Little man baits Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Have any of you guys ever made or tried to make this color and suggestions would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dutchman Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 This is a two pour. The bottom is brown and the top is watermelon. Sometimes flake is added to one or both colors. i.e. red in the brown and black in the watermelon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dutchman Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 SHK You can put a blue pour in it as Roboworm does. However it is tricky and time consuming. If you are using a Microwave you need three cups - one brown, one watermelon and one blue. The blue is not a large amount as you can see. These are usually made in an open pour mold. As you can see in your pic, there is sone fine (008) flake in it. Roboworm uses machines to do their baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHK Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 The question was regarding pouring aarons magic. Seeing as this is a 3 colour bait I think it is best to get this gentleman off on the right foot. It is a more difficult bait to pour correctly and will require plenty of practice but it is 100% more than possible. Just because robo uses a machine to pour the open mold many here have proven that all it takes is a little practice. Once you get comfortable with 2 colours 3 isn't all that hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Prager Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 1 drop of black and some blue highlight powder should take care of the blue vein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basscandy92040 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 3 Lee pots for me to do 3 color pours and lots of practice..... As far as the color suggestions made so far, I agree.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Aaron's mother Carol spoke to our club a few years ago, and said Aaron is color blind, so what he looks for is contrast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chachybaby Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 theres smoke comin outta my ears... mind blowin. Arguably one of the best, if not, best drop-shot fishermen in the world. Simple as that, difference in color contrast between light and dark. here i am matching baits to the exact "T" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) If I remember right, he can see some colors, but only a few. I bet if you google Arron Martens, and also color blind, you could find out a lot more. Edited January 24, 2012 by mark poulson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chachybaby Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 hehe, ya sometimes I feel I'm making these baits to appeal more to myself than to the fish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallmouthaholic Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 I'd buy the worm from Roboworm before i wasted time and equipment trying to replicate it. Two-color injection has enough caveats but 3 Lee,hand pour, plastic scorching pots-no way! Much cheaper and a lot less aggrevating to buy this specialty worm- if I even wanted it.

Richard Prager Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 I would use 3 1-cup size Anchor brand cups. All 3 will easily fit in a microwave.They are smaller in size than the Pyrex and have narrower spouts. Only fill the cups 1/4 way. It is just a matter of timing and a little practice. What works best is an open pour rtv mold because it retains the heat or an aluminum mold sitting on a griddle turned on to warm. Believe me if I can do it anybody can. You will also get a heck of allot more satisfaction than filling up an injector and shooting it into a mold. A caveman can do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes ,we all thrive on personal satisfaction but turning a profit is foremost in business- if you wish to stay in business. Now lets see- what do 5 bags of Aaron's magic plastic worms cost ?? I don't need a CPA certification to figure which side of risk/reward i want to be on. Edited January 25, 2012 by smallmouthaholic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need a CPA certification to figure which side of risk/reward i want to be on. All that was asked was how to make the color Aarons Magic. I've used Pyperx/Anchor cups without incident since the 80's. Even with the introduction of hand injection, the hand pour method method using the microwave and Pyrex/Anchor brand is still widely used. Not everybody plays with soft plastics for it's big profits. Some still enjoy it for it's art form. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 The NorPro silicone cup eliminates all the dangers of Pyrex, and keeps plastic hot a lot longer, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallmouthaholic Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 The NorPro silicone cup eliminates all the dangers of Pyrex, and keeps plastic hot a lot longer, too. I have the silicone cups but never fill them over half way due to their extreme flexibility. I use these 95% of the time- http://www.containerstore.com/shop/kitchen/foodPrep/measuring?productId=10000652 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
