Saltfisher Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Anyone have a recipe to match Bass Pro Shops 'Red Bug' color. A guy I know wants a bunch, and says they dont make the color anymore. Looks like junebug, but more red color with small and large green flake. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Looks like a slightly lighter plum color to me. If so, a really good one is 4 parts strawberry red with 1 part black grape (both LC colors) and green flake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltfisher Posted March 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 That's really close. Just did 4oz plastic and added strawberry 12 drops, and black grape 3 drops and it's close, but needs to be atas darker, and more purple. Stupid auto correct. "A little" darker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Maybe just a drop or 2 more of the black grape then? Hmmmmm...........I don't believe I ever used any purple. Seems to me the grape worked well enough........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolinamike Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Why not buy red bug from lure works,no mixing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltfisher Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I dont know how close that will be since everyones redbug colors are slightly different. Probably have to mix either way. This person im making them for wants a exact match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
