Azbassinator Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Hello everyone, I've been pouring for a couple years now and certainly not pro. I poured a large batch of finesse worms after getting the color and softness correct. Went fishing and while not using the bait it was sitting on the deck it turned as clear as glass. I'm guessing UV did this. Has anyone experienced this and how to remedy it? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLuvin175 Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 What colorant / color were you using? What was the "load" on that colorant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azbassinator Posted May 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 I can't remember off the top of my head. I will look when I get home and get back to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 I've had that happen with light blue robo worms over the years, but I have no idea why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonah Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Did you put any scent on the worm? Some scents will leech the color out of the plastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ute Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Some dyes, especially chartreuse, will fade in sun light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azbassinator Posted May 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 I did use garlic scented worm oil. The dye I used was M-H from Lurepartsonline. The color I was using was red and blue to get a translucent pink. I've seen baits fade, but never have I ever seen them go as clear as glass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azbassinator Posted May 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Thx. So clear I don't think the fish could see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
