    Default Lighted floats


    Anyone know of any lighted floats sized for crappie that don't use either mini glow sticks or those lithium batteries that have the LED on the end? Maybe something that uses a normal watch battery or something?

    Those LED things run like $4 each. Gets kinda spendy after awhile, especially when you forget to turn them off and let them run dead in the tackle box. :o
    Don't worry, catch crappie.

    There were some glow in the dark Thill floats at one time -- not sure if they still make them, though. Check the Lindy site.

    I always use the little glow sticks.

    I think this one will do it for you... I haven't used them, but I hear they're good...and they're not as pricey as some of the others...

    The last time I tried I used two part epoxy mix from Jann's with their glow in the dark powder mixed in, and it gives a good glow but recharging in the boat not sure of.

    If you need to recharge the lights take an old camera or new one and hit it a couple of times with the flash. I do it for ice jigs that glow all the time.
