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!

Hey, great video but could you possibly make a few videos of you actually catching fish on the lures you have made. That would be great if you could. Thanks.
very cool, but why did you use copper wire instead of only using the solder and epoxy that in place? the solder would bend much easier and you wouldn't need as much as the lead solder is heavier than the copper.
This is lead free solder, which is very expensive and not as dense as the copper, the copper is just under 9x denser than water, the solder 7.25x denser than water and lead would be about 11x. Cheers
I LOVE IT!!!! Thanks for the instruction on how to add a weight to a hook as I cannot but that king of hook in town. Many thanks indeed mate. How did you get the colour into the silicone?
+Michał Stankiewicz (shaitis) i do not think it is getting hot enough for long enough as the melting point of the solder is very low, half of that of lead which is used to make jigheads
I like your idea. its awesome. how do I measure for weight with hook so I want crappie go craziest and bit lure with weight. do you have info for like toolbox for all tools that I can put all stuff into tool box and feel neat when I am in mood for hobby I like to pull out drawer and using tools and lure plastic
Hey Paul I understand you reuse and remelt your plastics I was kind of wondering about the scent on them. Plastics are supposed to be kept at approximately room temperature so would you remelt ones that may be sun-damaged? I only ask because I have read fish can smell burnt plastic if they have been exposed to the sun for to long as well as deformed baits. Thanks, MWFS
i am probably the worst person to ask about this as i live in the uk and we think we are having a heat wave if the temperature gets up to room temperature. I think sun damage would probably have more to do with ultra violet light damage, i remember when i used to sell pvc products for outdoors this used to a big problem and would cause plastics to become brittle. When remelting the plastics i find they loose some flexibility this could just be a loss of plasticizer from the pvc,i find old baits stiffen up over time. I do not remelt baits i have scented my, last experience with this was not great and it took a long time for the smell to dissipate. Smell wise tend not to add scent when i make the lures, In the summer months when i fishing with some speed to my retrieves i do not add any scent as i find fish tend to be chasing them down. In the winter i add things like thia fish sauce or fish oil to a small tub and soak the lures before i go fishing and dip them from time to time when fishing. I have had pike take the lures like dead bait off the bottom, i remember stopping to talk to a friend and finding after 5 minutes of lure lying motionless on the bottom it was picked up by a pike, which was really a big surprise. Cheers
+Paul Clarke my brother is an electrical engineer and my father is auto electrician, my excuse is that as a child I was never allow to play with their tools. thanks
I think you should just leave it at copper and epoxy considering it is the main source of weight and heating a hook can weaken it. Also if you make a clear minnow it would show through in a cool way
the solder has very low melt point two thirds of lead so ever though i am using a small torch and keeping it moving the temperature i am guessing is about equivalent to casting a lead jig head on a hook. I do use epoxy as well which give that nice copper finish. cheers
I live in the UK, but i guess there are a few US companies that would supply Canada, like lureparts.com makelure.com, i would ask that question on one of the forums on tackle underground, i suspect there will be a few Canadians better able to answer that question, thanks
once again brilliant work! i´m realy enjoy to look you´re videos! perhaps you´ve time and fun to make a tutorial about building wooden swimbait?!? i need some inspiration from a genius instrukter like you! i realy lucky if you think about it! ;) nice greets from germany my friend! have a nice day
You don't really add color per say. When you make a lure let say out of liquid pvc. You have to add dye to what color you want to pattern then you mix it color dye you chose then to put it in the mold.
When you work on a mold you try to look at what color you want once you know how it gonna look like you can add gliter or any other flashy type material and add it to the mixer before your pour the mold. The stripes can be drawn on using a fish friendly marker.
Dought you read these comments but maybe someone will read abs hell me. I hv o e way but it adds a extra layer I don’t like the dip line. After I make my soft body jig baits, what type of paint can I use to creat the big white dot and the littke black dot pupil inside the white eye abs it stay on. Only way I know how is to dip jig into hot liquid I made the bodies with. But it adds another layer but maybe be only way to keep them on thanks
Could watch your videos all day. Mesmerising stuff!!!
Love the idea of the treble as a stinger to add more chance of hooking into a pike. Genius
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.

Great idea about that little stinger treble on the plastic worm hook , Paul .
Nice tutorial as usual , ...cheers , Dieter

Don't take this the wrong way but your voice is so soothing to me
cheers
i want to see you fish more!! love your videos
Good product. Caught my first bass on these
your mrs must be so proud of you mucking up the microwave like that!
such an easy and effective way to make lures.
someone once said a women's place is in the kitchen, I say liberate them so we can get some baits cooked up.
anyone else just watch these because they enjoy watching Paul make crap, even tho they have no intention of making it themselves? :-D
Make crap ? No chance quality lures them
greetings from mexico merida yucatan, super excellent as always your videos and editing and what steps you describe it ...... thanks
Great video, big like 😁👍🍀
Nice guys👍👍
Hey, great video but could you possibly make a few videos of you actually catching fish on the lures you have made.
That would be great if you could.
Thanks.
Ok but whats the special hands free tool it looks so neat
very cool, but why did you use copper wire instead of only using the solder and epoxy that in place? the solder would bend much easier and you wouldn't need as much as the lead solder is heavier than the copper.

ah ok, thank you.

saludos de baja california sur me gustan mucho los vídeos y e aprendido mucho
Sergio Andrade gracias
i like your hands free divice.
thanks
Very nice !
I like that a lot .. I better subscribe . looks like you do it all.. Thank you ...
thanks
Once again awesome video, just 1 question, arent you weakening hook while using heat on it ?
+Michał Stankiewicz (shaitis) i do not think it is getting hot enough for long enough as the melting point of the solder is very low, half of that of lead which is used to make jigheads

thanks for the video but a tip for you electrical solder already has flux in the core so that will save you a few pennies
+Paul Clarke my brother is an electrical engineer and my father is auto electrician, my excuse is that as a child I was never allow to play with their tools. thanks
would you be willing to make me a special lure that I can't get any more if I send you one for a fee of course? Thanks
sorry, but i just don't get the time to make lures for other people, at the moment i have very few left myself, but thanks for asking
I liked y was very good l hope l can learn
I think you should just leave it at copper and epoxy considering it is the main source of weight and heating a hook can weaken it. Also if you make a clear minnow it would show through in a cool way

Really cool
Hello Paul, you can tell me how the stuff with which you make the forms
i use rtv silicone to make the moulds, and liquid pvc to make the lures
EXELENTE MASTER EXELNTE UN ABRAZO ¡¡¡
Lubię łowić delikatnie, stąd uważam, że są to dobre pomysły. Pozdrawiam.
thank you
Nice! Whats the weight of the hook after adding the copper?
3.5 grams, thanks
Hi Paul I live in Canada and I'm just wondering where you can buy the plastisol so I can start making lures of my own.
Thanks
I live in the UK, but i guess there are a few US companies that would supply Canada, like lureparts.com makelure.com, i would ask that question on one of the forums on tackle underground, i suspect there will be a few Canadians better able to answer that question, thanks
Nice lure..
Hey Paul, do you think your able to make a crank bait?
i did a vid about making a crank bait, it is a two parter on my channel, cheers
excuse me, which one is the name of plastic you use? or what type of plastic you use? Thank you!
Raymundo Ortiz there is normally a link in the video description to a list of tools and materials, thanks
What would be the end weight result for that? Thanks
Hi yo are smart man good luck
what material you are using for plastic lures?
what is the name of the plastic you use to make the lures
+Nehoray Levi liquid pvc or plastisol as it is often called
oh thank you:) fast answer
So sweet
great share,,,thank
what the name of the silicone to make the fish not the base just the fish what silicone can you welp me please?
I don't think he used silicone he used liquid pvc I think
once again brilliant work! i´m realy enjoy to look you´re videos! perhaps you´ve time and fun to make a tutorial about building wooden swimbait?!?
i need some inspiration from a genius instrukter like you!
i realy lucky if you think about it! ;)
nice greets from germany my friend! have a nice day
at some point i am going to have to get back to wood, but i am a bit lost in plastic at the moment. Thanks
What do you put into shape?
What size of hook do you use??
Barry Lawijt I think these are both 3/0 i sometimes go up to 5/0 with larger baits, thanks
Thanks for you fast answer.
***** what the silicone you use to make the vinil fish im portuguese and in my country i can find the perfect silicone =(
That's a lot of work for one lure
Catch one on your own made lure is better than 10 on shop bought. So doesn't matter how long it takes to make
why gas and not soldering Iron?
What's scientific name of the plastic which put on microwave ?
this is liquid pvc it is mixed with other compounds but these are not given on the bottle
can u make a video with bloopers, please?
how do you add the colors to your lures
You don't really add color per say. When you make a lure let say out of liquid pvc. You have to add dye to what color you want to pattern then you mix it color dye you chose then to put it in the mold.
Noah Popudnyk but how do you add things like stripes
When you work on a mold you try to look at what color you want once you know how it gonna look like you can add gliter or any other flashy type material and add it to the mixer before your pour the mold. The stripes can be drawn on using a fish friendly marker.
whats the name of that hands free device?
These are called `helping hands` i would try Harbour Freight, Radio Shack in U.S.
thanks! I love your videos btw
Nice
What diameter is the wire please
