Bears Baits used to sell a bait flake called shad or shad pearl.  Since Bears Baits has shut down and David has passed away. I have no idea where to get that flake anymore and I'm running low.

Yesterday I was testing a new frog mold and I was planning on shooting black back with a pearl shad belly and green back with a pearl shad belly.  I had some opal flake from Deadon plastics that is similar.  It's not the same, but I was hoping. Maybe it would be good enough.  I had two cups of plastic ready to go, but when I added the Deadon opal it instantly turned into what looked like curdled milk.  Seriously, it looked like I could strained cottage cheese out of it.  I tried to use it anyway because I was more focused on testing the mold than testing the flake, but it remained nasty throughout the entire use of the opal pearl white plastic. 

On a positive note, the DoIt Molds crystal clear plastic seem to work really well and the frog mold seem to work really well. 

I was also able to use all of my dual injector hardware from my Bass Tackled dual injectors with my N2 injectors.
