PAUTZKE'S Fire Dye Bait Dye

Works like it should. Bought to turn my nightcrawlers green. Works just like I wanted. Don't have to buy green worms now. I can make my own. I recommend this product.

The chartreuse works well. Mixed opinions on wether or not it helps to entice the crappie bite. We're catching them with and without coloring. And there doesn't seem to be any harmful effect on our shiners.Note: the orange and red did not color the minnows nearly as well as chartreuse.

The media could not be loaded. I have been using this product for a couple years now. I use it both ice fishing and for dying cut bait for trolling on Lake Ontario. I have never been dissapointed. This is the best product on the market. If you follow the directions it works every time. Yes....when it comes to dying live bait some bait species might take a little longer to take the color. The fins will dye quickly but the body might take a little longer. I assure you that it is worth the wait. We ice fish pretty hard in Vermont for everything from crappie, bass, pike and trout. Every species takes to this bait. Every person I fish with uses it now because it has proven itself time and time again. I HIGHLY recommend it!!!

It seemed to work well at first. I used two dozen shiners and a couple chubs were mixed in, sadly all the chubbs died in the dying process. So Id be careful what bait you use. The shiners turned out well at first but within a couple hours most of the color on them was gone. And the next day it was completely gone. So if youre planning to use this, due so within a few hours of dying them or its a total waste

A little surprised how well it worked without killing any minnows. A tad pricy and can’t say if I’d have caught less without it. Doubt I buy again

Works great for catching crappie, love this stuff

I have bought this stuff twice. The first time I didn't follow directions. Shame on me. The second time I followed the directions. $10.00 for a bottle to dye your bait and you can only do a few at a time. I watched videos and did everything right. Bait only took color after an hour. And the next day the were dead. This stuff is a waste of money and time. Now if it came in a bottle for $10.00 and you could make a whole gallon of dye and it worked yeah maybe. But you add four bottles of of water to the dye after putting the dye in your dye bucket. So you now have 20 ounces of dye depending on your choice of bucket you might get 6-7 bait in there and don't forget to put the air to them or they suffocate. And as far as time to die..everything I have watched and read says 20 minutes maximum. Well after an hour the color was starting to show.. conclusion: I have some tough skinned bait or this stuff is a rip-off.. make you own decisions. I will not buy it again.

Absolutely dyes the fish just as it promises. I will buy more

An excellent product from what we see so far...walleye loved the colour...

I used the chartreuse and it made my minnows look like they came straight from Fukushima!

This really made the colour pop on the baits never will I brine again with out the proper colour dye!!

After 1 use of the bottle I had half a bottle left which leaked all over the bottem of my bag and throughout my ice fishing gear making a huge mess

Not as great as advertised. No indication it must be used full strength as is. It might be great on a given day but no guarantees. That's why they call it fishing....not catching.
