Hoop netting question
So I'm getting setup for a hoop netting trip. I haven't done this before so I hear people talking about glow sticks? Are these installed down where the bait is attached to the net?

no the glow sticks are usually attached to your float/bouy up top, so you can more easily locate it and for other people to see.

Yes, to the float but you have to make you make sure the opposite side/bottom of the float is weighted down so that the light stick is always on top of the water column. Do a search and you'll find some pics.

Thanks guys. The reason I was confused is I saw a glow bait basket advertised and wondered. That's what happens when you think too much. Do any of you bother taking rods out with you? I was thinking they would just get in the way.

I just started this year too. Go to Jim's site http://www.sabaslayer.com/html/hooping-tips.html good checklist on what to bring. Also reflective marine tape works well with a spot light to find your traps if you place them out to far from one another.

This is my first year hooping as well. I'm looking to get a couple sets on giving it a shot. Looking forward to reading about your trips
