Shane D Posted May 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I do too. I was hoping for a true florescent chartuese. I have some of Del's older stuff and lure craft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 I have spike its in both colors and together they are miles apart. The chartreuse has more of a green cast to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane D Posted May 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Well thanks for the replies. Sounds like we wont be getting a true chartruese flake then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSC Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 I think you will find that there are many "Shades" of Chartreuse. Made by basically mixing Green & Yellow . You can come out with a "Green Chartreuse" or "Yellow Chartreuse" and various "Shades" in between. What is "True Chartreuse" is in the eyes of the beholder ... I personally want it on the Green Side .. Matter of choice.. Have at it ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Shane, What any flake looks like is affected by the color of the plastic it's added to. The colored plastic is like a color filter on a camera lens, changing the color of what you see. I'm still using some ten year old DelMar chartreuse flake, and it looks chartreuse when I use it in clear, or chartreuse plastic, but more gold in other colored plastic. I think you will find you need to make some samples of the different colored plastics you plan to use with that flake, so see how it is affected.

Shane D Posted May 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) I was looking at some Keitech colors and they have a flat bright chartreuse flake in some patterns. Is not gold looking at all. Edited May 26, 2015 by Shane D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish you would have said that in the beginning. The color you are probably wanting is a yellow chart. Don't know where to get that one. And that one the color of plastic is not affecting the color as it is white pearl. I believe it's the sexy shad you are looking at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane D Posted May 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 That's it. Sorry I didn't realize I was calling it the wrong thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 Not wrong but that colors real different. I would call most others a green chart. That one would be a yellow chart for sure. When you have most of the colors available you can tell a lot about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stuff at Bass Tackle I mentioned above is identical to the Keitech chart as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
