What do you use to glow jigs?

[mike morris]

I've tried many different types of lights and LED's. I recently bought a "black light" ballcap LED and it has worked the best by far. It glows the jigs real fast, and it holds a glow the longest.

I use a Garrity 3-volt LED penlight I picked up at HDepot for 4.75. Very(!) bright, very solid, and very convenient. Makes those babies glow like the sun...

Lure Lightning works great, but eats up alot of battery juice.

I have a Photon Microlight with a white LED that I use to get them glowing.

I tested my Neon Glow jigs I just received today from the OPS on this site, and I got sick of waiting for the one I charged up to stop glowing after 15 minutes. It was getting dimmer, but still glowing.

One way is an old film camera flash...intense, but the glow doesn't last exceptionally long. I have started using a 4 LED headlamp to charge mine up. So far seems to work pretty good.

I just have a little LED light I charge with. Doesn't last a long time but it works.

me led fishtrap lights i just hold the jig up to them.

I use one of those Tazer lights by Lindy? I think it's Lindy. Works great and super portable.

I use the Northland Glo-Buster lure light. I just clip it to a lanyard around my neck and give the jig a zap now and then.

I use the flash from a disposable camera.

I use a K2 Luxeon flashlight. Brighter, more intense light than other LEDs.

[ice_it_06]

Fenix P3D CE CREE Premium Q5 LED Mini-Flashlight that has over (300) lumen's I believe. Crazy amount of light comes out f it.

Toss a few jigs in my hand and cup this light with my hand and its not but 10 seconds and the jigs scream with intense glow, and long.

Was in a tool box I bought @ a garage sale

Lindy's tazer led light, Works great for me.

[jigging-matt]

I use the little lindy tazer. Keep one on my lanyard around my neck with a clippers, and a depth finder. (great for clipping on friends lines when they are not looking.

I have used the Lure Lightning light that attaches to your MarCum or Vexilar on the side and runs off your battery from the flasher.

This light is awesome. One can mount it to the side of your flasher and hold the lure in front of the light and tap the switch to charge your lures. It really lights them up. Check it out here.

I have an old camera flash, also have the northland led, I prefer the flash, with new batteries in the flash it recycles very fast, hit it twice and they will last for 10 to 15 minutes.

I bought the gimmicky little LED that clips right on your rod. I think Genz makes it. It was at Walmart for $5. It's nice because the way it's mounted on the rod you can use it to see what's going on with your line, etc. in the dark in addition to using it to charge up your lure. I'd post a link to it but they don't seem to like that here unless it's something that they sell.

You guys all have good ideas...but a blacklight will brighten any glow jig to an insane amount of light. The ultraviolet light makes them super bright. Next time your wife wants to go to the mall, grab a few glow jigs and stop by spencers. You will see what I mean.

I haven't found one I want to bring out on the ice yet, but I am still looking. For now, I use the CJS tazer and it works okay. As soon as I find a blacklight that can take the abuse of portable fish-house jostles, I will buy it. I had one a long time ago, but it couldn't take the abuse and ended up breaking.

There is a UV penlight available. It's most likely in the fly fishing section of larger retailers. It's used to harden a UV sensitive knot-dressing compound and a wader repair compound used in fly fishing.

Do a google search on "Loon Outdoors UV Mini Lamp" and you should find it.

[polarsusd81]

Thanks for the tip Soda...I will look into it.

[Kilmo11]

i have a little thing like a lindy tazer but is made by HT and it was like 4 bucks and it works great, they have them at gander and fleet farm

[walleyematt]
