Making the Gnarliest Larva Lure Ever 

First sponsorship being Married Marling promoting dating app 😂👌🏻 I absolutely love this channel!!!

That was probably the only sponsor segment of a RU-vid video I’ve not skipped through. I was convinced he was just joking. Congrats on the sponsor! Next sponsor German shepherd clothing company?

the last sponsor I would've ever expected 😂😂😂😂

I don't think I have laughed as hard as I did during your ad in a long time lol. Just thinking about the process of how they found you and thought it all made sense, then thinking about how you as a married dude would sell this onto the channel lol. This is great - I love when the fishing world guys do the non-fishing promos like when JJ did Manscaped. Happy to see the guys high in our community getting paid outside just our world.

words cannot describe the shock I was in seeing Nate promoting a dating website on this channel, i literally went back and watched the whole thing again to make sure I wasn't in some type of fever dream

The LAST thing I’d expect was a sponsorship from a dating website, keeping us on edge I see😂

I'd love to see you make a whole superglue and baking soda bait, just a block of superglue and baking soda that you carve and paint Edit: also you should get a clear plastic tank to show the action in, like a fish tank

I’m dying Nate 😂 first sponsor is a dating app… I love this so much! Your channel has become one of my go to’s when winding down at the end of the night. Relaxing, informative, and your dry sense of humor just melds perfectly with mine. Keep up the amazing work 👏🏼👏🏼

I hope this is a thing. You need to only do weird sponsorships. Example: Breast pumps. Another example: cuticle doctor. Something along the lines of dishwasher odour neutralizer or kitchen utensil draw organizer. Well done on the sponsorship! Can’t wait to see what the next sponsor is gonna be! Great video by the way. A Halloween lure would make a good video too!

Hey man! Great lure. I'd love to see you do more micro crankbaits (nothing quite as small as your first tiny crankbait challenge, but something a bit bigger, maybe with treble hooks instead of a single barbed hook) for crappie!

Sick. Gnarly, even.

I just thought of something you might have fun with! Make something like the glass catfish. Carve the skeleton and paint the skeleton/skull and then put it in one of your soft plastic molds. 😁 I think it would be fun and different

Out of all those amazing lures you create and design, why not after being done with the carving make a mold out of it so you can cast them easily out of plastic at a later stage, or perhaps when you lose them you can simply make a new one. Great video though ;)

Hi Marling Baits, can you do an anglerfish lure with a working light antenna and try fishing it at night?

OMG NATHAN!! I excuse your propensity… but also I so needed this video today… can’t wait to see the finished product!

if I could be a fly on the wall when you explained your sponsor to your wife lolol...epic...well done!

thanks to your new sponsorship and all this talk about belly flabs im rethinking my life. Thank you Mr. Baits im off to the gym. after your video of course.

That was the best sponsor add I've ever seen🤣🤣

Normally I skip the sponsor on most channels. But! You, my friend, are worth watching as I know how awkward you can get with significant things like such as haha. Totally worth the gamble! Chapeau!

Quite legitimately the best in video advertisements I have enjoyed in a while. Legally and morally bound!

Your one of my favourite fishing youtubers because you don’t have click bait thumbnails showing fish that were photoshopped and your straight to the point, great work man.

My baits are getting pretty impressive Mr.Marling and I give 99% of the credit to you and your videos, thanks for changing my life bro!

Best ad I’ve ever seen. I love it.

Good for you getting a sponsor for the video. Bring in that add money, you deserve it!

That sponsorship was hilarious! You should keep doing them as a comedy bit!

Halloween bait! Eyeball bait with soft plastic dangling optic nerve, and a matching eyeball bobber!

Even though I hate advertisements, this channel deserves loads more.

I think everyone wants to see a Nate marling rod and reel collection, also a video showing all of your tackle would be sweet as well

When a dating site has hot girls wanting to chat a minute after signing up you know it's a dodgy website.....but get as much sponsorship money out of them as you can. Another great video

Omg can’t believe I’m 7 hours late to see the new video🤦🏽‍♂️🤣🤣🤣 favorite thing to watch at work hands down

Awesome! I watch your videos and fall asleep because they are so calming

I bought a belt sander because of you. When my house reno is done I'm going to try my hand at a lure.

Hurrah!! One day!! Rock on my friend!

Coming together! What an appropriate sentence for a dating site!

I think this is one of my favorite baits. Love the gnarly baits

Oh my gosh that bait looks awesome nice job

that would be a kickass soft bait lure with a working gill system to generate sound. on "fishing with norm" they went to a "field & stream" sporting outlet to find lures, had nothing as radical as this, but they did have a lure 5.5 feet long with what appears to be a 34 inch body at the waist, if fish have a waist. should try branching over into "salt water" and begin making a gnarly fungi virus protoplasm bait that size for catching blue fin tuna or other things on the ocean floor. toss something like that on a pond and the only way to catch fish will to be if it had a chamber fish swam into and are trapped in. hey my artificial lure lure just gave birth to a 15 pound bass!!!!!!!!!!!!!! only problem i see is dehooking a gator. damn hooks must be the size of hubcaps.

Sick new lure! For your next one, throw it back and make a new soft plastic lure mold your old school way! It would be more finesse. Maybe like a pumpkin head Skelton type of guy for Halloween!

The “don’t hit it with accelerator” was hilarious. Literally laughed out loud

These are the type of videos you can put on, enjoy and just forget everything. Love it

Dwight yoakam in the background!... That's a like from me!!! Love ya work, all the way from AUS

Haven’t watched it yet but already liked it👍

So many videos lately ! Thanks Nate , keep it up , love them all !

Hey man, hope you follow all guidelines for the airbrush products you use, that "haze" freaked me out. The world needs marling baits, don't leave us early hahaha

Very cool design again!! I add all colors drop of 4030 and reducer. I feel paint dry faster and surface is very durabel to stencils.

I too am bound by flesh and law to a better than I deserve woman, however this ad was hilariously wonderful. I never watch ad's, till today. Thanks for doing things on the interwebs👍🏻

You need to make a knarly piranha lure. That would be SICK!!!

The legend, I'm seeing more and more bait making video on YT every day. Your inspiring

Love it when you make the gnarly baits!!!

LOL It's baby Mothra!! Very complex and beautiful design. As a Godzilla fan, I approve.

That is, just as the name suggests, a very GNARLY LARVA. Great work!

I love the mad sponsor plug!!

Thanks to you, I made my first lure! I feel really proud of it and I thank you for making it possible. This will be a really enjoyable hobby.

Love it, Nate.

You should try to do a triebflugel bait! Its a german plane(?) idea with three spinning wings, might have good movement in water

The talent with this guy!!

It's beautiful. Well done

best sponsor plug ever !

It’s amazing how quickly he paints

Very gnarly! Love it Nate!

That ad was hilarious! Good deal on both ends lmao nice video!

One of my top 3 of your videos

Yes sir, love all the new vids

YES MORE GNARLING MARLING!!!

JUST MARRIED!!!!!!!! thanks my man. Lololol ily

Lmao!!!!! Man, that background music at the river!!! I thought Clint Eastwood and Sam Elliott were going to jump out and beat both our asses at any second!! 💣😂😂😂

Congrats on the Sponsor! You deserve it man. 👏👏👏

Thoroughly enjoyed the sponsor ad 🤣

Love your work Sir! Hoping to be a lucky buyer one of these times..

Day 2 of An lure idea: a big soft plastic lure with 2 curly tails And try to catch a mega muskie😀👍❤️

Love the channel Nate! Keep up the good work! Tight lines, Pete

I would love to see some more mini stuff. Love the videos

I knew watching bait-making videos today would give me dating knowledge! 👍

Made even better with the Dwight Yoakam playing in the background

If this is your Samhain video, I love it. Good job!

These videos are always entertaining!

Great work man. Everyday I can't wait to get off work just to come rewatch some of your freaking hilarious videos keep it up man you're great thank you.

Awesome video as always love watching your content would love to see you do a deep diving butterfly 🦋

Looks awesome

Congratulations on your first sponsor dude.

Home made wooden collapsible Ice-Fishing tip-up would be sweet to see you make. With some sort of Fish carving incorporated into it.

Do a crawfish!!! Slow Deep crank style...They work great in winter! Great work as always sir

The music when you were at the river made my dog act weird!! Lol

THAT SPONSORSHIP IM DEAD! Best channel on youtube, it has everything. Aslo you should make a top water crab lure next spring, why? Because you can

Those girls on the dating app couldn't resist such a perfectly carved and painted lure as your profile picture.

The only sponsor segment I didn't skip xD

Best ad ever!! 😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I thought it was a joke for sooooo long 🥰 I’ll try it out after I’ve watched you make a massive grub 😘

As per usual an awesome video thank you 👍👍

Nate is CRANKING OUT da vids! 👏 love you homieee

After seeing the dating app ad marling did I realized how lonely I am but it was so hilarious 😂

This Video saved my evening greetings from germany

That bait is so sick, crazy how you can make something that amazing from wood. Amazing job!

Grats on the sponsor firstly and second that was a peice of art.. and goodness you make stuff that bass fishermen wish they sold in stores.

One day I am going to try to make my own lure. I fish mainly small lakes and have been trying to find a smaller jointed floating stick bait than the F5 Rapala. I guess I can just try to make my own.

When Nate uploads a bunch in a week it makes for a awesome week

Hey Marling Baits. Could you cast the legs and then mold them in soft plastic, then reconnect to the bait? Might offer more movement when retrieving slower on cold days? It would be great to see a combination swim bait with soft plastic. Keep up the great work. All the best from New Zealand

Your baits always turn out amazing man I hope your as stoked as we are when you get em finished because they always end up sweet lookin, keep it up man🤙🏽

That sponsorship was amazing! I love this channel so much!

Yay! Love the Gnarly baits!
