I'm always a little bit surprised what folks comment about on my videos. I thought for sure I would get more comments and questions about the wire harness I put into the lure. I'm pretty sure it's a unique technique. At least I haven't seen any other lure builder do it this way.
You did a great job showing it, so I'm not surprised, regarding your blade issue, consider a buck tail in the appropriate colors!
Probably metallic
Marling baits uses them🤙 not original
A collaboration between you and Marling Baits would be epic!
The way you show it there's really not much to ask. You do a good job of explaining by showing, at least for me.
I love the precision eyeballing
I've had other BPM baits ruclips.net/user/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 before and they've pretty much always came through for me with the suskie smallies here and even with the walleye and pike, but I realized I didn't have an "in-between" pattern so this junebug one fills that role in no problem. it pairs up magnificently with a junebug Zoom Z-craw Jr that was trimmed a couple millimeters before the hook slots and rigged sideways for that fatter panfish side profile while still being a nice'n'compact presentation, a real power-finesse bait. Hell, it was so pretty I even bothered to fotosketch the pic into a watercolor painting image just to show you it's beauty! Even the blades are really well made, sure, they're not of Hildebrandt-level exquisiteness but look at the bead's reflection on the colorado blade, definitely well-made! The only "problem" spot it had was a bald spot in the skirt but it was nothing that I couldn't easily fix with a but of tuggin'n'shiftin' with the strands for a couple of seconds, besides that it is pretty minty!
It's the simple things that make me smile.... kneading/piping in a small zip lock bag, awesome!
That epoxy piping bag is an awesome trick! So many times such a mess could have been saved
Totally!
Based on the earlier posting I figured it would have a spinning blade on a swivel as built, but when I saw the video thumbnail I was like, "Wow! He engineered the hell out of that puppy by fixing the blade on a pintle; genius!"
And now after seeing the lure in action I'm thinking that's actually a good idea to keep the blade in the same position away from the belly hook. It shouldn't be too difficult using the same technique as the line attachment on the lip of your
deep diving lure but with two attachments to accept a pin.
Inspired to give it a try! Thanks!
This is why your channel is awesome! Unique baits, ideas, and of course… a bit of engineering? Love it man! Great build!
I appreciate that!
I am an chemical engineer and a fisherman. Good luck friend.
A jointed lure with that front shape and a back section that fits up tight behind and under the front might be really cool. You might be able to put a Johnson silver minnow type of spoon down there.
I live in Saskatchewan, am an avid fisher and absolutely love targeting large pike. That lure looks like a slayer. I like the idea of a single hook with the willow leaf. Excellent work. I would give that baby a work out up North here!
18:30 that f'd me up, thought i was having a flashback xD Nice lure tho!
That bullhead… 😄 Those things are more aggressive than I ever expected. I’ve caught two on spoons of all things.
I’m really digging those violet speckles. They just work really well with the red eye and yellow and green body.
I am happy that I came across this gem of a channel.
Thank you so much.
That is one of the most unique baits I've ever seen. Sweet swimming action and the flash off that blade is killer. The red eyes were my choice too. I was afraid the spinner might get hung on the bottom treble, but a fix is easy. Paint job looked really nice.👍👍
Thank you.
I liked the silver eyes but the red works.
Loved that idea putting the epoxy in the bag 👌
Just a thought... put a through wire front to back, and put a prop with some beads in place of the blade. Paint job was fire!
I thought about that but, not really the affect I was looking for....thank you and cheers.
As always totally gobsmacked at your ingenuity. You have encouraged so many of us to experiment. You get to point with great explanations of very technical stuff. Thanks again 🎣🎣
Thank you...it's satisfying to hear.
Need to see this guy engineering something for Marling Baits
Franco that is a really interesting design. I go to Canada every year and fish for smallmouth and Pike in the Georgian Bay. I may have to design one for myself to test our on the Pike. I did make a Lazy Ike lure with the Shark Fin. I will post a picture of it when it is finished with clear coat. Keep up the good work and inspiration. Happy Easter.
Very cool!
wild looking lure, and I thought the shrooms finally hit, but it was just your even wilder transitions
It takes a while...but the shrooms will hit, and then you'll really see the magic of the lure 😄
I liked how it looked with red.
Really like this lure! I think all the time how the hell to come up with something different and you did it. I have been using your weight volume density formula for quite awhile and it eliminates most of the trial and error with weight and balance so thanks for sharing this again. I am glad you reminded everyone about accounting for the wieght of clear coat and paint. Thanks for all the info it makes life easier for us non engineers that might not think of this stuff on our own. 😊😊
Thank you for watching and for this nice comment. Cheers.
This lure is insane! Nice work!
Thanks!
every eye color goes good with the lure
It was a tough choice.
Bring that lure up here to Michigan and we’ll give it a try, lol
Love your work, Thanks for sharing.
Great Catfish lure!
This is such an interesting approach to lure making. Thanks for sharing
to me you should connect the end of the metal jig to the top part of the lure so it always stays orizzontal so it can flash better and it will make a lot of vibrations
I made an extremely similar bait last month 👍🏻. I used a buzz blade to weigh the belly! It works amazingly! And I just love your design and your way of thinking! Great work my friend
Thanks
Unique ! Great job.
Great video, great lure. I was happy you chose the red eye, too. I am a pike-o-phile; I chase them all over. I might suggest a single hook on both front and back with a 5-6 inch split tail pork rind on the back and maybe even a stinger treble back 3-4 inches. I think if you turned up the lateral edges of your blade in opposite directions it would flutter more? I love the action of pike on a stop and then jerk retrieve and think this would be irresistible retrieved in such a manner. Only down side; well big pike chew up lures, and Dang! This is just to beautiful to imagine being toothed up. Thanks!
what a way of professional practice that you have you do not have to buy artificial lures cordial greetings from Costa Rica
Last time I was in Costa Rica I left a box of my handmade lures with some young kids that were fishing near the river mouth where I was staying. Pura Vida!
That is an excellent looking lure and I may just have to copy it one day soon
It's like a cross of Marling Baits and Bill Nye.
Awesome channel ++
Thanks, I'm happy to be compared to either one of those guys.
Yes! Perfect description.
Kool!!!! This I like. I going to try to make it later too.
Have fun!
Awesome as always!!! I’ll note that when you’re epoxying the wire in you can use hot glue to “dam” the resin up, then remove after it dries. I think this thing would be killer on snakeheads at times
very genius senior I like the idea and the video is very good, once in the direct test you can get fish, the calculation is very prestigious, senior
Than you
@@EngineeredAngler Thank you again senior, the knowledge is very valuable for us
Very cool lure
That's Just great Franco! Love it! Good job!! 👍🏻
Thanks.
Great work, nice lure I love it!
Great work. Looks so good.
Catfish killer bait!!! Love it!!!
Very cool 🔥
you and MARLING BAITS should do a colab video.... itll be DOPE!!!!
Great to watch new lure design/concept unfold... great job... hope to see more in the future👍👍👍
Thanks, will do!
I like this one a lot! Nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great Shape looking pretty good 🐟
Nice job! I like it!
That body shape with a prop instead of blade. Blade would not work right for hooks. Shorter blad would work better. Great idea. Different for sure
I live in a northern pike wonderland in North Dakota and would buy that lure!
Being in Michigan, and an avid pike angler; I would dedicate a rod to this thing. Amazing work.
Thanks
I've always wanted to build one similar, nice job as always 👍
Loved the shape and the movement in the water, would love to see how a it fishes in salt water and for pike fishing. Think it would be a good,unusual shaped lure for fishing for our UK sea bass, but now only use single books with the barbs crushed, easier for catch and release.
Really cool color combination
Top video. Great idea. Absolutely creative and lots of good tips as always.
I once drilled a hole in the center of a normal lure body and implanted a 4-blade plastic propeller from model aircraft construction. This was led through the whole body by a thin brass tube. But I could never get the propeller to turn properly by fishing that lure by regular speed.
The shape of your lure seems to be more functional.
Very nice worth the wait. As was mentioned previously you might want to try a Colorado or Indiana blade just to see what that looks like.
Turn the front hook 180 degrees so the interfering hook points down
That paint job was sweet.
Love this lure, I think I'm going to make one with a bill on it. Nice job thanks for the inspiration
Go for it!
Awesome Dude!! 2 thumbs up
Thanks
Just found your channel and really enjoying the videos! I make bucktails and spinners out of wire and beads but your easy explanations make me confident I can try to work with wooden lures as well. Keep it up!
Thanks
Very different and very unique might have to have a go at one for our Murray cod they hit big vibration lures. Keep up the good work 🎣😎👍
Go for it!
The hatchet plug!
Very beautiful and unique lure reminds me of a moon fish or something like a disc shape fish, i really prefer the gold eyes.
Just a small suggestion try to put the blade between two swivels so the blade remains parallel to the body in any situation, this way it can produce the flash spin and not get jammed by the treble hook. I really enjoy your video with all the details and information that you provide.
Fantastic, thanks for your ideas, non replied but i recerch it.
That is one nice lure
Thanks
this is a really cool lure. you got your self another subscriber.
Awesome, thank you!
I may have missed it, What kind of wood are you using for this really great working/looking lure. Thanks for sharing your engineering designs. Appreciate the math explanation also. Good fishing to you.
It was a piece of camphor... Thanks for watching. Cheers
Great action, always enjoy your videos
Thanks 👍
That's so sweet I'm making one
Have fun!
Very cool plug, and nice action. I like lordofthetemps idea of running the wire through. I tried that on a plug, but couldn't get the blade right. Still sitting on my bench...
That looks really cool. What kind of wood did you use ? What if you used a wire that goes from the where the swivel is to the tail and you used a long narrow diamond shaped blade. On that wire then it would spin and not tangle up with the hook.
Could you try with the line tie on top like a lipless crankbait? I would think that would make it easier to fish with the blade moving between the two hooks. Might avoid the hang-ups and get that spinner moving better.
You could, but you would get no swimming action and the blade would tend to be pushed towards the belly hook by the water flow. The truth is that there an infinite number of variations on this idea that could work. I had a vision for this specific style with a body that would give a swimming action on a steady retrieve but...that's just me. Thanks for the ideas. Cheers.
I liked the red eye.
I think a few tweaks and it'll be perfect. Good lure design.
Thank you.
Awesome Id love to see a smaller version i bet it would be a killer small mouth lure
If the rings are drying out try the Kobe oil they make or make sure not to clean with rubbing alcohol
I think you're right...I use some harsh stuff to clean the gun and it's messing the o-rings up.
I’d do red for pike…..but you’ve inspired me to make a Tarpon trolling lure, and replace the spinner with a large purple and white buck tail, and another , maybe fire tiger pattern for the rear , and add a short shallow diving bill, because the St. Lucie, where I fish is quite shallow…..anyway… love the design….I’d go red for pike.
That sounds great. I used to live in Jenson Beach...I now the area, good luck
Should be perfect for fresh water fishing but for saltwater maybe need deference colour type or maybe need to kind a bit different shape... excellent invention bro
As I thought. The inner-spinner (copyright that). Although I thought the spinner would have a shaft to spin on.
Me too😁
That's Awesome man. I know where you can get into some serious diy pike fishing in Michigan if you're interested. That will for sure catch some serious pike.
Thanks
You sir are bad ass
It's "o'fishal", I am going to try to 3d print my own version.
you need spinnerbait swivel on the first swivel
Excellent!
But....
If there is a large fish behind the back hook, the wire will straighten from the weight and fly out of the slot.
It would take a massive pull. And I sill would have the fish.
@@EngineeredAngler ))))))...
Superbe ! Excellente création !
thank you
liked it as a chrome paint job would have just added scale pattern
I don't think I've ever seen a similar type lure before. That's an unique design. I wonder if you could get that to glide from side to side? I'm thinking that might make a good muskie jerkbait if it could glide.
Hello, I’m new to this channel, and I have to say that this is my favorite channel out there! I’m a STEM nerd and fishing enthusiast as well, so these videos are right up my alley. You are such a cool guy too! These videos are not only educational, but they are funny! I love following along and I will definitely work my way through all of the videos. I’m happy you have so many uploaded already :)
Are you getting stickers back on your store at any point? I’m going to pick up a shirt and I’d love to get a few stickers as well.
Thanks for making these videos fun and making the audience feels included in your projects!
Thank you so much. It's so nice to hear that others enjoy my approach to lure making. The stickers should be....but I'll check.
That smaller blade should work perfectly keeping out the hook
I tied it...seems to hang up too. I modified the hook and it works much better.
it's ofFISHal - catfish like spinner belly pike lures
...Now for something completely different 😀 Interesting design Franco, wobbling action combined with a spinner! Think that the body is interfering with the water flow to the willow leaf blade and dampening its action. I use a lot of spinner rigs with different blade styles for walleyes, found that the willow leaf spins with a narrow swing and requires a fast forward speed to start spinning. A small wide swinging colorado blade might work better as they are quick to start spinning. Think that mounting the spinner blade on a wire shaft might be better than a swivel (revision 2?). What about twisting a 3/8 x 3 inch piece of sheet metal into a spiral to create a rotating flasher? Cheers!
I think it would have worked better if you used one through the body single wire and allow the spinner blade , no swivel to rotate around the wire
I think you should invest into a GoPro for your fishing shots, do a chest mount shot would be cool
I get the underwater shots with the go pro.
@@EngineeredAngler that makes sense, It’s my first video, but I’d love to see some of you fish
I challenge you to engineer a lure for halibut in the San Francisco Bay Area
In my opinion, a heavier spoon style spinner would do better. Also, it needs to weigh more in salt water to account for the difference in buoyancy.
Hello, how are you, friend, my name is Mounir from Morocco. I am a subscriber to your channel. Thank you for the content. Welcome to Morocco. I hope to visit you in your lab. I like your work. I hope to visit you. Finally, accept my full thanks 🇲🇦🇺🇸
Thanks and welcome
I was really impressed by your working out the overall weight balance until you removed more wood by drilling ....you got soooo lucky🤣🤣🤣🤣
The removal of the wood is only an issue if you're trying to get the lure to suspend...removing wood only makes it a tiny bit more negatively buoyant than my original calculations. Do the math😄 Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Cheers.
Thats a great design! Where can I place my order😁
I like the idea. what if you drilled a through hole from line tie to rear hook hanger and put a willow blade that would go around the bar(maybe this could avoid the treble hook from catching. BTW I like the red eye the most too.
Yea, I thought about having wire as an axel...that's a good idea. For now I think I'll cut the top hook off the treble.
