bump Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 AmerRebel, I never tried this recipe dont even know if it is supposed to be similiar to zooms. I am sure it came off of TU along time ago and it is not mine but you might want to try it. 4 oz. plastic 2 drops white 1/8 tsp. white pearl powder fine gold and black flake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burnerator Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Thanks very much to all for sharing info and the great ideas.I have two questions. 1) Is there a place where you can buy a kit of all these colors to experiment with. 2) Does anyone have a good glow in the dark recipe that they could post with the amounts.I am trying to get a green glow in the dark effect for the bottom half of a minnow bait I am working on..In the light the bottom half looks like a pale yellow and in the dark it glows green. Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me with this problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferree Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Question: I see that most of these recipes are showing drops of color added. Since a big drop and little drop can very drastically does anyone out there use milliliters or cc's in their recipes? I would think using a syringe with these markings would make the colors much more consistent, and once you counted drops per milliliter you could even convert them in these formulas and make it quicker and easier. Any thoughts? Thanks, Kenneth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nambass Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 While I wait for my shipment, I have some time available and am so excited about the idea of making own lures, I cannot help myself. So I am willing (if it is good idea... )to make a pdf file with all the recipes and color images. Was actually playing with this concept for myself to have all the info in a table. What you say? Not trying to steal or copy anybody, I am offering my time to help getting all recipes into a TU downloadable pdf. if you all agree, then I can start with what we have here already but most do not have images yet, and will be helpfull if you can sent some images through as well and maybe more recipes. Just a thought! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AweStarCustomBaits Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Hey Soft, I tried that already, it comes out too light. I was thinking about watermelon with a small drop of green pumpkin. But before I wasted a whole lot of Plastic I thought I'd ask first. You got the glitter right on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerworm Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 alot of larews baits are salt impregnated as they were the leading company in that front. try kudzu or a drop of black in your watermelon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softworm Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Hey Soft, I tried that already, it comes out too light. I was thinking about watermelon with a small drop of green pumpkin. But before I wasted a whole lot of Plastic I thought I'd ask first. You got the glitter right on. I'd try what powerworm said or use a few more drops of watermelon. Sometimes you gotta waste a little plastic to get what you want. Add 1 drop at a time until you get what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
