      idk I really enjoyed it as is, just watching and from the angles you can get a very clear idea of what and how you are doing something. I dont think it really requires commentary. Up to you obviously, ill enjoy them either way :)

      Marling Baits you are good, brother. If you want to add detailed explanation, you can use the subtittles. I'm hearing impaired and not missing anything feels really good.

    @barrelofmonkeys5099 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    This one gets me deep. My grandfather always used to throw an old mouse wake bait named Mortimer. It was basically peanut shaped piece of wood with a felt like finish, a little leather strip for a tail, and a small metal bill. He caught many 5+ largemouth with it, which is big for Northern NewYork. Yours are way nicer and more detailed. Bet they are catching whoever got them and yourself some super fat chunkers man. They are super nice, I'm fully into the process and attention to detail.

    • @marlingbaits
      @marlingbaits  7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Dave Komarnicki Thank you! The power tools are great for making batches of baits, but starting out I use to make 1 lure at a time with mostly hand tools. I'd recommend this craft to anyone. Super satisfying catching fish on baits you made

    @tlalexander3 ปีที่แล้ว

    how do you know how open the joint needs to be? I just made a bluegill bait and I think I need to open it a good bit. I also need to learn how to connect the joints better. I put two eye screws and then drilled from the top before putting a wire from an old spinnerbait through it. The top part lined up perfectly, but the bottom was a little loose. So I drilled a second hole for the bottom and used a different wire for it

      Pj Nelson I epoxyed in looped and twisted wire for the middle joint after the clear coat. Making/epoxying in the looped/twisted wire for the hook hangers is part of where the camera died on a long shot. I got the magnets off of ebay. They're pretty inexpensive

Great old videos but Chelsea looked different, hmmm.
