Its only designed for lures mate. Looks like a fluorescent dye to me, but as most fishing in the uk is done in less than 15ft of water I can't see it being much use.

Actually, it isn't designed specifically for lures and it could work in shallower turbid water (if it works at all, which I suspect it might).
Carp can see particularly well in the UV spectrum so it might help the single hookbait-type approach in a range of circumstances. You'll only know if you try it. Can't cost all that much.

And it's not a fluorescent dye. It's titanium oxide (what they use to reflect UV rays in sun screen creams) in a liquidised plastic-like fixant - good for at least two hours immersion in water. Principal is that it reflects UV.
