Delw Posted July 21, 2003 Report Share Posted July 21, 2003 ALso dont forget when adding salt(which is white) you need to add more color... I got the blue fleck down perfect for the senkos but now I cant find the recipe, I will dig it up... The other day I was playing around and slipped and came out with an Identicle junebug color for just worms with out salt... 40 drops of black grape and 55-60 drops of red(lure craft colors shaken very well ) in 1.5 cups of m-f plastic Delw 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercury Posted July 22, 2003 Report Share Posted July 22, 2003 Yes, but some of us have colors that we wouldnt part with. But we do have some affects that we think look cool. 6 oz of 536, 10 drops of motor oil, add medium black flakes, and fine red and fine blue flakes.

Mercury Posted July 22, 2003 Report Share Posted July 22, 2003 Well a safe bet would be bubblegum, 6 oz plastic, 5 drops red, 10 white, and mix well. Turn this into cotton candy by adding red and blue glitter. ..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redg8r Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Heres the ones submitted from the users at redg8r.com: date : 26/11/2002 Color : aarons magic By : chirmy Plastic : litlle bit Mix : add 4 drops of green and 6 drops of blue pearl to about 3 ounces of plastic Notes : Not exactly but a close look alike date : 26/11/2002 Color : Bluegill By : B & D Lures 1 Plastic : 1-2 ounces of plastic Mix : black color-add 1 drop of color to plastic until you get a light to medium shade of smoke. .035 black glitter .035 gold glitter .035 blue glitter put the same amount of black and blue glitter in the plastic. put only a very light amount of gold glitter in the plastic. Mix everything real well, by stiring. Once you are satisfied with the mixing, begin pouring into your mold(s). Mix again after 2 pours. date : 27/11/2002 Color : Zoom Plastic recycle By : Larryinmarietta Plastic : 1/2 cup of old zoom worms Mix : For more heavy baits add more salt when worms are completely melted. Notes : This is for micowave oven directions: first add about 1/8 cup of un-cooked fresh liquid plastic to a corningware cup. Then add plastic worms parts, cut up into 1 inch parts. Set micowave to low/med power and set timer for 1 min. You will have to adjust the time and setting for your microwave. I use an old unit in the garage for this activity. Spray the molds with worm oil/jacks juice/cooking oil pam to make getting the new worms out of the mold. Cook the plastic till the new plastic is ready and the old worms are all melted. Add additional salt and glitter if needed and pour. date : 28/11/2002 Color : smoke with flake By : megabass/ Ken Plastic : per ounce Mix : sure this is an easy one but years ago I had to learn by trial and error so this should help someone just starting to pour worms. add one drop of black per ounce of plastic for light "clear" smoke and two drops of black per ounce of plastic for a "medium " smoke color . Add silver and black flake to imitate baitfish ,Red to imitate crawfish or another good crawfish imitator is made by adding red,green,black,and copper (or orange)flake to smoke colored baits. This is essentially the Yamamoto grub color #180 Notes : always use an exhaust fan and avoid breathing the fumes from hot plastic when melting /pouring. I normally use a microwave and cover the pyrex cup with saran wrap to contain the fumes . date : 28/11/2002 Color : junebug By : megabass/Ken Plastic : per ounce of plastic Mix : add three drops of "indigo" (black grape) per ounce of plastic . when plastic is hot stir in green glitter until you get the desired effect. date : 28/11/2002 Color : Cotton Candy By : basskat Plastic : 4 ozs. Mix : 1 drop pumpkin, 1 drop red, green, red, black, & blue glitter. Add scent and/or salt just before pouring. Notes : You may have to adjust the colors some depending on your preferences. date : 05/12/2002 Color : Bubblegum By : JGK Plastic : 1/2 cup @ 4 oz. Mix : 5-6 drops Florescent Pink 2 drops white Notes : The florescent pink must be added before you heat the plastic. Stir and put on heat. The plastic will become darker as it becomes heated. When ready, add white and stir. Pour. date : 24/12/2002 Color : Junebug By : B & D Lures 1 Plastic : 1 ounce Mix : 1 ounce of liquid plastic add purple color until you reach a medium to medium heavy shade. Mix thoroughly. just before you pour, add green glitter( enough to your able to see the green shade). Do not put too much glitter. You will lose the strength of your plastic. Insure that you mix the plastic each time you pour. date : 10/03/2003 Color : watermelonseed- non bleeding By : Wonderboy Plastic : 5 gallons Mix : 6.8 grams school bus yellow. 4 grams black. .3 (or 1/4 cup) small black glitter. .3 (or 1/4 cup) large black glitter. Notes : add dye and glitter before cooking. You may need to add cab-o-sil , a few cups, to keep the glitter from falling. Mix WELL ! If you are using a microwave, add salt after it is cooked. date : 17/07/2003 Color : Plum By : alsworms Plastic : 4 ounces Mix : 6 drops Black Grape 5 drops Strawberry I like blue flake mixed in also. date : 17/07/2003 Color : Mustard Seed By : alsworms Plastic : 4 ounces Mix : 6 drops MF Transparent Yellow 4 drops Lure Craft Amber Brown 3 drops White black flake green hi-lite (optional) date : 22/07/2003 Color : Watermelon Candy By : alsworms Plastic : 4 ounces Mix : 4 drops MF Watermelon Brown Lots of small & medium purple flake touch of medium red flake touch of medium black flake touch of medium blue flake touch of large green flake Notes : I have seen many variations of watermelon candy, but this one works best for me.

Delw Posted August 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2003 berkley Camo is one of the hardest colors to make. (at least for me) Ive been playing a little, its close but no cigar yet 1 cup plastic 4 drops of moss green 3 drops of watermelon 2 drops oxblood now the key I found to give it the brownish effect was the brown Fleck and the gold fleck added into it. I only had .035 and it should be fine fleck Like I said close but not right yet Delw 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delw Posted August 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2003 We melted that stuff all down and started from scratch. here one thats is better I think with green fleck it would make it. this one is Floresant yellow and pumpkin with black flake. all ready had the colors made and remelted together(daughters idea) I think if green fleck was used it would bring the greens out Its weird you can have one color but change the fleck and get different colors. I just downsized the pics so the screen wouldnt scroll Delw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsworms Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 BLUEGILL 4 ounces Plastic 1 Drop Black (smoke) Just a touch (or desired amount) of the following glitter: small blue, medium black and gold, large green. Use less large green than the other flakes. Another version: Same as above, but drop the blue flake and pour a light blue vein instead.

alsworms Posted February 17, 2004 Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 Most A's Magic are triple pours.............. Watermelon top (1 drop watermelon per ounce of plastic) Blue Neon vein (per ounce of plastic: 1 drop blue, 1 drop black, touch of blue hi-lite) Brown belly (2 drops per ounce). Add some red flake in the watermelon for an added effect. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Nope - the flake is optional. You may have heard of "Aaron's Magic Red". That's just red flake in the watermelon. Gives the worm a little more of a crawdad look. Another option: just add blue hi-lite in the watermelon, then pour your brown. Doesn't look as good as the triple pour, but it's just as effective.

BigZ Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 Hey guys, I thought I would share a couple of my goto colors with you since I am a newbie. This bait color is a transaprent metallic green pumpkin. Great for reapers! 8 oz Lurecraft 5366 drops LC Pumpkin3 drops LC Watermelon3 drops LC AmberA SMALL quantity of LC metallic silver powder (about the size of a match head?)I like this bait seasoned with either Large Back Flake or LC Holo String Glitter...or both. The fish like it too!"Berzerk Berry".... 8 oz Plastic ( I think I used 3G last time with good results...shocking!) 6 drops MF White Pearlescent5 drops LC Black Grape4 drops MF Purple2 Drops LC RedAdd the pearl before heating...Mix Colors in thoroughly. I like green and blue flake in this one...The color looks crazy in the water, it works well when the sun is up. I like to add about 5-6 drops of LC Garlic Oil and some Procure Shad to the bag and salt em up so they don't stick! Good Luck in the PreSpawn!
