    smokehound- So just how are you using a lighter to apply glitter? Just heating up the bait, then dusting it with glitter? How much stays on after a few casts?

    it sinks into the plastic, and will not rub off. Some flakes that havent sunk in all the way will rub off if a fish hits it.

    You heat it up until you see the plastic glisten, then quickly dust it, you'll see the flakes sink in under the plastic.



    Black w red, looks interesting.

    It's possible to do the same thing with kittens, but they tend not to be so life-like afterwards... and good luck trying to get that smell out of your microwave.
