    They work good for me. Mid south or Bobby Garland's tubes and depending on water clarity and what the sky is like. Most of the time Mid South ghost glow is good or anything with chartreus tail.

    Midsouth for me! Black/Chart, Yellow/Chart, Ghost.
    Give a man a fish and feed him for a day.
    Teach a man to fish and he'll sit in a boat and drink beer all day!

    Capps and Coleman glow tubes by southern pro. Lots of different colors. I like smoke glow and lime chartreuse glow. Usually put them on a road runner head or a 3/32 oz teaser jig head by southern pro.

    I hate to ask this question for fear of sounding dumb, but what is the difference between a regular tube and a glow tube? I've been looking at pictures of them on the Grizzly Jig website and the Midsouth website and really can't tell a difference.

    Thanks in advance.

    The glow tubes glow in the dark. Most of the time I prefer the glow! Midsouth has really nice glow.

    On the Midsouth glows, the glow will have a "milky" looking color to it. If you look up close between a standard chart. and a glow chart. you'll be able to see a slight difference. They work very well!!
