    Having fished multiple s in different sizes and colors, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 this is by far my favorite. One thing to be aware of is the sided willow blade. One side is silver and the other is the green/orange shown. This is not bad, just unconventional. In terms of fishing, I have found the lure works just fine without a tail like a craw or shad. That addition is up to you. Also, the hook part where you attach the swivel snap or tie the line is a problem on baits these days, since it's able to slide up and down. However this lure seems to be tight enough that that doesn't happen often, and you can solve it by putting a thin slice of medical tube over the hook before attaching the line. Like others have said, it's really magic on a good windy day.

    Your research is a good approach to this art. In the 70's super glue was around but we use to mix araldite, collect the biggest grass hoppers we could find put just a drop on their back without sticking their wings together, and fasten # 2 trout hook, let dry, get the longest rod you could find, attach to the line get down to the water and bounce on the surface, trout love live insects. Your appointment to detail is extraordinary, fish have exceptional sight. If you could just get the wings to flap.

  • @RocketsFishingAdventures
    @RocketsFishingAdventures 6 лет назад +2

    I really enjoy watching the process and seeing the lure evolve. Cicada imitations are a gun lure for Bass in Australia. They normally have hinged wings that close on the cast and open when you retrieve. The Tiemco Soft Shell Cicada is one of the best.

    I don't know if you see notifications on old videos, but this would be a great time to bring back this idea, maybe with some new twists, like buzzing/vibrating, or micro sized.
    This summer the Midwest is going to see the overlap of two major cicada broods, both the 13 year and 17 year are going to arrive at the same time, with parts of Illinois and Iowa being in the zone that will get both.

    Generally with water based airbrush paints I've always found multiple light, diluted coats are best if you want even colour or controlled fades but there are some cool effects possible with laying it on thick. I experimented with an interesting finish ages ago which involved laying down a base coat of bright metallic silver then shooting a quick layer of clear coat over the top, once this had dried you shot a full wet coat of black before dabbing at it with a scrunched up plastic carrier bag to lift some of the black and expose the silver underneath in a kind of cool marble pattern. It's a pretty cool pattern as this stage but if you then give it several coats of a candy style paint (ie. a tinted lacquer) and then clear coat it looks amazing in the sunlight

  • @x31omega
    @x31omega 4 года назад

    Not sure if you read new comments on older videos.
    Just some advice. When you carve the veins on the wings add your paint while the protective film is still on it. Let paint dry add second coat, let dry peel off film. It will keep the wing crystal clear. Great vids been enjoying watching you work.

    neat cicada. when fishing those type baits I always use a special knot. first tie a open knot run the string though the eye and than back though the open knot than make another knot and bring both together. should have a ring size open knot that forms. this way when you pull and twitch the bait it will go from left to right. making it preform great. very strong knot.

    Cicadas don't eat tree sap from the bark area, but from the roots when they burrow under the ground. We have ours every years, and they haven't damaged our trees. The sounds in the summer are part of the South, and I would miss them.

  • @grounder7572
    @grounder7572 6 лет назад

    put the hook on the front of the bate and tie off on the back as you pull it the wings will grab the water and it should start to flip and flop. if it dosent flip and flop making the wings jointed will help with that, but were they are fixed to the body you can fish it like a popper , another way i fish something like this is to do a very fast but small twitching motions as it floats to make alot of ripples around the bate this works best close to any vegetation... this can be a very versatile bate.

    @rchilsstandardpoodles8029 3 года назад

    The cicada have wings out to sides when it lands in water. Then they kinda buzz across to top of the water. The way your wings are could make fish miss the hook. Either way, excellent job! Love the way it looks so real...

      Yeah they're on correctly! You can see him looking at cicada pics on the internet and you can tell they go that way. You probably assume they look upside down due to seeing other types of insects where the longer bit is on the top of the wing. These wings have to fold under another bit, so they have the smaller bits on top. ^^

  • @Rmnorton81
    @Rmnorton81 4 года назад
