Lucky777 Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 I've tried searching the search engine here and google and all I could find is actual chicken recipes. Which is fine and all but it made me hungry so I am posting here before I eat some friend chicken. Does anyone know the color recipe for chicken on a chain? Do they just use watermelon with a little brown and clear plastic with glow powder? Any info will help. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Interesting color. I just looked up pics, and no 2 are alike! I'd start with pearl on the belly, watermelon on top, and a chartreuse tail. The flake is up to you. Many different variations out there. I might also mention it would be best if you posted a pic of what you're trying to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLuvin175 Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) There are many iterations of Chicken on a Chain but matching a Bass Assassin's version would be a good start since i think he invented the color, or at least the catchy name. Watermelon Red Flake for the back color. The belly is a Natural Glow with Silver 0.015" hex glitter. And for the tail, if you want, an opaque Chartreuse. Here is my formulation using LureWorks Colorants for 1 cup plastic each. Other suppliers colorants should approximate to the below numbers. Back Watermelon 101----------20-24 drops Black 0.040" Hex----------1/2 tsp Fire Red 0.015" Hex---------1/8 tsp Belly Natural Glow 128---------1/4 tsp Silver 0.015" Hex----------1/8 tsp Tail (optional) Chartreuse 126---------50-60 drops Adjust accordingly to your personal taste or to what you have in your inventory. On a side note if you want a chartreuse tail without having to shoot a three color bait you might consider painting the tail. It was discussed here in this previous thread: Good luck and show us your results! Edited May 11, 2017 by McLuvin175 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHLures Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) My top color is basically exactly what mclovn175 said but my bottom is this... 1/8 tsp LW pearl white 127 1/8 tsp LW pearl silver 170 1/4 tsp .15 silver glitter. The fish seem to like it! Edit: that's for 6oz plastic. Edited May 11, 2017 by BHLures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
