| Coming up the first week of July. Do you guys use a black light to help with bank location? I have buddies who stay away from black lights swearing the bass can see it. I have used one for 30 years and haven't notice any issue. Thoughts ??
A fluorescent strand or two in the braid would sure be nice for line visibility.
Finally - would like insight to your favorite night baits. The moon will be full when we visit (Lake Vermilion) if that makes a difference.
Thanks |

Location: beloit | I would probably throw a dbl 10 bucktail, I don't have any but the kramer bros baits look pretty sweet with the reflective blades.

There is a video on the home page from the Minnesota expo.

Location: Chisholm, MN | I just go totally dark. Your eyes will adjust. Just keep thinking that there is a fish on you bait at all times and it will happen. A glow bead can help with seeing your bait. Full moon should provide enough light for you to see the shoreline. Just keep your cowgirl moving slow and stay on good spots |

Location: Eagan, MN | I agree w/ Kirby, you can see just fine in the dark. I only turn on my headlamp when I catch a fish or need to deal w/ something inside the boat.
My two best night baits are jointed believers and marv's harry bugs, bucktails are my third choice. |

Location: Minnesota: where it's tough to be a sportsfan! | I can see where the cowgirls would be a bait of choice but my favorite night bait is a slow topwater, like a hawg wobbler. There is nothing like that sound- like someone just dropped a suburban on your bait out there in the darkness. |

Location: Chisholm, MN | Yeah other baits work well too. Try all those slow moving baits. |
