The fact that it recently has expanded into saltwater applications and is now more readily available is a great thing. I have stuck to my core business to establish that first. Glad to see it's existence here now and may eventually add as an offering once I have the time to work with it...You're the "pioneer", hopefully others will warm up to it's use and effectiveness that you have worked to convey.

Mike,
I really did not mean any of it to be directed at you. I know it can be taken that way..... but it was directed at the guys who gave me a hard time, and are now jumping on the wagon, and still not using UV the right way.

I had guys saying it does not work. Now, they are making their jigs with it. Problem is.... they are using glow & fluorescence and calling it UV. This was my reason for the original posts. Too many makers are making this mistake.

I never meant it to be directed at you. I sure as hell am not the "pioneer" of this stuff. I have only been trying to educate fishermen on the topic and what it is.... so they are not fooled or get a bad taste from UV that may not be actual UV when it does not work. Mostly for the imported products from overseas that are labeled wrong.

I did not pioneer this stuff.... I wish I did. And I am not attacking you either here.... the guys who came after me know who they are... and they are still using the term UV wrong. ( go figure) .
