vanillagorilla Posted January 16, 2005 Report Share Posted January 16, 2005 Anyone have a recipe for the roboworn morning dawn color. It appears to be some flourescent pink color. I have tried a light shade of lc bubblegum, but is not transparent enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted January 16, 2005 Report Share Posted January 16, 2005 Try strawberry with a touch of white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clemmy Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 never tried it, but if you look at the roboworm site, you can see a drop or two of purple to it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Morning Dawn has always been one of the most difficult colors to copy for me. I have found the closest match to be MF's fluorescent pink with a light electric blue vein. The hard part is the vein because it needs to be a thin, split layer with a very, very light electric blue shade. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clemmy Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 well, perhaps the hint of purple results from Al's mixing the blue with the pink... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigmeister Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 I haven't tried it yet but the word on the street has it the way to make morning dawn is........one drop of red per ounce of plastic and one drop of blue per ounce of plastic . Fill the bottom of the mold cavity with the lite blue plastic and then fill it the rest of the way with the lite red. Where the two colors blend will be kind of a lite purple . I guess you could tweak the ratio of red and blue plastic to get the desired effect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BASS8BAITS Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Is this the shade of morning dawn you guys are looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanillagorilla Posted January 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 shade is correct, but the Roboworm version is almost transparent that you can just make out the color. care to share your recipe : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BASS8BAITS Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 I got this color from Del. I used 12 drops to 1/3 cup plastic. I plan on using 6 drops next time to get a lighter color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanillagorilla Posted January 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 hey bass8, what color are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delw Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Bass8 That looks pretty good. Its close but like you said less drops might work better to make it transparent. VG I been working on this color for a few months. I have it pretty close but no cigar yet. I thought I had it done but ran out of highlight so I am waiting on some more highlight to show up. Once I get it perfect I will post the ingrediants, its a very tricky color too make. I have 2 quarts(but ran out of highlight) of it and gave bass8 some to play with.

vanillagorilla Posted January 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 tried the scanner, but it comes out looking all white I'm gonna have to break down and buy a digital camera. stay tuned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badfish03 Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 tried the scanner, but it comes out looking all white I'm gonna have to break down and buy a digital camera. stay tuned. Try placing a colored piece of felt or construction paper that contrasts with the bait over the top of it when scanning it reduces the glare and makes the bait stand out. Green black and maroon-red felt seem to work the best. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chirmy Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 My best guess and it is not a secret anymore but here is what you should try and why. MF Earthworm I have been a fan of this color and some of you may remember me refer to my "girly color" worm as far back on tacklemaking.com. It is the morning dawn color, pink with a blue tint. Why does it work so well? here is your answer, Have you ever seen baby crawfish? When a crawfish lay's her eggs she holds them in her tail. when they hatch here is what a bass sees. The mother willl release the load when in danger and a pink ball of babies float araound to be eaten. I have more research on this than I care to mention lol but the picture tells all.
