Glow/Moonlight baits

[Snypa]

Here's a 1/8 oz. DC-18 (glow-edition) originally wanted to make one for evening bassin, but after some coaxing from mikeymikey, I might try it off a pier I'll probably have to put on a couple splitshots, but the action should be nice on it:

took a pic of it in my bathroom, sry about the fuzziness & mirror reflection.

These two, still need some work, found another supplier that can ship that powerful light green super-glo paint, the orange half I'll probably clearcoat with some orange glow pigment:

1 oz. musky/pike bucktail for fishing under night-time moonlight conditions, been wanting to try this downtown & also down by Trenton at night, specifically under a bright moon (it should work best), casting it thru those prime weedtowers. Made it fully black so it silhouette with the moon's light, so the fish see it almost like someone swimming in the ocean and the pike is pike a shark watching from underneth.

a couple more (ignore the yellow one), the two on the right are both 2 oz. and are just over 9" inches long, both use large curved #7 colorado blades , the top-right has a hammered silver blade for daylight conditions while the bottom-right uses a polished black nickel blade for moonlight conditions.

That is just awesome!

Just time for you to catch something with it.


Now regarding those SuperGlowPaint... It look like a spray ? How well does it glow ?

It glows for hours, you're talking about the orange DC-18 glow bait right ? the orange part isn't super glow painted, just the blades on that bait, and I bought them prepainted superglow white/light-green, they're supposed to be able to glow for 3+ hours. I didn't paint them myself with any of the newer pigments, I just sprayed the head w/ flo. orange using Vinyl Component System spray paint, and then I top-coated it with their clear coat. In the 2nd pic, the bait on the right-side, I may try painting the orange part with a mix of that clearcoat and the orange super glow pigment (powder) that I had ordered. The 3" rattle shad, I may try painting it half with the super glow green pigment/clearcoat and the other half with that light green super-glo vinyl paint (that I need to get) I'll probably order it tommorow, need some parts for another order anyways.
