certain colors/ certain size

[Brent]

Do certain color work better with larger baits or with baits that have more detail?
I recently picked up Cut Throat Trout (changeable) I went with 35 drops to 4oz of plastic, on my small pan fish baits the color change just did not seem to happen, but on baits that had more surface are the color came out fantastic. My next batch I will try adding more colorant to see if it affects the smaller baits in a good way.
I did manage to save it by adding a tad of Kelly green glitter.

Note; Im trying to start a cookbook as stated in previous post, so I did not want to add more color after first shot

The volumn or density of a bait plays a huge part in color. Thicker baits will always show up as darker, or richer, in color than a narrow or thin bait using the same batch. Changable colors like that one will shift better in thicker baits because of the extra  surface area and they have more internal volumn for reflection from inside.

If all you want is a starting point for colors, this will work. I'd work up a color until its to where I want it then add it to the cook book. If a color doesn't work well with certain baits or some sizes of baits I make a note of that at the end of the recipe.

Agreed ctom. Some colors just don't look the same in a thin worm and thick swim bait. May have to increase or decrease a colorant according to the bait design to get the same effect. Can be tricky.
