Ok I think I need to be clear on this topic. As an engineer I have to say that there is absolutely no benefit to having the through-wire be able to spin. The fishing line will certainly twist, if the the fish spins the lure, since there is much greater friction and inertia in the lure than the line. I took this little challenge on just for the satisfaction. The physics just doesn't add up but I do like the way the eye twists are buried in the body.

Super cool handling of the problem. 10/10
Paint job - Very Floridian! Lol. 8/10
Action - Unknown ( no footage of lure in action only closeups )
Videography - 9/10 your water shots were amazing.
I know, I have a tough time breaking away from the color schemes that have worked for me. I'll keep working on it...
great idea and video i must try to make one now thank yiu
Sweet! That popper throws more water than I've ever seen.
Nice video. Great looking Popper! Thanks for posting.
Excellent job Franco. Just recently purchased a bunch of large popper blanks and was studying them to see how hard they’d be to make. Off to Harbor Freight to get a lathe. Lol love the color scheme too. Well done
Glad to help! Enjoy the new lathe
Maybe a micro popper would be cool. Nothing fancy maybe couple different paint themes. Maybe one with the nose art from a old plane.
Put the rasping bit / burr grinder on your lathe. Works really well. Great channel - thanks!
I don't have a big enough rasp bit...but it's a great idea.
Another awesome video!
Thanks again!
Fantastic design! If I was going to critique anything at all I would say maybe putting the weight a little further back on the lure
Que tal Franco, cada día que veo tus videos me dan más ganas de empezar a hacer los curricanes para pescar en Long Island NY.
Primero fueron las moscas para el fly fishing, este verano fueron los buck tail jigs, que se usan mucho en esos lugares, ahora
Lo que sigue para este invierno es hacer unos plugs como esos .
Definitivamente los mejores videos de cómo hacerlos y excelentemente bien explicados.
Felicidades y saludos desde Chicago !
Gracias, y como ya vienes el frio espero que va ser una buena temporada para empecar a construir onos plugs para la primavera. Gracias Y suerte.
I would love to see your interpretation of a keeled spinner, ideally one that doesn't involve lead.
The more I think about it I wonder if the previous builder used some kind of special double bearing style swivels. This way you would not need to cut the lure in to sections. Hmm
Maybe, but that would take some precision fabrication.
Great build. I really enjoyed it. I would love to see you catch a fish on that! I think it would create some really good footage. Have you ever looked at recreating the Heddon Hellbender? I always thought it was an interesting design. They work great for lake trout if you can keep them tuned. Thanks for the great content. Keep up the good work.
Your videos keep getting better and better.
Glad you like them! Thank you so much.
Excellent design. I always want to build those because they are so expensive to buy. Thank you
Glad you like it!
i would have cut it down the centre and carved out a space for the hardware then i could use a 3 way swivel inside
It's an interesting challenge but personally I don't see the point for the through wire to be free from the lure body not to mention the potential for decay or waterlogging in the exposed cavity. The belly hook does make sense and I've made a couple with heavy duty stainless steel swivels where I waterproofed (amap) by imbedding half the swivel with epoxy, granted it's not as free as could be mounted inside a section of tubing, but it does at least swivel. I think my solution would build on your solution by inserting the wire in a tube capped with the rivets (kudos Franco) using the traditional outside wrap for the terminal hook connection and just using a SS through pin to hold the belly swivel inside a separate tube. Both tubes to be installed with epoxy to make the internal body waterproof. (Order of operations not as stated obviously.)
All good ideas....at some point I just throw my hands up and say ..."if it rots I'll make another one!"
@@EngineeredAngler I wouldn't worry about it rotting. I have made dozens of thru wired poppers that I use for striped bass in the surf. I heat the plug in the microwave for a short time then pour epoxy down the thru wire hole then use a pipe cleaner to make sure it covers all surfaces. The heat allows the epoxy to penetrate more. Seal the exterior with epoxy as well the paint then clear coat. Never had a problem been doing it that way over 20 years.
I believe the benefit over having the wire wraps exposed is that when they are buried they have less flex and therefore won't bend over and over causing th wire to weaken and eventually break.
That's a great point...they also look better.
I would suggest you use around a 2/0 up to 6/0 stainless steel crane swivel not the brass barrel swivel. But I understand you don't keep them on hand.
Right...I know there are much stronger swivels. I was surprise the brass one was as strong as it was.
That is really cool! Keep up the amazing work!
Excellent video they just keep on getting better
Thank you so much.
Hi sir, I'm your fan from Indonesia. Can you include an Indonesian translation in each of your videos so that we, your fans from Indonesia, can easily understand it. Keep up the enthusiasm, we are always waiting for your next video. Greetings warmly
Nice work.
Thanks!
Liked the video. Not sure why it is necessary to have the plug rotate on its longitudinal axis.
Read my pinned comment
Excellent as always!
Thank you! Cheers!
Those are often used in the North East for Striper in the surf. Most of time they are weighted further back to sit head out of the water………so it floats kind of like a bottle. I think the main idea in that type of tail wrapped thru wire is to be able to change out the wire if it snaps. In the old days, 50 lb Striped Bass from the beach was a real thing.
If the wire snaps the lure is gone...and the fish. The tail down posture I think is a result of trying to make a lure that will cast really far...so tail heavy.
Pretty COOL...
Hey, why not sink the wood in the varnish and vacuum it? That should get the varnish into the wood. Then maybe just blow off the excess to clear the hole and wipe the rest down. Seems like it would work.
That will certainly saturate the wood. And maybe even make it so it doesn't float very well.. But at the very least it'll be difficult to get all of that varnish to set.
Definitely better swivels out there to use than those twisted brass swivels. Barrel swivels etc
Yup.
I think that popper throws enough water. It would be great for stripers on the northeast coast. I'm curious the advantage of the head spinning? I get the belly and tail to minimize leverage from a big fish.
Thanks
You want the truth...? There is no advantage! I just wanted to see if I could do it.
@@EngineeredAngler well you did it, it looked great too. 40 mph winds from the storm off the coast ruined my fishing
Wow that is amazing
Thanks
So... it's a "spin lure", but it doesn't spin on retrieve?
Great build brother 💯
pretty much
You may or may not see this as this video has several months of age.
Let me start by saying I enjoy your content immensely. I'm no professional engineer but I do have a scientific background and seeing you perform calcs for how much lead or finding density of a wood may seem like overkill to some, but I like it.
Your video quality was great and your voice isn't boring to listen to so as you are explaining your builds, I don't drift off like back in my college days in lecture halls of hundreds.
I do NOT have salt water experience however if you or anyone else can explain this to me, I'd appreciate it. Why the free turning hook in the center of the bait? My guess is that so a large aggressive fish such as a striper can't get leverage with such a large bait and twist itself free? Yes I can Google this too, but this is a fishing channel and I enjoy discussing fishing so....
Keep the videos coming, and I'll keep watching!
You got it absolutely right. The spinning lure avoids the fish being able to more easily shake the lure off and protects the lure and hook from harm.
Yall should sell the design to bad dragon.
Great video ++
Thank you 👍
Omg man my compliments
TERBAIK PAK
I like it
I would add some more weight
👍
does this help prevent the fish from throwing it?
Supposedly
@@EngineeredAngler one time i was night fishing throwing a Lucky13 and the lure broke off on a cast. the next thing i hear all of this LOUD splashing from the general direction of where i had cast towards. too dark to see the fish but it sounded big as hell.
anyway, i hope she was able to spit it since it didn't have a spinning through-wire. i went back during the day to see if i could see the lure floating anywhere, but i never found it just like all of the others i have broken off there. / =
a large pike will take a popper that size
Can you post link for that video please
I pinned it to the top of the comments
Didnt notice it spinning
It's not supposed to spin. The hardware will spin if a fish gets hooked spins when it is fighting. Cheers.
@@EngineeredAngler ok
