I have used them with limited success for walleye, and I know a few
folks who swear by them for lake trout. But I have never (that's never
as in NEVER) caught a bass on a glow-in-the-dark bait.

Ditto Rich,
Used them enough to have a clue, still waiting on the first bite.

Thanks guys.
I got a bag of that color, with a larger order, just to try them out.
Probably I will stick with using them for Spotted Bay Bass and stay with
my tried and true baits for LMB.
Thanks for the advice!

I have caught steelhead, walleye, crappie, catfish, and smallmouth. Have
yet to catch a LM on a glow in the dark bait, but I really haven't made
an effort to put one in front of a LM either.

I use a 4" glowing swim-bait in the murky Hackensack River when I fish for
stripers, they work great. Never got a bass on one though.
