Do glow in the dark lures help, hurt, or not matter? I'm interested to hear what everyone thinks?

I tried all sorts of combinations of glow in the dark, and honestly couldn't see any difference from an all black lure.

I've tried using Glow many times before and havent seen much of a difference.
I have even used a Q-Beam spotlight between casts and it didn't seem to matter.

Hmm, never tried it on Muskie lures. I wonder why it is so popular for Salmon trolling on the Great Lakes. I did see a Magnum (1 1/2 oz) Rat-l-trap at gander that was all glow.

I've had what appears to be good luck with Glow Bucktails (blade and/or grub tail) in windy daytime conditions.

I have a Glow 10" Jake that has produced at dusk... but never after dark.

Overall, glow patterns are not not one of my first choices but something I'll consider at times.

I like to use the glow in the dark eyes for a different. While working the glow eyes in low light situations like early morining or just before and after dark. Not to attract the fish but to allow yourself to see how the bait is moving in the water. It will allow you to see if the bait gets hit also by the eyes dissappearing. Just my thoughts.

Yes Mark that is why I wanted to use it. As long as it is not a deterent it would help to see your bait in the dark
