Looking for some help with the color NewAyu.

Who makes this color? Zoom?

Culprit has an Ayu color. Try this link:  http://www.culpritstore.com/catalog2/products.php?line=1&type=3&subtype=24. Its called Super Ayu.

For those interested, here's the link to Zoom's color plate and is a time saver when looking for some colors. This Ayu color is not shown here however.

The Culrin Dropshot Worm [the one shown in the link] that Culprit offers in the Super Ayu is one dynamite cold water walleye bait when fished on a jig. I have a bunch of these baits in my closet just for walleye jigging when the water gets cold. Maybe 6 of the colors shown on Culprits color plate in this bait.

4oz...

Top:  Light watermelon (maybe 2 drops watermelon green X2 and 1 drops watermelon brown X2) with smidge of small black and small gold flake (might be gold holo??)

Middle:  Maybe 6 drops Amber Brown (LC)

Bottom: 5 pearlescent (M-F), 1 white (LC)

This is another subtle color that you can get close to with pictures from the internet but really need a bait in hand.

If I get a chance, I'll get you some exact drops/formula if my recipe is close...

Ok so I went out to check another picture from another site. What a difference!!!!

Changes my recipe for sure!!!

I would use 6-8 drops of avacado (LC) for top, 4 drops amber brown for middle and same for bottom.
