1)Am wondering if any of you guys know of a solid chartreuse airbrush paint, or what mixes makes that up?

 

2) Anyone know were I can get a blank bomber style crankbait?

 

             Thanks.

 

 

True chartreuse is yellow paint with a little blue mixed into it, and you don't really see it on baits too often.  Most guys including me prefer Neon Yellow Createx to true chartreuse because it is a brighter, cleaner looking color.  Createx used to sell chartreuse but I haven't seen it in their lineup for several years now.

 

There are lots of small companies that sell unpainted plastic crankbaits made in China that are knockoffs of commercial brands.  Bustin Bass Baits, unpaintedlures.com, Predator Bass Baits, etc, etc.  Be forewarned that knockoffs usually LOOK identical externally but are almost never the same internally, so you don't really get exactly the same bait as you buy from Bomber or other lure companies.  Some of them work great, some not so great, and some are worthless, so you just have to test them for yourself and winnow out the good from the bad.  If you have to buy three $2 knockoffs to find one that actually works, that would have paid for a a real Bomber - so buying the real thing and repainting it is sometimes a good alternative.  

Thanks
