Thanks so much for all your input, I do have one additional question though. The only reason I wanted to look into baking baits is I bought some from a local guy and I found that small differences in the baits made a huge improvement in the quallity of fish I was catching. You all know how the story goes from here, as a tourny guy you are allways looking to improve and replicate the results. I would like to know if you wanted a super soft plastic that still held a hook what plastic would you use and would you add softener. I promise no more questions till I start..... And screw everything up:) Thanks Nathan

I have been looking at this site for some time and I have finally got the cash together to start the hobby but I want to consult the masters and find out if they had a limitted budget and found themselves starting up how they would spend their money. I live in So Cal so any must haves for the area would apply. I am going to start small pouring out of small pans on a hot plate. I need help with the following. If you had $100.00 to spend on colors and glitter what would you get? Considering the west coast thing what plastic compound would you reccomend and any softener??? My Humblest Thanks, Nathan
