Abstract
A fishing rod illumination system for fishing lures that utilize fiber-optics to attract fish. The fishing rod illumination system includes a fishing reel, a light source within the fishing reel, a control pad in communication with the light source to control the light source, and a length of fiber optic fishing line connected to the fishing reel. The light source and control pad may also be encased within an auxiliary casing separate than the fishing reel, wherein the light source is directed via a supply cord toward the fiber optic fishing line while in use.
