I have a lot of crank baits that I can say the same thing about as well as a lot of other items in my fishing equipment that cost a lot more money than a bottle of this stuff! I have no intentions of using this stuff as ~~ I have not had a lot of trouble catching walleyes in the past, most of the problems I incur are caused by me and not the lures that I may be using, problems such as going to the wrong spot or fishing negative fish both of which are bad judgment on my part, if they come out with a spray for those symptoms that I exhibit from time to time then I am going to spring for a bottle of that stuff. I do have several friends that use this stuff and swear by it.
Don't forget that the favorite crank baits and other lures and lure enhancements in ones tackle box were also something new and different at the time of their release to the public for use, the public and not the research conducted by the manufacturer of the lure or other product are the true testers and researchers for the product in question and the fishing public will determine the success or failure of that lure or product.Last edited by wakina; 03-27-2013 at 12:41 PM.

well I gave the uv coating there chance to show me something. I just spent 2 weeks up on erie and tried the harnesses with the uv coating and didn't catch a fish on the 2 colors I had. I have to admit I didn't leave them on all day but gave them plenty of time to show if they were going to out preform my other harnesses. I gave each color about 4 hours at the same setting I was getting fish on other lures and never got a hit. I may try them again next year when we go up for our 2 week vacation. but its hard to put something on that didn't get fish when other colors were catching fish all around them.

Agree
Though I fish mainly the western basin the so called UV paint has produced very little for me either. From pulling cranks. spoons, and spinners they are
not the producers as thought to be and believe me I have tried them as well
as the live bait figured spoons with UV backs (2 seasons). Hell I just don't
know. Here the colors have been pink and charthruse have been the go to color
and yet the J7 's in blue could be the savior for the day. If the first mate ( a beagle ) sticks her muzzle in the box and gets caught I give it a try and she is only running a 55/45 percentage at best now.
