Testing Different Lip Angles on Micro CrankBaits 

I was recently watching some of your older videos and I think it would be a cool idea for you to remake some of your older videos like the huge tiger trout jerk bait I think it would be a good way for us to see how you’ve progressed and what you do differently and also a way for people to see your older videos

You have “one dayyyy” what about “learn daaayyy”

The angle at which it dives must be determined by drag forces in the water. There has to be the same amount of drag above and below the line, so the bait turns downward to put the lip perpendicular to the line. Also, I added subtitles to the missing audio section last video, check it out!

I feel blessed knowing the origin of "be free" I chuckle every time. Beautiful bluegill btw.

I remember the video where the term “Be free” was introduced. I love it.

Happy Easter, hope everyone's having a good day! (Besides the whole world being on lockdown 🙄)

My favorite, most relaxing, enjoyable thing to watch during our times of rough road

"Scientific Day" .... Maybe loop knot at the line tie, might give the lure more ability to get an action happening.. Great Test with the different degree bibs !!! Cheers from "Down Under" Stay Safe !!

“Test Day” has a nice ring to it 👍

90°-55° lip test, maybe this could be an interesting second part 🤔🤔

I enjoy the relationchip you have with your dog. You have such an even demeanor and are fairly calm. While Chip is a straight maniac with endless energy! One of the great RU-vid duos out there.

Watching these videos has inspired me to start making my own lures and baits, I just finished carving and sealed my first lip-less crank bait tonight. Paint and clear coat tomorrow. I can't wait to make and send one to you and have you review it. Stay tuned!

"Test day" was the winner there

Been tryin to throw "vibin" in where ever you can

Thank you for coming to the rescue on this boring quarantined weekend!!!

Thanks for a new video to watch on a rainy day!

I would buy that 20 degree for Pike fishing... its exactly something I need :) happy Easter mate to you and your family!

"Did you guys see my rod tip" Nate Marlin 2020

Awesome as usual! I'm gonna vote for "test day!" Said in my best impression of you as your new catch phrase. It might make test day a cool thing instead of something out of childhood nightmares!

I like the little bit of commentary you gave while fishing, made the video a bit more fun.

The whole world: “stay inside and away from people” Marlin baits: “ima cast over by this log their might be a fish just vibing over their”

It’s official he cant get coronavirus

pure science, so necessary here where snow falls through the sunshine before our very eyes. I love this kind of thing. I always carry an empty plastic shopping bag with me and a hook and lure on a long piece of line in my pocket any time I go past a good fishing spot and can't take all my gear along. I have caught blue gill on just a line tied to the dock, many times. Good show! Solar noon is the feeding time for cold water, they say. I am jealous of your crappie pond. Have not caught one yet. Have not fished the local lakes in warm water yet this year but I have a good feeling about it. Makes me happy to see you catch fish.

Things I learned today: 1) I need to get and electric carving knife to clean my fish... 2) your outros are awesome!

So have we talked about “It’s O’Fish’al” shirt or merch?

"Let's get out there!" Nate Marlin 2020

Honest. Thank you. I like the testing videos.

Test day was the winner there

You need to make a Tiger King lure. “It’s official. Bass love lures with bleached mullets.”

buenos señuelos de Madera, saludos de perú

Now I know what angle of the lip provides better action! Thanks for such tip-filled videos!

Watching marling baits at midnight cause this is the most entertaining part of the day

Challenge issued. Make a bait entirely out of baking soda and super glue!

"Tiiiime for SCIENCE!"

Chip is half the fun of your videos. Good one, glad to see those crappie!

I'm a scientist, I'm impressed with your attention to detail. Well done

I’m first look at newest comments and scroll down

the first crappie u caught on the jig had a HUGE scar on its back.

this is the earliest i have watched your videos marling bait and when i started it was 29 seconds old

Nice to see the scientific method is alive and well. I wish more engineers would learn to limit changes to one variable at a time. Please keep experimenting

Commenting before watching and I'll edit after, I've always thought that a really shallow angle is good for small crankbaits, good for making the bait dive to the bottom and imo looks like a bait fish feeding Edit: well shit.

Just made Easter that much better. Happy Easter Marling family and everyone else also.

You got me into bait making and i constantly use your methods thank you for the content you make

I honestly started watching RU-vid 5 years ago to learn how to build computers I watch a lot of tech RU-vidrs but you are by far one of my favorite RU-vid personalities. I love fishing always have you are not only an inspiration but you're very entertaining. This is my favorite channel by far would love to see a lot more "one days" but I love the experimental videos as well you are definitely an artist keep it up man always love to see what you come up with thank you for entertaining me and everyone else please don't stop keep the videos coming.

Thank you for the great video! I love the testing videos

Really good video, I’m making my first lure which just so happens to be micro and this helped me choose the correct angle, I’m really excited for the finished project!

Glad to see more videos coming out! I remember how this went with normal crank-baits... I wonder if it could be official that bass like a bait that looks like a treble hook... Love your vids! Makes me laugh every time I watch them!

Love your videos i really enjoy when you actually test the baits so we get a look at the action

i absolutely love this guy

Love your videos man....you are crazy talented!!!!

He's so funny and unprofessional but in a good way (he's definitely not stupid). These videos are very informative and funny

I love these experiment videos they really help when I make my own baits

Thank you. Love your work.

I’d love to see you get a boat!! You deserve it and I think you could add a brand new side to your channel! Love your channel and your work!

Thanks dude. Keep em coming.

This is one of my favorite channels on YT

I love these experiments

You were “tight lipped” on this video 😜. This was a great idea for a video!!!

I really apreciate this experiment kind of video! I'm trying to make lures as a hobby, but mine don't usually have a good action. This helps a lot, thank you!! Cheers from Brazil.

You can keep the laundry basket setup if you can just put some window screen or some other mesh on top; alternatively, drill into a plastic bin, keeping lid intact and attach pool noodles as per the laundry basket. Lid is easy to attach/detach and functions identically to the other pen you've made. Great video!

You should do a video helping people who are just starting like weight placement, designing the bait, and things that will ruin a bait if not done perfectly that would be much appreciated haha :)

Thank you for entertaining us.

Saw these on Instagram been waiting on the video!!! Awesome work man

Finally, I was so waiting for this vid.

Well done! I enjoyed your video.

The Seatrout season just strated where I live, going my first tour next week can’t wait. Your videos have helped with the wait lol

Great video and seeing chip 🐶🐶

I love these videos !

Great recovery from earlier disasters. I watched your last video from beginning to end and when that pristine lure went long I felt your pain. I think Chip might need therapy, maybe next time you go take him with you. You could make him your therapy dog and visit others needing kindness and understanding. ONE DAY! You know your my favorite lure maker.

Nothing like going back and rewatching Marling Baits videos while sitting home for New Years.

Love your videos. This was good idea. :)

Love your vids keep em comeing

Marling baits is the best channel on the tube!!! happy Easter mate. ONTO THE NEXT BAIT!

Ahh yes, the anticipated Marling Baits Upload 🙌🏻

Happy Easter marling Stay safe you and yours. Keep chip safe.

Love you man! Thanks for videos.

I really like this type of video where you isolate one feature of a bait and test them scientifically. Btw i admit I haven't seen one of your vids in like a year, but you have gotten so much more comfortable with the videos, they feel super fluid and not awkward at all. Not that you were before, im just saying the quality has gotten better over time

Just wanna thank you for giving me such a great new hobbie, I am a recovering addict, I am 3 years sober and making baits has helped me to fill that void in my life I really thank you nate I love you like a brother and never met you!!! Thank you for giving me my happiness back! From Scott C. not Vickie lol God bless from Somerset K.Y

That little live well basket was so genius! What a cool invention😂

Loving these videos! I would like to see one where you test line tie location. Keep up the great work! I’m addicted to this channel.

I like those extra clips at the end. 👍

He inspired me to start making baits, They aren't the best, but he makes it seem so easy

No lost lures, lots of crappie, Chip footage = great video! 👍🍺🎣

Handwriting such neat you have!!
