sneak_e_pete Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 Hi there, I read on another post that it was recommended to use glowing jig heads while ice fishing for eyes. Maybe a dumb question, but how do they glow? Do you need to charge them with a light before they go down the hole? If so, how long do they remain "charged"? Thanks.
kemper Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 Probably a camera flash would be your best bet for charging them. Fire them up and sendem down the hole and see how long they last, Im sure different products have different times
GoneFishin Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 I just use a small key chain LED light for my glow lures.
bassjnkie Posted January 9, 2009 Report Posted January 9, 2009 I use a $4 camera flash I got from Ebay. Like Kemper said, glowing jig heads differ in glowing time.
Greencoachdog Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 Just about any light source will work, and as others have said glow times will vary. Don't be too eager to recharge the glow, sometimes the fish just want a faint glow, other times they want a bright glow. Experiment with them and let the fish tell you what they want. I haven't had much success with glow anything during complete darkness hours, but have had great results during early morning, later afternoon, on cloudy days, and in muddy water.
