Have had feedback from our sponsored anglers that with the added attraction of glass rattles they get smashed by Bream

Cheers Chop, thinking of reducing the Orange belly on top one so it's just orange from the bib to the middle treble point or making the belly clear blue same as the Clear Prawn?

Feedback appreciated Breamers?

Maybe that blueish/purple hue over the top of that one? Like what was on the clear pink that was available a while ago to give it a bit of reflectiveness but retaining its see through body. #038 has it but it isnt as reflective because the body has a more solid coulour than the pink one that was out a while ago, even that bottom colour you have there has it(the hue). But i dont think its quite as strong, might just be the lighting though?

Agree Chop and have asked for the pearl blue see through colour on the body of the top lure, also bottom lure will have a red eye

They look great Mark, as Craig said, the bottom one looks killer.

Speaking of the pink one... any chance of bringing it back? Or getting qa couple for me from somewhere?

[CHOPS1]

Hi Mark,

Personally I rate a red eye as one of the most important things in a Bream lure.

My red texta gets quite a workout and the results are pretty good





Dave

Very effective Dave and agree that Red eyes do attract, eyes on that one uses a light reflective paint so reflects at different angles if you know what I mean still shows through Red Texta

Also those see through pearl light reflecting finishes that Chop mentioned really stand out and seem to reflect light and flash a Hue of Blue or Purple even in minimal light so great effects with clear glass colour Blue, Orange, Green etc on top of the lure and bottom pearly reflective see through colours so top colour gives glass type effect through the lure and bottom & Body flashes a Hue of Purple or Blue

Colours are a funny thing amongst Breamers Aust wide as Chop & Station mentioned they liked the Pink in S.A probably would have trouble selling Pink in other Statesso still open to suggestions on colours and your ideas

That's why I use a texta and not paint, all the original finish/reflectivity still comes through, especially on normal eyes.

My ideal Khamsin colour would be:

Translucent dark green back coming halfway down the sides fading into a translucent silver with a solid silver belly stripe, a bit similar to the bottom one in the new colours you've got above but with much more green, probably down in line with the eye.
I'd then add black stripes, same pattern as the one I've coloured the eyes in on, and finished with red eyes.
Add the rattles you're talking about, and hopefully keep the mag casting system.
I'd buy quite a few

Good to see you're open to suggestions. I've been tourney fishing for a looong time now, up to almost 40 ABT individual events, and this is the first time I've seen the input even asked for.

Kudos

Brad still have Khamsin Jr DR in stock now, Khamsin Jr rattlers and Rigge 35F Deep rattlers should be ready by December.

Dave appreciate feedback on colours etc and pleased for you to have some input, and I'll see what we can come up with, fair bit of work for them to make blanking templates for painting "made from thin copper sheet from which pattern is cut out", was definately thinking a clear lime green prawn pattern
