cintaskevin Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Hi guys, to start off, I've been pouring for awhile but recently decided to make my own Senko's. I am pouring Basstackle's 4 inch and 5 inch 2 part molds. I am using Lurecraft super soft and I am using 1/4 cup softener, and 1/2 cup salt per 1 cup of plastic. As for the salt, I am using regular table salt which is probably a no no. When I use the regular salt, the salt tends to sink very fast regardless of how often I stir. So I have started to flour my salt using a blender. This definitely makes the salt suspend better but really makes the color cloudy. I have made several batches and have yet to make a color that I'm happy with. Colorwise, how do you guys deal with overcoming the milky factor the salt gives the bait? I'm wondering how you guys are doing it. Even a simple color like Yamamoto watermelon is giving me issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Lost Senko pourer in CA!

nova Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 I don't know what he sent in the PM but all I do is increase the amount of color by a few drops. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cintaskevin Posted April 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 (edited) Guys, the PM told me to use smaller granule salt. Fin lives near me so he told me what store to look for the salt. What kind of salt do you all use in your Senko's? Edited April 17, 2011 by cintaskevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
