A weird night fishing the river

[Mr Ed]

Thats the stuff Justin. We get a lot of it on the atlantic coast, exactly as Lee describes.

Last time I was trolling for Bass in the straits the lure was sparkling like a firework.

I've seen it while paddling in the sea in the dark at beach parties. they react to the motion of your feet only lighting up for a small time then disappearing. Anyone see any glo bugs recently? why is it when you get near them they switch off?

[HARPO]

first experienced it in norway 4 years ago, think they call it moeriel or something similar (spelling undoubtedly wrong)

2 years ago in august on east lothian coast was just the same if not thicker. swimming in it is amazing, more you disturb the water brighter it sparkles! crazy n beautifull to see!

as for gloworms, only seen them in norway too, so bright! didnt turn off when got near tho...

what a great thread, i wanna take up fishin again, ah summer nights with a line in the loch... know how im relaxing nxt wkend!

Eactly what the old Aussie fisherman told me, and they didn't bite that night either
