I like less bold colors on the river crappies when casting is the method used to get to them. I have seven colors really nice shad-appearing baits now that don't put your eyes out when you look at them in the sun.

The hand poured bellies are a thinned out pearl with some assorted glitters and just a mere hint of turquoise hi lite. The top colors started off as a super thin smoke, then color added. The purple was given a lift by a drop of red transparent in the 4 ounce batch and then finished off with some violet hi lites. The blue began with the same thin smoke and got a drop each of turquoise and electric blue plus two drops of transparent blue and a pinch of blue hilites. Purple, garnet and blue glitter warmed up both color.
you did a fantastic job on your small fry we will be working with this plastic bait don't know if we'll ever get his fancy as you but you never know which you have a outstanding looking plastic bait keep up the good work my friend.
