DaveMc1 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 the hi lights won't show up as good on lighter colours, they pop very well on dark colours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsworms Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Never used the Do-It brand, but hi-lites are pretty much the same. I think you'll need to go lighter on the base color without overdoing the hi-lite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowFISH Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 I've only used blue highlights in black.... but I can tell you what I thought was a slight highlight in my basement/house looked completely different in the water... in my case - the blue sheen magnified... my guess is the sun light is far superior to any light I was using. Might wanna check outside and in the water when you get the chance. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinfool Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Are you sure what you're trying to match is a highlight and not a pearl color? Made that mistake once when I was first starting out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason I ask is because I am in PA and have sold thousands of baits in that color over the years and if they are mine I will give you the recipe.
