I have to say, when you were adding the big red flake… I was yelling “nooooo” at the screen but I’m glad you couldn’t hear me! That 3” is KILLER!!!!! I really have to quit watching you. I haven’t been using the 8bit baits….. but …… 8bit baits….. here I come! Great video! You are a master. Craftsman! God bless!
LOL, glad it worked out for both of us! Can't go wrong with 8bit... some awesome stuff and a little bit goes a long way (so the higher cost lasts a good long while). Thanks man, enjoy!
Awesome uncut edition! Borealis is by far and away the number one best seller of the Holoshift lineup. You definitely need to use it more. If you think you like it now, wait until you fish it. There's a reason it's the No. 1 selling color in the lineup. I will say though when you went right to an 1/8th tsp. I winced a little bit. I suggest trying the same but with only 1/16th tsp. of Borealis, you can always add more. I find that the Cyan green can be very overpowering sometimes. Maybe that's just me though.
Sweet, I'll definitely adjust and see what I think. Wincing at 1/8... I nearly went right for the 1/4! LOL Ever since filming this one yesterday I've been mulling over the perfect top color to compliment it... lot of great options - a smooth pearl, I think, would be dynamite!
I should have…. I definitely should have. Thought for sure it would get lost but I think we would have totally seen it! Ah well… there’s always the next build!
as I've stated in the past.. I TRULY ENJOY & APPRECIATE YOUR VIDEOS.. I especially like the uncuts.. some may say They're long. Buuut I enjoy them. the Baits are as ALWAYS AS AMAZED.. Ty again.
I’m a lil behind on my TH-cam’n finally got to sit and enjoy the AMAZING SHOW … I’m still picking up pieces of my brain matter off the floor 😮. It just blows my mind how those color shift powders start pretty much white and just explode with amazing colors…. Straight Up MADD SCIENTIST work right there !! 👊
Great video brother, definitely going to have to steal that Bassy monkey milk colorway from you LOL. And oh yes definitely love my sdg block. Awesome stuff.
You have hot air ductwork right overhead in your shop. A cordless drill, tin snips, some sheet metal screws or rivets and an inexpensive flue with a flapper and you could easily tap into that duct to throw some heat into your bait shop. Open or close as necessary. $20 + 30 minutes of effort.
Thanks John! These days he spends more time studying the Word than playing guitar. He definitely still plays, but he feels called into the Ministry (which is awesome!) so he’s often up to his eyeballs in commentaries and theological notes. How cool is that?!
Denting is almost always about temperature change, so your best bet to avoid it is to shoot the plastic as cold as you can. These were shot at 327, but by the time I actually got to the cups it was probably under 325… then the injector wasn’t as hot cooling it further. So, shoot colder (320 or less if you can) and if you want some insurance, warm up the mold before shooting to help avoid the sudden drop in temps. Hope that helps!
Could be! White is a crazy dangerous color… even 1 drop takes over like you wouldn’t believe. Maybe a drop in a cup then a toothpick to eaaaaase it in. Hard to say!
@@SDGCustomLurecraft May be why everyone makes clear bellies. It would definitely need to remain translucent and I would expect it would dull the color shift powders a little but real life fish just aren't completely clear so...
LOL, thanks Christopher! I toyed with the idea in previous years but never pulled the trigger… just too many other irons in the fire! Glad you liked em though! 🤜🤛
Could be! There was so much gold in the color already I thought it would be overkill, but maybe some bigger flakes to compliment the super small glittery nature of it would have been good!
Just curious Why black all the time? Why not use base color that you are creating? Blue for blue brown for brown, green for green...etc. Is it too difficult to get the color you are trying to make or what??
Great question and definitely an option! Black is neutral, so using it allows the true color of the powder to come through. You can certainly add 8bitbaits to any base, but the essence of the powder will change as the base color changes. Still a great idea, but when I want to powder to "stand alone", I turn to black.
Hey Joe, thanks for the interest man! Unfortunately, I’m not taking new custom orders… just too much to try to juggle so customs had to go. That said, MSD may be a color in the next drop, so keep an eye out for it there! You can join the Bait Drop Mailing List via my website to get notified when the baits go live. Thanks man!
@SDGCustomLurecraft an almost clear bait top w) a Monkey milk like color, Mid w) a clear red, Bottom Wa clear Blu, Grn, or Gry. I sent over this txt ²LEB, THEY COULDN'T HELP w) what o need. If it's any conciliation I admire you umfff to be the best@ what you do for us all, I will keep my 👁pened for any you my have for grabs
Do you use Holoshift with just black flake? If so, let me know what you think in the comment below!
@@SDGCustomLurecraft can you make a swimbait with a green punkin black flake top with a monkey milk bottom
@ sounds like the one I showed at the beginning (just without the red flake)!
The light reflection gives it a really cool effect and look
@@stillwaterbaitco Indeed it does!

@SDGCustomLurecraft you're more than welcome.
I like the way those baits came out almost like they had been triple injected. The magic of holoshift. Great looking baits
Yes indeed! It’s amazing stuff, truly is! Thanks Art!
Very nice colours from hand injectors all sparkling full of hope to catch a nice bass
Yes indeed, thank ya much!

IKR?! Crazy-sauce man!
As always, some allsome baits. I would definitely fish those baits anyday. Another great video. Tight lines man
Thanks Ronnie! I’m looking forward to tossing these around yes sir!
You have yet to disappoint when you make a last-minute call for a change or addition. Those swim baits are impressive. Be blessed. My friend.
Thanks Joe! Fun videos like this keep me going when Spring feels so far away!
Great video brother, definitely going to have to steal that Bassy monkey milk colorway from you LOL. And oh yes definitely love my sdg block. Awesome stuff.

Very nice Adam! Thanks for sharing!
Appreciate you watching David, thank ya!
Just Wow Sir! Amazing looking Baits!
@@scottvermonter920 thank ya Scott! 🤜🤛
Great video. I am going to make the top color into worms. Baits look amazing.
Thanks Michael! That would be a killer worm color, yes indeed!
Killer Job!!!! Good call on red flake made it POP. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Ike! The bigger flake definitely helped!
Beautiful baits!!
Thanks man!!
Great looking baits

Got in late but better late than never I say. Those are off the chain great looking baits man
Thanks man! Glad you liked em!
Looking good. Keep it up.
Thanks Wallace! Much appreciated!
Wow that's cool
Thanks Daniel! I thought so too my friend!

Yeah... I can't remember why we closed that one down... something about it years ago. Good thought though!
Alsome color combo enjoy the content thanks again triple j baits
Thanks TJB! Appreciate you watching!
Freaking awesomeness
Thanks Keith! Glad you liked em!
Awesome as always Adam. Where has the guitar man been lately? Need some jam
Thanks John! These days he spends more time studying the Word than playing guitar. He definitely still plays, but he feels called into the Ministry (which is awesome!) so he’s often up to his eyeballs in commentaries and theological notes. How cool is that?!
@ that is wonderful. Love when young people start early
Those are pretty cool. In a bait like these, do you charge more when you sell them? Thanks for sharing with all of us.
Thanks man! I really try to keep my prices pretty consistent. Sometime I need to adjust, but I do my best to level things out. Glad you liked em!
What's your secret to preventing the 4.1 Preybait from denting. I get dents all the time. Does your blending block prevent them.
Denting is almost always about temperature change, so your best bet to avoid it is to shoot the plastic as cold as you can. These were shot at 327, but by the time I actually got to the cups it was probably under 325… then the injector wasn’t as hot cooling it further. So, shoot colder (320 or less if you can) and if you want some insurance, warm up the mold before shooting to help avoid the sudden drop in temps. Hope that helps!
Awesome, thanks. I'll try shooting at cooler temps and see if that helps.
I'm new to this ! When you make jig heads do you melt your lead in the house or outside??
I'm in the garage with plenty of ventilation 👍👍
👍
Sdg can you use cheaper glitter like from hobby lobby or Walmart?
You can, but its been my experience that they are not very heat tolerant... some (maybe not all) tend to lose their color, especially when reheating.
Thank you sir
👍
Thanks Matt!
Gosh I would think a drop or two of white in with the belly would be appropriate?
Could be! White is a crazy dangerous color… even 1 drop takes over like you wouldn’t believe. Maybe a drop in a cup then a toothpick to eaaaaase it in. Hard to say!
@@SDGCustomLurecraft May be why everyone makes clear bellies. It would definitely need to remain translucent and I would expect it would dull the color shift powders a little but real life fish just aren't completely clear so...
I am just saying if you did a monthly subscription box with a couple custom colors I would gladly hand over my money.
LOL, thanks Christopher! I toyed with the idea in previous years but never pulled the trigger… just too many other irons in the fire! Glad you liked em though! 🤜🤛
Large gold flake would have been the ticket
Could be! There was so much gold in the color already I thought it would be overkill, but maybe some bigger flakes to compliment the super small glittery nature of it would have been good!
