    I think that’s a very good representation of the bait you’re looking to duplicate. Very nice!

    I went back and checked and it had to have been some Pro Tec Yellow Chartreuse. I don't have any Green Chartreuse, but I've got some ordered. That's what I've been asking about. When I paint heads, they never come out like I would expect them to. Yellow is either green or brown, blue is nearly black. Everything seems darker than I would expect. Maybe I'm getting the heads too hot before I dip them in the fluid bed, I just don't know. I'm stumped.

    Tail looks thin. Should have a lot of action
    The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along

    That powder paint is yellow chartreuse. There is a difference. Remember the difference in the chenille's Skip posted with the new chartreuse color? Same sort of thing.

    Dave, the pictures of the Yellow Chartreuse is the very same jar of paint I used to paint this jig head. In the jar, it's yellow chartreuse, but when I paint a jig head with it, it turns out to look like Green Chartreuse. Why does it change colors? I don't have a jar of green chartreuse paint. Whenever I paint a jig, the paint always seems to change colors, or at least shades. It always comes out darker. I don't understand why it changes colors between the jar and the finished jig.
