BuMMeRBaits Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Anyone poured up any baits in scuppernong, it's a color by ZOOM, kind of looks like Amber Brown or Root Beer with no flake. Anyone seen this color or have a combination close to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyncke Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 You are right about the color and Zoom. I do know that Mann's sells a scuppernong Jelly worm. Don't see that color sold in here in New England. I've been wanting to fish scuppernaing Jelly worms since I read in Bassmaster close to thirty-five years ago, that they were the bait of choice for Harry n' Charlie. lol If anyone has a scuppernong recipe, please post. Good luck, BB's. Lyncke Make a fishin' pact - don't ever stop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsmblack Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 A guy gave me all my stuff to get started, including a book that he wrote his recipes in. One of the recipes is scuppernog. It's one of his favorite colors. I made him some lizards in scuppernog and he said they look pretty close. 6 oz. plastic 12 dr. amber 6 dr. red 6 drops black desired amount of salt/softner/hardner etc. All colors are LC Try it and let me know what you think.

RobShaw Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 I grew up eating scuppernong grapes as a kid in the Carolina's. The big name companies make this bait in pretty much a translucent (when held up to a light) brown. I like the recipe above. When I make a bait similiar to scuppernong, i add a little green pumpkin as well. no flake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbasser Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 any one try that recipe? What does this color look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuMMeRBaits Posted May 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 I have tried it and it looks pretty good, still trying to make it look more like ZOOMS, trying more/less red/black in the mix until I get it right. Will tryo to get a picture put up, but getting ready for a Big TX this weekend and trying to get my baits finished for it. I have also started working on a Scuppernog Red, that is the same color with Medium Red Flake, it is actually working out pretty good.
