bojon Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 The only time I tried a shrimp color was to try to match the fresh water shrimp we have in our trout lakes.They are very light flesh colored.I don't know how this compares with what you want but I was able to match it pretty close using flesh colored powder.I checked my vile,and there is no markings on it,but I'm sure it was from the days of my wood carving of birds,and probably came from a woodcarving catalog.I use a lot of powders for my tube color formulas.They work great and I have a vast amount to play with.A bunch of small viles that have no lables but can be seen through the plastic.You may want to check online sellers of woodcarving supplies.

saint308 Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) The color I use for shrimp to catch trout and reds is clear palstic with med. & sm. silver and small gold. I then use a very small amount of small red flake. That is it. I will try to get a pic up tonight. Saint.

stratmanv Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 MF has a color called Crayfish. Poured it for the first time last night. When held up to light it is a light shade of pink..very shrimpy looking. You might try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kajan Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 You would need to know if your trying to match a white shrimp, or brown shrimp, sea bob, or I think on East coast der is a Pink shrimp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSC Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Get who ever wants this color to get you a sample. There are all shades out there being called shrimp from white to pink, green and etc. Do not know of any one extruder having the same shrimp color. Would like to see what you are needing.

saint308 Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Here is the one I made this afternoon. It has a little more gold than normal and I did not trim it. It should give you an idea of what I call shrimp. Saint. Tackleunderground Home - Luremakers Photo Gallery - Shrimp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
