The Hunt For Big Fish with Larry Dahlberg

im having trouble making my soft plastic lures that nice chartreuse color that you find in store brought lures such as the gulp alive saltwater shads. I try a pearl white base with yellow and the add a little green but I can only manage to get a mustard yellow or a 'too blueish' type of yellow.

How close to chartreuse is the new Flo. Yellow vs the org. Yellow which is more mustard yellow

i think you will get a much brighter green out of it.

Thanks Larry, so I'll get the Flo. Yellow and Flo. Green and try a few drops yellow with a smidge of green and see if I can get the bright chartreuse I'm looking for.

Here's a pic of a few drops of flo yellow added to clear soft plastic for the tail section. Came out yellow/greenish. I'm sure adding some drops more would of made a more true yellow:

It looks like you're getting it dialed in!
best,

Oh that looks pretty good. Making a white base first then using the Flo. Yellow might make it less translucent.

thanks for the tip with the white. I'm looking forward to trying some color combos once I get my whiggley to swim correctly. one step at a time.
