Thanks.  I've been after a decent frog color for a while now and I think I found a couple that will work for me. I hand poured all the bellies because I didn't want too much belly color like you would get using a laminate plate. So basically it was a learning process for me trying to find the right amount of belly color to pour to get the affect I was looking for.

The colors are pretty strait forward and easy to whip up save the frog color. That took some messing around to see how much gold hi-lite I needed to add to get the look I wanted. But still, these are pretty easy colors for anyone to make.

The purple is my version of Purple Cracker with a char pink belly. I'm happy with the PC color but think I will try a bubblegum instead next time so the purple doesn't wash out the pink so much.

I'm going to take these for a swim this morning and see what shakes out. BIG weather change here this overnight so I'm not too optimistic about the bite but you never know until you go.
