alsworms Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 For what you're looking for, I think MF colors are the way to go. MF Transparent Brown mixed with a touch of their Fluorescent Pink would be a nice match for the salmon eggs. As for the watermelon, MF's watermelon is about as transparent as it gets! Here's a link to their liquid colors..... http://www.pouryourownworms.com/Liquid-Plastic-Colors_c2.htm Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonestarbaitcompany Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 If you go to my site you can print a PDF with 184 recipes. You will need to experiment some to get the colors you want but that should be a good starting point. Good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJK Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Couple colors I made up today. The craws are actually based on the color of some crawfish I caught at the boat ramp last weekend. Hopefully the fish like the plastic version as much as the real thing! That craw is awesome looks similar to tomatoe but with a little brown 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rev. taz Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) Going through the color book, I see a lot of recipes that call for (x amt. Of drops) of color (2x)..... what is the 2x referring to? Is it double the amt of drops, or the color mfg? If it is the mfg, can I get some info? I know it may be a dumb question, but any help I can get, thanks in advance....-taz Edited January 15, 2014 by rev. taz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 X2 is Do-It soft plastics colorant and it's as described twice as powerful so thus less drops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
