    For all of the people who can’t afford or are just starting to throw big baits, Savage Gear has some excellent baits for unreal prices. That said, not all of their baits are fantastic. I typically stick to their plastic line through baits and their plastic RTF ( ready to fish ) baits. Always in stock at Tackle Warehouse. Stock hooks are strong and sticky sharp!

    Thanks Geoff - I’m new to throwing big glides here in Texas, but love all the footage and info you provide. I have purchased a small variety of price ranges to try from the $40 Trick shad to the most expensive being the Greenleaf Imposter at $250. I get the cost for small batch custom baits and do want to support small American businesses. But definitely see the “out of stock” sign a lot. Thinking o might want to attend one of the gatherings or shows I’ve seen you go to.

    I understand the money but the drop thing is a major issue. If a person works a 9 to 5, they don't have time to sit on a computer a hope to get a swimbait when it drops. Then you have to deal with the person that resales them for 3 times the original price.

    Most bait makers (Glides, swims, cranks, soft plastic, etc) start out as a hobby. It gets addictive fast. Then you give and sell some to friends. You show your work online and people say, "that's great how much". They use bait and show pics of the monsters they are catching on it. More people want to buy your stuff. You work 9-5 at your "real" job, and come home to make baits till midnight. You start falling behind on orders. Pretty tough decision whether to quit your 100K day job and make baits full time. And of course, then it's a job then and not fun any more.

I throw a ton of normal glides and do all my fishing from my Kayak or from the bank .. a lot of my fishing areas are shallow with max depth of about 7-10 feet but from the bank im looking at max probably 4… if you were using the klash 9 would you use the hi -float model with no lip inserted for this type of area ?

    I'm a custom crappie bait and lure maker in plastic and hand tied I've never seen or heard of anything like what I design and make and years of testing I stopped making anything for customers anymore a few years ago because of the complaints about prices and availability . I just make them for myself now. I even had a plan if the customer would send back baits that had caught many many fish and were rough or torn I would remelt and form the baits at no cost other than shipping my handtied jigs lasted about 200 to 225 crappie before it started to get wear on them and customers could send them in and I would replace for free.

    So true it took me 30tries to make my bait right. Then another 10 to get situated more production style. Then weighting better and getting weights in molds. Then water temp changes screw it all up again from floating at lake to fast sink in pool. Paint was another experience learning the layers and scale colors lines are the base color of bait so usually black then white right over black. Seems like a waste lol. Been a fun excursion but figuring out first bait took months and hundreds of hrs of r&d. Honestly no other bait works as well as mine besides that new clutch chop bait. That thing works really well and doesn’t bugger up with diff cadences. Turns a bit much so like catches hooks if don’t keep line tight but that’s the only flaw. I make my hinges adjustable so it’ll turn chop or glide in seconds. Anyways great video you’re entertaining to watch.

    People buy crankbait blanks all the time because their hobby is painting lures for their use or sale. A swimbait blank is really no different, just bigger. It would make sense to practice your painting skill on blanks rather than a $300 canvas. I have my share of original baits, but I’ve also played with painting blanks. I’ve talked to many young anglers that there is no way their parents are funding a swimbait collection, But they might fund a blank and a rattle can

    Two questions on this... are margins not good enough to hire a helper or two and increase productivity? Do lure makers who no longer have the time to keep up with production, marketing and selling ever sell their business? I'm not one of these people to get upset about missing out on a drop (I've never bought a lure that way) but I would think if the margins were good more lure makers would expand production

    My Magdrafts catch more then my battle shads. Chad shads catch more than my hinkles. In fact I have an S waver 200 that has caught more big bass last year then all others. To each his own but in a lot of cases the mass produced less expensive baits catch just as many fish if not more. 450.00 for a Roman made mother is insane. That bait is not worth that kinda money.

      I’ve had great luck with the WCZ baits. I’m just wondering if it’s possible you have more confidence throwing the cheaper baits closer to cover, fishing them deeper, etc. Sometimes I get nervous throwing around more expensive glides lol I lost a phoneyshad last year; thought I was gonna be sick lol

    The only thing I can’t stand is when guys buy up a bunch of lures and put them directly on eBay for
    + $250.
    You are a scumbag if you do this.

    Because bait makers like it this way. So they can charge unreal $ on a poured plastic lure. All about the $. They been like this since they came out. Its a $ pit. Lets be real.

    Throwback Baits 👇 never had the Lemonade ones available when the Homeless fisherman posted the video I went to buy gone or soldout not even available 😂😅😊 throwback baits throwback ur money and for the small glide baits 150.00 is crazy! If you loose that u cant just buy another too! Thats the biggest issue they should do what MTB did witht he insurance if u loose w e they sent you it no questions asked. Yall would make mad money with a subscription and doing a discount w a insuarnce on siad item.

    There is those with intellect and there are rhose who wont have intellect. Every serious fisherman that is saying the prices is way too much, are of the second category.
    People who DO understand time is money, and sees that that special bait has took a long time to make, not even mentioning the R&D, dont talk shit of the price. They are to expensive for me, most of them but i still dont dump complaints on videos on here. You are in USA, there is plenty of folks from the first category and thus is why you get sich comments. Here in Sweden, lure builders dont, EVER get such condescending shit written to them. Never have i seen something like that!
    I suggest movin to Europe if you want those dumb comments on your videos..

    It's a status symbol and the bait companies don't give a rip about the consumer. If their bait was so good, then they'd make them more readily available.

      I think you’re completely ignoring what he literally talked about in this video. Bait makers obviously make and sell their products for business.
      If they don’t make profit off of it that’s no longer a business and I think people forget about that and immediately get emotional over the price because either you can’t afford it or not used to spending that kind of money on a bait.
      The time and the investment they spent to develop the prototype before making it a production model, then cost to make the molds, cost of materials, cost to ship, cost for workers if they have to hire people because they are not mass produced in China they are either made in Japan or USA it cost lot more money to make, shipping and etc….. there are many factors that make the price of products.
