mradamh Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Seems simple enough right? M-F Orange Pumpkin out of the bottle looked to be the ticket. Though after over a month of trial & error, I'm not even close. I've tried adding a touch of Del's red with it, no dice. Took out the red and used a touch of M-F Maroon, no dice. Does anyone have a match for this stick bait, I'd be extremely grateful. Thank you in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhorlings Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 What color flake are you using? I had to use Lime in mine to get it close enough for a customer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Probably a dumb question, but have you tried just LC pumpkin? Looks like that would be a perfect fit. Light on the pumpkin though........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsmblack Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Try Lure Crafts RootBeer, with a couple drops of Red. Maybe around 8 dr of Root Beer and 2-4 dr of red. in 4 oz of plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mradamh Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Thanks for the tips fellas...I have not tried just straight pumpkin, but will. I will also take the Rootbeer route and give that a shot. I don't have the lime flake, but will order it. I knew it was lime, but was working with the .015 green I have figuring it wouldn't throw the color off so much. But it sure does throw that color out of whack that's for sure. If anyone has this one matched, please holler back. I'll be trying the suggestions in the evening tomorrow. Thanks again fellas, my fingers are crossed.

BBC Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I believe there is a previous post with this. I know I had to use rootbeer to get the color right. I think I used a mixture of Del's and LC's rootbeer, but I'm not positive. I will look when I get home if I remember. Also, I had to use flake from senkosam to get it right. All the other green flake that I've tried will fade to teal when heated. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I read that Del's amber should get you pretty close if not dead on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumzlures Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 (edited) LOL! Somebody ask me that color 2 days ago. yamamoto 196 Took me 45 minutes to get the same color. 1/2 cup of plastisol 5 drops of lurecraft oxblood 2 drops of lurecraft orange and just add small green flakes and medium black flakes be careful, to much green flake and the plastic will turn brown Edited August 20, 2009 by Dumzlures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
