glow jigs

Do you know of any brands that make steelhead jigs with glow bodies? The only ones I've found only have painted heads that glow.

I know that you can buy some jigs that have some sort of light crackle thingy in it.. Also you can buy thoose bead Jigs with glo beads and use a camera flash to charge them

there are over the counter glow jigs but theyre kinda crappy. all you need is the head to glow though. and they do make powder coat for jig heads that is glow. just bait/scent a jig with a glow head. since its dark theres no need to have a fancy body on a jig. just my 2 cents on that, but anyway
hit it or quit it.

Yeah, I use regular glow head jigs and glow scents. I just wanted to know if they made some glow in the dark marabou or hackle or something.

They make glowing grub bodies, and there is UV Krystal flash as well as UV spray you can use. UV is visible at depths that the human visible ranges of light are not and UV does not require 'charging'.
