As a fellow bait builder, I have to thank you for your endless supply of inspiration. I have followed your work for years and have probably seen every one you have posted, both on TH-cam and other sites as well. Yet your work never seems to hit a wall or get boring due to your innovation and brilliant craftsmanship. Thanks again Mikko! You've done it again!
I've been making lures from recycling trash and stuff found on the beach. Already doing line through jigs and minnows for a few months, so it seems the idea is floating around but your video is the first I've seen. At the time I was out of wire... necessity is the mother of invention!

Realy cool lure idea and it swims really nicely. If you still would like to work on it then a small propeller at the end of the lure could be a nice touch.
To build a vacuum pump you need n old refrigerator pump, determine the high and low side. The hig side is the smallest tube or the one blowing out. Pinch it off about 98% . It hasbto exhale to inhale. Now yo can finb fittings to tap the low side. Pinch it off and seal it. Now ad your tap hook up hose to any sellable container i have used 5 gallon can with a wood lid that i covered with rubber inertube. My vac tank cost less than thirty dollars.
Hi I've made line through big poppers and stickbaits for GT and other pelagic fish, there's one thing I am struggling at the moment, when the line gets thicker the connection between the line and lure loses flexibility due to a solid connection rather than a ringed connection like most of lures have. I'm talking about leader lines around 200lb-400lb, even though all trolling skirted lures have the same way (line running thru the lure) but they are trolled straight not twitched by rod. It does get boring when the lure head doesn't face side to side especially using stickbaits they still catch fish but not fun. Still thinking of an idea for that. There's a type of lures called Borg lures that you can still use split rings to and there is a enough size hole for it to slide up.
Hey man! Amazing video as usual! Cool to see a kind of bait you don't see every day. I just started making baits, and so far I've been using old skateboards for material. I get it for free from my skateboarding friends and it's great stuff: multicoloured maple plywood, super strong and hard. Have you ever used it? Would love to hear/see what you would make of it!
@@SolarfallBaits i really like the fact that it is multicoloured plywood. Usually try to make at least parts of it just be clearcoated to let it shine though. Dunno if it catches fish, but i like it! :D Parts of then are also bent, which I'm going to try to work in to my designs. Fun!
What type of coating did you mix with the titanium dioxide to prime it? "Cap" something? Can you spell the brand name of the we product? Looked to put a high build/tough coat as a primer!
Rember to put ac oil n, just dropped low or suction side hose in nd turn it on. If you're high side spits oil out pinch it off more or lingthen the tubing.
Awesome videos keep it up so many great lure designs. What putty and undercoat do you use im trying to find equivalents in Australia. Cant wait for the next video
I realize you know what you're doing and I'm sure you get asked constantly, but how many times have you cut yourself? My anxiety from watching you carve with the hobby knife is through the roof. Anyways, I'm a new subscriber and can tell I'm going to love all of your videos. Keep up the awesome work.
sorry but they always get destroyed in the process and besides it kinda defeats the purpose of making baits and being creative. What i try to do with my videos is to show a way of doing something and its up to the viewer to take that idea and make it their own.
if you google panda folio you should be able to find web shops, i have no idea if any of them will ship to your location but it does not hurt to ask. the fabric is called Tulle fabric and most fabric shops should have it
@@Elfin4 hmm it could be cos my google search engine is set up for finnish search results as a priority. anyways heres what i was able to find. www.supernova.fi/product/2693/pandan-makeisfolio-5m-patka-vanhempaa
tube is way easier to use. first of all geting a straight hole to a shape like that is a nightmare and second of all you need to coat the inside of the hole too, if you dont do that water is going to seep into the wood and cause it to bulge and in no time the clearcoat will crack open and ruin your lure.
The tool you keep calling a multitool is called a rotary tool, a multitool is one of those things with knife blades and crappy pliers, screw drivers etc. Nice lure though.
the tool such as that one in the video are marketed as multitools in every hardware store where i'm at so i dont know maybe there is differences between countries and continents when it comes to naming these things, it wouldn't be the first time that has happened lol
I'm thinking of taking them for the first floor. www.cabcoatings.fi/lakat/cab-uistinlakka-hard or www.cabcoatings.fi/lakat/cab-top-coat-uistinlakka ----- glass and white. 9:55 You use white 220-1 Cab Top Coat Uistinlakka. ooorrrrrrrr 5604 Createx Gloss Top Coat and 5602 Createx Opaque Base thanks.

A good idea implemented well. It reminds me of tube flies when fly fishing.
Excellent baits, love your paint work, proof is in the catching🎣
That's Awesome! I am learning so much from your videos. I don't have many tools, and you do all of this with minimal stuff. So Amazing!
when you have a good head on your shoulders you can usually find ways to get around the not having many tools issue ;)
@@SolarfallBaits That, or just sisu!
hats of mate ... making incredible baits that is ecofriendly.... please i encourage people to use such eco friendly baits like this
Very Well made Lure ..
Love the Idea of the "thru wire" !!!
thanks for watching ;)
I wonder if the plastic tube will end up with a cut in it from the line running thru it.
Beautiful lure, from cat piss, to candy wrapper. Nicely done.
Time will tell but it seemed to hold up so far.
Good quality video
Good craftsmanship
Nice job!!
Молодец. Уважение тебе мужик. За творения и за рыбалку. Привет с Узбекистана.
Nice job. The line through is like the Kynoch lure for salmon. Abu used to make a Kynoch and I used it for pike fishing.
Beautiful craftsmanship. Love youre videos but youre costing me money making more baits lol keep up the good work
I like that line tru lure and it works well for u you got sum pike 👍🎣😎
Thank you for the video. I am learning a lot from you.
Great videos and great craftsmanship in lure making. What thickness of foil do you use and where can it be found?
To both questions i have no idea
Keep making videos, it’s been a while. Videos with you fishing your lures and enjoying a good Bayerisch weissbier would be cool.
Realy cool lure idea and it swims really nicely.
If you still would like to work on it then a small propeller at the end of the lure could be a nice touch.
Another inspiring video Solar, thanks for posting
Ingenuity at it's finest!
Awesome 👍 I really like to try and I'm in Florida . I do salt and freshwater fishing . Hit me up how can i get couple of your awesome creation!!
Most of the baits i make are one offs that i make just for the videos.

I salvaged an old babys cot I have lost count how many lures I have made from it.
Really cool bait you made there! Nice humor too:)
Not a bad effort for a sausage fingered mutant haha. Great to see the lure in action.
Lol yeah not bad eh?
Great work! Love that bait!

@@plasterbrick2011 I'm sure it would catch fish too as its usually the action and shape that are the most important features of any lure
@@plasterbrick2011 make your own you tubes
@@wendybrown2701 haha nowhere near good enough for that yet!
these are awesome vids u make man , I'm hooked lol
Beautiful work as always!
Awesome bait and always enjoy the humor 😂👍🏼
What is that rou d thing infront of your lure.nice job good lloking paint work.do a catch and cook
Its been awhile since i made this but im fairly sure i mentioned it in the video that i used an action disk.
Good work and very original were you put weigth? I dont see in the video
it's pretty visible around 6:44
Great lure! How did you make the round part that goes before the lure that gave it action?
Its an action disc you can buy those from well equipped tackle shops
What type of coating did you mix with the titanium dioxide to prime it? "Cap" something? Can you spell the brand name of the we product? Looked to put a high build/tough coat as a primer!
@@ThomasMusic2010 cab coatings hard is the product
Great work Mikko.
nice looking bait
Amazing work. Well done!
Rember to put ac oil n, just dropped low or suction side hose in nd turn it on. If you're high side spits oil out pinch it off more or lingthen the tubing.
I will make one and try it on our long tail tuna and spinach mackerel
Yummy! Spinach mackerel! Lol
me studying for a test solar baits posts a new video I always wanted to get a F on the test
F stands for fabulous right? so it could be worse :P
@@SolarfallBaits haha
Awesome videos keep it up so many great lure designs. What putty and undercoat do you use im trying to find equivalents in Australia. Cant wait for the next video
I usually use plastic putty and for the clear coat envirotex lite
Really cool
what is Apache wood? super video

Your a true master baiter
Soryyy i nedd Glases jajaja
yes i see again thank you
Very good work
Great lure. I wish you would have shown the rigging as well. Nice work, thanks.
honestly didnt think its that necasary its just some metal wire linked with a treble hook, action disk and a swivel.
Gostei muito da sua isca! Envia para o Brasil?
ay lmao that drill saw technique xD

Not as many times as you might think 😉
Ingenious lure!! :)
How much weight does it have?
A question please i make lures too what is the thickness of the wood
Unfortunately i cant recall. Maybe 20mm or something close to that
Baking soda and thin super glue make great filler for lures.
Great idea👍
Ótimo trabalho,
Ganhou um inscrito no Brasil
very nice lure. 12:20 and 16:10 what are the materials you use?
First one is cab coatings hard lure varnish and the second coat after the paint is 2 part epoxy called envirotex lite
@@SolarfallBaits Is the (Createx Clear Coat gloss) the same with hard bait varnish?
Top..... Very cool your job. Could publish the tamplate of baits.
sorry but they always get destroyed in the process and besides it kinda defeats the purpose of making baits and being creative. What i try to do with my videos is to show a way of doing something and its up to the viewer to take that idea and make it their own.
@@SolarfallBaits truth. watching videos like yours we have where to draw inspiration to make ours
For $10 you can get a manual coping saw so you don't have to do that thing with the drill bit anymore.
i have one, actually several. the drill thing was to show an alternative way of doing things if you happen not to have a saw.
エアーブラシの技術はすごい
your videos are awesome!
thanks Igor i appriciate that
Great video bro
Could you provide a link where you can get that Panda foil and the fine net please.
if you google panda folio you should be able to find web shops, i have no idea if any of them will ship to your location but it does not hurt to ask. the fabric is called Tulle fabric and most fabric shops should have it
@@SolarfallBaits Tried but all Im getting back is panda images... Didn't think it would be this hard to find..

What epoxy's do you use, Thanks.
On this one Mr. Boat epoxy
Great job !!!
What wood is that?
Im not 100% sure but i think its oak.
What did you you use in the front to create the action?
even though its been a long time since i made this video im pretty sure i mentioned it. its an action disc
Where did you get the lip? I would like to order some.
i bought mine from a local tackle shop, you should be able to find some if you just google action disk
@@SolarfallBaits Excellent, thanks man. I think black bass would go crazy if you put an action disk on a soft plastic worm.
@@barthanes1 im sure they would, i've used smaller versions for fly fishing too but they are horrible to cast
Just find or use one of those suction cups you normally get for aquarium glass mounts. Drill a hole through the center and you're good to go!
can you make one with a soft curl tail
I dont see why not
are you calling your dremmel a multi-tool or are you calling it a molding tool
obviously a multi-tool
….good work. top.
do you have instagram for your lures?
I have the link in my "about" page
@@SolarfallBaits oh thanks
Do you sell your baits¿
yeah i do sometimes on ebay. the link is in my bio page
Idea creative brother youtube, mekeking lure handsome
Do not need tube inside, just drill it through smoothly..
tube is way easier to use. first of all geting a straight hole to a shape like that is a nightmare and second of all you need to coat the inside of the hole too, if you dont do that water is going to seep into the wood and cause it to bulge and in no time the clearcoat will crack open and ruin your lure.
Do you sell your baits? let me know. Thank you
I do sell my lures sometimes, usually at ebay.
Where does one find a catpee tree? 😎
the dumpster :P
The tool you keep calling a multitool is called a rotary tool, a multitool is one of those things with knife blades and crappy pliers, screw drivers etc. Nice lure though.
the tool such as that one in the video are marketed as multitools in every hardware store where i'm at so i dont know maybe there is differences between countries and continents when it comes to naming these things, it wouldn't be the first time that has happened lol
I doubt fish care about new design of any lure. It's more to hook the fisherman itself to buy one.
all the fish he catches ''maybe a kg'' lol
would be nicer if the average size of pikes was a little bit bigger where I'm at, but you got to work with what you got.
I'm thinking of taking them for the first floor. www.cabcoatings.fi/lakat/cab-uistinlakka-hard or www.cabcoatings.fi/lakat/cab-top-coat-uistinlakka ----- glass and white.
