, they will glow for 8 hours. You can put your lures under the light for five seconds or more before you cast your line in the daytime, too. Then you won’t have to wonder if the lure is shining under the water or not.

Fishermen who have used the glow in the dark fishing lures say they catch a lot more fish than with normal lures. Why not try them out and see if they really work? There’s no reason why you can’t catch more fish, too.

Fishing is one of those hobbies that some people cannot do without. If you are a fisherman, then you cannot do without your fishing lures and your fishing reels.
