alsworms Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Woooo.......tough one Richard. From the pic, it looks lime MF Amber Green with blue hi-lite and a touch of silver and black flake. The bottom is pearl or straight white. Almost looks kinda swirled though?? If blue is the dominant color, you might try MF Blue Smoke Pearl with a touch of green hi-lite. Interested to see how it turns out for ya. Let us know. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Prager Posted June 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 Boy, you're good Chris! Thanks. I'm gonna try that Smoke Blue Pearl with the green highlight. It does look like a swirl, so I bet every bait is a little different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Prager Posted June 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 (edited) Dead-on, Chris! I used M-F Smoke Blue Pearl w/green highlight powder, a little small black and silver flake and M-F liquid Pearlescent. Thanks a bunch. I'm glad I had the liquid Pearl. Believe it or not I have never used that or white pearl powder. When using the powder, do you add white colorant to it?

nova Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 If you want a neat effect try putting a little fine silver holi flake with the pearl white only(no color). It really shimmers in the water. Good call on the colors Chris. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
