LED lit lures, are they illegal?

It is not illegal to use them as long as the light is part of the lure.

 

Quote from the regulations state...

 

"It is illegal to: Use artificial lights to attract fish except;

 

1. To fish for smelt, or to fish for lake whitefish or lake herring with a dip net.

 

2. If the light is part of a lure attached to a line used in angling."

To be clearer. I envision the LED with a small battery and water-sensitive switch to be integral part of the lure; epoxied on the inside, or on the side. I don't really see this any different than the glow in the dark spoons lots of people use for salmon these days.

 

Also, does anyone know if they work any better than regular lures?
