I-35Lunkerz Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 Can anyone help with the Canada Craw color? I'm mainly trying to figure out the base color. The picture makes it look green pumpkin, but it's a more translucent orange/brown in person. Appreciate the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 This is a color that I wish was around when I poured because it's deadly!! Looks to be 2 different laminate colors and possibly the flake is making it look orange/brown? I would start with a very light green pumpkin over a very light watermelon and add your flake from there. Hope I didn't screw you up too bad!!

LOL Appreciate the advice, I'll let you know how the next run turns out! Yep, great color. I've seen it bring in big bass in southern ponds and big walleye in clear northern lakes. Hard to beat! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am seeing brown pumpkin though. Maybe over a light watermelon. laminate. Orange flake, with black for color pop? However after looking at other baits, bigger ones, to get a better look at the color, what I am seeing is not so much a laminate, but the either brown pumpkin, and or light watermelon, coreshot into a clear shell. It could just be that the photos are lighted to make the other appearance shiny giving it the look of a core shot Can't really shoot a core shot if the mold isn't set up that way. In place of the brown pumpkin, olive might work but go easy with that one so you don't lose the translucence. Actually, I think there are a number of ways you might be able to achieve that color. But without turning you into a mad scientist we'll await your report on your results. Now you should be totally confused! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't even think of the amber colors. I know I have a bin full of color matching attempts. Variations of variations. What fun is pouring if we don't have a few hundred bottles of coloring? I can even see using a dark gold mica powder for that color. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
