I like the use of very fine holographic glitter, I think it looks like glistening scales and adds a depth to the plug. When I use them I coat the entire surface. Large glitter looks too gloppy to me.

I fish them with and without. As for if one works better than the other...I think my results are inconclusive at this point. But I think they look cool when done right.

I took a few photos but holographic glitter does not photograph very well on a cheapo pocket camera, they look better in real life.
