Hi lonehunter
Very nicely written. Kinda short for a book though! ha ha As you know, the guys fishing albacore and deepwater jigging for yellowtail and White Sea Bass have begun using the glow-in-the-depths fluorecent and light retaining finishes on their favorite jigs. Pretty easily done with a jig finish specially done and a flashlight to charge it when needed.
Lots of productive fishing is done at the morning gray so I don't think light penetration for color differenciation is a factor, especially after the 50 or 60 foot mark. At least that's how the guys in San Diego have been talking up the light retaining lures.
