    Years ago got some chartreuse with white core from DH tackle. Used them up last spring and since then using the bfnt with very lil success. Hate the sparkles in the bfnt and the ones I had that worked great was more of a washed out chartreuse.

    Lil googling can’t seem to find what I need. Local sources would be great otherwise I can order online.

    Have also done well on bfnt ringies, the firecracker chartreuse has put walleye and crappies in the boat for me. Oddly I have had zero success with the moxies and puls-r’s that I read so many rave reviews on.

    Same luck as you p2f, but the forage base where I mainly fish is drastically different than the river south. The sparkle I’m sure represents shad really well, but have pounded my head with these things with not the same results. Still got a couple packs I’ll utlilize on p2 this fall.

    You could also try taking a white ringworm and hitting it with a chartreuse highlight marker. That or try putting some whites in a bag with chartreuse so they bleed together.

    That’s another sweet idea

    I’ve caught a lot of fish on moxies and puls’rs but hands down a ring worm is still the best bait out there for river walleyes.

    That will depend on whether the chartreuse worms are made using a colored dye or pigments. Pigments color plastic fairly colorfast while dyes tend to be the bleeders.

    Mister Twister transparent chartreuse twister tails are the best bleeders in the world. If you put a couple of them in a package of white worms you won’t have to wait long to see the bleeding occur. The warmer the place they’re kept while bleeding the better. The problem though if you want a worm with a white core is that the newly bled-into worms will be a solid, opaque, lighter chartreuse. You won’t see a white core.

    Is this sort of what you need? I don’t use dyes to color plastic so I can’t get a super transparent chartreuse but the white is thru the center. The camera’s auto filter doesn’t help either.

    This is 100% true, I’ve got a couple packs of Exude twister tails that I use, plus those Exude plastics, while a little old, still catch fish. Tom, those ringies are really nice, just like all your other work.

    Nick, did you look at these from BFishn? I’ve always liked this color on the Croix/P3, wish they made it in Moxies and Pulse-R’s too.
