- The process of making a clear fishing lure is very detailed. In this video I walk through step by step how to make one of these custom baits. This transparent glass fish is modeled somewhat off of a Cyanogaster, recently discovered in Brazil. This amazing freshwater fish has beautiful colors and makes a really awesome minnow stick bait with a natural gliding action. I think this handmade lure would be effective on freshwater species such as bass, crappie and trout as well as smaller saltwater species such as tuna and snapper.

If you do something, you do it excellent. Like this one. You show new ideas and great skills with each of the lures. Congrats.
Thank you very much, I really appreciate your kind words!
@@zimmtex can you show where you buy your grinding tips and grinder
I only watch you and Marlin Baits as luremakers, usually every evening before bed and my other half couldn’t care less about it, but when she saw your baits she admitted it being a beautiful piece of artwork. With that said, you’re doing great 😊
Thank you, I appreciate both of your support !
Agree with you.
I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for the content that I have enjoyed over the years. I have learned so much from you and others on youtube.

Would definitely love to see you make that carved bass. It would look amazing as a backdrop in you vids. I especially like your use of different mediums. Keep up the creativity. 👍
Thank you for watching & commenting, I appreciate it!
*Great item. First cast out of the package caught a nice bass. Pulls smooth in the water and sets up nicely immediately upon retrieval. Worth adding to your tackle box.*
Thanks?! I appreciate you watching!
Love your work Zimmy. Always creative and something new to learn. Thanks for showing how to make the bones. Next one I vote for a Shad GlideBait but do a wooden bass sculpture too in the near future please.

Hey, Mike. I don't think I'm patient enough to make a bait like this, but I greatly admire the ingenuity, creativity, and attention to detail you amply demonstrated here. Hope this innovative lure catches lots of mountain trout for you!
As for the "popularity contest," I'm currently making a 9" saltwater glidebait, and I'm fascinated by this type of lure. So I vote for Option #2. Thanks.
I really appreciate your support! I do share your love for glide baits; thanks for your vote!
Well, that was something else. Absolutely stunning. Love it!

Like the bass carving idea, thanks for posting, was wondering where you went.
Thank you for watching! I've just had a lot of stuff going on at work & home. I'm always working on lures when I can.
Beautiful,,awesome
Many thanks!
Since gliders are my favourite to fish with the shad gets my vote
Excellent, thank you!
DAMN! The best vid yet, have to make this one...
Many thanks!
Very impressive
Thank you very much!
Great lure,would love to see a bass sculpture.
Thank you, I appreciate your vote & support!
Nice video. Looking to get out and make some more fishing videos soon. 🎣🐟
Thanks! Spring is upon us for sure!
That was amazing to watch. I was considering doing a cnc lure of some sort and couldn't take my eyes off this.
Go for it! Thanks for watching!
@@zimmtex Not sure, but I think software can take a 3d lure in a file and insert a hollow object that would simulate an air bladder. Have the printer print the lure and just not fill in the air bladder with plastic. then you could drill on the bottom, insert weights and epoxy them in.
Wow
Awesome
True ART
Thank you!
creative crazy lure :D
Thank you!
Great job😍 keep going My bro I love what u make
u r a big artist like Van Gogh
Wow, thank you!
I like it, subscribed!
Welcome to the channel & thank you very much for subscribing!
Istimewa👏👍
Thank you!
AWESOME!!!😀😀😀😀
Thanks!
I vote Glidebait,
First time viewer, I enjoyed your video
Welcome to the channel and thank you for voting! Glad to have you here!
Awesome job! Im a life-long fly tyer, but my 14 year old's losing hard baits left and right so Ive been hand carving some for him. Even with my arts background, you can only do so much hand painting a piece of wood. Ive been checking out some lure making videos and after seeing this, I will watch more of yours. Great job!
Glad to hear from a fellow lure maker. Thank you for watching.
@@zimmtex FOr sure, great vids. Can you recommend an airbrush and compressor setup for someone with no experience? lol Thinking of going to the next step.
@@duanevigue1603 I started with a Master airbrush and a pancake compressor from the hardware store. You can check out links to the products I use on my website (linked in the description).
#2 shad glide bait sounds 👌
Good deal, thanks for voting!
Shad, nice show again.
Thank you!
Shad Glide Bait for sure..!!!
So far, glide bait is in the lead. Thanks for watching!
I would love to see you make some of the old metal lipped lures. I.e. bombers and especially the hellbender.
That's a great idea, I'll put it on my list!
Absolutely beautiful work! I am amazed at your craftsmanship, I truly appreciate what you do and hope some how I can replicate it on my own! Thank you!
Thank you very much! Best of luck to you on your lure making journey!
Cool dude 👍
Thank you!
I love your work! Maybe the Shad glide for the next one. I’m having difficulty describing my idea for future builds. First a lure that lays on its side with an up and down motion instead of side to side. Maybe mimicking an injured baitfish on the fall or slow retrieve.
Also employ this up and down motion to mimic a flatfish like a small flounder.
Have not seen any bait makers intentionally make a lure with a “dolphin-like” tail action.
Thank you, great suggestion! I appreciate your support!
Bieautiful work's
Thank you!
Nice job, you have gold fingers😊👍👍👍
Many thanks!
seems like safety wire (lockwire) and gundam sprues can come in handy, very much enjoyed the vid
For sure! Thanks for watching!
I'd like to see a rainbow trout Jointed swim bait!!!
Well, I may just happen to have something like that in the works. Stay tuned....
A Shad glide bait would be great for the next video
Will do, thanks for watching!
Hey man, love your stuff had this playing as i'm working on my next vid. I think you should go for the bass sculpture, mainly because its similar to what i'm working on haha keep up the good content man!
Thank you, sounds fun!
Meus parabéns esta isca artificial artesanal ficou show de bola.
Thank you very much!
Sick!
Thanks for watching!
Wooow great Job! A crankbait would be nice to see :).
Thank you!
Cool !!!
Thanks!
Vote #1…need a good crank bait for spring
Thanks for your vote!
it was a really beautiful lure. I might end up using it as a keychain instead of fishing.
It's funny you say that because I actually do have lures that I use as keychains!
Since I'm an Irish sculptor who also likes making my own lures, I wouldn't mind seeing you sculpt a bass.
Thanks for commenting and watching!
Shad Glide would sick
Thanks!
Try StarBond glues. They offer a kit which consist of thin, med, and thick. The packages come with several pin point tips and tip cleaner. I keep mine stored in the fridge while not in use. Also might like to try Great Planes Milled Fiberglass. Super strong instead of using baking soda. I have built model rc planes and this stuff became a game changer. Being disabled I have enjoyed your shows. Keep up the good work
Thanks for the tip! I've never heard of milled fiberglass; that sounds really interesting. I appreciate your comments and support!
GREAT Content dude, Nice information. AWESOME !!
Im from Indonesiaa hallo Mantabb
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you for stopping by and for watching!
I like marling baits channel but you on the other hand make your lures more unique when it comes to style and the lure itself. I give you prompts!!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy my builds!
Glide bait please. Maybe one with a tail lip for further gliding. Would love to see that. Keep up the good work
Thanks for your input and for watching!
Another great video. Where can I find the screw eyes you use? I don't see them listed on your website. I am looking for 5mm saltwater kind. TIA
Thank you! I actually make my own twist wire eyes from stainless steel lock wire.
bass sculpture!!!
Right on, thank you!
NICE
Thanks!
monsieur bonjour , travail d orfèvre moi aussi je les fabriquent moi même mais les vôtres sont des leurres de bijoutier respect monsieur , bravo !!
Thank you very much for your support!
esta precioso
Thank you!
Came here from your short. You got me! Subbed
Welcome aboard! Thanks for letting me know; I just recently started making shorts.
@@zimmtex well it worked. It was a good short in itself but it really made me want to watch the full thing. I watch marling and lots of fishing vids, but I haven't seen your vids before that short. Good luck.
Lookout Strike King ,Rebel and Lucky Craft Etc....You guys have some catching up to do. You have mad skills I thought I did pretty good air brushing my baits until I saw this.Great job!!!!! SOOOOO how much are you asking for something like this and can I buy therm online?
Wow, thank you very much! I'm sorry to say that I'm not able to make lures for sale right now. I'm focused on this channel and don't have the time for much else. However if that changes I will let you know. Thanks for your interest and support!
You can paint the bones with some red like the the lower part it will be great
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Looks amazing love the content. I tinker around with baits myself and been debating on trying this lure. I do have a question? How stable is this lure if you burn it in like reeling it in fast?
This one is honestly not incredibly stable at faster speeds. I think it could use a larger air pocket. One of those trial and error things. It does fine at slower speeds. Sometime you just gotta fish a lure the way it wants to be fished.
@zimmtex yeah, that is the truth. Keep up the awsome work love videos buddy.
I'd go with smaller crankbaits for me. Also can you do make and catches for each video if possible.
I appreciate your comment. It's finally warming up enough the fish aren't so lethargic. Thanks for watching!
Amazing work! I purchased the GIRAFVINYL Holographic Heat Transfer Vinyl, but I cannot remove the back film to apply it to my lures. Any special trick?
I know it can be tough; I use an xacto knife to pick them apart. Also, there is a clear top film that will need to be removed as well. I usually remove the back layer, stick it to my lure (loosely), peel off the clear top layer, press, heat, press again (with padding). I had a great suggestion from a subscriber to get heat resistant silicone to use for heat pressing.
@@zimmtex Thank you so much for your reply!
what was that contraption you used with the truecoat?
It's an epoxy mixer, typically used by rod makers. I have a link to it on my website: www.ZimmtexLures.com/productlinks
Are these Split shot weights lead? Im looking for something like this with tungsten hope you know what i mean.
Yes, I am using lead split shot for this lure.
For next shad glidebait please
Thank you for voting!
I think it would be really cool to make a resin bluegill or shiner multi-jointed swim bait molded from a real bluegill or shiner
Interesting idea, thanks for the suggestion!
