A little more detail might not go amiss, mhup. |

Ok. Use a nice length of fiber-optic cable and a fly tied so that it's little fake leggs are lit by the main cable (which has a light on the other end by the reel). Good fiber shows no light along it's length, just at the end. |

Sounds at least moderately interesting, but would the trout go for it? I think some experimentation is called for. |
|

Last I heard Leslie Ash had some kind of chest infection. |

I've built digital camera / fiberoptic gadgets for dental use.....trust me, you should just get in the water with a wetsuit and a speargun. |

It's beautiful down there.... |

The author suggests that trout go for lighted baits. I'd need to see some evidence of this. |
|
|
As noted. Methinks they will either give it a complete miss or this will be the most significant thing to hit fishing since hooks. |

Apparently, some (deep sea) fish actually rely on this principle to attract prey. |

I've only heard this by word of mouth, but in most places fishing with lights at night is illegal |
|
|
Coming soon: the flashing neon sign lure "Sexy Trout Go-Go". |
|
|
I don't know about [most places].....It's legal for commercial use in many areas, and for public in others. Depends on the locale and the game population. |
|
|
Are you sure those are squid? |
|
|
Yeah, this would attract fish for sure, but it is illegal to
hunt with lights where I'm from (Canada). BUt then again
international waters are only, what 15 km out? |
|
|
Have lures with small LEDs been invented yet? ( Pardon my ignorance ) |
