Making a Massive Grayling SwimBait 

”It’s going to a good home” - well not if you ask the grayling 😂 We literally can’t wait to serve it to some MONSTER northerns in 4K! Anyone knows a good 120 lb braid?

I can't believe I've been watching this channel since before Finn was born. Every episode has been worth watching.

35:45 Rest is peace good boi. When you’re strolling those streets of gold just know there’s a ton of people down here that miss you. We love you Chip❤

39:58 "fish on!" Literally made my heart stop 😂 I was so hoping you caught a monster

Thanks, Emperor!

Not gonna lie, the swollen face is kinda giving me Who-ville vibes, haha!😆 Awesome bait man! Always love the paint jobs♥

39:58 Oh yes you fooled me haha

When you genuinely step back for a second and look how far your skills have come its truly amazing man.. This Bait is stunning work..

been looking forward to see this one thank you sir hope you are healing well

Rolf Nylinder has some very good grayling fly fishing videos. Excellent cinematography and narration as well.

Your bait making gets better with each video. I've been retired 2 1/2 years, and watching your videos got me started making lures about 4 months ago. Thanks for that, Nate. It's enjoyable AND frustrating. I love it. Keep putting out the great content. I hope you heal up quickly. God bless.

Yes!!! a Grayling!!

Every time you start painting I can’t see what you’re seeing. But you bring it together every time and I’m even more blown away each time! You Sir are a mad man 🦾🦾

You should make an arctic char lure

I see Marling making lures. I instantly click

Man can wait to watch boatside use this bait!!!

That bait is awsome Nate!!! Amazingly done once again, cant believe I’ve watched you for 5 years now, It’s so strange this RU-vid thing I feel like you’re a close friend of mine, but you have no idea who I am. It’s really weird thing. but just so you know, these videos really helped me to be a better fisherman and bait maker and they have helped me through some hard stuff, not that you are like a therapist or anything but your videos really have a therapeutic effect. I’m pretty sure I’m speaking for more than just me when I say that so, I just wanted to thank you for filming and making baits thank you Nate. And I know this one is going to hurt. It’s time to get a new lead pot. Sincerely, Kenni Ehlers Mark. Aka EHLRSOUTDOORS 😊

Really enjoy the boatside channel, looking forward to seeing them fish it

Boatside coalition with marlin i Like that ❤

I live in Alaska, and greyling is one of my favorite fly species. This is an absolute masterpiece. I really like the channel that it's going to be gushed on as well. I predict that it'll hook up REALLY quickly. Great job. ❤

Whovilles finest bait maker! Another awesome one down. Can't wait to see what monsters they catch on it!

Bowfin🙏🙏🙏 also awesome grayling by the way

Sending this to boatside eh? Can’t wait to see what beast they can catch on this!

I tend to prefer your smaller lures but that’s gotta be the best paint job I’ve ever seen you do, massive kudos. Reminds my of my first grayling catch from the stream below my house but quite a bit bigger 😂

Amazing work, Nate! That thing is absolutely gorgeous. I would be terrified to actually cast it. I hope the healing continues and you're in tip top shape for spring fishing.

the second you said pike fishing i immediately thought of those boat side boys and i’m excited to see that video now

I love the passion you do and hope you back to self soon I’m thinking and praying for you and everyone else that loves this too 😎❤🐟

The videos just keep getting better and better! Keep it up❤️❤️❤️ and WITH BOATSIDE! What an epic Collab!

What a masterpiece once again !!!

It's 1am and i have school tomorrow but it's gonna be worth it

So THAT was the large lure you teased, definitely worth the wait ❤🎉!

these just get better and better keep it up nate!!!

Watching you make these baits is great, but learning about different species just makes the videos that much better.

Most insane paint job I've ever seen on a bait!! Mad talent!!

Another piece of art - I hope we get to see it being fished. I was thinking - if you go back through your footage, could you identify where you snagged and lost which baits? If so - maybe there's a diver here among your followers willing to come and try and retrieve at least some of them. Would be a cool video 😎

Arctic grayling is my favorite fresh water fish! I've worked on the north slope of Alaska in the oilfield on a drilling rig for 13 years, it is the furthest north you can drive in Alaska. I go fishing almost every day after work in the summertime and have caught more trophy grayling than you could dream of. The colors vary drastically between lakes and different rivers. This one is definitely a more common color pattern in the lakes. Pictures do not do them justice. You did a great job on the paint!

fantastic, masterfull. my usual comments are always encouraging,,, i am so excited to see this fished. i will be waiting

This Chanel is such a great resource for lures and fishing.

This one is a Masterpiece! Simply amazingly realistic.

Got me too…. Great looking lure, you’re a master.

Another amazing lure and video Nate! I hope you are feeling better soon.

I gotta say that was single handedly the most chaotic lead pot segment I've on this channel to date

Amazing! Maybe one of the best I've you make; and you didn't loose it! 😂. Hands sheen one of my favorite RU-vid channels abs my sole inspiration for getting into carving.

Hidden Boatside Collab, looking forward to see it fishing in sweden. Thanks for the great video

This one brought memories of my grandfather, had heard a lot of stories about this fish. Grandpa had a lot of experience in caughting them with his father in Siberia. He always said it's one of the prettiest fish out there, never seen one myself, but heard there are some in local trout rivers. Thanks for brining up the memories ❤ Amazing paint job BTW !

The rumors are correct- grayling are very tasty to eat! When fishing in northern areas of Finland during the summer, the sun doesn’t go down and you tend to endure epic fishing sessions upwards of 24hrs at a time. Grayling skewered with a firm twig (or Tikkuharjus as we call it) and roasted over a fire was the preferred snack at any given time of the day and proved to be the fuel we needed to continue fishing for such long periods. That and you could drink straight from the glacial melt in the river since the water was so clean. Pound for pound one of the strongest fighting fish you will encounter in a swift current thanks to that giant sail on their backs 💪🏻

You should do a strength test of the connections between the segments. I always wondered how strong the connections actually are

This is awesome. Best lure making channel on RU-vid 🤘

The fins on this are phenomenal!

I've watched the video start to finish 3 times now. I pick up new things in the paint job every viewing. So awesome to see the way you used the 8bit Baits Powders! You picked two of my favorite colors! Amazing to see the final gloss coat with the sparkle. The Sonic really compliments the Grayling color scheme well. Phenomenal work as always my friend! Thank You for the inspiration! 🙌🏼

That's a master piece 🤘 glad to your back at it ✊. You should make a soft plastic that size 👍

You got me with the "fish onnmn" 😆😂😂😆

You are a true master of your craft. Love your bait making. Thanks for sharing!

Very COOL build...can't wait to see more of your work

Awrsome buddy! Been thinking bout a greyling soft bait forever!!

You killed it! That turned out beautiful!

Thank you so much for your videos. I really needed this right now.

This is most likely the greatest thing I've ever seen 😍 thank you for the video

Bucket list fish for me.

That is so beautiful! Probably bigger than the only grayling I've ever caught :D

While we’re on the topic of Arctic fish, I’d love to see a Dolly Varden or Arctic Char lure!

That is a nice bait. It came together almost flawlessly. But I will tell you that you looked a little scary after the reveal. What a trooper to come out after a few days and give us a finished video with running dialogue of this magnificent bait. Take care of your self. Cheers.

Would be amazing if you try to build a mahi mahi swimbait, with the beautiful colors. I reckon no one ever tried to build a mahi on youtube.

Beautiful work!

Looking forward to another great video! Keep up the incredible work!

A truly amazing project 🎉

Can't wait to see it on the "boat side " channel 😊

I would like to see one of your baits with soft plastic fins.

Awesome, thanks for sharing Nate

That bait is a work of art! I hope once it gets to it's final destination we get to see it catch a monster pike

So good man! Looking forward to seeing it catch some fish

Dude, you got me good! Then I had a good laugh, thanks. Fish on!!! Hoping you are completely healed for your next production. I can't say this is by far your best lure, because you make so many good ones, but it should be high on your chart during the next ratings.

Beautiful !

That's amazing

Congrats on a masterpiece of lure making. I was so stoked to see you making my fav fish of all time.

I like going deep too! with the carvings of course!

A true work of art... 👏👏👏 fantastic!

I've watched every video that's come out from the beginning? Blows my mind every time. The channel your making the lure for are brilliant, one of if not the best pike fishing on RU-vid. Finally your making a grayling something I could use in Scotland

Super nice bait! Can't wait for Mille and Pontus video @Boatside to drop :)

I hope everything is going well good recovering budd❤

Awesome build!!! Loved this one!!!

I’ve watched most of the videos on the channel, this is my favorite! Next level paint job.

Wow, that is propably one of the best looking baits you have made so far 😮 amazing. And I am so happy it seems it is going to Kanalgratis 😊 the guys will definitely catch a pike on this. Looking forward to their video...

that paintjob looked great in the sun.

That really cool

Those wood curls are so satisfying.

The water is finally melted and I took the day off work tomorrow. This video came in perfect time to inspire my first fishing morning of the year. As always, thanks man, great video, glad you are feeling better. You absolutely always blow me away with these paint schemes. Crazy good dude

Super impressive!!! That color scheme sure came together amazingly. That top dorsal fin is the deal !!!

Beautiful bait!

Such a marvellous bait, I wish I had your tools and dedication. Have to go out and try to catch an european grayling some day, but these are massively protected here. Keep it up!

This man has the most catch fraises of anyone I've ever seen

Get 'em Chip!!! He's really why i watch the channel, ha! Nice lure, looks amazing as always.

Love the content hope you have a quick recovery

My man that would be a wall hanger for me...after one trip out with it that is. Amazing job.

What a beautiful piece of work, it looks great, well done on your craft mans ship. Cheers Paul Australia.

Such a pretty bait and one of my favorite fish

Grayling are a beautiful fish, only caught one on a fly fishing stretch of a river called the Witham (this is in the UK btw) very strong fighter too!

That is a wall hanger...wow what a beautiful bait. Not sure if you've noticed but hey, your getting pretty good at this bait making stuff 💪😁

I think this bait put the Arctic Grayling back on my bucket list to catch. I say back on, because I remember seeing the Arctic Grayling in a fly fishing book my Dad had when I was a little kid. The bait turned out amazing!....FishOn....Jim

I think this is your finest lure you made so far !! Absolutely a work of art ❤
