jimalbert Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) Can anyone tell me if they have ever matched the Berkley Pumpkinseed color like in these pictures? There are 2 different colors (actually it seems like Berkley has 20 different shades of pumpkinseed). If so, can you share the recipe? Notice the difference in color - The worm on the bottom is what I am trying to duplicate but the color is somewhere in between the two. This is an old berkley powerbait Pumpkinseed crawler worm.

The Plastics Man Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Try Lurecraft Caramel If you want a darker berkley pumpkinseed, LC caramel , LC Natural to darken 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimalbert Posted July 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 Thanks... Here is a better picture of the actual worm. Its very Opaque. Any other thoughts after seeing this? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want it transparent , add your base colour/s to your raw plastisol. To make it opaque , add white to your cooked plastisol. this will lighten up your pumpkinseed colour so make sure to adjust. Here's my take in this colour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's my take in this colour Thanks for the info and that looks pretty close. I'm brand new to pouring and really only started because my son is interested in it. Would you mind sharing the recipe for the one you posted? I need to order some things to get started and don't want to waste my time. I'm leaning toward the x2 colors but I'm open to any suggestions. What plastisol do you recommend for worms/senkos? I was leaning toward M-F easy stretch but a lot of people like the ES plastic as well.
