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.
Excellent video. I followed this video and the other one to make the rig complete and it worked like a charm. Way more fun to do it yourself than to buy these rigs from the shop. Now i can determine what hooks i use, what kind of color (ribbons) and thickness of the line. I already caught a bunch of mackerel with them. The feeling it gives when you get the first bites on your home-made lures is something special :) I'm going to check out more videos on your channel.
it depends,(sorry) i use thirty five pound for a few reasons: it is springy and the lures are less likely to tangle around the man line, it is strong enough to deal with the rocky,snaggy, seaweedy places I fish, it easy to tie and also i can cast weights up to 3 1/2 ounces without fear of the line snapping. Holographic ribbon is normally plastic and waterproof, i have seen some made from paper. I have recently been fishing with 6lb line using a drop shot rig. What are you fishing for?
i had never heard of bird repellent tape until you mentioned it, it may work i am not sure it is a thick as the ribbon but give it try if you have some, it looks great cheers
Excellent videos mate. Could you give any advice on why one of the ribbons is pointing up and the other down, they don't sit side by side. And no matter what I try I cannot get them like yours. The first lot I made I put nail varnish between them to stick them together. Would they even need to be together do you think? Thanks in advance.
Hi. Yes I have tried overlapping them a little bit, half way like yours and the almost completely overlapped and cannot get it right. Just thinking....... It would maybe help a lot if the ribbon was flat, it's curved with being rolled up in roll.
One downside i now noticed after having made several of these and having fished with them. The ribbon i bought (2 different types even) are made out of 2 layers which delaminate after a while.
Paul, I am looking to start making my own sabiki rigs. I am tired of getting cut off by spanish and blues. I am thinking of using your technique, but with flurocarbon line for better abrasion resistance. Have you tied any with fluro, or make them with it?
I did tie them for a while flurocarbon of the same weight about 35lb. What i liked about the fluro was the stiffness, i went with it for a while because i was fishing in crystal clear water. The reason i started making my own was because a lot of the rigs i bought where just falling apart or i was losing hooks to fish without teeth, so i bought expense rigs from leading companies and they were often no better. I found my own homemade rigs lasted for trip after trip.Recently a guy from the southern part of the uk has written to me because one of his homemade rigs has landed so many fish and of good weights that he has been showing charter boat captains how to tie them.
Hello amigo.. I miss yours videos... I don't see new one from long time. You made very good job and very interesting ideas. Regards from Cancún México.

I was checked today, and unfortunately I can't find it in ASDA, TESCO or Greeting Card shops or any supermarkets. But good news, I found it in the HOBBY CRAFT only. Hobbycraft 60M Curling Holographic Silver £1.00
These are great tutorials, finding them very useful for making my own Mackerel lures, I'm going to try them tonight in Helvick Head in Waterford, Ireland. I never thought to cover the knot with nail varnish until I saw this. these are quick to make and look as good as any lures that you buy in the shops. I used bird repellent ribbon instead of the ribbon that you have, but it should still do the same job.
I usually make my own lures and use a bird repellent tape. It's very strong and as it's plastic lasts a long time. I've aught plenty of Mackerel with it.

8 years ago wow...great demo mate.

great work. wow! 7 years ago.
Great video man thank you. I found these to be deadly.
6 years ago Wow! Time flies when you're fishing This is still my go to channel for all great fishing ideas Great Work, Well Done
i had never heard of bird repellent tape until you mentioned it, it may work i am not sure it is a thick as the ribbon but give it try if you have some, it looks great cheers
try looking fro curling ribbon, holographic or not, in the uk it is available from greeting card shops and asda, tesco, supermarkets
It work
Excellent videos mate.
Could you give any advice on why one of the ribbons is pointing up and the other down, they don't sit side by side. And no matter what I try I cannot get them like yours.
The first lot I made I put nail varnish between them to stick them together.
Would they even need to be together do you think?
Thanks in advance.
mikey4996 I am not sure, did you overlap them?
Hi.
Yes I have tried overlapping them a little bit, half way like yours and the almost completely overlapped and cannot get it right.
Just thinking....... It would maybe help a lot if the ribbon was flat, it's curved with being rolled up in roll.
maybe sticking some in book for while to flatten them
The salt water angler copy you gave you know credit cheat no class
btw my ribbon i bought is the party balloon curling ribbon but it looks exactly like yours :)!
no the ribbon is made of plastic it lasts a very long time even after a lot of use.
thanks
hi , thanks for the great video. but my only question is what is the name of the clitter color strip and you should buy it from pls, great video.
it is just called holographic ribbon
Magnifique où peut-on trouver la bobine de couleur multiple
One downside i now noticed after having made several of these and having fished with them. The ribbon i bought (2 different types even) are made out of 2 layers which delaminate after a while.
Hi Paul Adams, where can i buy that holographic ribbon that you use to make a sabiki rigs? Can't find them at wallmart.
+Sonny Colina amazon, ebay, card shops, craft stores, balloon shops, it is used mainly when wrapping presents
99 ,cent Store
Try a craft or hobby store. Also check on line

This is genius! I was looking all over for a tutorial on how to make a shiny sabiki rig. Had to do a bit of digging before I found this.
Thanks for all the videos. This one has given me some ideas on how to make my own holographic teasers and glass minnows for fluke fishing.
Thanks I caught makeral and pallock with this thank you
SHOW!!!!
do u sell these?
No, i just make them for my own use
