sunshine crappie lure recipe?
« on: 01/29/23 20:15 UTC »
I hear people talking about a soft plastic recipe called sunshine. What is it? Yellow or a yellow with just enough orange to give it a slight orangish tint?  I've never saw it so i could be completely off but had to ask hoping somebody knew what it was.   ;D

I watched a you tube video from lake country fishing (at least I think that was the name).  He used the yellow based chartreuse as the base and added silver, gold and chartreuse glitters.  That is the only reference to sunshine that I am aware of.
I find it incredible that I have to explain to a grown American citizen that taking a knee during the National Anthem is disrespectful.

Sorry Les, I haven't heard of the color.  I haven't used it, but if it helps, I know Dead On Plastix sells a color called sunshine yellow.

Chris, i'm thinking that's what kit is. Either that or yellow with a little orange mixed in.

 Right on.  Playing around with colors can be fun, frustrating, and rewarding.   Just depends on the day.  I did buy some color changing colors finally.   Haven't used them yet, buy soon.  Real soon.
