I'm making some soft plastic baits tonight to use out on the water this weekend. Just curious what is everybody's favorite color, or combination of colors? The mold I'm using is a 2.5" Fry, and lamination plate by DO-IT molds. Here are a few that I've poured so far...........
Fish on!

I was always curious how those where made. Great job....
It's a really easy process. I use a basic 1000 watt microwave to heat my plastisol. If you go to the do-it website: Welcome to Do-it Molds - When pride is on the line you can check out all of their soft plastic molds. They seem to have top quality products.Quote:

Do you fish the Motor Oil/Chartreuse in dingy/muddy water? I've had pretty good luck with the grubs in the top photograph on Pomme de terre as well as Truman, the water's been stained on both of them.Quote:

I like dark/light (contrast) coloration on most of my plastics, but I just mentioned those two because they aren't always in the mix when colors/combos are being discussed ... at least not as often as blue/char - purple/char - black/char - etc.Quote:

Nice looking baits!
Red/char with flakes. Black/orange. These are my favorite meat getting bait colors.
Nice pours.
Those are very good colors you are pouring.
Thanks stormcloud, I just started pouring/injecting soft plastics a few months ago. It's a pretty addicting craft. There are just so many different possibilities..... I almost have as much fun injecting baits as I do using them. The thing about it when you come up with a new color combination, or new bait style you most certainly have to go to the lake and test it out![emoji16]Quote:
