Thread: Getting Started

yep Buckeye Fishing, that's where I am now, tackle underground soft plastic color recipe's. I googled up soft plastic fishing lue color recipes and going Upto 26 pages of recip's at 4 to 5 a page...and haven't gotten off page 4 on underground, after doing TFF...keeps me busy for sure. Can't wait to get me a mold or two, as I think this is going to get me hooked...

Like all recipes, they are a guide and can be adjusted to fit your taste. A lot of times I find a recipe I like but don't have the exact colors or same sized glitter they use. I just use what I have and have come up with some pretty sweet colors. Thats what I enjoy the most, coming up with my own variations. If I wanted the exact color Zoom, Yum, or Berkley made, I would just buy their lures.

Buckeye Fishing, My sentiments exactly...but thank you for the reminder. One reason most of get started in the first place, in my opinion is we can't get the colors we want, in the style bait we want to fish. Either the manufacturers don't produce it, or the stores don't carry it...

Buckeye Fishing, I wound up with 37 pages of recipe's and am getting a three ring binder to put them in after they go in protectors. I will be working on a copy able form for working up new colors, or for a recipe I might be working on and changing a bit. I will be making baits or myself mostly to start and see where it goes. Just a hobby mostly. Been thinking of a POP mold or two and pouring a few just to get my feet wet in the hobby till I can afford to get some aluminum molds...
