Picked up 5 unopened bags of Atlas-Mikes Glow Yarn for a buck ( 5 Different colors), Says UV Enhanced on bags. Has anyone used it to tie crappie jigs?? Don't want to spend a lot of time making any if someone else has tried it already and it don't work. Snow was all gone on Sunday(70 degrees), lakes even all opened up on Sunday . Yesterday being Wed 8 inches of snow and 30 mph winds and 20 degrees. Today woke up to more heavy snow and 50 to 60mph winds, can't even see across the street!! Good day to tie jigs!!

Jigman, Rochester is suppose to be getting it worse!! Did that Enhanced jig work??

I would suggest you charge them up to see how well they glow and I suspect they don't glow very bright and mayne not even very long? I don't know since I don't have that product, but I am positive they are no where near the Glow Jigs I make! Mine when really charged up are too bright to take a picture for a few seconds so I have to wait just a little to take a picture. Here is one from the other day!

1/32 Oz and the heads do also glow, but the body is so bright it just overpowers the head, lol!

They are brite. Tried charging as you suggested, NO Glow, so maybe it wasn't a good deal! Thank You

Your welcome! I just remember seeing some before and was not impressed so thought you should know that most likely it was not very good.
