Keith,

The new blue glow is supposed to last longer per flashing charge than the regular greenish glow that is available in most corkies or spin-n-glows.

As far as vortexe's go, I use a bell when fishing (sleeping) at night. Of course I'm usually anchored.

Sorry to hear about ol' blackie. I hope you're using steel leader and 40lb. test while using that lucky k-15 w/all the teeth marks in it. I'd hate to get an invite to that plug's funeral confused

Aaron
