Were you surprised at the results of the Kool Aid test??

[@rrrr635]

I'd use those colors! Cool. Merry Christmas.

[@kyle5046]

Oh Yeah!

[@Bigwormgotem]

Heak yea!

[@MrKying]

World's Worst Fishing, cake mix, soy sauce, duck sauce, dry spices, fruit chunks, yogurt & hot sauce

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

endless options!

[@taggintailsoutdoors2282]

How funny would it have been if the kool-aid man busted through your wall like " oh yeah "

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

I was disappointed that he didn't ha

Wondering if a lab hotplate would be a good buy for you. They've got magnetic stirring, just gotta find the size of stir bar that would work for something that thick. It would also keep the plastisol hot so no need to throw it back in the microwave.

[@8Jory]

The super cheap ones are around 30 bucks here in Canada so south of the border they'd be way cheaper. At least it wouldn't be an expensive experiment.

[@johnhancock517]

Dude that is awesome! I like how the thinner areas on the grape ones transitioned to almost clear.

I wish I could have grape one it looks amazing 😉

[@andrewbrunton1740]

He should try making fish eggs out of the kool aid blends, rainbow trout would probably love them.

[@Duschbag]

Not until Koolaid comes out with a CORN flavored drink... 🤔

[@andrewbrunton1740]

@@Duschbag trout eat sweet stuff like marshmallows, so no need for corn.

[@basscatlildave]

Fishing may have sucked but thanks for demonstrating my suggestion. I think the effect was cool and liked the tropical punch color the best. Did the baits retain the smell after they cured?

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Yeah they still smell pretty good haha

[@basscatlildave]

Raining all day here so no hunting. Looks like I need to make some baits. I may see if I can overcome the moisture on Koolaid remelts.

Today is my introduction to World's Worst Fishing. I subscribed, I'll hang in here with ya. Since retiring I've considered making my own baits, maybe you'll convince me. We'll see. Keep the videos coming.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Glad to have you man!! It's the best hobby in the world!

[@tylermorrow7878]

If you ever try this again I’d say try using a electric plug in stove or a heating piece that slowly brings it to temperature or as you are mixing it keep it on something that keeps it up to temperature

[@jimjordan5630]

A regular hot plate is slower than a microwave but for this out works great. You can use a small aluminum can to melt and re-melt your plastics. Use a piece of aluminum or wood crafts stick to stir.

[@joeyoung6730]

Hey, I have a quick question I just started making my own lures and can I ask you put all of your lures in water after you shoot them. Love the vids keep it up

[@iamkarlmeyer]

Grape lures look fantastic.

[@richardgreen137]

I would have never given it a thought but I am willing to try. I would be worried about moisture in the powder.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Yeah I basically went to war with bubbles

[@billallmon4094]

I bet its the sugar if you use a hot plate it wont bubble

[@rural4174]

@@billallmon4094 the koolaid packets shouldn't have sugar. Should just be flavoring and coloring.

[@johnknight6308]

Cool video I’m going to try that I use hot water bath to set my mixing cup in and I don’t use metallic stir stick it cools it down to fast love them colors your going to catch tons of bass!!!!

[@ukrainevs.russia]

me too

[@willbruce3]

You didn't watch to the end of the video where he uses them, did you?

[@mikeb2777]

How do they fish? Does the Koolaid flavor mean anything? Great idea and execution.

[@trinitymaker5833]

Since you're into the realm of food grade colorants, you should try turmeric powder. It might just make one of the most intense yellow's you've ever seen!

[@elealehblue6429]

Never mixed it into plastic and I'm not sure if you have either, but mica powder (dollar store eye shadow) does some pretty cool stuff, too.

[@ericwright4166]

It might burn the fish's mouth & taste terrible! But the mica is a fantastic idea for sure

[@BamaShockz]

absolutely amazed by the koolaid baits. nice job

[@MSSmith1022]

One of the most unusual baits I ever used was Sour Gummy Worms. I was fishing with a buddy and as he was moving to a point he kicked the tub of night crawlers into the water. I started joking that the bass in the lake might like something sour and rigged up a Gummy worm in bright yellow/green/blue. I caught three bass in the four-pound range and my buddy caught a five-pounder before we had to leave so I could go to work.

[@andwjy]

Well, you can give the unused part to that annoying neighbor child, it's 'kool-aid jelly' lol

[@bicali_pierfishing1567]

That black flack with the blue flacks is beautiful👍💯

[@kuyaIan510]

Need more videos of you fishing your awesome baits. Bless up🤙

[@gachonlures7870]

One tip for color powder: For best mixing result, put powder first and add just a few plastisol. Mix it . Add rest of plastisol and heat. I have best result when mix color before heating. (Sorry for my english....i'm just French 😂)

[@brandonmartinez5550]

This video was so dope. Very creative buddy.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

thanks man

[@2toedoe2]

These baits would be awesome over here at my local hood lakes..

[@Champion_of__Ash]

This is amazing after I buy the molds is it possible to melt water bottles for my plastic? I only drink bottled water so if its possible It would be nice to have a use for all the empty bottles ihave in the trash.

[@richardorta8960]

They also have various hawaiian punch packets like the orange crush Then the pink lemonaid and lemonaid from whylers The mountain dew knock off Cherry cola Rootbeer (A&W) Cream soda (A&W)

[@catfishreaper4922]

I would fish them in a heartbeat !

[@rusharley134]

Great colors!

[@justin-og5if]

you can use a torch to get rid of all the surface bubbles, just flash the top quickly and you wont get any plastic burn

[@chasingthefish9042]

I want to see that first mold in action.

[@eaglespetty]

I wonder if you could use the propane torch on the measuring cup to reheat it?

[@Jrizy.]

Damn beautiful looking baits.

[@fantasygrinchstarr1484]

What you do wit the slag? The left overs the cut offs? You should do a fishing challenge with a buddy. I think yo could make it work!

[@bocessna9360]

Pre-Scented!!!! Awesome idea

[@rmesa4748]

The colors turned out great. But I will most likely not use this method. Fun experiment.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

yeah I wont be doing it again anytime soon haha

[@humblehombre9904]

I like the transparent crawdad (the legs and claws), it looks like the craw has molted , which many fish wait for because they are softer to eat.

[@BassFishingAddictions]

I think if koolaid baits hit the market itd catch more anglers than fish lol

Need a link for a good duel injector and lamination block. P.s. you make some beautiful lures!

[@donaldbooks7219]

My only concern would be once you pierced them with a hook and water started to penetrate the plastic would the color bleed out and your left with a faded version

[@billallmon4094]

Maybe a beer worm

[@charlestaylor8913]

Hey love your channel. Great information. I hope to start making my own plastics. Very soon. I'm just trying to sort out who will I be buying the molds and colors from. By the way, why do you call your channel Worlds Worst Fishing?

[@danabellefeuille8485]

u ever seen plastic with compartments for ur attractant,, for i truly believe in more bites with attractants. how do u make those grooves,, there s a idea.

[@ZZ430T56]

And your neighbor complains about burning plastic coming from your house ;)

[@LolaRyck]

Not sure if anyone said this but kool aid has citric acid in it. Could this be why you can’t mic it ? When dyeing yarn we actually put kool aid water - with blank yarn in the mic. The water comes out clear - the yarn ends up dyed. It stays permanent bc of the chemicals in kool aid Just a thought.

[@miner-fo9be]

Been a while since I’ve watched your videos!

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Glad to have you back

[@Funboy870]

cool aid has a lemon lime that would probably make an interesting worm. also cool aid has a liquid concentrate that might work. could maybe make baits darker or lighter. cool vid.

[@robertposenal6981]

Jello’s work best. Try lime with micro gold and blk flake as well as phosphorescence colors.

[@antoncederholm6591]

Use pepper instead of black flake in a bait (and other spieces for other glitter colors)

[@d.moutdoors4377]

The pine straw around your tree looks good and what if you tried half a cool aid pack to your cup or 1/4 of it making my gears turn in my head lol. Awesome job

[@LimitedGunnerGM]

Have you considered using a hot plate to preheat the molds? You can control the temp with the dial and less flames than the torch.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

havent had good results with hot plates..some guys use a small convection oven tho

[@PENFOLD1962]

A really entertaining & interesting video once again. Have you tried the colour shifting mica powder in the baits? Thanks for keeping me entertained whilst my family watch TV!
