The spray silver plating you used in a previous video looked amazing. A few years ago there were two McClarin F-1 cars that were done using the spray silver plating method for several years.
Good morning. Kinda proud to be the first to like/comment! Lol. Great video as usual…besides the weekend itself, you make Friday’s even better to wake up to. 🙂 Thank you again for sharing your skills!
@@EngineeredAngler - I've shared some of your builds with my brother, don't know if you can tell. Also, my wife was watching a local Florida news channel and saw a report whereby the DNR folks are not going to open redfish for the fall season.
Hey Franco, awesome build again. I love your approach to lure making and application of your knowledge, it is just great. Keep up the good work. Your ideas, techniques, presentation and editing are just awesome, loving every video you do. Just been making up some of your lollipop lures, have turned out great, can't wait to get em in the water. My 3 kids (4, 6 and 9) are making one each and are loving it, so good to see them into it. Thanks so much for all your hard work from Australia 🐟🐠
Thank you very much for a great channel. I love the artistry of solar, but the mechanics of your approach completes the picture. Its like a fusion of the head and the heart and it is exactly what makes us such a unique species. Poet and scientist. Keep at it, and thank you!
I’m really enjoying your channel! Started watching What a Jerk and saw the nod to your channel while watching his videos. I made my first lure following his example, and now I’m trying to make a similar one to this while we’re in the keys for a few weeks. Might even get to fish it before we leave!
Just wanted to add- it’s really helpful to see the physics and mechanics behind the lure designs. It makes a huge difference trying to make my own. I’m not just blindly copying a visual design; I can edit and troubleshoot to make the lure work with the inevitable variability in the build.
Great looking/action wake bait... will be good for largemouth bass also !!! Very nice design and video presentation!!! Keep up the great work...Very informative & enjoyable !!!👍👍👍
There are lots of videos of people using wake baits for redfish on RUclips. The Strike King KVD model is popular along with similar ones. So I think it's a good idea to make your own. I'd like to see a jointed version. Did that one ever catch redfish?
Hi. Another great Video 👍👍👍Does the wood you use, camphor, have another name? The wood camphor that is available here looks different, like rosewood or root wood. thanks
Franco, another great video. I have done the same set up for a rattle on one of my lures. They do help to make it loud. I am actually using the technique you did to make to original lure for my own, I am planning on pouring the two halves independently to make the lure so that I do not have to drill through the entire body. Would that be easier than doing a one piece poor. Looking forward to your response. Ted
Hi Franco . Nice to found your chanel! You make really nice lures ! Thanks for all this information you give us! I would like to ask you what I have to do if I want to sink it just a little more while retrieved. If I put the lip on smaller angle , for example 75 degrees, will be ok ?
Great video I had a question. Im airbrushing foam bobbers for salt water use and I want to make a hard shell clear coat. What would you recommend? I would like to air brush the clear coat on also thanks
You can use UV epoxy resin and set them in the sun if you don't have UV lights. Just thin the resin with denatured alcohol. You can also try clear lacquer in a can.
I think that eyes are very important. Predators key in on the eyes. It lets them know where to attack. That is why many smaller fish have a spot (false eye) near the tail. You can just paint them in...
You're the bait building channel that does the math. Otherwise it's an "it worked pretty good like this last time let's see if it will work again" sort of thing. Sometimes the how and why behind it is good to keep in mind even if we always don't do the math. It gives us pause to consider things and making it not so fl'y by the seat of your pants'. Thnx.
The red eyes was the right choice! Nice contrast. Looks awesome
The spray silver plating you used in a previous video looked amazing. A few years ago there were two McClarin F-1 cars that were done using the spray silver plating method for several years.
I know...I've seen a couple of sports cars done this way...I looks incredible but I'm not sure I would want to be driving a mirror.☺
I nice! I know how I'm gonna spend my lunch break! ❤ thanks!
Great breakdown of volumes. Maracas sounds 💯
this is the production lure for ya!!!
I tapped the like button lightly. You are correct.....it did the same thing.
I don’t think the redfish will be able to resist that flash and rattle. Another great build !
I'm looking forward to slammed a big red with this... thanks

Thank you again for sharing your skills!
Thank you so much.
Great action and plenty of rattle noise ☺️ hopefully your buddy will send you some pictures of those Reds 🤞
What!? He's not getting this...we compete against each other in tournaments 😆
@@EngineeredAngler o I see 😅 in that case a hope it'll catch You the trophy 🏆 Red 🤞
Another great bait .Enjoy the videos 👍👍
I like that topwater action.
Amazing flash bro! Steppin youre game up every build! Anything swimmin should eat that...very well done sir!!
I always "smash" the like button on your videos. That is one beautiful bait, great action and I loved the shot of that carved bass on your shop too!
Thank you so much...every like, and view, and comment, helps to attract the attention of the "merciless RUclips Algorithm".

Yikes...that will suck!
That rattle just rocks!!! Great bait!!
Awesome. Seriously enjoying all your content. Keep it up.
Thank you.
Might be my favorite lure you’ve made
Yea...cant wait to toss it around on the flats.
Great Build - good action. Can see the bull red fish striking this lure. Please do a follow-up on the charter Captain used and success.
That's the plan.
Turned out great!
Fantastic work Franco, love the channel. and the engineering aspect when it comes to your lure making. 10/10.
Thank you very much!
Want to say Happy New Years to your family and you. Stay save, cannot wait see what your cooking up to share. Lamar
Thank you...best wishes to you and yours.

Wow! You don't know how much that means to me...so happy to hear you got your kids involved. Cheers.
Nice one Franco! Like the action - don't have any "wake baits" so I'll have to remedy that this winter :)
Excellent work
Definitely love the rattle idea. Excellent lure!
Thanks 👍

That was very entertaining and informative 🤗
Glad you enjoyed it!

Wow, I'm jealous! I need to make a trip to the keys this winter.
If you don't mind me asking...what video did he give me a shout out on?

Yes.. it's caught its share if reds. They don't always go for wake baits though.
Awesome video! Kinda want to go buy a drill press this weekend so I can try this one at home.
It can be done without one...but why waste a good excuse to by a power tool😊
Hope my wife agrees!
Thank you, going to give it a go today
Do it....watch the build of the original if you want to repeat my shape.
Watching this makes me glad that I always have been using the metric system. And as sides I normaly use beer caps or a coin.
👍
I’m going to make one of these. Great build!
Go for it!
Your vids are awesome my man, keep it up! Cheers!
Thanks, will do!
Hi. Another great Video 👍👍👍Does the wood you use, camphor, have another name? The wood camphor that is available here looks different, like rosewood or root wood. thanks
No...camphor trees are an invasive species from China...camphor is the only name I know.
Beautiful!!!!
Thank you!!
Nailed it
Great lure! Why didn’t you use the bandsaw for your lip slot?
No good reason...but I do try to use hand tools where it's reasonable ...not everyone has power tools.
Franco, another great video. I have done the same set up for a rattle on one of my lures. They do help to make it loud.

Hi Franco . Nice to found your chanel! You make really nice lures !

I would like to ask you what I have to do if I want to sink it just a little more while retrieved. If I put the lip on smaller angle , for example 75 degrees, will be ok ?
Yes that will work...you can also move the tie eye up away from the bib a tiny bit.
@@EngineeredAngler Thank you very much!
Perfect👍👍👍
Great video I had a question. Im airbrushing foam bobbers for salt water use and I want to make a hard shell clear coat. What would you recommend? I would like to air brush the clear coat on also thanks

You crushed it...
Beautiful work sir
Thank you
Please let us know how your lure does for your captain friend. Great build awesome rattle.
Will do
Like the lure but expected it to sink more then it did due t I the (almost) 90° bib and the position of the tie eye?
Nope full on wake maker.
Really nice
Thank you! Cheers!
Please let me know how that work for flats fishing. It's about that time of year here in nw Florida to target reds, trout
and strippers.
Yes! I'll see you out there.
I don’t think I saw it anywhere in the video, what length and height did the lure end up being?
You can find the full instructions on the lure shape in this video and the part 2 of this build.

I have "made" three lures so far and none of them have eyes because I have never purchased any. How important do you think having eyes on a lure are?
I think that eyes are very important. Predators key in on the eyes. It lets them know where to attack. That is why many smaller fish have a spot (false eye) near the tail. You can just paint them in...
👍👍👍👍👍
Why would you not use the two part mirroring finish? You have the setup. 🤷♂️
I'll do for when I a bunch of lures.
I like the technique. The rattle was extremely aggressive.
You're the bait building channel that does the math. Otherwise it's an "it worked pretty good like this last time let's see if it will work again" sort of thing. Sometimes the how and why behind it is good to keep in mind even if we always don't do the math. It gives us pause to consider things and making it not so fl'y by the seat of your pants'. Thnx.
And that's exactly how I feel about it.. I don't always do the math either.
Очень круто 😃👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
