ALso dont forget when adding salt(which is white) you need to add more color...

I got the blue fleck down perfect for the senkos

but now I cant find the recipe, I will dig it up...


The other day I was playing around and slipped and came out with an Identicle junebug color for just worms with out salt...

40 drops of black grape and 55-60 drops of red(lure craft colors shaken very well ) in 1.5 cups of m-f plastic

Yes, but some of us have colors that we wouldnt part with. But we do have some affects that we think look cool.

6 oz of 536, 10 drops of motor oil, add medium black flakes, and fine red and fine blue flakes.

Killer drop shot worms,

[charkins]

Frog Formula

4 oz Lurecraft 502 8 drops lc kudzu green add 1/4 teaspoon of medium black flake. This is the top of the frog

4 oz Lurecraft 502 1/4 teaspoonful Lurecraft white pearl powder. This is the bottom layer of the frog.

I sometimes place a chartruese foot and leg on the frog.

I use a lurecraft frog 5x714

Works for me here in southern OK. That is my only guarantee!

Well a safe bet would be bubblegum, 6 oz plastic, 5 drops red, 10 white, and mix well.

Turn this into cotton candy by adding red and blue glitter. .....

[Delw]

Red.
What about making this a sticky and we can all add to it?

if you post a recipe, be sure to add in the amount of plastic, colors, glitters, etc.

Color : Zoom Plastic recycle
By : Larryinmarietta
Plastic : 1/2 cup of old zoom worms
Mix : For more heavy baits add more salt when worms are completely melted.
Notes : This is for micowave oven directions: first add about 1/8 cup of un-cooked fresh liquid plastic to a corningware cup. Then add plastic worms parts, cut up into 1 inch parts. Set micowave to low/med power and set timer for 1 min. You will have to adjust the time and setting for your microwave. I use an old unit in the garage for this activity. Spray the molds with worm oil/jacks juice/cooking oil pam to make getting the new worms out of the mold. Cook the plastic till the new plastic is ready and the old worms are all melted. Add additional salt and glitter if needed and pour.

Color : smoke with flake
By : megabass/ Ken
Plastic : per ounce
Mix : sure this is an easy one but years ago I had to learn by trial and error so this should help someone just starting to pour worms.

add one drop of black per ounce of plastic for light "clear" smoke and two drops of black per ounce of plastic for a "medium " smoke color .
Add silver and black flake to imitate baitfish ,Red to imitate crawfish or another good crawfish imitator is made by adding red,green,black,and copper (or orange)flake to smoke colored baits. This is essentially the Yamamoto grub color #180
Notes : always use an exhaust fan and avoid breathing the fumes from hot plastic when melting /pouring.
I normally use a microwave and cover the pyrex cup with saran wrap to contain the fumes .

date : 28/11/2002
Color : junebug
By : megabass/Ken
Plastic : per ounce of plastic
Mix : add three drops of "indigo" (black grape) per ounce of plastic .

Color : Bubblegum
By : JGK
Plastic : 1/2 cup @ 4 oz.
Mix : 5-6 drops Florescent Pink
2 drops white
Notes : The florescent pink must be added before you heat the plastic. Stir and put on heat. The plastic will become darker as it becomes heated. When ready, add white and stir. Pour.

date : 24/12/2002
Color : Junebug
By : B & D Lures 1
Plastic : 1 ounce
Mix : 1 ounce of liquid plastic
add purple color until you reach a medium to medium heavy shade. Mix thoroughly.
just before you pour, add green glitter( enough to your able to see the green shade). Do not put too much glitter. You will lose the strength of your plastic.
Insure that you mix the plastic each time you pour.

berkley Camo is one of the hardest colors to make. (at least for me)

Ive been playing a little, its close but no cigar yet

1 cup plastic
4 drops of moss green
3 drops of watermelon
2 drops oxblood

now the key I found to give it the brownish effect was the brown Fleck and the gold fleck added into it. I only had .035 and it should be fine fleck

Like I said close but not right yet

Delw

[Delw]

We melted that stuff all down and started from scratch. here one thats is better I think with green fleck it would make it.





this one is Floresant yellow and pumpkin with black flake.

all ready had the colors made and remelted together(daughters idea)
I think if green fleck was used it would bring the greens out

Its weird you can have one color but change the fleck and get different colors.

I just downsized the pics so the screen wouldnt scroll

BLUEGILL

4 ounces Plastic
1 Drop Black (smoke)
Just a touch (or desired amount) of the following glitter: small blue, medium black and gold, large green. Use less large green than the other flakes.

Another version:
Same as above, but drop the blue flake and pour a light blue vein instead.

[alsworms]

Most A's Magic are triple pours..............

Watermelon top (1 drop watermelon per ounce of plastic)
Blue Neon vein (per ounce of plastic: 1 drop blue, 1 drop black, touch of blue hi-lite)
Brown belly (2 drops per ounce).

Add some red flake in the watermelon for an added effect.
