Eagle Claw Glow Ice Jig Kit

[shipahoy41]

Question: Have any of you used this kit? If so what is your opinion of it? Just trying to do my homework before committing to purchasing one. Thanks.

Mike, I have never used that particular kit, but similar gear. Each one of those jigs catch fish, the jig eye cleaner is great, and the light will charge those jigs up quickly so they will glow. I'd do a search to make sure the price is reasonable. Good luck.

Thank you. I was caught by the glow in the dark aspect. Eagle Claw swore by it. Just wondered if any one used this or something similar. I guess I'll get one kit and try it on a drop shot rig. Thank you so much for everyone's input.

Ship .... I use glow in the dark baits ice fishing with great results. So much that I use them in the summer now also. My favorite are Maynard's Tackle Fatso Grubs. These are made of tungsten. I like the 4 mm. size with a #10 hook. They have a nice variety of baits on their website. The jigeye cleaning tool helps tremendously if it is painted over. Same as for the glow charger. Of course similar things work just as well. I use these jigs dead sticking and under a bobber. The best thing I like about them is their "glow". Once charged, they become like little Christmas lights in the dark. One other thing... I like to apply a coat of clear nail polish to the jigs and let them dry before using. It toughens the finish and makes it last longer. As for the kit you're looking at, I believe it's great deal for the price. P. S. I do tip my jigs with bait or plastic.

Thank you. Did the clear nail polish have an effect on the glow? Years ago I made glow in the dark soft plastic lures but I have never had glow jigheads.

Ship .... no the nail polish does not effect the glow. Pretty sure you could make your own GITD jigs. There is GITD nail polish but I haven't bought any yet but have looked into it along with unpainted tungsten jigs.

Actually I have some glow in the dark nail polish for this I bought couple of years back from Claire’s. They’ve changed the packaging since then though.
