    Default Frostip Rabbit


    Well decide to try their Frostip Rabbit so see if I like it more or even as much as their 2 tone Rabbit strips so here are a couple of them. So what do you think? I would like to have a bit more of the tip color personally.

    Black and Chartreuse


    Black and Fuchsia

    They don't add much color to the tips but if the main color is the color you want the tip color does add a little flash.

    Is that the candy red pp you speak of? I would like to see more color on the tips too but it seems like it will have a nice flowing action in the water

    NO they don't and it actually looks like it would show up better. Also it does look better in hand than in Pic. However I would like a bit more Chartreuse in it. I may see what I can find to help that, maybe some die pens or dip die, don't know how either would work on rabbit though.

    Va I think it is and it's either Candy Red or Candy Raspberry. They are close and the Raspberry has a tiny bit more of a purple tint to it. Hard to explain.

    I like the colors, and the fact that it's just a hint of color, the effect is good. Bold, vivid color is somewhat easier to find, and we have all learned that the little detail makes a big difference at times. As always the jigs look good. Using one similar to each of these without the frost and the other guy in the boat using with would be an interesting experiment. When my brother and I fished together regularly we would do comparisons like this, some with surprising results. The red mark on the side of a rattle trap sticks in my mind, and that day it made a big difference.

    Your absolutely right Skeet, it is usually the tiny little thing that makes the difference.
