Makes me really think paying $10 for lures isn’t so bad considering the effort. You really know what you’re doing that was badass! It even has the wobble action. Id love to try doing that some day.

I would go and buy the shop equipment, take the few hours to learn this and get one done. Paint it, assemble it, tie it on to a rod, and cast it into a tree my first cast. That’s what keeps me away

Very nice job sir! I'm curious about the tattoo on your thumb. Is it trading candles? I'm a bit of an investing nerd and it caught my eye.

@@TreysArt Lol I understand. If you are still interested in investing you may want to look into the Bogleheads, and investing in low cost index funds. I think you would be happier with the results in the long run. Thanks for the reply and the video🙏.

I feel that sealing the wooden lure with light sanding between coats, before painting will create a much stronger finish. Different type of sealers have many different effects on woods . Liked the video, Good work keep them coming. Did you mix any 4030 or 4050 with your createx paint? Because those additives creates better adhesion.

No I just used some 4012 to thin it a bit.

@@TreysArt Without adding 4030 0r 4050 the paint really has no bonding strength.....no matter what finish you use on top. Superglue is not a good way to seal wooden lures .

1/4 in or 6mm is about the standard but if you like a little bit bigger size like I do I’d go with 8mm which I think is 5/16

Good question. In my experience the angle and size matter more than the shape and those 2 things could matter quite a bit. Also take your line tie position into consideration.
