Swimbait
« on: 04/05/11 17:48 UTC »
Hi Guys,

I am very new at pouring baits and need some help. I have a 605swimbait mold from BassTackle. I want to inject one with grayish clear body with black flake with a light purple vein down the middle. I how do I do the purple vein????

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Tom

Upload the picture to a site like tinypic.com and then simply copy and paste the link into your post.

That swimbait is an older one I found and I want to make my 605swimbait the exact same.

It's hard to tell from the picture, that may be a core shot.  You can try putting some purple plastic in the spru and then injecting the other color on top of it.  You may need to play with the plastic temps but that's what it looks like from the pic.
