bassn1 Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Lure Craft has a rootbeer color. http://www.lurecraft.com/catalog.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodsac Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Colors and their names have changed over time The new breed of pumpkin seed all seem to look like green pumpkin to me? They're a lot darker than they used to be. I have some old Culprit 10" worms in pumpkin seed. It's a light transparant brownish color like you described, with black flake. I recently made a color similar for a customer. Try this: 4 oz plastic 4 drops of amber brown 2 fluorescent yellow your choice of black flake If this works for you, let us know and I'll add this to the "sticky" recipes.

GB GONE Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 I use the rootbeer from LC and have been very happy with it so far. Just remember to shake it very well and add some tiny nuts in the container for even better mixing... Rootbeer looks great with some balck and green medium flake...

BigZ Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 We used to throw a lot of pumpkin seed worms. The pumpkin is the color (Lurecraft has it) and the seed is just large black flake. Use 1 drop per oz. of plastic to achieve a bait like the old Kalin's or AA's pumpkin color. Works for me (Shake your colorant real good!)...
