Catch a bunch of fireflys and pinch off their tails as you need them.
It will glow. Then put it on an adams. Or would this be considered
bait fishing?

Use the ol reliable and forgotten about Jassid pattern. That will work.

Probably the most famous firefly pattern is the Harrison Steeves version
- he is big into foam terrestrials.

If you go to your nearby fabric store you may find some glow-in-the-dark
cross stitch thread, in several different colors. (green, yellow, blue,
pink...) Use it to tie an underbody on the back half of your favorite
long-bodied beetle pattern. I use foam, myself. Charge with a flashlight
before casting.

You can buy special tiny glowing inserts for flies known as "lazer
lights"

Use fibreoptic line and fly comprising fire optic as well.

Now there's a thought :-)
