Making a Cave Cricket Lure 

Yessss finally brother its been years Edit: literally sent a screen recording of the intro to 35 people allready 💀 time to find something else haha, been making the cave cricket comment since the earwig was teased

I'm 72 years old and you just CRACK ME UP! I WAS LAUGHING SO HARD! When you showed the "ACTION" in the tank I was dying laughing! Thank you, you are a BRIGHT in my lonely world. Sorry I don't mean to be a Debbie downer. But after my wife passed I don't have many laugh outloud moments and YOU SIR MADE MY DAY

I'm glad to see another dog on the channel. I do miss old Chip, I've watched his video 50 times by now.

I lure crickets every time I make a joke.

My wife said her laptop was running slowly, and I said maybe the storage is full, and she said all of her documents are stored on One Drive, and I went “wh-hu-hu-huONE DRIVE” 😂

You’re reawakening my fishing addiction. I blame you for all the fun I’ll have

I’d love to see just a basic lizard lure! I think top water would fit it, but I know you’d come up with something good, glad to see more critter creations, keep it up!

When you open up RU-vid and see a new video from Marling Baits, ya know it's gonna be a good day. Thanks for everything you do Nate! Cheers brother!

hear me out for a second...... three piece swimming godzilla bait were the dorsil plate stay on top of the water like in the movies

It’d be cool to see an episode (maybe anniversary special?) with your top 10 … most fish catch’n… yeah; coolest looking.. top 10 best action, etc, etc.

As soon as I started watching the video, my wife talked about how much they scare her, then that was a fun fact, love it!

As a fellow Marion resident and amateur mycologist, I love mushrooms. Thanks for spreading those spores so well!

Superglue baking soda is back! WOUUUUHOUUUU

I want the hat lol hell yea it's about time

Oh my God you just made my day. Thank you!

That blowup moment... thats absolute fishing satisfaction... flawless... your own lure... send it there... comment it and seeing it on the camera - BLOW ... and perfect hookup - SUPERB!

I love that you're teaching your skills to your kids! So great! He's gonna be an O-fish-al baitmaker for sure! Great bait once again.

*gets RU-vid notification* *sees Marling Baits* (most exciting thing ever) *slowly dies from internal fear of cave crickets*

Definitely rate the baits every time. Humans like charts. 📊 😂

This is a great birthday present

You should make the michelin man!!!!!!!!!

Best bait for trout I've ever used

A flounder lure would be dope!Sideways swimming and all haha

I’m going to need the uncut full build video so I can watch and listen while going to bed lol

Riverside cooking makes any day amazing.

Stumbled on your panel via a comment on Reddit. You’ve caught a new subscriber

I love crickets for live bait too. Side note, your voice is soothing and I commonly fall asleep watching your videos 🤣

I built a pretty nifty UV box for finishing the cure on my jigs, 4 60w UV lights and the box has a chrome vinyl on the inside to reflect the light. Cures pretty quick and no worries of debris or bugs 🤙🏻, lights are all wired to one single switch

Looks very nice I love it. My friend and I always watch ur bait videos. We are interested in buy some of ur baits. Anyway ur the best and I want to see u soon cause I'm a major fisherman to. Hahaha. Ur the best and ur creative and very talented on making baits.

I’ve caught fish with green toy army men. You said it you can catch fish with anything. Cave cricket looks great.👍

Awesome work dude! I'd love to see you make a northern pikeminnow, that's usually what I catch on the river here in the pnw

I’m gonna need you to make an audiobook on something boring like carburetor data sheets. To fall asleep too. I’m too interested in fishing, but I have fallen asleep to your videos. LOL

Interesting idea I have started using either foam or rubber worm plastic for legs and arms The foam legs are lite and are glued to the plug body For a sinking crawfish plug I made a mold and have been casting the crawfish pinchers out of plastic But I add a strand of stainless wire in the pinchers with a attached #2 single hook I catch a lot of the bass on single hook

its finally here

Been watching for a while… appreciate everything you do! I’d love you to make a leaf lure…….. time for a real fishing challenge

Wow. You've come so far from where you started. This is a complicated and detailed lure

I started a job in injection moulding last Monday. You're the reason I even know what it is. 👍 Pretty cool.

Cave crickets would be one of the scariest looking bugs if they ever became car sized. 😂😂😅😅 They gross me out every time I see one. Lol

One of the first 5000 to view 🎉 Love the baits and videos keep rocking it😉

Big cricket is a great idea. You should do a psychedelic frogfish. It would fun to paint.

Hi love the lures and one day I hope I am as good as you

You should make a Golden Scarab Beetle! It would be an interesting FUN FACTS and I think top water lure would work great!

You’ve become my new obsession! Awesome stuff, every video! Any plans to make a RoosterTail? I feel like you could own that.

I think this is the first time I have ever seen you catch a catfish in one of your videos.

I just made my first lure and you were my biggest inspiration.

"even if it looks like it could leave the orbit" 😂😂 thanks Nate, i spit coffee on the floor!! 😂

You should get a polarizer filter for the camera you use to film yourself fishing. It'll remove the water reflections and make it easier to see through the surface.

Have you heard of a Rainbow Cricket? Their colors are insane. I saw one for the first time in my life out here in Colorado. I know you've now made two cricket lure videos, but you know what they say.. third times a charm!

AHHHH BOB SAGET!!!

Another super awesome bait can't wait for the next video thank you so much

I never knew a catfish could pounce so hard! That’s awesome!

I think a mudskipper bait would be a cool one they have some nice colors

These things plague my basement (NY), neat to see how good of a bait they may prove to be.

Marlin love the videos, would you do a wooden wake bait lizard with a soft plastic limbs and swirly tail ?

I love the idea of you giving a “_-fishal” rating to each of your new baits, that’s cool!

This kinda gives me an idea. You should try to make a swim bait with a retractable hook where the hook hides near the end of the tail and when the fish bites, it goes up. Basically a weedless but a hard bait instead of soft bait

I hope you can make a wooden (floating) jump frog, wobble frog or bubble frog that we use here in the Philippines and in some other parts of Asia like Thailand and Indonesia. Do it marling baits style. 😁

Hey brother. I really love your videos. I make baits irregularly. Just finished my first batch in 5 years 😞 😅 but your posts keep me interested in the hobby, and the latest batch are my best by far. I'm sure I absorbed a lot of info from you from my last batch to now so, thank you. I can't remember if you've commented on this before but the line tie on the cricket looked to be pretty far from the lip. The legs on this baby were big but I wonder if moving the line tie right down to the lip would've produced some wobble? 🤷‍♂️

I’d love to see a copperhead soft plastic now!

Went fishing today using a storm minnow swimbait and got 3 very aggressive smallies. Came home to this video it is a good day

Man been askin for years for the lighting bug lure… u teased me with the led eye bait!!! Can’t wait!!!!

Hes giving in guys! Me next! Im having to go back to last video everytime to see the amount of videos ive asked for zebra pleco bait! Show us your skills that we love!

That was COOL! A Cat On A Cricket Lure! 😎👍

your lures never disappoint!

Maybe try a mole cricket. These things are crazy looking I have them on out garden.. They will eat all the seedling from the roots up.

OHHHHH THE PERFECT ENDING FOR TODAY😍

Very well done!!!

You should do an old school beer/coke can style lure. I tried making one with props inside that spin to make a noise and some with BBs to make it rattle

Ah yes. The plumbing foreman cricket. They just stare at you while you're under there. They never help. They're not good at ductwork either, but they still sit there and judge you.

Loving the content bro

i get these in my house from time to time - i prefer them to the regular crickets because they do not chirp but yeah they're pretty alien looking

love the vids also you should make a 5 inch minnow profile glide

Nice segmentation 😊😊

I died at 2:14 😂😂😂😂 “Where am i?” 😂😂😂

Also if you ever revisit. Topwater popper with this shape would be solid. And it would look like a cricket struggling. Especially since the legs keep goin

The bait was cool but the fungi destruction was epic!🤣

Such a cool bait. Do a Palo Verde beetle next. They live here in Arizona and get to be 4+ inches long.

its really awesome to se a lure thats a insect

Always a good day when you post!

Time to deliver giveitaway giveitaway giveitaeay now!

Hell yes I love fun facts

Thank you very much good sir!!! I appreciate it dude.

You should make the Australian Fish, dusky flathead. They have a pretty funny shape which I think would make a great video.

Hah! After living my entire life in the same spot, I still forget to check the fans when I'm working on tackle on my front porch.

I know you don't really fish saltwater, but I would love to see you make a Blue Crab Lipless Crankbait.

You should probably make a cicada before the year is out. Seeing as this year is so big for cicadas...

Bro violated the smallie 🤣

Demo Ranch had cave crickets for days👍🇺🇸

Love you video keep up the amazing work

If u could use that and make a mold for soft plastics in brown. Like i think it would be worth redoing the legs to kinda flap Love ur content bud. Those ponds u go to are insane with food pellets. I been feeding these hubrids for over a year cus their just fighters

Lol, " it's a general human instinct to poke things" . I'm an official member of the " fuck with the fire club"

When i lived in south Mississippi they were in hour well water shead.

The tourretes guy reference was amazing

Alas , me again . Requesting a bullseye snakehead !!!!! Been at this atleast a year or two now. Since pandemic . I’m not leaving that easy.

My man is back!

I enjoyed the detailed narration about this bug. By the way, I also enjoy the way you speak to the camera. It is unfortunate that you did not use compound eyes on this bug.

Yay new video

Watching on my phone. Going to switch this to the big screen on the computer one day

We have them here in South Texas, but I've always called them, and heard them called, Crickadees'.

YES
