Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.
Hey Chris! I’ve actually been using crayons for a few months now to color my baits for personal use! It saves on using the materials from my business and it really works out when you have that ugly green color from most remelts, to just chuck in a black crayon to dye it black instead of wasting all the black pigment! Good luck. And keep up the videos!
Thanks for doing these experiments!!! This has amazing potential, especially when I don’t necessarily want to have a lifetime supply of a weird color dye that I may only use a few times
Having fished multiple s in different sizes and colors, th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 this is by far my favorite. One thing to be aware of is the sided willow blade. One side is silver and the other is the green/orange shown. This is not bad, just unconventional. In terms of fishing, I have found the lure works just fine without a tail like a craw or shad. That addition is up to you. Also, the hook part where you attach the swivel snap or tie the line is a problem on baits these days, since it's able to slide up and down. However this lure seems to be tight enough that that doesn't happen often, and you can solve it by putting a thin slice of medical tube over the hook before attaching the line. Like others have said, it's really magic on a good windy day.
Amazing tutorial as usual! I am going to start lure making, have been watching as many videos, and soaking up as much info as possible so that I'll know exactly what I'll need when I start purchasing product. You have by far the most informative videos out there, and the obvious passion you have for lure craft is infectious, and makes me want to start making my own lures more than ever. This could be a way of getting by without having to spend much on pigments to start out, and pick up a couple more molds instead haha. Thanks again for all the great information you share with us, and please don't stop.
Hey Chris! Wow, it actually worked! When I first saw the title I thought you were setting yourself up to fail. But of course you nailed it again. What an awesome video. Thanks for the work you do for us! Incredible!
wow thanks for the experiment, i can get crayons at just about any shop in South Africa but plastisol colourants are hard to come by, so this is going to help me greatly.Thank you.
Just looking at the title before even clicking on the video the first thought was it's not gonna work, as soon as it sets the wax is gonna turn hard again. This really shocks me and is totally awesome! I gotta try it!
Seems like a GREAT alternative to pricey pigments! The smell leaves even bigger questions about the usability, since scent plays a large part in attracting the fish.
I didn't think the wax would work so well, but they turned out great! The Bubblegum was my favorite, you reminded me that I should go get some pink worms now haha. Awesome video
Hi! I am just getting into soft bait making. I was just wondering after all this time, has the texture changed now or are they still pretty soft and squishy to the touch? Especially if you haven’t put them in water. Thank you!
Questions how well did these baits hold up after some use since it is something that is rather different than the standard colorant systems. Did the wax in the crayons mess with the baits after a while. Was wondering if you have tired making a powder from colored pencils and tried using that to see what happens
That looks like a great color. The Okeechobee crawl was my favorite. Looks perfect. And you used crayons. Nice I always love these kind of videos fun and I love it when you prove another way to change colors with non traditional materials.
I love this! I’m always looking for new things to throw in some plastic to see what it does. And bubble gun is a Canadian favourite! Have you ever thought of throng to get a clear mold? I think it would be neat to watch what happend son the inside
I've got a question that I need to send you some pictures for. But I got a big bag of mixed baits and 2 of the ribbon tails have some very stiff heads. It looks like a hand made bait that I've never seen and you can see some lamination marks where it switches to a much softer plastic. Have you ever seen or done that before or is that even possible?
Chris i want to know how to buy your custom lures because i from malaysia i dont know how to buy your lures i want to try fishing peacok bass with your lures
Well I'm 'GOB SMACKED' I would have never thought that the wax would act like that! I can just imagine the BIGMOUTHS looking for colouring books😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣. Absolutely brilliant video thank you for sharing & take care my friend 👍😷👍🏴
thanks for the video and the idea of crayons. my only question is, it seems the crayons dont go very far in that you might get 3-4 cups of plastic and the crayon is gone. so how cost effective are crayons really vs buying pigments?
Oh I have no idea and that is completely beside the point, just a fun experiment as a bait maker.. unintended to be a real world alternative solution, but they do work very nicely.
This is badass lol if you buy one of those big boxes of crayons the color combinations could be endless would be a great way to do some testing before investing in higher priced pigments. I have a question do you use any scents on any of your plastics? Perhaps making your own and putting them on a couple and going to fish with them would be a good experiment.
is the wax really blending in with the plastisol? also i really think a floating test is in order as well since you would think the wax would make them float more then without crayons
I have do it molds and I have a Gary Yamamoto 5 inch mold and the worms always end up shrinking or have air in them do you know why this keeps accruing
Hello mate .. i have been watching and learning from you a lot. I was wondering about the price of an aluminum mold. Could you mention price range min to max that i could have an idea? Thanks and please keep doing new things that we can learn.😊
Great video Chris. I enjoy your channel . A couple of ?'s Do the worms smell like crayons? How was the flexibility of the worms in cold water? Can't wait for the next video.
You are always doing the coolest stuff. I was not expecting these results! :O I think that sunshine flake would look beautiful in a clear shell with maybe a chartreuse behind it, maybe some yellows or lime greens of some sort?
Do you know how it holds up to the heat while fishing on your boat? Will it bleed some of the colors on to a surface like a boat deck? But it's amazing what you did. The colors are awesome. Thanks.
Paraffin is the wax that is used in crayons and takes a long time to biodegrade. Now some are made with a wax made from soybeans which biodegrades faster. it would be interesting to see how each holds up in lures. (I believe the ones you used are of the paraffin variety). Interesting experiment... Let us know how they hold up fishing.
the only thing is price compared to the dye? was thinking when cools the bait would be firmer and seperate a bit when cool. like brittle. nice work!!!!!
Who knew haha..which were your favorites??
Your my favorite TH-camr
@@jamesnixonbaseball9114 🙏🙏
Next video you should see about trying to make a trick worm with markers
I wonder if it would like mix the colors in a cool way and make a tie die kind of worm or creature bait
Gimme 5 or 10 and I'll have ur answer 😁😁 :me looks 26 min well we better add another 10min to that lmao

thats awesoe
If you've done laminates, does the color bleed?
@@cant_hit_nuttingaming3464 so far I have used black and brown and blue, so far they haven’t bled on me! Good luck!

That’s awesome! Make sure to do a follow up with durability, action, etc.
The first worm colour with black crayon and orange holo flake gives me Mepps Black Fury vibes 🔥
2 mins 2 mins well worth it "mighty ducks". When ducks fly ducks fly together. A favorite of my childhood movies.
Haha yes!!
Yes I knew I wasnt the only one that got it! Ducks fly together!
Hey Chris! Wow, it actually worked! When I first saw the title I thought you were setting yourself up to fail. But of course you nailed it again. What an awesome video. Thanks for the work you do for us! Incredible!

Freaking perfect! Crayola Craw!!! ooh ooh!....CRAWola lol oh jeez...
Hahahaha
Crawn

The Bubblegum was my favorite, you reminded me that I should go get some pink worms now haha. Awesome video
Awesome video, I just watched the salt vs no salt video, you should test how crayons affect how the soft plastic sinks and its action in the water
Awesome! Who would a thunk! Thanks for sharing and plan on trying that!
Thanks for watching
I was pleasantly surprised at how well they turned out. Good job!
Great idea 🤯👍!!!! I had no idea. Beautiful colors
Hi! I am just getting into soft bait making. I was just wondering after all this time, has the texture changed now or are they still pretty soft and squishy to the touch? Especially if you haven’t put them in water. Thank you!
Wow great job Chris, where did you get those open pour ribbon tail molds.
Questions how well did these baits hold up after some use since it is something that is rather different than the standard colorant systems. Did the wax in the crayons mess with the baits after a while. Was wondering if you have tired making a powder from colored pencils and tried using that to see what happens
Where do you get the stuff to make baits
check ouy my "guide" video..tons of links and info
That looks like a great color. The Okeechobee crawl was my favorite. Looks perfect. And you used crayons. Nice I always love these kind of videos fun and I love it when you prove another way to change colors with non traditional materials.
Hey where can I buy that ecto craw mold I’m in love with it
Angling Ai molds
Love the black orange flake worm! Seems like it would be a killer stained water bait
Your excitement in this video is absolutely the best. Lol keep it up my guy. Great lures too
Haha thanks sir
Where did you buy your molds?
Angling Ai molds
I love this! I’m always looking for new things to throw in some plastic to see what it does. And bubble gun is a Canadian favourite! Have you ever thought of throng to get a clear mold? I think it would be neat to watch what happend son the inside
Did a whole video with special clear molds .. check it out
What plastisol do you use and is that one avalibel in europe?
how did you deal with the re-heat? Crayons have a flash point far lower than 350 so I am amazed nothing smoked or caught fire.
I really learn a lot from you,i work in hair and wire,but you make me think outside the box,thanks
Happy to hear that!

Possible to recreate or did someone just make a mistake
Chris i want to know how to buy your custom lures because i from malaysia i dont know how to buy your lures i want to try fishing peacok bass with your lures
I only sell on my official Instagram account but unfortunately I do not ship my lures internationally
@@WorldsWorstFishing ouhh ok for telling me🤗
Watch you fill the molds was so satisfying for some odd reason 😂😂
"2 minutes, well worth it" its gotta be Mighty Ducks, cant be anything else. Also as a complete hockey buff, loved the quote thank you ❤
Hahahaha yep
Wu! Wu! Kenny Wu!
Well I'm 'GOB SMACKED' I would have never thought that the wax would act like that! I can just imagine the BIGMOUTHS looking for colouring books😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣. Absolutely brilliant video thank you for sharing & take care my friend 👍😷👍🏴
What injector do you use? I have a do-it molds smaller size one and have the worlds trouble using it
hmm, was watching Marling baits make some soft baits and he mentioned check out Chris over there. This is pretty cool, glad i am here.
So fun! I used crayons to color my homemade skate wax back in the 90s! 🤙

I have used a polyurethane automotive paint for coloring before. It seems to have worked just fine.
Bloody amazing mate.
Thank ya
I am shocked that crayons worked so well. I love these experimental videos!
Thanks so much for watching
is the wax really blending in with the plastisol? also i really think a floating test is in order as well since you would think the wax would make them float more then without crayons
There appeared to be no film or layer of any material on the surface of the plastic, the baits actually feel very normal
Did they change the smell of the bait?
I have do it molds and I have a Gary Yamamoto 5 inch mold and the worms always end up shrinking or have air in them do you know why this keeps accruing
probably getting air pockets since that mold is cheap and not vented well..my sons name is also Landon!
Where you get the liquid plastic brand is
Dead On Plastix
Do you put under heat
substitute shredded crayon wrapper for flake ftw.
Man those craws look amazing!!!! For fun videos like this you should collaborate with Norm and have him test and fish with them!
That would be cool!
That is an awesome color. "rootbeer" for sure
Hello mate .. i have been watching and learning from you a lot. I was wondering about the price of an aluminum mold. Could you mention price range min to max that i could have an idea? Thanks and please keep doing new things that we can learn.😊
Gotta admit the red white and blue hand poured worms look awesome
Awesome stuff bro!!!
Try those orange flakes with a green pumpkin. I have an old pit boss in that color that has done well.
I wasn't sure the color saturation was going to do so well. They came out great. Do they smell any different? Like melted wax / crayons.
I love those movies the quotes from. Recently introduced my son to them and he's loving them too.
Awesome, another great video!
🙏🙏
That's cool, I'm going to have to grab some now!
I often use oil based artists paint as pigment and that goes well
Go for it!
the punch craw is amazing with the brown swirl in the green pumpkin.
they are really nice
Great video Chris. I enjoy your channel . A couple of ?'s
Do the worms smell like crayons? How was the flexibility of the worms in cold water?
Can't wait for the next video.
They actually did smell like crayons, did not do any sort of water test
The smell leaves even bigger questions about the usability, since scent plays a large part in attracting the fish.
Add some fish attractant to the mix....might work
What about the smell, does it turn the fish off?
That carnation pink is one heck of a good bubblegum color.
it really is...even the next day they look great
You are the best lures maker I have seen
Thanks so much
Curious of the longevity of these, have any after three years? lol just got into open pouring and want to know if this is actually liable
Have you ever thought of using koolaid as a colourant? I have used it to die wool for tying jigs
You are always doing the coolest stuff. I was not expecting these results! :O
I think that sunshine flake would look beautiful in a clear shell with maybe a chartreuse behind it, maybe some yellows or lime greens of some sort?
It can make some interesting color combos or color enrichment
Those ribbon tail worm look awesome especially the new ones
what is the plastic/rubber?
Dead On Plastix plastisol
loving the craw and pink.
Can you color with the lures?
Did u let it air dry ??
Do you know any 10 cavity stick bait molds?
Fat guys maybe
Do you know how it holds up to the heat while fishing on your boat? Will it bleed some of the colors on to a surface like a boat deck? But it's amazing what you did. The colors are awesome. Thanks.
Did the wax make them float
Actually no..the plastic base is sinking by nature
This was a really cool experiment. Handy to know it works in a pinch.
Indeed
That black with orange flake is a very good color on lake Champlain
the claws seem firmer not as floppy nice job, do the tubs seem to come off the tube easier, I was also thinking to add red to that pink ( bubble gum )
I been using them for years. I make a sluggio for a guy using them. The only way I could get the right color.
Haha that's awesome!!
Do you need to vacuum them or is it fine
Have you tried food coloring? Ritz dye? India ink?
I have to take a break from making baits. I have a little plastic burn on my arm. So I'm putting together some skirts for my jigs and spinnerbats
Oh damn..sorry to hear
They look amazing!!
I bet that the orange flake would work very well with a pearl blue plastisol
Yes please do more with the bright neon ish flakes. I'm a sucker for the neon ish colors on lures. They get me every time. Lol 🎣🇺🇸🎣
Oooh laundry is back!! You know its gunna be a good video if you see the washer and dryer in the first minute 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
AWESOME!!!!!!!!! TY TY TY FOR DOING PINK!!!!!!!!! Luv it!!!!!!

Awesome learning new things tks.

need to land some of the old creepy crawler molds for bait making
that looks awesome, damn nice work.
imagine actually saying cray-on or crown instead of just cran
im not typically on this channel but glad i clicked good job
I actually like that orange flake in the black worm. Almost gives it that root beer look without a brownish base
👍👍
the only thing is price compared to the dye? was thinking when cools the bait would be firmer and seperate a bit when cool. like brittle. nice work!!!!!
Oh wow...I love those ribbon tail worms....how do I purchase some of them...please tell me
Can you make some kind of lure for trout?
