I have really good luck with my crappie baits that are done with the twin injector and having a semi-opaque sparkle belly like this.

I use to really despise any kind of disco flake until a fellow maker turned me on to this and mentiined it being easier to work with

I use a similar product used in glass production called "super sparkle". It hasn't got the disco effect but the stuff is high powered sparkle that makes a nice semi-transparent belly color.

Post by: Apdriver on 05/06/19 12:51 UTC: Those are nice. Flex Coat makes a product like that in violet, gold, blue and green that looks similar. I like to mix it with KBS for some nice topcoat on hard baits.

its Lure Works. a little pricey yes but for something that actually works and holds up I can justify it in that aspect

Post by: Massey on 06/09/19 06:45 UTC: Great ones! ;) Next month I'm going to France for a fishing trip. My brother was there last year and he says sparkling baits works great, I will take some with me. Hope hunt goes well both for fishing and real estate since I'm going there to buy an apartment on the French Riviera (https://tranio.com/france/cote_d_azur/apartments/).
