    Default UV baits


    Anybody here make jigheads or plastics with the UV reflective stuff in them, or on them?

    Or would I be better off to buy the UV dip or spray or markers?

    Most of the guys on here will make you uv baits. I don't really sell baits but I am sure someone will help you. Also you might want to tell what kind of baits your looking for.

    they are making many different materials anymore with UV and it a lot of the feathers that we have been buying have UV I haven't got into adding UV to my plastic but it definitely has good results from what I have been reading and from some of my good friends that use it I believe that this would be very good with glow-in-the-dark with adding UV with glow-in-the-dark.

    I have UV but don't use it. Use to but haven't noticed any more catch ratio than not using it. Was too much of a pain keeping up with what plastic I used UV in.

    i don't know if UV works or not, never tried it. But reading about makes me think it might. The deep lakes around here are going have less light down deep, they say that UV penetrates deeper than visible light.

    Also so have no idea if fish act appall see UV or not, if any do, it's probably the walleye. And walleye are in our lakes, but rarely targeted by anglers.

    I have found it works really good......DEEP.....I don't see much of a difference shallow.

    I use uv in all of my plastic. The benefits are apparent in deeper water as well as dirtier or heavily stained water. The spray can help but you'll be spraying a lot.I don't offer anything for sale anymore during winter months. I might again about June but will have o see what travel plans look like then.
