Re: Making Fiber Optic Eyes
The fibers actually transfer light kinda like a wire with electricity. If light hits one side, it is transfered to the other side and vice versa. So, if light reaches the eyes under water, they will give the apperance of "glowing". But, if there is no light, there is no glowing. In reality, the clearer the water, the better effects you get. Problem is, it would be more effective in stained water, where the light does not reach the lure, thus no glow. Kinda redundant isn't it. The optics make for a cool looking lure but IMHO, they're not nearly as good at catching fish as they are at catching "FISHERMAN". lol.... Not to say they don't have an advantage underwater, to me it seems to be a "selling" point rather than a "catching " point. hope this helps.
