Nice lure building video. I like it much.

[@rRichmoo7]

Leaves the most imporant part out of building a glide jerk bait, weighing and balancing. LOL.

[@lookerslures]

Plenty of videos out there showing how to weigh a glide bait I don't really want to be messing about with a camera messing about with molten lead plus the video is long enough without showing me pouring lead in and then drilling bits out till it sits how I want it

Amazing craftsmanship pal,looking forward to see these in action 👍🏼

[@lookerslures]

Thanks, I will be giving them a chuck on Monday, just apllied the last layer of epoxy so they should be cured and ready to get some teeth marks in them.

Your lures a bang on mate keep up the good work buy what wood you using

[@lookerslures]

Mostly pine, oak and beech

Great lure. I want to start making lures, I think I'm going to go for something like this in the video for my first ever lure. What wood would you suggest?

[@lookerslures]

I have used all kinds of wood but for your first lurw I would suggest pine or some kind of softwood as it's more buoyant, most of the lakes I fish are quite shallow so i want a slow sinking lure it might take more lead to get it to sink but I find it easier than hardwoods to balance as some hardwoods only take the slightest bit of lead to sink you want to test sink your lure in a sink or container with all of your hardware, hooks split rings ect once you have sealed the wood.

Hi mate do you just super glue the treble holders in? (don't know the actual name lol) obviously it works but can just picture them coming out lol especially the one the trace attaches to if I was to be stuck in a snag or a good sized pike lol

[@lookerslures]

i usually use thick superglue or 5 minute epoxy the wood i use is very porus usually, never had one come loose yet and had fish to 20 plus on them just make sure its a tight fit before fitting and glueing

[@noname-un4cu]

@@lookerslures okay thanks mate yeh I thought about using the gorilla epoxy glue ment to be strong as shit lol

[@massimobez5908]

great!!!

[@ibefishingtv7574]

This is awesome!!! What kind of glue did you use for the screw eyes?

[@lookerslures]

Thank, In this video I used a medium thickness super glue I also use five minute epoxy never had a problem with either application and had fish to over 25lb on them

[@ibefishingtv7574]

@@lookerslures Ok great! Thanks alot for the info.

[@omarespinoza3115]

Was the size of the wire

Hi mate great vidoe going to have a go at making one my self! How do you balance the lure? And make sure it sinks correctly ect

[@lookerslures]

I have a koi pond and usually balance my lures in there. I pour my lead with a lead pot and then take a drill bit with me when balancing in the pond to remove lead I also balance with the hooks attached and setup on a rod with a leader to get the desired action I pour lead in holes either end of the lure to get a wide gliding action you can just add weight to one part of the belly section but the glide isn't as stable if you weight 2 sections closer to the middle of the belly you will get a more erratic tight glide have fun every wooden lure has a slightly different action that's why I love making them so much enjoy hope you catch a few on your lure good luck 👍

[@noname-un4cu]

@@lookerslures thanks for the reply mate will take that on board! Could you do a vidoe similar to this one but step by step so I can follow the steps and understand the steps in making a lure ect? Cheers mate

[@lookerslures]

@@noname-un4cu yes, i was going to start making a new video in the next couple of days will go a bit more in-depth with each step.

[@noname-un4cu]

Yeh that's great mate will help alot! What type of wood do you use mate?
