they are deftly good-looking baits Keith like usual I hope to see you doing the color thing with them it will be very interesting.
looks great, so how long does it take to pour those, I can only imagine
just gotta find 4 colors that work together and dont blend so much
not long, you can stack blending blocks so your shooting them all at once. take a lot of time to heat up 3 or 4 separate cups of plastic and keep them the same tempQuote:

cant tell you how many times I had colors that look great together in the cups but when you shoot em they change so much you wonder where they came from
i know what you mean
Those are nice baits! The three colors look great. Thumbs Up
I've seen the bass guys do this in the bigger baits bit never in these small suckers! They look sweet. Keeping 4 colors at the same consistency to be a nightmare for me!
me too, not something I will do all the time but here and there its fun to play and see what you can do.Quote:

Dear Baitman, You have to stop killing us with these wicked baits. I have to admit I am a bit jealous. Lol . I love them! I wish I had the time to mess with this stuff as much as I want to. Keep the killer stuff coming. Thanks for the inspiration!
Baitman.....those are pretty cool, your very talented to be able to make color combos like that
You have done it again baitman. Could You use a hot plate for keeping the 3 or 4 colors at temp?CF
it helps alot once you get them up to tempQuote:

I was in the shop at 6am this morning and the micro is running now, thats a long day pouring, but I spend a lot of time in here and have the opportunity to 'play'. On some stuff I do I am given instructions to just do em up in this color or that color but with my twist on it. I learned a while back that I dont need every mold I just gotta work well with what I got. I have a lot of them but most are duplicates to speed up production. I wont do the match southern pros color or match this zoom worm. I do my thing. I make my colors and dont worry about what the rest are doing. Most of the time when they want you to match something its so they can get it cheaper but that doesnt do me any good. Why waste plastic and time just to sell it cheaper. I guess what I am saying is do your thing and dont worry about me or anyone else and you cant go wrong.
it is true Keith you should master what you got and not try to get a bunch of molds that you're not doing anything with it anyway yes we do have a lot of molds but I do not doing a lot of work with them in you should try to concentrate on certain ones that you are wanting to work with and forget the rest we definitely would like to drop by someday and visit with you we made coming back to that part of the country this coming summer I'll let you know more later myself I consider what I do is a hobby and a sideline I realize your situation Keith and you are definitely trying to make a living at it and you are doing a good job keep up the good work Keith .Quote:
