When I first saw the glow strips I thought it would be a great idea to stage them on the net for night fishing. I finally got a pack from the Hammond fishing show today at Mike Hulberts booth. I think this will work well since the adhesive is 3m they should hold up pretty well. I used 17 strips about a 1/4" thick to do the net.

Thats a pretty sweet idea. I think I might have to do that.

I got a couple of packages. I left them laying on the floor, and I was surprised at how bright they were when I turned the lights off.

Very cool, Rob! There are a ton of ways to use the Glowin' Outdoors products, and with the 3M adhesive they should stay on your net perfectly! The adhesive should actually strengthen over time, so it should adhere even better by the time you get to use it for a muskie! Thanks again for sharing the picture!

these strips are easy cut out. another great idea for the glow strips is to put a small piece on each of your release tools, to make them easy to find in the dark, once the fish is in the bag.

You can put some around your { JOHNSON } so on the nights that it is very cold and you wonder if he is outside of your bibs, all you have to do is to look for the ring of glow, to see if it is ok for #1

I think that is the why there are safety warnings on packaging.........

Be careful with the 3M adhesive!

The big advantage for me with the glow strips is that I have a 14' Lund and night fishing for muskie has been a pain. With no floor space for the net, tripping over it is very common. Now I'm looking forward to doing more night time muskie fishing and less cursing at the net
