Now those are great Ship!

You are going to find a whole new world of fishing out there with those. There are times when the glow won't matter at all or might even be something you want to not use on a particular day, but in the long haul glow baits are a huge plus for you. Looks as though you have the glow mastered!

Now I have to find the UV charging light.

Nice looking lures.

The blue and red glow work well during low light conditions here in MN.
A UV led light or camera flash light them up well. If you are considering a camera flash I have a simple flash catcher that is very effective and simple to make.

There are many commercially made stand alone camera flash made, also one company makes a flash designed to light up glow jigs.
I use a disposable camera which I have modified for a flash source.( a different subject)

The flash catcher is a large pill container that is lined with metalized tape. The jig is suspended in the pill container and the flash is held over the open end. When the flash goes off the light is reflected off of the metal tape and 360 degree of the glow jig is lighted up in one shot. The container also helps contain the flash which can be annoying to your eyes or your fishing partner eyes.

Ship...Run out to Wallyworld and get a cheap flash attachment for a camera. Run some duct tape across the contacts of the shoe and load the batteries. Turn it on and when the red light shows just push the red trigger to the side to "shoot" it.

You can make a light jar using aluminum foil too....shiney side in.

Very Nice!!!!!!!!!
