Catfishing after dark gets harder when several baits are soaking and every rod in the spread needs attention. The Trophy Cat Tackle White Lightning 7'6" Casting Catfish Rod gives bank and boat anglers a purpose-built catfish rod with a glow-in-the-dark, UV-reactive finish that makes the setup easier to monitor when the sun goes down.

White Lightning makes the most sense when catfishing runs past sunset. Charge the glow-in-the-dark finish before fishing after dark, or use a UV light for increased visibility as the night goes on. When several baits are soaking from the bank or multiple rods are set from the boat, the bright blank gives you a more visible reference for watching the spread while waiting for a rod to load.
Put White Lightning in the rotation when your catfishing regularly stretches past sunset and keeping track of the rods in your spread matters as much as having a rod built for the fight.
Both. The White Lightning Casting Rod is built for catfish anglers fishing from the bank or a boat.
It is designed for targeting blue catfish, flathead catfish, and channel catfish.
Charge the glow-in-the-dark finish before fishing after dark. The rod is also UV-reactive, so a UV or black light can be used for increased visibility at night.
This is the casting version of the White Lightning and should be paired with an appropriate casting reel rather than a spinning reel.
