If there were lightning bugs popping off, I just might use the floatant. On the other hand, I might also throw a big popper instead (mice, that sort of thing). Both create attention - and I think when fishing, its perfectly fair play to create attention.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8754321616639572513.post-48265653794836957592013-08-29T15:44:39.010-04:002013-08-29T15:44:39.010-04:00The fish didn't seem to mind.The fish didn't seem to mind.Steve Zakurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14806203921155483420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8754321616639572513.post-41953043531774476172013-08-29T02:03:44.962-04:002013-08-29T02:03:44.962-04:00I'm for anything that can keep my fishing long...I'm for anything that can keep my fishing longer! I would worry about the light spookin the fish, but I'm sure there are ways around that. If we didnt move forward with technological advances of the sport, we would all be using cat gut leaders, non-fluorescent coloured lines, etc. Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14838543660071794119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8754321616639572513.post-13102765541355139072013-08-28T13:37:24.001-04:002013-08-28T13:37:24.001-04:00Yup, the right tool for the right job.

I mean there is so much other fly fishing (get the edge)tomfoolery out there that I don't think this item tips the scale. In fact, I see it as interesting and worth the time if you fish under the conditions you describe.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15787242134608887555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8754321616639572513.post-28285207575665980502013-08-26T13:15:56.883-04:002013-08-26T13:15:56.883-04:00In Chariots of Fire, Eric Liddell says, "My a...In Chariots of Fire, Eric Liddell says, "My arrogance, sir, extends just as far as my conscience demands." For purposes of this discussion, "arrogance" can easily by swapped out for "sense of fair play." So if it feels like cheating to you, it is. It may not be to others. Me? I'd be interested in trying it at some point just to see what it feels like. <br /><br />On the other hand, there's something deeply poetic about squinting your eyes in a desperate attempt to see that Light Cahill in the gloaming...was that a rise? I'll raise the rod tip....yes.
