Black Spike it

Post by goldrod » Mon May 15, 2017 9:45 pm

just recently got some after seeing someone use it on HIVIS braid instead of using a black permanent marker... I must say I like it better and it works... at least on Super Slick yellow..

Also I have been using it on chatterbait, jig and S/B skirts.. esp greens and browns that I'd want to add some black to..
best recent purchase i've made.. but instead of bring a black permanent marker I think you will find this better.. I do 3 feet at a time

I think I saw somewhere that Michael Neal does this when he's punching. He dips the the tungsten weight into the bottle and slides the line in and out to coat it in Spike-It. Claims it holds the color all day + gives it some stank. Was thinking I'd give it a try this summer and see what I think.

It's a scent trail, like being down wind from a BBQ joint!

I never thought about a scent trail

Is there a company that makes white soft bait dye? Most fish and craw fish have white undersides and I don't think its incorporated into plastics enough.
