Tools, supplies, lures, art.. anything!
If you made it with your hands, and it's okay with you, I'd like to show your work and shout you out in a video too.
Took you 5 years but now you're a professional Master Baiter.
heh.
6 or 7 years
Noce😂
Good one
lol it never gets old!
I'm absolutely inspired by your story. I'll be showing this video to my English class (College English in Northern Minnesota) as an example of artistry through determination. We may not all be Master Baiters, (they're gonna get a kick outta that one, @alex mich) but we're all capable of putting in the time and effort to master something we love. I'll do my part to spread the message. Also, you're going to be a great father with that patience, passion, and drive of yours. Thanks for sharing your story and success. I can't wait to see where it takes you next!
Minnesota too here from brainerd
Foley Mn
There was a bait shop in Wakefield New Hampshire called "The Master Baiter" I had one of their shirts. It had some funny saying on it but I can't remember it. Lol
Haha “Master baiters”
Thats so amazing that you actually had zero lure making skills and by never quitting you have become one of the best custom lure makers I've ever seen.
low self-esteem, I often taught my former students that the "stars" that we emulate aren't necessarily the best that there are at their "craft". But they are the ones who didn't quit.
Determination and motivational are a powerful combo, we just need to know it will take time. Took him years, but look where he is at!
Thats how it works.. You start with zero experience and gain it as time passes, most people fail because they lack the motivation after failures..
Ever think about taking the first lures you made and trying to recreate them with the skills and techniques you have developed? I think a video like that would be cool. There is a channel on here where a dad takes his sons drawings and redraws them in a more life-like/ realistic way and shows his son. It made me think about this video of your old lures. Just a thought! Love your videos man! And congrats on the news of being a father!
Dang I watch the same videos as you
You are literally one of my favorite chanels. Keep up the good work
im_the_big_no_homo Get the spellings corrected.😆
hbhbbhhhh@@rogergiri1043 hvh
Same!
OH YEAH YEAH OH YEAH YEAH OH YEAH YEAH
Agreed
I think you will be doing this in like five years with your little fishing partner. Congratulations on the pregnancy btw! Keep up the good work and just think in 10 years what you will be able to accomplish in that shop. To the Bob Ross of the Lure cheers friend
Thanks for not giving up making lures love your videos
You inspired me so much I started right after I watched one of your videos and just started with a razor blade and some sandpaper. I watch your videos so much and thank you!!
“A floating turd” I fell out laughing.
Jeez how are you so talented?! The ones that you said were bad , I actually liked. 👍
This video easily earned my like in short order. Your honesty, humility, knowledge, and passion are far more valuable to me than the typical drama and BS that passes for entertainment these days.
seeing where you started has me feeling better about myself you have came leaps and bounds
Thanks for sharing, you just answered about 75% of my questions, I'm looking forward to seeing what you'll create next!
Refreshing to see that we all start from somewhere, you've inspired me to try my hand at lure making and hopefully I can show you progress.
Let’s see the progress
Nothing better than making your own lures and catching on them. Your lures now certainly are impressive a work of art.
Erick respect that you showed us how you started. As a little boy my mother used to say this good better best never let it rest so your good is better and your better is best and you are the best
your video was not only enjoyable.... it was inspirational
I am from South Africa and once started a soft lure factory. Made millions of lures and sold them all into the market but never really worked out. Had to let my passion go and the day job had to take over.
Very sad about that and I still tinker in my garage with all my lure making tools. Watching your videos have been truly inspirational and I have dreams of posting at some stage as well.
Wishing you all the best for you and your soon new additions to your family
thanks for your videos.
Nice
Hate to hear it didn’t work out. Keep up your passion and you might stand out on your own.
Haha...... I bought quite a few baits from you on eBay. That’s when I became a Marling Bait fan boy. Thanks for doing all you do. 👍❤️
Paint job on the first lures is art, very decorative, a bit naive, they are perfect. The shape and technique have a very handmade/artsy vibe. Love them!
Wow, now you are teaching us. Sir I salute you.
Time flies 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The TURD with hooks is very popular here in New Jersey.
With peanuts and UV corn.
some of those early ones have a very nineties aesthetic with the sparkly triangles and stuff lol
I really liked this history of your business, a good example of hard work, determination, and talent equaling success.
And the moral of the story is! Don’t give up. You are an inspiration brother .
Man your job sounds hard but you started rough but your now a professional bait maker so congratulations
my first lure was made with pieces of wine cork lashed to a tooth brush handle lol it floats and it wiggles 😊
Aj Btz yes! My first lure was a wine cork with a balloon stretched over and then cut to mimic a frog... I was only 10, my dad fished with it but I don’t think he caught anything 🥴
Stop your bragging. Your gonna hurt Williams feelings.
Thank you for showing your learning curve, we all have to start somewhere and its good to look back to see how far you came... I enjoyed seeing them...
Wow. The humility and honesty are very refreshing. Love the channel and content.
First Marling Baits !! Awesome video Marling Baits Keep up the amazing work Marling Baits !! Cheers William !! I love your TH-cam channel and your videos as well !! Thanks for the awesome video Marling Baits the lures that you make look incredible and spectacular !!
Are any of your amazing lures for sale? Especially the large replica baits?
If they are I would buy as much as I can
Samer here
They arent yet, but they will be available to patreons.
Should make limited edition signed and numbered editions so that you don't have to make bulk.
I found a german shop that sells them jerkbaitshop.com/handmade-Custom-Baits/Marling-Custom-Baits/
well done sir. thanks for your honesty and persistence.
Humble beginnings and you shared it with us thank you for that
Words I never though i'd ever hear......I was in my parents bedroom....with a mini lathe.....lmao EPIC
hope things are okay, been a while since an upload
For what its worth congratulations on how far you have come. You blow my mind with everything you do and congrats on starting a family I'm sure you will be an awesome father and I'm excited to see where you go from here you have already come so far. Thank you for sharing this
Happy to hear the news! Wishing you all the best
Start selling baits again! I'd love a trout swimbait for the wall.
Noticed you haven’t posted in a while.. hope all is well with the family
Love the fact you make lures for the love of challenging your creativity! Also love how you reflect on what you've learned over the years..thanks for sharing your passion for newbies like myself!
By far my favorite MB video! Keeping it real and showing the long road to success. Good stuff everyone can learn from. Thanks!
I hope marling is okay it's been a couple of weeks since he uploaded 😥
Dead he is.
Not mad, I repeat NOT MAD! Didn’t you say you would upload more often?
A great story to encourage others to stick with a goal and try not too get discouraged
Thanks for sharing I love the evolution of your baits and skill!
Are you OK? Getting worried about ya there...
Marling candles, coming 2019...
This may be my favorite video of yours I’ve seen. Reminds me A LOT of myself as a kid. I was always making my own fishing jigs and lures and never stopped challenging my creativity. I don’t think any of my stuff worked or even caught a fish but it was so much fun trying.
So glad you made this video... takes me back to my childhood!
This makes me happy. Congrats on being able to see everything through with the hard work. I enjoy your videos a lot!
It’s been 12 days since this went up
Waters running out
Supply’s are nearly gone
Starting to hallucinate belt sanders
Send help.
This comment is litterally me at the moment 😂
Maisie Hall ifygiigyigyii oof i go go you i
I CHALLENGE YOU TO DO A ONE DAY USING ONLY A SODA CAN (and tools) GO!
Big Thanks Marling. I learn a lot of technic with your videos. Wait the next one
This is one of the most honest inspiring videos I have ever seen and I am 45 years old😉. Blessings to you on your future from South Africa👏👏👏👏👏👏
You gave that lure to Chelsea and she still dated then married you! Are you the only bloke in a city full of women or something.
Alan Morris 😂
Some lures catch fish some catch women...it's official.
😂🤣
Glad to see you didn't giving up no matter what , it takes courage to not take no for an answer . Push forward ,learn from your missteps , and don't let those people who say you aren't good enough hold you back. Look how far you came !!!
A couple years ago I start tying flys and jigs, but I was planning to do wood baits and this video inspire me to start doing it, thanks and keep doing that art of craftsmanship!
The most relaxing videos to watch while laying in bed right before sleep!
Great story. Thanks for the motivation
You have been a tremendous help and inspiration to me in my fledgling bait production. I have learned SOOOOO much watching your TH-cam videos and just wanted to say Thank-You for your efforts. You are a true craftsman and artist par excel-lance.
Thank you. I've been painting blanks for about 6 months and I've been thinking about trying to make a few stick baits on my friends lathe. After watching this video I'm feeling really inspired. It's nice to see how your skills have progressed from beginner to artisan, and that perseverence is they key to success. Great video.
Outstanding story. Was a great listen. Good job in not giving up.
Hard work and dedication, what it always boils down to. Congrats on the progression and, as usual, thanks for sharing with us.
What I appreciate is your obvious passion for what you do. I would hope everyone find a passion like that and stick with it. One of mine is fishing. That is another reason why I enjoy watching you make such awesome baits. It's been really cool seeing your You Tube channel grow. Thanks for sharing.
I think the greatest takeaway from this fabulous episode is how truly genuine & nice you are. And l believe you can attribute your succeeding to that....the talent progressed from experience. The rest was in you from the start. The process let it out.
That’s awesome you get to do what you enjoy for a living. Love the channel!!
Super cool seeing your progression. You are a hard working determined individual. And that drive and determination will make you an excellent father who raises an excellent child. Let me rephrase. You and Chelsea will raise an excellent child together and 10 years from now they will see these videos and be like, “Wow Dad you looked so young!” Lol.
Very nice story on how you started and where you are. That is true you have to keep on trucking and most of all you have humor on your side makes things lots easier I guess, good job get to the next bait
You put in the equity into your work all those years. Now your baits are amazing!! Loved that trout bait. Keep on Marling Baits!
Awesome to get your backstory!! Thank you for that and keep on with fantastic channel
Wow. It is definitely true, practice makes perfect. You have reached a whole new level in just 6 years. Hats off to you sir 👏👏👏
So happy to have found this channel. TY for sharing your amazing progress!
Love seeing the progress!
I love all the detail u put on
I have watched a few of your videos over the past years. I enjoy every one of them. You have a talent for making entertaining original content like no other I have come across. Thank you for sharing your story and how it came to be what it is now. Reminds me of my self and hopefully one day I can make baits as nice. Looking forward to what’s next.
You're the reason why I started making lures as a hobby. You are an inspiration dude
I think the most important thing a creator can do is inspire others to be creative. You’ve helped do that for me. Your simple style of videos, your sense of humor and your talent has inspired me to get back into the creativity that I’ve fallen away from as I’ve gotten wrapped up in life.
It’s a long shot, but I hope I can meet you someday so that I can thank you in person for doing that for me and so many others.
I’ve been binge watching your videos on my off day today since it’s raining. This is my all time favorite fishing channel on TH-cam. You seem like such a genuine guy with an amazing skill. Thank you for documenting your work and sharing it!
I love this video. The progression is amazing. This channel is hands down my favorite.
very inspirational. Thank you for sharing.
Really awesome to see how you started out!
You've certainly come a long way. Just don't throw out your first baits. Bring them out every now and then. Cherish them.
I enjoy making lures 2 now bc watching these videos and it's so calming and it's so rewarding catching a fish with the lure I make or just seeing them swim.
I’ve been making inline musky spinners for about a year now, and I feel you.
Nate, I love how hard you’ve worked. It makes me appreciate what you do even more.
Ryan
Inspiring stuff! Thanks for sharing!
This video really encouraged me because of you I’ve been inspired to start making wooden lures and it was relatable to me when you said you tried to sell em and no one bought it but seeing this video now it’s a refreshing feeling that encourages me to try again and don’t ever give up thank you. Much love from Trinidad 🇹🇹
Glad you're here, making my sunday coffee that much better. Cool to see the transition.
Awesome story. Awesome baits. Awesome guy.
its inspiring to see the development and what has become of hard work and determination.
I just discovered his channel but I love his mild shock and sarcasm about everything, this has made me an instant fan
It is really cool to see your progression.
Thanks for the video. It was cool to see start to now.
Is very cool that you show your humble beginnings and now you are an artist and you make Amazing lures like that bug
Thanks for the great video! Really cool to see the progress in different stages😁👍
Great story, its awesome to see your progression through the quality of your lures!
Love your videos! Love your baits! They are amazing! Keep up the good work! 🐟
You and The Handmade Fisherman are the two people that made me want to start making my own lures. I've been making basswood and cast resin poppers and walking baits because they seem the least complicated.
Even though they are old they look great awesome job 🐱
I just started to get into fishing and had the idea of making my own. so I came across one of your videos and been watching your videos randomly. This video started playing and made me subscribe to your channel. Sharing how you started and showing examples of that was an awesome thing to do.
Really inspiring! Well done!
I enjoy all your videos this one was special.
Genio!!! Asombroso tu trabajo y dedicación
