How To Design A Plastic Bait - The BFE

[@eliself998]

The fact that BTL is on in the background is definitely a flex by Matt!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

They play it up there all the time! Fishing junkies

[@daltonchitwood7789]

Can’t wait to buy the bait and try it out man. Watching these videos is crazy to me seeing your kids as old as they are now last time I saw the boy he was in diapers and Nemo was still very young! Now she’s older then I was when brothers and I did work for you that summer! Crazy how time flies !

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

I’m going to get you in the boat when all this stuff blows over with Coronavirus. Y’all working ? Rigs up or down?

[@daltonchitwood7789]

Bradley Hallman just stacked our rig dad and I are going back to driving trucks

[@vrt1032]

Man, made me almost tear up dude. Great kids bonding, the best

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Appreciated! This video will always be a good one for my kids

[@timhise9004]

Awesome deal Bradley!! Your daughter may have her foot in the door for helping with design and early production for baits!!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

She’s got a good start for sure.

[@hankwilliams3063]

It takes a true to the bone flipper to develop a bait that performs...you knocked this one out of the park!!!!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks Big Hank! You know it ain’t my first time. Okie Flipper For Life!

[@hookfynn82]

thats probably gonna be the best looking bait in the big bite line up!! killer job!!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks bro we are all really excited how it’s turning out!

[@miltonalbright1606]

Man Bradley you got quiet a daughter there are you going to give her some of the credit for this outstanding milt

[@Mr1BIGGEE]

I have to admit that saw this video when it first came out. I thought it was awesome for you daughter to do the art work. I always liked to look of the bait but in all honesty I never tried it. Well I bought some during the Memorial Day sale at Tackle Warehouse. I went out this weekend for the first time since getting the baits. The lake I fish is known for numbers. It doesn't take much but a 3 pounder for big fish. We will see an occasion 5 pounder at times. Well I had your bait rigged and fished it a good part of the day. Caught plenty of fish on it and even had the big fish of the day which was a 4.76. We were just out fun fishing so it made for a great day. Needless to say I will be ordering more. Great video and congrats with making a great bait.

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks for the feedback I appreciate your support man!

[@chefpoet1972]

This is AWESOME! You should be very proud of your daughter. She did some amazing work.

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

We are very proud of her she has many talents!

[@elbertfarley374]

Great Job Hallman family! and Matt. I am not much of a flipper I am more of a power fishermen.But after following this design of this baits I will pick some up when they come out. Tennessee River might not be the same after I am done flipping it with this bait. Ha .Your kid being involved was awesome

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks Elbert

[@rmfishing9979]

Never heard of BFE until you and Andrew’s video a couple days ago - found this video - awesome story - just ordered some from TW - keep doing videos - yours are some of the best!!!!!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks Robbe... Catch biggun’s on that BFE!

[@williamlaws2353]

New favorite video by you. Kind of reminds me of Dion and Guido, we know where that went. The ring worm part could be a whole line of baits . Would be nice having one hook handle several baits. Tell your daughter she can put bait design on resume

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

I will let her know...... thanks for sharing

[@joebee1459]

Thats so awesome how you came up with the design. Ive got to give em a go.

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Glad you liked the video!

I loved seeing the daughter get involved and wanting to help. Also the bait looks killer, can’t wait till they come out and start flipping with it

[@christophercurtis2550]

I have that baby I think it's pretty nice detail you did to it I really like it can't wait to try it

[@midwestfisherman]

Cool looking bait! It was cool to see that you were able to involve your daughter in the project.

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Cool how life works out sometimes.

Been using these for a while now and I lovem great design and very talented daughter. Congrats man.

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks 🙏 bud!

[@ricklovall6430]

Been following this on BTL and just tonight had time to watch the videos. Very informative! Kudos to your daughter. Gotta be pretty cool for her to see her art come to life. Be even cooler if daddy can win some serious cash using it and pass some of it on to her!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

I hear ya! Win big! She did a fantastic job thank you for watching.

Ole billy is an old school flipper and spinner baiter. David is a little more willing to try the new stuff. Good guys up there. I try to go once a week and support our local shop. Forgot to add, I’d flip that bait from January through December here in Ok! Can’t wait to get some at lucky lure so I can grab some and get to flippin and rippin.

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Good old boys up there they are!

[@calvinlassiter2756]

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Yes she does!

[@danielw2120]

Awesome Bait and another good video. It's cool you got to include your daughter. Heard Matt say on BTL some listener would get to create a color.. would love to be able to use my black neon variant. It would be straight awesome on this bait. Keep up the good work!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks Daniel! Yes BTL is going to have a color contest soon. Don’t have all the particulars yet.

[@robertnapier6063]

Bradley, I’m so happy for you! This is definitely something to be proud of! Great job by you and Matt! I can’t wait to get my grubby paws on some of these!

[@mattharvey8868]

Looks like a killer bait man.It would also be a nice brush hog substitute.

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Flip it anywhere is the idea!

[@aspadafina]

Bradley very nice. Can't wait to try one. Seen you BTL this morning and I have to say very nice incite about the a start to almost complete bait. When it comes to colors you need to reward your daughter with a color of her own. by the way I'm volunteering to be your field tester for the Midwest!

Thank you so much dad for this amazing experience! I loved spending time with you to help you with your dreams like when I was a kid and we would compete together! I appreciate your support as well in my art! If anyone is untested my art account has changed to @kenz._.artz, I would love the support, I do commissions if anyone would like a custom painting or drawing, I do portraits, animals, humans, objects, anything. But once again thank you dad for everything you do and I know your idea will go far and I will be here every step of the way do thank you and I love you!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks Nemo.

[@markblackstad8705]

Sweet looking bait! I am a big fan of the Big Bite plastics line. It will need some phase 1 testing in the Minnesota area, just saying. Your daughter did an awesome job! She should get a % of the sales for her college fund!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

She’s taken Care of I can promise you that!

[@delylewoods1682]

Just another reason I have always used/loved Big Bite baits. If your looking for someone to help with the feed back... Great Job!!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks bud

[@fishingwithphil2582]

Awesome video! Talented kid! One idea 💡 what about the small wings on the side, what if they had a hole in the center of them? That way when the bait would fall or coming up it would move water through the holes to create turbulence. Just an idea!

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Thanks for the idea man! Appreciate you watching.

[@scottclark1168]

You need to frame that art work she did an amazing,that girl got some talent,that's a dang good looking bait,I will be using g them whenever they hit the stores

[@michaelatkinson3033]

Great video! Really cool seeing you get your daughter involved. The bait looks great can’t wait to try it. Will the tail be perforated to be able to separate similar to a Reaction Innovations beaver?

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

Nope you’ll have to use scissors ✂️ if you want to cut this tail!

[@AveryFa]

It looks like it should be a great bait to use in the grass at Guntersville and I can hardly wait to give it a shot. I do have one quick question about your bait development. Does Mackenzie getting a royalty for each bait sold or did you pay her a consultant fee up front?

[@AveryFa]

Makenzie Hallman Great answer. How much did he have to bribe you to say that??? {wink}

[@stevesteve4350]

Let's go start pumping those things out. Lol. I'm ready. Work on a good brown color please. A real brown like bottom of the lake brown. Thanks for the hard work!!!

Brad you should pay your daughter for her drawings and put the money into a Roth IRA for her. She can have 50+ years of compound interest that is 100% tax free. That would cement a legacy of the shared experience. Good work. I love the concept bait. Tube like performance in a beaver like profile. Truly the best of both worlds.

[@gregc2621]

Brad my man, gimme your breakdown of when you are flippin a BFE over a fighting frog, and vice versa.

[@BradleyHallmanFishing]

I like the flipping the fighting frog anytime I am fishing dead laydowns that are falling in off the bank. Especially in the fall also on docks. Shorter compact baits like the BFE most of all the other times. There are no 100% all the time rules in fishing not even for the guys that do it for a living. Thanks for the question.
