 Thanks guys.  To make these I made the bellies, then hit it with a dual injector.  The colors are X2 Brown, Black and Flo. Green Chart.

 I like your work DF. I still have that drop shot turtle you made me. I've had a lot of guys talk about that.

Nice work DF.

The baits in your picture  do a good job of showing how colors used in different molds get either more intense or weaker depending on the thickness of the baits.

That's awesome Lamar, Thank you.

The finesse worms are hard to get a good photo of and the extra light I added kind of washed the color out some. You are right though, you have to boost the color up when making small/skinny baits to get it to stand out.
