The Classic, Reimagined: Watermelon Red with Mica Flash!
 
Introducing Watermelon Red—the legendary color redefined by Bent Rod Fishing. This isn't just the classic hue you know; it's an enhanced, custom version that boosts visibility and appeal in every condition. We've taken this proven fish-catching machine and dialed up the attraction with our unique influence, ensuring your bait stands out in the crowd.
 
Legendary Color, Custom Performance
 
Watermelon Red is the ultimate finesse and general-purpose color, famous for its ability to mimic natural forage across varied environments. Bent Rod Fishing elevates this staple with key ingredient additions for superior underwater performance:
 
Base Color: A perfect, natural pale green provides the essential, subtle realism of the original Watermelon shade, allowing it to blend naturally while providing contrast.
Flake: It’s heavily loaded with high-impact red flake—the signature component that mimics blood, gills, or distressed crawfish—triggering aggressive strikes.
Texture: A small dash of tiny black flake is added to provide a realistic, organic texture and silhouette, making the bait look less uniform and more lifelike.
 
Bent Rod Fishing's Custom Edge: Added Mica
 
What truly sets our Watermelon Red apart is the strategic inclusion of mica powder. This fine, custom additive provides two critical advantages:
Added Flash: The mica powder creates a subtle, almost iridescent internal flash, giving the bait a unique glow that catches sunlight and attracts fish from a distance.
Increased Opacity: It slightly enhances the bait's overall opacity, improving its visibility in stained or deeper water without sacrificing the natural look of the classic color.
This single-pour color maintains its integrity and consistency while providing the reliable, deadly performance you expect from a Watermelon Red bait—now with an undeniable edge.
