Look at you mannnn, how you changed from begining to now, you was not talking at all, now you are the best describer in youtube, hats off for this huge progress.
I love the idea of you making materials/supplies/kits for DIY bait making. You really have made a big impact in terms of getting people into bait making and I think there's no one better to do that sort of thing
You should set your aluminum mold on an electric hot plate to keep it warm instead of using a heat gun. That would keep the mold warm the whole time you are pouring. Then just remove it to cool and set the plastic.
My oh my, this is by far my favorite. Watching the progression of your bait builds has been awesome, I'm definitely buying this open pour mold. It's exactly what I've been waiting to find.
Hello I am a Chinese, I have been watching your videos since I first came into contact with youtube. I like your video very much, I hope you can produce more and better works in the future. I have also been studying Lua Production recently. Learned a lot from you. thank you very much. Sorry, because I don't understand English, these words were translated by Google. Take care to protect yourself and your family during pneumonia. Looking forward to your new work.
When I worked for a machine shop, there were these 'trekkies' that had us make phasers and tri-corders for them to sell at sci-fi conventions. Watching those CNC machines work is pretty cool.
Been pouring for years. I carve wood into a prototype and press it into clay to form a mold. I use Bang to lubricate the wood and then again to lubricate the clay before pouring to prevent adhesion.
I have a gut hunch Marling and Epic are going to make more than just a dent in the high end soft plastic bait industry. Those molds combined with your tutorials are brilliant.
Holy molly! This has been a long time coming! I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying soft plastic videos like this. Keep it up! Great looking mold, awesome looking baits!
Just found your channel and I have been watching your videos for the past week a lot and I’m hooked. Sorry, for the bad pun. Got a few ideas I like to throw out there. 1. On the aluminum mold bait, how would it be if you pour the plastic around a connected wire hardware so you can attach treble hooks. 2. For a special bait idea, a skeleton fish. Sort of a wooden crank bait carved skeleton. 3. Please revisit the upside down crank bait. I think if you lessen the angle of the lip like to a 10 or 15 degree angle, it will rise at a slower pace. Btw, that yellow bass paint job on that bait was gorgeous. Thanks for the good job on the videos, please keep them coming.
I love the detail that this guy was able to machine into those mold halves. I never thought of making an aluminum soft plastic mold. I have a CNC hobby mill in my home shop. I may get brave and try to model one just to see if I can get the same detail. I also like the action in the water that you're getting with your design. It's a bit to big for any kind of fishing I'd do but still I really like it. I've made bullet molds, high pressure air seal molds and a multitude of other gadgets and gizmos with my CNC mill. I'm sure this too can be done on my hobby mill.
Nate, Since you are going to clamp these while pouring, a better idea is to use ¼” dowel pins for alignment of the two halves. This offers 2 benefits: Better alignment & and less wear on adjoining plate. Screw threads will wear out the female alignment holes faster imho. Old mold maker. Oh, I really like Jay’s comment on the hot plate. Keep up the great work.
A 3” or 4” versions would be sick!! The bass in Kansas ponds and smaller lakes won’t always commit to the larger swimbaits! Amazing work as always, and an epic collab with Epic Bait Molds
Just made a rotisserie for clear coating out of my kid's lego robotics kit, got a lure drying on it right now. Needed to watch a vid while it sets up. BAM! Marling Baits dropped a vid at the perfect time.
God I wish they had this mold in a 3-4 inch. I'm sure the action wouldn't be nearly as good as this but just having a open mold poor is so much easier and cleaner to me. Thanks for the great content and share of knowledge. Happy fishing!
Do a one day live crankbait build and catch or any live bait building. The only thing we can do is watch Marling make amazing baits and go fishing outside. And can you give a recommendation for a bait I can draw out and make for summer pond fishing.
Wow. Loved the first one!!! Amazing. Please make a swimbait with a big paddle tail in the first colors for walleyes. 4-5 inch. I would buy!!! You rock!
Awesome video Marling Baits !! I am loving the content and the videos Marling Baits !! Keep up the amazing work Marling Baits !! Thanks for the hard work and dedication you put into making these awesome videos for us Marling Baits !! Cheers William !!
Just to let you know it's 77*F in Florida with the low tonight about 60 F. Tomorrows high will be around 85. And yes, I will be in the boat on Orange lake fishing. Love those molds I am gonna have to buy one.
Those moulds look like incredible value to me. I work in Quality control inspecting machined Pharmaceutical tooling sets for blister packaging, also aerospace components, to 3d models using CMM equipment and let me tell you that this guys work looks amazing from what I see through these videos. At the prices they charge you couldn't go wrong.
I feel your pain of not getting outside. I'm in New Jersey and we finally get warmer weather but now we're all getting quarantined with the whole state shut down.
Great work! Your videos and baits inspired me to make some big swimbaits and other cool soft plastics. I'll have to send you some! Stoked to see it leading to some cool projects for you - Keep it up!
What you should do there is make one of your twisty wire swivel jobbers and put that on the beast 8/0 and trail the stinger treble to the center section, and even put the top hook in the plastic in the center segment, and if you're really feeling froggy, a third section with a tail stinger, you could make a little wireform rig for it, I mean at this point, go all out
Have you considered using like a fiber mesh weave to help hold the bait together? Those segment style baits typically do not hold up well at the joints. Once hit a time or two and the fiber weave really strengthens those joints.
was on my way to run errands by the lake with a pier over open water with a walker and my open reel rods in a bag. north east wind came up just as I was standing there waiting for the bus. changed my plans instantly. ssoo much fishing to do later this year is keee-rect.
great video. if you take a hole punch like the ones for paper and punch a circle out of say an empty bleach bottle a pierce the hook through the center of the plastic circle after you put the trailer treble on it will prevent the hook from coming back off the main hook easily. it will snag on the barb
Great Video, a plumbers solder mat might save your bench from burning. Maybe you could include some burnt scrapings in the plastic, and next time it's cold, make an 'Arctic char' themed bait ☺
Ok, got a question for ya. What about putting some clear plastic in the eye slots, and pre-placing the eyes before you pour the body? Basically have the eyes buried in plastic instead of gluing them on later? You could do it before the tow halves of the mold are assembled, so you could get the placement pretty easy. Just wondering.
I just recently stumbled accross your channel and your awesome at making baits. I don't make baits but fish pretty much everyday, i live in Iowa anyway if you wanted to I could use your baits catch alot of fish with them and I know people will want them
lookinforthebig1 90 he could make them and put the name of his RUclips channel visible inside, and make a keychain version and a lure versior so even more people would buy.
I'd really like to see a video or 2 or you going through all your fishing gear and what you think of your rods and reels and whether you'd recommend them or not
You need some sort of Ceramic Tile to stop setting your Workshop on Fire !!! Great Mold !!! Got to be happy with that !!! WOW .... Got to get me one of those !!!
como andas? la verdad que estoy viendo todos y cada uno de tus videos para pasar la cuarentena, y no hay nada mejor que verte trabajando en lo que te gusta! te mando un abrazo grande desde Argentina!!
Nice! For the Aluminum mold you could have done a bit better of a job selling it though. Maybe listing circumstances that it would be useful in. Places that supplies are low in like in Alaska, remote Canada, jungles or other places. Maybe there is a mom and pop fishing shop and setting up a soft plastic station would be an easy way to create "house lures" for cheap and they could easily do plenty of different colors for whatever is biting. they could have a basic color spectrum and if people say they are biting yellows and reds you can make a custom red and yellow bait! on top of that they can always make themed lures like bright green with green glitter for St. Patric's Day, or red white and blue for Fourth of July, you could make any number of custom colored baits for whatever reasons! Other people who might have use for a soft plastic mold are large boating/fishing clubs or classy fishing resorts that want to be able to make custom lures for the people who come to fish there. It would be good to list things like this and how expensive, how much space is needed and how much effort setting up a soft plastic station would be. Then if anyone is in that situation or knows anyone in that situation then they can easily make the decision about it. Can you really get started with just a micro wave, vacuum chamber and heat gun in the back room or do you need anything else? I was also wondering if you could make a corona virus bait or if you were going to do anything Covid-19 themed at all? I don't know how you would do it but I'm sure you could get creative. I mean technically going fishing you are still isolated as long as you are not in places people pass through often and are not right near people. Maybe you could get onto the trending page with it if there are a lot of extra people watching videos. You could make a Corona Beer shaped lure, you could put a crown on a lure and make it look like a king, maybe make it a king salmon as the base fish, you could make a soft plastic bait that looks like the images of Covid-19 under a microscope , you could make a king shaped soft plastic lure, you could paint a surgical mask and gloves onto a lure, you could create an incredibly beautiful lure like the curled Maple lure with a few light touches of paint like the belly(or use plugs like detailed below), gills, fins, and maybe a light translucent pearl white scale coating and then list it online for sale with the profits going to help hospitals or whatever your favorite charity is. You could do something else entirely differently but I'm sure there is an idea here! I Do think the charity build video might be nice because you would have an excuse to make it as amazing as you can with no expense spared. You could also try to get onto the main page with a title like "How to fish safely during the outbreak!", "Fishing stores closed? Make your own lures this fishing season to stay safe!" or something like that. If you are getting a lot of new and extra views because everyone is stuck inside then you might consider updating your instructional videos about how to make different baits with all your tips you have learned over the years and the different ways to do things. You have learned a lot of things over the past years and it might be nice to see some videos like that made to help give people something to do while they are inside so by the time they can get outside again they might have a nice home made lure to show for it. It seems like you are getting more towards assuming the people watching are subscribers, that they know what is going on and what you did in previous videos. I guess it really depends on the number of new viewers you are getting or unsubscribed viewers and if things are changing that. Lastly I wanted to say that your new editing in the last video where you did Ivan Miranda style jump cuts and stuff made the video much nicer to watch. We all know how sawing works so where you started sawing and instead of fast forwarding through the footage, you just cut it to make it look like it only took like 3 pulls of the saw blade it makes you look like a super hero. If you were to add in some nice music in the back ground it might also help but it might be hard to find some. If you have any friends in bands then you might be able to get permission to throw in some of their music. Just as long as you don't use like those 20 songs that are on every garbage compilation/list video. I feel like if you were able to step up your editing game and if you condensed your video builds down even by 5% by cutting out the bits between each drop coming out of the super glue bottle, the saw cutting through the middle of the wood, setting up some things and other stuff it might make the video feel more fast paced. If you could sneak in some editing jokes and were able to write a few ahead of time with the help of "movie magic" your videos would go from being good to being awesome! But that is something you need to experiment with on your own. Also If you had put plugs in that maple bait last video that thing would have been amazing! Do you have a plug cutting bit? If so you could hide those lead spots with wood and that raw wooden bait would have been so perfect. like I said last time that action was AMAZING! That thing looked alive and that beautiful wood grain gave that fish such a great look, the eyes and tail matched perfectly. Keep up the awesome work!
Awesome baits! I would recommend taking some insperation from the builders over here in Sweden and try airbrushing your soft plastics. Also use wire stingers with trebbles under the bait for a much better hookup ratio.
Look at you mannnn, how you changed from begining to now, you was not talking at all, now you are the best describer in youtube, hats off for this huge progress.
I love the idea of you making materials/supplies/kits for DIY bait making. You really have made a big impact in terms of getting people into bait making and I think there's no one better to do that sort of thing
5:45 *apologizes to vacuum chamber*
The rebranding of glitter into "flake" is always hilarious to me.
Somewhere out there is a stripper going "do I go with the green flake or the blue?"
5 in1 in paint / plastic it is called flake its not rebranding
I use glitter quite often. Maybe I should start calling it flake so I won't have to hear all the whining about glitter from everyone.
When your wife catches you it’s flake
There is a difference actually
Dude that’s awesome!! One of these days I hope to get to fish with a Marling bait. 😉
So does Nate........oooohhhh sorry
You should set your aluminum mold on an electric hot plate to keep it warm instead of using a heat gun. That would keep the mold warm the whole time you are pouring. Then just remove it to cool and set the plastic.
The constant temperature would be better for the longevity of the mold also .
Hot cool hot cool creatures undo stress on metal.
@@willwinn8559 really,? Doesn't seem to be heating it that much to me. But I could be wrong.
@@willwinn8559 aluminum doesnt react as bad as steel with temperature fluctuations. But yeah the heat plate for this would work much better.
I was kinda thinking induction hot plate would be pretty good here.
@@PoweredByRedstonecom induction unfortunately only works with ferromagnetic metals.

I thoroughly enjoy watching this channel! You make your own baits and then test them, awesome! Love It!
Ha! you are correct it is 63/75 today where I am in southern Al. Keep up the great bait making

This is a great mold!!!! Thanks for designing!!! Gimme more gimme more gimme more!
Mah boy is upping his game! Nice!! That bait swims soo nice -- I would buy that.
I love how you actually care enough about people’s comments that you heart them it’s so cool that you read them

Dude, this video, it was just pure gold to watch. You are really talented, and those bates came out so beautiful. This is the art side of fishing.
That second pour was awesome looking!!! and by the way that last fishing spot looked awesome too. I would never leave that spot. ha ha
Awesome video Marling Baits !! I am loving the content and the videos Marling Baits !! Keep up the amazing work Marling Baits !! Thanks for the hard work and dedication you put into making these awesome videos for us Marling Baits !! Cheers William !!
Just to let you know it's 77*F in Florida with the low tonight about 60 F. Tomorrows high will be around 85. And yes, I will be in the boat on Orange lake fishing. Love those molds I am gonna have to buy one.
Love your videos keep up the good work and you inspired me to start bait making
Omg ! Something new ! Keep making this kind of videos !
You should get them to make a steelhead worm mould! People would get a lot of use out of that on the west coast.
Just making sure you haven't forgotten about that hinged-jaw bullfrog. That up-and-down action is sure to work when it warms up.
Behind the orange skin....almost sounds like a movie title. Very nice action on that soft bait. Cool mold. 👍🍺🎣
This is the best Marling baits video I've seen today. Great jobs James.
I must say that those are some of the nicest swim baits I have ever seen! Great job!!
You are the best bait maker and you are doing the best I have ever seen just start out of scratch and it look soo great keep up the great work
Those moulds look like incredible value to me. I work in Quality control inspecting machined Pharmaceutical tooling sets for blister packaging, also aerospace components, to 3d models using CMM equipment and let me tell you that this guys work looks amazing from what I see through these videos.

Thanks for the excellent tutorial and honesty.
One of the best videos you have done. Great content and advice!!! Great job!!!
Yess keep em coming I need something to watch in this time of crisis
Stg out of all the fishing channels on RUclips you seem the most in touch with the community especially when u said u got cold I felt that 😂😂
So glad I watched this video. I'm hoping these aluminum molds will work for lead or resin. Of course I want a mold made custom for these materials.
That is so cool and they really like your baits and I support you
Dead on Plastics is all I use now. Great mold and I am getting one. Great job today. I like Chris Jones channel as well.
This is when you know you have really gone up in the world. Keep it up love all of your videos
Been watching your videos and want to get into making my own. Picked up one of the aluminum molds so we will see how it goes.
Love it! 7in could use it a a fluke for striper and or use them on an umbrella rig killer swimbait man!
I feel your pain of not getting outside. I'm in New Jersey and we finally get warmer weather but now we're all getting quarantined with the whole state shut down.
Great work! Your videos and baits inspired me to make some big swimbaits and other cool soft plastics. I'll have to send you some!
Stoked to see it leading to some cool projects for you - Keep it up!
Gotta do it... HUMAN LURE!!!!!!
Louis M you have been asking for awhile. So I think he should do it for you.
MOTO MAN FISHING exactly - on every video - a quick comment just so he knows we still want one 🤪
It's gotta be something like David Hasselhoff XD
In the shape of a scuba diver.😄👍
@@vincenttrigg4521
Lol...
That's a good one 👍
Chest hair and all 😄
What you should do there is make one of your twisty wire swivel jobbers and put that on the beast 8/0 and trail the stinger treble to the center section, and even put the top hook in the plastic in the center segment, and if you're really feeling froggy, a third section with a tail stinger, you could make a little wireform rig for it, I mean at this point, go all out
Have you considered using like a fiber mesh weave to help hold the bait together? Those segment style baits typically do not hold up well at the joints. Once hit a time or two and the fiber weave really strengthens those joints.
was on my way to run errands by the lake with a pier over open water with a walker and my open reel rods in a bag. north east wind came up just as I was standing there waiting for the bus. changed my plans instantly. ssoo much fishing to do later this year is keee-rect.
cant emphasise the importance of good ventilation one good enough to help with over smoking from glitter ingredients!
love the vids
Those are some awesome looking swim baits.
That is the coolest soft bait I've ever seen. Congratulations for doing something you love. You have a new sub.
Back to the first epic bait mold / marling baits collab
i am loving the upload times keep the videos coming!
Hey, just want to say thank you for making these uploads during this time, it keeps me busy all day
How do you like everyone's comments so fast?????
It would be great if he'd respond to comments that fast.
That is EXTREMELY Awesome Broness. Unbelievable!
This was that cool I had to subscribe to see more. That was thoroughly enjoyable to watch you make that.
great video. if you take a hole punch like the ones for paper and punch a circle out of say an empty bleach bottle a pierce the hook through the center of the plastic circle after you put the trailer treble on it will prevent the hook from coming back off the main hook easily. it will snag on the barb
I watch your videos with my chickens. For some reason your voice calms them😆
You always say your not good at explaining things but I understand you every time lmao
13:36 woah, holy crap! I know exactly where you are, I had no idea you were an Iowan native!! Wicked cool
Congratulations on this adventure
Great Video, a plumbers solder mat might save your bench from burning. Maybe you could include some burnt scrapings in the plastic, and next time it's cold, make an 'Arctic char' themed bait ☺
Ok, got a question for ya. What about putting some clear plastic in the eye slots, and pre-placing the eyes before you pour the body? Basically have the eyes buried in plastic instead of gluing them on later? You could do it before the tow halves of the mold are assembled, so you could get the placement pretty easy. Just wondering.
Great looking Swimbait, Nate🤙🏻
That action overlay was amazing! Keep baiting!
i enjoy how real your videos are 👌🏻
Those swimbaits actually look really cool, really well done. I especially like the orange/black one.
I like how you clamp the mold together instead of using the wing nuts that are meant to do that for you
I just recently stumbled accross your channel and your awesome at making baits. I don't make baits but fish pretty much everyday, i live in Iowa anyway if you wanted to I could use your baits catch alot of fish with them and I know people will want them
Awesome stuff buddy! Keep doing what you're doing,good luck this year!
I WANT TO BUY MARLING BAITS SELL THEM
Even for $200 each people would buy them
lookinforthebig1 90 he could make them and put the name of his RUclips channel visible inside, and make a keychain version and a lure versior so even more people would buy.
But then it won’t be fun
I'd really like to see a video or 2 or you going through all your fishing gear and what you think of your rods and reels and whether you'd recommend them or not
I would definitely buy that lure especially one of that same design but about half that size.
I've used that exact vacuum chamber to extract butane out of cannabis concentrate.. cool to see you use it for that also
I 2nd the smaller mold, here in NM not more than a tiger muskie will get after a swimmer that big, and they are only in a handful of our ponds.
You need some sort of Ceramic Tile to stop setting your Workshop on Fire !!!
Great Mold !!! Got to be happy with that !!!
WOW .... Got to get me one of those !!!
Love the new rod set up
Your video was great timing, this Caronavirus sucks, I hate being stuck indoors. I'm away fishing tomorrow! 🎣🎣🎣🎣 On to the next BAIT!
I will definitely be buying one of those in the near future, btw that first colorway was sick!
Great video Marling! Keep it up!
I just started watching your videos, been watching for 3 hours these are awesome videos
I’m also in Alabama, and yes we have had some days lately where it was about 80 👍
What part do you live in, I live in Marshall county, north east, it was 80 two days ago and now it's 38
I like those baits Nate... they look awesome and workable
That is a beautiful mold. I really hope worldsworstfishing will grab one. I’d love to see what he could do with it.
como andas? la verdad que estoy viendo todos y cada uno de tus videos para pasar la cuarentena, y no hay nada mejor que verte trabajando en lo que te gusta! te mando un abrazo grande desde Argentina!!
He said sorry to the vacuum thing at the kind start of the video when he was doing white color and blue flakes😂😂 hes just to nice😂

But that is something you need to experiment with on your own. Also If you had put plugs in that maple bait last video that thing would have been amazing! Do you have a plug cutting bit? If so you could hide those lead spots with wood and that raw wooden bait would have been so perfect. like I said last time that action was AMAZING! That thing looked alive and that beautiful wood grain gave that fish such a great look, the eyes and tail matched perfectly. Keep up the awesome work!
Great job dude, looks amazing!!
Awesome baits! I would recommend taking some insperation from the builders over here in Sweden and try airbrushing your soft plastics. Also use wire stingers with trebbles under the bait for a much better hookup ratio.
That’s such a cool looking bait!
