I had knee surgery last week. It's been 7 days. I've been watching your content everyday I've been in at bed and out of work. Love your art, keep it up! I can't wait to get back to the lake
As always a great Video. Fantastic work and explanations. editing is 100% one of the best youtube videos around from content to delivery. thanks heaps for the quality entertainment and education mate.
FANTASTIC! You're welcome to try them out on the St. Johns River in Florida this winter if you plan to jump "the pond" anytime soon Paul. We have plenty of pan fish just waiting to challenge your skills!
Hi Paul ... Quite a few soft plastics these days are being made with foil inside to make it flash like the sides of a bait fish. It would be great if you could if you could try to replicate this.
That's awesome I really want to learn to make molds it would help me with my non profit kids fishing group. I make weights which that's easy. But I got all them molds when I was working being Disabled it takes longer. But I'm gonna try to figure a way to make baits. I wish I still had my cutting tools they were taken 5 years ago but a friend gets small planks of wood we're gonna cut thin for making fire starters I'm making stuff to help make fires then will give them away. But every year I get sicker so next year I'm hoping to have every thing of mine sold and only have rods reels tackle and camping stuff then I'll start buying stuff to make more things to give away while I can. But I love your channel I'm learning to make baits Rick weights next I want to take thicker planks cut stripes and start trying to make wood baits or try. Lol. But great video god bless.
try a newt (salamander) they are basicly a worm with a head and small hands and feet. you can even give them some action and they swim like most low action shads.
For the first half of the mold try melting oil based modeling clay. It should form around the details so you don't have to spend as much time cleaning up around the rings.
i thought about just sitting in the semi cured resin but I cannot see this being easy to control with more than one worm, melting clay may be similar but probably more controllable, i have done this with chavant before today for simple objects, but you still have to clean it off. there are always lots of options and it is good to try a few out cheers
this is great! I recently started making my own soft plastics, and i was wondering how to make an injection mold! I wonder if this would work with plaster?
I keep think about making an injector or buying one but with these moulds i am not sure if i would get any benefit but that may be because i haven't used one, thanks
I might make a more modernised version of the the stormy petrel lure which is a vintage lure that was meant to be a topwater lure that blows bubbles and causes disturbances in the water. It also looks like pacman lol
Hello, What's the name of the "plastic plates" for making the "disgn" for your worm ( at 1:35 ) ? Sorry i'm not English. It should help me to make small scales in really fin aluminium' tape too no ?
nice vid did you get my message about latex surface mice and how to make them? what did you say those rib things were as i cant see them in list under vid as i might get some as they be handy for some the lures i mess with. thanks for any help
it was idea from that last vid of your what to make bit. I saw them making floating lure so you could make frogs mice and such was thinking of using that plastic you melt in water to make moulds so could try if fail just remake it
Hello, I have a series on my channel called "What to watch Wednesdays" where I feature a playlist of videos from other youtubers who I have either learned from, been inspired by, or entertained by. This week's topic is all about hand crafted baits and lures. Would you mind if I add this video to this week's playlist? Thanks for the great videos, amazing stuff!
