Default pitcher shootin' help

I'm working on some glow-in-the-dark lures. I need to take a pic of the lure in the dark to see the colors, but, ain't had no luck. Is this even possible? I have a throw away camera...a Canon Power Shot A 2000 IS.

I hate takin' pitchers.

Maybe place the lure in a dark box and take the pic from outside away from the box. Not sure but may be worth a shot(in the dark)

dark room with the bait glowing...with no flash on the camera has produced poor results?

That's kinda the way most of mine looked. They glow pretty good but don't show up in the pic. Mine is on hard plastic baits but I don't know why that would matter.

Try using a tripod to steady the camera and slow the shutter speed way down.

This^

in low light your cameras shutter speed is really slow in order to gather all the available light it can. You need a tripod and if you have access to one, a shutter release is ideal to eliminate any movment from when you press the button
