Comfortably Numb Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Been hearing alot about Morning Dawn color. Here is a version I just made up. Pink on one side and blue pearl powder and a few drops of red on the other. Both sides have 015 Ocean flake Quote
cadman Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Pretty cool looking. Have you ever caught anything on that bright of a blue? Quote
Comfortably Numb Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 I have made Senkos in what I call Electric Blue, and do real well with them. Normally I stay away from blue baits, but I have not seen a Senko color they wont bite. Here is a Tequila color that works well. Bait is all one color but changes in the light andthickness BTW baits are for myself as a hobby and I dont sell them 2 Quote
cadman Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I was just curious. I have heard of the electric blue as well and tequila, however never fished them. It's good to know that these colors work so well. I would have never thought that. Pics didn't come through on your second post above mine. Quote

Cadman,tequila has been a great producer for me in stained and even muddy water.Theres some lakes I used to fish in the eastern part of the state(VA) very tannic and swampy that I wouldnt leave home without a bag or two in this color.

Thanks, I'll have to try to find some and use them this summer. Quote
Snakehead Whisperer Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Those colors would be killer here on the Potomac in summer. Bass just really seem to love the blue/fleck/junebug-ish colors. That stick bait looks top notch. Quote
Super User Felix77 Posted February 28, 2013 Super User Posted February 28, 2013 According to the book Knowing Bass blue and purple hues show up best in the water. Explains why they are some of the best producing lure colors. Quote
Super User Darren. Posted February 28, 2013 Super User Posted February 28, 2013 Nice pours, good colors. Personally I've not had a lot of success on blue/purples. Some, but not a lot. Quote
tholmes Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Great looking colors! Tequila Sunrise is my #1 color for worms. Tom 1 Quote
Comfortably Numb Posted February 28, 2013 Author Posted February 28, 2013 Nice pours, good colors. Personally I've not had a lot of success on blue/purples. Some, but not a lot. I agree and prefer greens and especially browns. Junebug is good though. Thanks all...Bill Quote
saugerman Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 I really like the color of your tequila sunrise Comfortaly Numb,, would you send me a PM of the recipe? I would really appreceiate it. Quote
Comfortably Numb Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 I have not made that color in a while. It was a "mistake" color LOL. I have written in my files... 8 oz clear plastic 1/8 teaspoon LC pearl blue powder 30 drops LC strawberry (any red should work) Give that a try in a smaller batch Quote
cadman Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Comfortably Numb, Ok, so if I may ask, have you or anyone else used this color on trailer craws like the Paca chunk or Ragetail style plastic baits. If so does this color work well on that also? Quote
Comfortably Numb Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 To be honest I dont really throw those color. I would imagine they would as bass have been known to hit wackier colors than that. You never know till you try Quote
RyneB Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 cadman, my favorite jig trailer in stained water is sapphire blue trailer on a black/blue jig. We were on a trip in Wisconsin and the only way to get bit was to be using the saphire blue trailer. I personally went through 3 packs of the saphire rage craws, then had to switch to the flippin blue paca chunks. I also love that color as a trailer for a black/blue chatterbait. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted March 4, 2013 Global Moderator Posted March 4, 2013 Looks very nice, kind of looks like the Culprit Fire and ice color I used to catch a lot of fish on when I was a kid. Quote

Downeaster2010 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I have two favorite colors and I have been a worm fisherman for over 40 years. I like black and purple. The blue has enough purple in it to please me. I like them. Quote
Bass Dude Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Would you care to share your "recipe" for making that tequila color?? Quote
