I just found out that the rootbeer devileyes you need to dip them in a couple coats of white before dipping them in chartreuse. It works a whole lot better that way. You may need to use the same trick on other colors as well.

Well, it just sort of came to me........;)

Actually I tried a few and wondered what the heck. Well I just happened to have my box with the old amber devileyes sitting next to me and looked at them and saw just a little white above the chartreuse. That's when I got this brillant idea.....:rolleyes:

Wonder if that's because I'm a fisherman.......;)

BTW I ended up going in Marburgers and couldn't leave empty handed.......Dang. Picked up some more rootbeer devileyes. They have the dip there if you do need some.

Damn...back I go. I picked up 4 bags at Academy and 2 at Marburgers as well. They're a dollar cheaper at Academy by the way, but Marburgers is a lot more conveniant. Remember, they work without the dip too.

Monte I know we talked about dipping at Marburgers, but I was a bonehead and forgot about the white first. It did take looking at those older amber ones to remind me how to do it. This wasn't my first rodeo, but I forgot how to put the saddle on the horse. I should have gave you koodos as well......:D

That's what I'm using too, hope they ain't going under cause I don't think there is another brand. Maybe we can turn more folks on to dipping and save them....;)

Not sure if anyone else has done this or I'm giving away a secret......I've just found that dipping the pink devileyes in white is an awesome combo in clear water.
