CaineM Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Hi all Just wondering where you go for your red glow sticks. Managed to pick some up online but in very short supply. Also what size do people use for hairtail? 50mm, 75mm? Have found the red doesn't emit a huge amount of light compared to the regular yellow/lime lumo sticks.

kurtisjohnthomas Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I tried to get some from my local tackle shop for hairtail but no deal. i read on one of the forums that red glowsticks are alot more effective than fluro. Good luck and let us know how you go. be careful with the conditions though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tasksta Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Hi guys I'm heading out to cowan tomorrow to chase the hairies. Also had no luck sourcing red glow sticks, but got several green/yellow ones. Can you let me know if you get some locally? cheers Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Caine Caine go to the two dollar stores , The warehouse store etc and look through the party sections. Glo sticks of all colours are there and should atleast give you something different to try. Definately red , blue ,green multi colour.I use them offshore and work a treat Goodluck CHRIS.

CaineM Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 Ended up buying a boatload direct from China. Might see if I can sell some off at some stage but hopefully (if/when they arrive) I'll have no shortage from now on. Cheers all Caine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaineM Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 Sams Warehouse or GoLo $1 each 6inch, They have yellow red green blue. Benny. My order from China arrived yesterday ... managed to get heaps (3000 packs) in the 50mm size. A lot brighter than the smaller 39mm I've used in the past. Managed to boat a few hairtail on the weekend so will need to go down again soon to test them out. Caine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
