UV and UV Glow are very important for 95% of the fish we catch. Im not saying that you will not catch a fish on a non UV jig... Im saying you will catch 10X more with a UV jig.
Below is an example. Left to right: We have normal glow type head - super glow head - UV Glow head.
FISH SEE UV..... and UV Glow is the most effective way to catch them in depths up to 650 feet.

according to the scientists as Berkley , there are actually very few fish that have the receptors to see UV.
They said that Trout, Salmon and some minnows can def see it ( UV spread from trout fishing as im sure you know)
But they claimed that salt water fish do not have the ability to see it.And that if they did they would add it to their products
But as with anything I am still going to try it fluking this summer and make my own decision as maybe the fish are seeing something different than the actual UV glow making the bait easier to see.
