    Most "just Facebook" sellers are not legit.. as in they arent registered businesses paying federal taxes, and less likely to be caught on FB. Once you register a domain name you are easier to catch im sure. Your money is safer buying on ebay or preferably through companies that sponsor this forum! Not that they are all scammers on FB, just they arent following the rules and could shut down at any time and are not able to be punished like a real business. Most are good hard working fishermen doing it on the side, but still we should all reward the site sponsors anyways. Im sure if you ask, they can do about any color you see on Facebook.

    Tried sending them a order a couple of times lately and no response?? Not sure what I'm doing wrong, he answered me right away when I had questions. I do know he is having some health issues.

    There is a way to add glitter to the surface of a soft plastic lure: Mend It soft plastic glue. I don't use it to repair or modify plastics preferring a solder gun or candle, but recently I saw a video on YouTube where glue was applied to the head of a grub and then rolled in silver glitter. An optional method using the same glue added it as a clear coat over glitter dropped on the lure's surface.


    Craft glitter I assume would do fine and not be affected by the glue's chemical makeup. When it comes to gold, silver or any flashy color, color IMO is in the eye of the beholder. Was it the gold color or the flash that caught the fish's attention followed by the strike? I've caught as many fish on pearl white crankbaits as those with metallic finishes - including gold. But I do like the idea of adding glitter to soft plastics just for the flash quality that may enhance certain action designs and get and hold a fish's attention.

    BTW, the lures shown on the sites that sell lures (Crappy Pappy's example) and Caunc pin tail grubs, are perfect tail designs - and I'm not talking curl tail.

    Kev, I only posted those baits as alternatives. I’m not pushing them. I’ve been using that product for going into my third season and never had a problem with ordering and receiving them promptly. They’re just a mom and pop shop. Didn’t mean to stir anybody up. They work so I use them.

    Gold has been a favorite of mine since I've gotten into tying jigs. There weren't any gold color plastics out there at that time, now they're everywhere.

    I like gold and chartreuse for clearer water and gold and orange for stained water.

    I just made a post while ago on the Louisiana forum featuring some gold jigs I fished yesterday
