If nobody never told you this before I will ,, your work is a blessing to us fisherman the time you give on making the lure is outstanding , an the amount of detail you put into the lure is amazing I just wanted to let you know that I really really do enjoy watching your videos an I wish you well fellow angler ,,, peace ✌🏼
One of the best "how to videos" I have found! Love the addition of the dog, the different angles and how it was kept so clean, simple and organised. It has inspired me to do a batch of lures.
A video before we were all blessed with Nate’s awesome humor and personality>>> still a great watch Spoiler alert: the dislikes to this video were from people who were hoping for his hilarious commentary and didn’t get it on this video
Thanks for making videos like this, so helpful. I live seeing all the little tips and tricks you developed to replicate a lure more than once. Making a bunch at a time very efficiently. They look awesome!
197 people disliked this??? I think maybe they are envious? Great work man. I fished for 40 of my 44 years. I use to fish a lot of bass tournaments. Several baits you’ve made are really good. Great job 👍🏻
You've gotten a lot more comfortable in front of the camera and your dialog is tops. I wouldn't want you to change anything with the current videos, but an ASMR video thrown in the mix once in a while wouldn't piss anyone off. You edit this style very well.
Glue with contact cement some 1/8 thick strips of leather to your vise jaws and it will not leave dents in wood when clamping tight. Thanks for sharing.
Been watchin all of your lure builds and it has been very inspirational...great story on your beginnings to where you’re at now..... can see how your dog tries to get your attention when you’re into your builds.. gud dog 👍🏼... mines leave the area when I’m in garage and use any kind of equipment or electric tools..lol... keep it up .. 👍🏼
Hello I'm new to your TH-cam channel I love Pier fishing 🎣 and I love jerk baits and trying new fishing rigs and baits I love this video on how you make your jerk bait luers there beautiful and amazing fishing 🎣 powers my friend fishing for me is special and beautiful I have lots of beautiful moments with my dad fishing together and spending beautiful moments together I just resntly Lost my dad to colon cancer my dad passed away on Christmas morning
You make some awesome looking baits!! How about making shit that actually catches fish and sale them cause you attention to detail and your ability to put it on a lure is amazing
Muy bueno , eres buenísimo, que fácilmente trabajas .,una pasada gracias por hacer estos vídeos , espero hacer uno parecido , un saludo desde Barcelona España ...
Thank you for providing us with information and techniques I from tracker your .I hope I can get some of the equipment that you use in your work and thank you
Bud why no talking while you are working? I really enjoy watching and listening to you while you are making baits. You do amazing works of art in every bait! Thanks for sharing and have a great day!
As always great attention to detail! Looks like you made a few changes to your shop as well; gotta love a "Shop Dog"! Beautiful Shepard, haven't seen it mentioned, what"s your buddy's name? Stay focused, know that a lot of us live vicariously through you and your skills...
How did you get into custom lures? We’re you born into it or was it just a passion turned into a career? Your designs and builds are some of the best I’ve ever seen, the detail and accuracy are just unbelievable.
Marling Baits that’s awesome and thanks for the replies! I would love to buy some of your baits. I was very surprised at how reasonable your prices are for the quality of work you produce.
Wiedermal eine sehr gute Arbeit von dir 💪 Würde gerne mal einen kaufen um zu gucken wie man hier in Deutschland damit fängt 🙂 Mach weiter so du bist ein sehr guter Handwerker 👍
You might be able to speed things up if you turn some of them on a lathe. I would think it should speed up the process quite a bit. For me it would be easy to turn them instead of carving with a chisel. Just a thought.
Hello Marling, greetings from Peru... once again, I was watching your video and I have some questions for you. When you applied the sand seal, how many coats do you usually apply? do you sand the plug between each coat? How much time do you let them dry? Same questions when you apply polyurethane. Are sand seal and polyurethane water based? How far can you cast one of those plugs? Thank you in advance for your help.
He answered the question its about 5 comments down the page... he posted the answer 2 months before antonio999us asked, anyway the guy has pretty much showed you his entire process im sure you can put your thinking cap on, stop being lazy and experiment for yourself and work out how many coats the lure needs by trial and error. Jeez some people these days want everything served to them on a silver platter and not have to lift a single finger...
and some people are mentally wired differently to you mate. his questions were legitimate and helpful to others who think differently than you do. instead of trolling them, offer more helpful answers.
you might have this tool now days but i dont think i have seen you use it i dont know how to share a link but this is what its called - Eastwood Pro Mini Angle Belt Sander 3/4" X 20-1/2" - i think it could be handy with the slack side of the belt.
la verdad me saco el sombrero, un señor artesano sos hombre , yo aca aen argentina intento copiarte con todo respeto , lo q no se es toda las clases de pegmento q usas alla aca no se consigue nada un gran abrazo y espero mas videos tuyos una gran admiracion
Do you thin the createx paint? My droplet size is fairly large. Trying to figure out if it's my air brush or if I should thin the paint some. I want a finer fade between colors on my spoons.
Gus Tanner I Only thin Createx when Doing detail work that needs low PSI, and when I do I use the High Performance Reducer. Have an Iwata Eclipse HP-CS airbrush, keep it really clean, and raise the PSI when I'm not getting good atomization.
Marling Baits no problem. If you run another batch of those minnow baits I'd love about a half dozen in some other colors. Just let me know if you ever do that.

Well said!
I about died watching your dog trap his tail so he could bite it! He's a genius.
Back in the 80's I made different style balsa crankbaits & spinnerbaits from my homemade molds. You do amazing work on your lures.
One of the best "how to videos" I have found! Love the addition of the dog, the different angles and how it was kept so clean, simple and organised. It has inspired me to do a batch of lures.
Hey mate. I made me first lure today. It come out alright thanks to your videos

Trevor Froese thank you! Always happy to share some lure making insight.
Btw the pink and green rainbow trout styled bait is just stunning the color pops on it. Im extremely impressed with that one as well as the others
197 people disliked this??? I think maybe they are envious? Great work man. I fished for 40 of my 44 years. I use to fish a lot of bass tournaments. Several baits you’ve made are really good. Great job 👍🏻
Watching this video proves that the price for the baits are MORE than fair. Glad to see someone doing something awesome with there hands.
J&J Bassing Thanks!

Golf club makers have a vice where you can drop in rubber inserts, they use that to hold graphite and steel shafts

How did you get into custom lures? We’re you born into it or was it just a passion turned into a career? Your designs and builds are some of the best I’ve ever seen, the detail and accuracy are just unbelievable.
Thank you! Started making baits about 6 years ago in my bedroom at my parents house. I moved out and just kept working at making it my job.
Marling Baits that’s awesome and thanks for the replies! I would love to buy some of your baits. I was very surprised at how reasonable your prices are for the quality of work you produce.
Awesome! Thanks again Damon

Great.. Good fish and very very nice the dog ...it remembered me my dog black that no live more😪😪... Congratulation for your channel!! Bye bye
Wowww! very nice work ...you are a master
Thank you!
I like your can opener... it looks just like a file. Where did you get a can opener like that?
you might have this tool now days but i dont think i have seen you use it i dont know how to share a link but this is what its called - Eastwood Pro Mini Angle Belt Sander 3/4" X 20-1/2" - i think it could be handy with the slack side of the belt.
So what kind of fish are you trying to get with these lures???? Very nice job by the way!!!!!
la verdad me saco el sombrero, un señor artesano sos hombre , yo aca aen argentina intento copiarte con todo respeto , lo q no se es toda las clases de pegmento q usas alla aca no se consigue nada un gran abrazo y espero mas videos tuyos una gran admiracion
What timber di u use and whats another way to thread hooks through the hole bait in 1 peice so they are strong
Honestly. Your At A Different Level!
Sos un gran trabajador te ganas la vida de lo que te gusta crack
Awesome Guy ✌ Very Good Job Man ! i need one of this Lure , where can i Buy it ? Greets from Germany
Great vids, inspiration for me to make my own lures. Thank you for the content
So glad to see another post! Are you going to start posting more often now?
Nolen Johnson Thank you and yesir! I'm shooting the next video already
Ok I have a few more questions. What do you use to stick the hooks in and what’s the top coat?
the central hole is a function of the center of gravity ?. Do you fill it with glue only? Do you put weight?
Nice job ,Thanks for sharing
Art that's all it is
Do you thin the createx paint? My droplet size is fairly large. Trying to figure out if it's my air brush or if I should thin the paint some. I want a finer fade between colors on my spoons.
Gus Tanner I Only thin Createx when Doing detail work that needs low PSI, and when I do I use the High Performance Reducer. Have an Iwata Eclipse HP-CS airbrush, keep it really clean, and raise the PSI when I'm not getting good atomization.
Thanks and great video. Can I please ask your a question? What video editor do you use? Thanks again and take care. Greetings from Toronto, Canada
Muy bueno tu trabajo y el perro un compañero. Seguí asi
Great job great lures

Chris Livingston t
Chris Livingston
Awesome! Look great!
Jeff Kindy Fishing Thank you!
they came out good
Great video very entertaining,What kind of fish is this lure for??
Love your work!
Cheri Doyle thank you!
Just curious, how long does it take to create one bait from start to finish?
Just got the shad minnow bait in the mail. Really nice. Beautiful paint jobs. Do you do custom orders?
Scott Norvell Thank you! I will do custom paint jobs on certain baits in the future, but as of now no I don't.
Marling Baits no problem. If you run another batch of those minnow baits I'd love about a half dozen in some other colors. Just let me know if you ever do that.
Scott Norvell awesome! I'll be making more, so I'll contact you before I get to painting.
Marling Baits perfect. No rush at all. I love handcrafted baits but I don't have the talent. Cheers.
True talent
He is a god at making them
How do you determine how much material will be taken off with the chamfer? Is it always a 1/4” or 1/8” in from the edge?
