CT Bassman Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 I have been trying to reproduce the BABY BASS coloration for my senko/stick baits. Does anyone have a formula for Baby Bass? Please help. You can send your formulas to Macha07@aol.com or Banddlures@aol.com Thank You very much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delw Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 baby bass is pretty much a three colored pour. Your white base, then a teal green highlight then a blackish green top While it looks easy its one of the hardest to pour Delw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senkosam Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Not something for mass production! The best poured bass color I like, is a laminate using pearl or clear glitter in clear plastic for the belly and clear to light watermelon mixed with gold, emerald green and black flake for the dorsal body.

Mojo Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Nice Frank! Did you place the glitter by hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senkosam Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Before I dipped the colored form into clear plastic, I applied dots of superglue (lateral line design) and pressed the sides into glitter. First .090 and then .015. I painted the eye on to the surface of the clear plastic, which slightly magnifies any pattern beneath it. I've dipped Lurecraft sticks in clear/flake and the plumper sticks are totally round and keep their softness and action, plus, the surface it like glass. This nutty crappie thought it was a bass: The stick was originally an LC, 4 1/4" (poor) Senko k/o. Now the mold is at least useful because you want a slim original if dipping is done. I dipped a Zoom 7" SST worm and have created a whip action. It caught bass Tues., jerked in shallow weed beds, the same as the LC dipped stick.
