LJMLuke Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Hey guys! Since my craw recipe with LC whitw pearl in it keeps burning, I was wondering if someone might have a different recipe for craw they wouldn't mind sharing. My recipe is in my topic "Do pearl powders burn more easily?" if anyone is curious. thanks again guys! Luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthworm77 Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Luke, is the plastic burung or is it being dicolored by the addition of scent. You have to be really careful when scenting light colors. They are prone to changing color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Motor oil with red hi-lite is a cool craw color, also amber brown with orange hi-lite (red flake). Flake color is your choice. I always like copper, black, and red when making craw colors. Flake will also discolor your plastic while cooking, especially red and purple.

The Drop Shot Store Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Actually it depends on the color the craws are at this time of year in the water that you fish. Green, red, blue, brown, and black are the basic craw colors where I fish. Green is the predominant color although I have seen a couple of really cool looking bright red craws go ducking under rocks. If I understand you right, yours are red, so you might try a smoke pepper back (maybe throw in some red flake) with a red hilite vein and a black belly.

LJMLuke Posted August 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 Thanks guys, but could you give me an idea of how much of each color to add to an amount of plastic. Tuff to judge since I add all that salt. 1 cup salt to 1 cup plastic. I want a few different craws. whatever you know would be great. As for discoloring due to scent, I'm not sure. I'll have to try it again without scent. I can't remember if I did that before or not. Great observation! Thanks! Thanks guys, I am learning alot from all your help. Imagine trying this stuff out without the internet!! Later! Luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
