COMPLETE GUIDE TO GETTING STARTED WITH SOFT PLASTIC LURES! How To Get Started pouring baits! 

Be sure to check the description for tons of links!!

Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit ru-vid.comUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.

If you sat through the entire video... thank you haha..a long one today.

As someone who has been pouring plastic for approx. ten years; this is the BEST video I have seen on beginning plastic pouring!! Five stars

Do a video showing the process of re-using baits... quick video and it has saved me tons of money.

Great video. A good friend has his own side business doing this. Between You and Him it has really sparked my interest in doing this. THANK YOU!

I’ve been watching some of your content for about a month now-After I saw this, I subscribed. Great job👍🏻

Fantastic video, Lots of information for a 64 year old beginner. I appreciate you taking the time too help show techniques and giving great advice.

Chris, I've done a little silicone mold pouring of swimbaits, but no injection molding. Your high quality instructions and easy going manner are highly appreciated!!! I also love your pics on Facebook of your beautiful family!!!

I just made my first mold (open pour off my favorite senko shape), and should be getting in my plastisol ,glitter, and colorant in a few days. Excited to get pouring, your first video was a huge inspiration to start bait making, this one just builds on it. Thanks for taking the time to teach the art.

Thanks a lot for your videos. Will begin to create lure today with open mold.

Excellent video, learned a lot. Answered all of my questions. Thx

Chris, that video is the "bomb" extremely helpful for me, a beginner. Thank you sir!

I love your soft plastic baits there are beautiful colors 🎣👍

Great video even help ppl like me when I order. My frogs look great by the way can see the highlights a little better in the vid. Thanks again for everything

My kids and I are learning about fishing, boating, and making you tube videos. Thanks for the great video I am subscribing so we can keep up and learn from your work.

Your videos give new definition to the term "Click Bait". Every time I click on one, I learn how to create a new bait!! Thanks, your content is second to none. God Bless The Jones' .

Love it bro! Most fulfilling video I have seen in a while!

i wait for the day everything is save for all environment. thanksfor putting it in the description

Great video, this will help me a lot for making plastics

Love your videos. I have about $400 of stuff on its way right now can’t wait to start!!!!

Thank you for all of your videos. I have just spent the last week watching a ton of them. I am just starting out on my journey of making soft baits and your videos have helped inspire me to try. I am purchasing items that you are suggesting and where I do not see affiliate links I am putting down in the notes that I found these places through you. Thanks for sharing and please keep it up. I am looking to do Salt Water grubs and Swim Baits. I would love to see a video on that or updated beginner purchase ideas with affiliate links as it helps your channel. Deadonplastix 5 gallons was my first purchase with some colors and glitter from them and lurecraft.

Thanks so much for this video bro. Can’t wait to try it

Received my duel injector and its awesome. I am now making bait for friends.

really great hands on video ! good job, nice to learn , thank you!

I am a blacksmith and I've been fishing since i can remember i would love to start making lures thanks for this!!

Just ordered my stuff today I can’t wait util I can make them

Trying to learn to make baits and this helped a lot!

I sat threw the whole video. Nice job! Very informative. I shoot some baits only for myself and some buddies to use and I’m love to learn new stuff. Try this, when you do your hand pours use the smallest Pyrex cup that you can get. Helps with controlling the flow. That works wonders for me. 👍

Very informative! Thanks for taking the time to educate others! I’m gonna start out with a Senko mold and see how it goes and if I get hooked.

I love your opening down out positive!

Very nice video Chris! Thank you.

Awesome vid, man! It is very helpful, so are your others. I am new to the hobby, and just ordered a mold, plastisol, some colorants and glitter. I live in Spain and we are not lucky enough to have as many related shops as you have in the U.S.A., but I will try it following your tips. Thank you and keep up this great job!

Hello I have so many questions about this because I have been wanting to get into making plastics and I really enjoyed watching your content

Just stumbled across this in my almost nightly fishing channel surf, and MAN...great stuff! I came to the realization today that I'm dropping a fortune on my favorite plastics because those are 99% of what I use. This video opened up a lot of possibilities, but my learning curve could cost a fortune as well 😂😂

Every time i see your vids.. i wanna buy/make lures and fish.. that is the best compliment i can give ya i think

Great video. I am starting small. Learning. Gaining knowledge. I have a bait company I will launch soon. Gotta start at the bottom !

Super informative and very detailed!

great video .... thanks... plus love the Yuengling since I am in PA!!

You rock dude. This is a great video. Thank you for sharing.

some of the best video`s for somebody getting started, i open pour and just wanted to let u know that to get that high gloss no need to dip into clear just run a propane torch over ur trimmed/finished baits then dip baits under cold water only for a couple seconds to "set" plastic, works great!! thanks for doing ur video`s!

I dont need another hobby, but you have made this irresistible.

Chris, my name is Shawn, and I just watched this video, and it is my very first video, I have ever watched of yours! I watch a ton of videos, tutorials and DIY Videos, and I want to tell you , that it was HANDS DOWN, the Best, and most thorough tutorial videos I have ever watched on YOU TUBE Period! You speak well, and not too fast, and make the visitors that are watching feel at ease, and want to hear more, and you held my attention, and interest, till the very end! I was looking for a video that could teach me, ( Without having to watch a ton of BONEHEADS that have no business on here) attempting to even try to do a so called tutorial, and the 2 seconds I happen to watch of theirs, before I keep looking to find AMAZING Tutorials as yours, are them trying to rip off actual great guys, like yourself, which is totally obvious! LOL! I love the snare drum roll, on one of your molds, at the beginning of the video, by the way! Ha Ha, that was great, and another reason, I kept watching! My first love is music, from COUNTRY to ROCK , and when I’m not looking for a new hobby, or small business, I am a professional Vocalist, Drummer,(That’s why, I loved the drum roll, Lol) guitar player, song writer, and producer. So I’ve had my fair share of videos on You Tube, as well. Lately ,I have been Cowriting and singing, with my great friend, which so happens to be the Bass player for the Iconic National Country band, “LONE STAR”, as far as Country goes, and recently ( BEFORE THE BIG QUARANTINE ) I was out on a tour as Lead singer for Jake E.Lee, who, used to be the guitar player for “Ozzy Osbourne”, and Anthony Esposito bass player for “Lynch Mob”, in Jakes new band, “RED DRAGON CARTEL”. I grew up in Fairfax County Va, moved to Los Angeles Ca. For almost 30 years, and now I’m back in Fairfax Va. Back to one of my son and I’s favorite passions and sport,........ FISHING of course! Chris, I sure hope you are still reading this, and that I have kept your interest, cause I am also a sculptor and mold master, in Silicone, and resin molds and I want to design and sculpt some crazy cool soft plastic lures, that will be Amazing! In 2009, I decided to make a guitar pedal that NO ONE had ever done before! I was told by many famous guitar players, that it would never sell. Not only, did it sell, it won pedal of the year, best new product, and I won Best booth at the NAMM Music Convention. Chris, it would be a blast to collaborate, on some lures and or, if you need resin, or silicone molds made, I’d be more than honored, to help out! After watching this video, I am soooo pumped and inspired to sculpt up some CRAZY NEW LURES! Thank you for the inspiration, HAPPY FISHING!!!!

Brother WWF, Absolutely awesome video! You are a very good teacher.

No joke this looks fun and might get into this

Not too long at all. Very interesting and informative. Thanks and I’ll subscribe so I can see all your videos.

Thank you for this video. It helped a lot!

Fantastic. I’m in Tasmania and love fishing. I have been looking at lure making for a while, this is far the best instructions I’ve seen. Now all I need to do is start looking for local suppliers? Thank you.

Hahaaa watching this video now is kinda funny because you are awesome at open pouring and you're like these are all I have... congratulations on how far you have come you're pours are really inspiring I enjoy your videos

i have designed my own lure but need a plastic tail and cant find what i want on the market. i have an idea but wasn't sure how to do it. you have helped a great deal. im already designing and making my own open pour mold. Thanks for your info...

Just came across your videos I was looking for rod making videos watched those and you said you make your own plastic baits so watched this.I do make my own old school style wooden poppers plastic looks interesting may try it next.

Thank you for the information on and about these molds I have an idea for different mold that I believe would make a big hit in creature baits. And again thanks for your time to create as oppose to running through so cannot understand the process.

Awesome video just getting into bait making because they quit making my favorite bait in my favorite color

Watched this 3 times now, along with your other videos. Looking to buy stuff to start pouring and injecting this winter :)

I forgot to properly mix my plastisol after it sat for months. I didn't clue in as to why the baits came out slightly firmer than snot until I noticed the 6 cm of solids in the bottom of the jug. Took a whole bottle of hardener to firm up the batch. A valuable lesson learned.

PS. Looking for more videos like this, looking to get started in making my own lures.

Great mate! Cheers heaps for making the vid

depending on the bait, for open pours more often, the "Flashing" actually adds to the bait in dimensions i never thought of before, like i can pinch the flashing to make small ribbon tails off the body which i'd never get before. Like for my custom worms i did, i've been getting more fish with flashing on the sides and just messing with it randomly. Gives the fish something new to look at.

Bravo 👏 I just recently retired and you have shown me invaluable information on how to get started with quality and there’s no substitute for quality equipment and not everyone is willing to share their knowledge. Thank You

So jealous of that yuengling... Nebraska veteran and I drank the hell out of that beer whenever I could get it!

You inspired me indirectly to sell molds / lures as well! This is one area where I immediately thought we could pay off the CNC machine, it easily carves into aluminum. Design was the more difficult part but thanks to Fiverr, the drawings coming into CAD was very easy. Feeds and speeds wasnt bad. Aluminum supplier was the challenging part due to specific sizes but buying in bulk equates to whole sale pricing with near free cuts. Next step is selling internationally, mainly in North America. I think a much lower price point will equate to better sales over absurd prices I've seen everyone else selling for. Anyways, I wanted to thank you for your videos.. hopefully with the skyrocketing sales in kayak fishing and outdoor sports in general - 2021 will be a great year!

Thank you for the video your awesome. I have learned so much from you

great information I'm just starting and hope to grow a business ! your tips will help me get there!

REALLY A GREAT VIDEO. iT'S MADE ME WANT TO TRY IT. WELL DONE!!

You have been so helpful you should share some links on where to pick up colors and Glitters

Man... this reminds me... I had a toy when I was a kid called the Creepy Crawlers maker. Basically, it was a gross-out EZ Bake Oven where you'd pour some colored gunk into a metal tray and then stick the tray in an "oven" powered by some light bulbs, which would dry out the gunk and turn it into a rubbery insect looking thing. Grubs, spiders, ants, dragon flies... name the bug, they probably had a mold for it. Which kinda makes me wonder... has anyone ever tried using creepy crawlers as baits? They weren't made for fishing, and they'd probably have little to no action... you'd probably have to texas rig them or something... but I bet fish would still hit on the bright colors and insectoid shapes.

Perfect tutorial sir thank you.

Most down to earth channel on yt to date ive been making spinnerbaits and basically anything with a jig even mad a few flys in the past super fun btw if u ever wanna try it but havent ventured into plastics yet and im really interested in makong some gonna buy some molds and do the damn thing

Thank you, a lot of good information.

Best video on this subject matter... You answered all my questions!!! Thanks!!!

You're the coolest do it yourself i've ever seen in my life The absolute coolest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent video!

I’ve been fishing like twice in my life but this is totally legit.

Nice Clip, thanks from Germany

Awesome video! Learned a lot and can’t wait to start. By the way, I see you have a good ventilation set up, but as a respiratory therapist. I would still recommend using an N95. Micro particles are still being inhaled, which over time can lead to respiratory issues. Just some friendly advice.

thanks for helping new folks get started. has there been any upgrades to the companies you linked

Nice video, great content. Thank you.

Once again a nice tutorial - Goota try this

Saved this video for last .. lol. Great video Chris very informative. I love your bloodline mold (funny your colors are superior to the pics on AAI website). Do you have any other mold with a hook slot. I love split bellies as they offer more rigging options. I've altered most of my silicone hand molds adding a slot to them. Wanted to say thanks again for re-sparking my interest one opening my eyes to more possibilities and variations.

Awesome videos brother.
