Finally
« on: 04/12/14 11:57 UTC »
Lacrosse has been taking up %100 of my time but I finally got out to the building today. I planned on making a few colors I've seen posted recently until I noticed my scrap bin.
My scrap bin was getting a little too filled for my liking so I threw a bunch of it into 4 cup Pyrex cups and heated it. Put HDA and violet hilite until it was visible. Here is what I ended up withdefinitely a color that I'm going to fish with. I learned to not be afraid of scrap piles today lol

 Nice j.  Did it take a lot of hi-lite to show through the HDA?

I like the color earthworm with violet hilite in it. I've never tried it in a senko. Interesting thought. But as a shaky head, jig trailer or even a tube. It's a great color.

I like it too Lamar. Wish I could say I came up with it but I stole the idea from grayth :p. I made it a stick because it resembles a color I catch a lot on

Don't fear the scrap pile!  If the color is too hideous for your normal sticks, grubs, tubes, etc; just make frogs.  Good work!

That's a very nice color.  and to bring it back from the scrap pile....  what a bonus.  Nice work.
