Marks Lures Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Here's mine. Sorry I don't use any of Bear's colors (in this recipe) but it should get you close. 8 oz. Plastic 3 tbs salt 38 drops MF Watermelon 1 drop LC Black 2 drops MF Brown 2 smidge .015 gold 2 smidge .015 black If you are not using salt. This would be real close to what I use, I never mix the exact mix two times in a row, just because I mix shoot and not exactly what I think it should be that day, but this is really close. Start with half of each color, then take a look at it. Add Watermelon if not what you are looking for, if you really do not like it throw them back into the mixing bowl. Smidge of .015 black The gold (in my opinion) would be specific to the lake you are fishing. Regards Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitbull Baits Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 They have a green top. If its in a fish tank like that picture you poseted it could just be stressed or the water could be crapy its in. Tank fish tend to sit on the bottom when the water is crappy and some turn whiteish.
