sometimes those ugly Baits will catch a lot of fish don't know if I ever told you guys about making up some jig skirts and I wanted them to be a brownish yellow I mean it was the most horrible color that I've ever seen anyway I threw them in my bag that I usually take out fishing with me and we were fishing in a slew and we were using green and white plastic was not doing anything and I decided to take out that horrible looking brown and yellow well admittedly restarted catching fish don't know what the difference was between the action was about the same the only thing I could think of was that yellow brownish color seem to do the trick so sometimes something ugly works out terrific. just make sure when you are buying colors that they are bleed proof I do use from quite a few different manufacturers all the ones that you guys have mentioned on here I have used basic lay all the manufacturers or companies by either die or pigments and mix them up yourself you can buy pigment from quite a few different companies and mix up your own if you like the pigments that I have bought in the past or 100% pure so a little bit when a long ways basically they take warm oil and mix in the pigments they also do with this with the dye so why not have gone and try some year own mixtures like to see what some of you guys can come up with.
