    If you need an idea I think a betta fish swim bait would be pretty cool

    I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well ruclips.net/user/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.

    Possible tip: I use transparency film (from old school overhead projectors) and a soldering iron to make stencils that work better than paper and can be reused.

      I have been following you for a while now. I’ve always been very blown away by your work. I think I will try my hand at making something. If I make a bait, can I send it to you to try out and have you give feedback? You can call it a “Fan Day!” Video rather than a “One Day!”

    Double your split rings to get the hooks further away from the fins. It will also give them more rotation in the fight.

    • @stevenmccrickard1401

    A White bass Swimbait is an awesome idea. I use a Saltwater Megabass Vatalian that looks like a whitebass when Whitebass are running. The big bass smash it. Your spot on about it being a forage fish, with the numbers of em that move to spawn, Predators go crazy for em.

    Went fishing three times today before I could finish this video. It's still daylight out, so I won't speak too soon, but you sir, are the greatest inspiration to the most enjoyable part of my life. I've spent more time around my family and away from the evils of the world than ever. I let everything change around me like the trees let the river wind around them. I'm not fighting the flow of life anymore. Only looking forward to the next cast at success!

    I can totally relate to just wanting to make the cool bait and not worrying about the camera angles and all that. It definitely is more work to video the whole build; I appreciate you taking the time to video this build and edit it. I loved it and I guess you probably enjoy the revenue too! 😀

  • @swede178
    @swede178 Год назад +1

    Idea for stencil: print your fish on one of those plastic sheets made for overhead projectors (flashback to schools in the 80-90's) and then drill out the pattern or melt with the soldering iron? Should be sharper edges and the it won't soak in the paint like paper.

    @adamb306 Год назад

    Really enjoyed the more introspective VO to start the vid. That stenciling strat probably works better for production lures/1 day builds than something you can take your time and hand paint. For baits like this one its fine to keep the more detailed fins. Good baits catch a lot of fish, great baits catch a lot of fishermen.

    Woohoo!! New video! Wow man, whether intentional or not you could teach the "corporate bait makers" how to make a great wake bait. It's great for it to do its thing from the first handle crank throughout the retrieve no matter the angle of the rod tip, distance of cast, and line type or size. Also, to have different size baits but no matter the size have them heavy enough to cast but yet still bouyant and super wakers. That bait would be petfect for our night time topwater walleye in late winter/early spring here in East Tennessee. It's Super fun!!! Thanks for the videos!!

  • @jessegarcia4806
    @jessegarcia4806 Год назад

    They make clear plastic sticker material for stencils on cars. It’s made to stencil flames or graphics on a car, but it’s sticky on one side and plastic. I think maybe burning hole into the plastic would be easier and it’s a sticker so easy to stick on the bait and seal itself to the bait and have a clean no overspray finish. They make it triple layer double sided too, so you could actually make your pattern, peel one side, paint the left side of the bait, then take it off peel the opposite side of the sheet and paint the other side of the bait with the exact same stencils, the sheet itself becomes a mirror image of itself when you peel the opposite side so you have a left and a right side, painting cars you want matching flames on both sides so it’s a double stencil, Good luck pal thanks for the videos.

I changed over the pec and dor fins to medium blend worm blend instead of hard lexan. I use a a thin piece of plastic to wedge those fins in. Works like a champ and hookup went up exponentially. Btw yours looks way better than my lure. You had to have had to hide behind a tree to tie that thing on lol 😂.

    Go for fruitier tasting peppers in the coffee, jalapeno are kind of vegetal --like bells; I'd think scotch bonnets, bird chili, thai chili, some of the really fruity special hybrids (like pineapple or peach aji) out there may also get tossed into coffee too. Cayenne is very berry-fruit tasting, almost like cherries believe it or not lol.
    Another weird thing is to take dark, kind of heavy tasting coffee and brew it with a bag of earl grey tea, it's an old british thing which is surprisingly good.
    Coffee fruit itself is really odd, fresh it kindof tastes like the smell of soysauce and earth mixed with cranberries.
