[@watertothepeople]

very impressive lure and art. it's extremely satisfying to watch your work progress

[@apassionforcarping5275]

What an absolutely exquisite lure that is. A total work of art. Superb yet again mate

[@antonio999us]

Hello Mikko... welcome back and greetings from Peru !!! ... we were waiting for another of your great videos. This one was extraordinary. I hope some day I have at least the half of your skills for doing my homemade lures... I haven't started to do my resin lures yet. I'm still working with Balsa wood. I have to break the ice and try to do something with the resins and polymers I bought. Mikko, congratulations for your work and thank you for sharing your skills and knowledge... You help me to learn a lot!!!

[@fromtheedge2theledge]

I really enjoy your videos. The passion that you have for making them come through in your videos. Thank you 😎🎣🚤🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟

Would love to paint one of your lures (not that your doing a bad job). Awesome skillz as always 👊🖒

[@tommywood7087]

Obomodulan. Never heard of it. Usually when I have chip out on bass or poplar, I patch with super glue and baking soda, but I like what I'm seeing there. Will have to try it. Either that, or stick me a frozen blue gill in some silicone.

[@qmasterpenman4213]

Great lures! I made a vacume degassing pot made from and old pressure cooker and an old HVAC roughing vacume pump I got at a flea market for $10 to take the bubbles out of both the mold material and the casting material - eliminates all bubbles. I also occasionally put a vent hole on the mold for tricky designs where flow through can be a problem. Beautiful lures! What no giant Musky following the lure yet??

[@SolarfallBaits]

i should gobble together somesort of degassing system too the bobbles can make stuff rather annoying especially when casting for lures. i wish there was a giant musky following the lure but sadly we dont have them in Finland

@@SolarfallBaits awesome baits by the way. Ive starting making stickbaits here in new Zealand to chase kingfish. I am now addicted to making lures haha

[@K.B.Fishing]

Super work Mikko!!

[@benprice3719]

Amazing work. It would be even better with footage of you catching a fish on that lure. Also, a polarised lens on your camera or even an underwater camera could give much better images of your tests at the end of each video.

[@Andysfishing]

Very impressive lure, that will work great, but I think the hooks are way, way too small.

[@SolarfallBaits]

never had any fish hooking problems with 3/0 hooks (like i have on the lure in the video) for pike. Also usually bigger and heavier hooks you use on a glide bait such as this, that might have a negative effect on the gliding action of the lure. Imagine that the weighting system inside the lure is a fixed pendulum that makes the lure move from side to side. Basically the more stuff you add to off set that pendulum motion, the harder you usually need to work the lure too with donward strokes or reel turns.

[@Rob-zq8sy]

Just found your channel your lure making skills are amazing, if I made one it would have to be based on a leather carp lol.

[@lisatwitchell403]

Love this lure and it's action. Can you supply the length and weight, please. Looks like a great lure for big large mouth bass.

[@SolarfallBaits]

these ones are 17cm/6.7" and weight 115g/4oz

[@iulianmuresanu]

You should make videos fishing with these lures too. I'd watch.

WOW!!! VERY IMPRESSIVE WORK!!! Just subscribed. Wish you would shoot some under-water footage to get a better shot of this ( and other ) lures in action.

[@IndexFossil1]

beautiful, but not the Bream I'm used to,.lol apparently Bream is a misnomer when applied to bluegill and sunfish in the southern United States.

[@SolarfallBaits]

Me being from northern europe i was aiming for the common bream thats native to that region. There are some sea species that i know that some people call bream where their at.

[@FishingWithFinn]

amazing work of art! LunkersTV old intro musing at 13:14 lol

[@Mercenary_32]

I'm making an assumption that a majority of people use balsa wood for their lures, but what about poplar wood?

[@SolarfallBaits]

poplar is a good lure wood, especially for traditional wobblers and such

[@Mercenary_32]

SolarBaits thanks! 👍☺

[@Mercenary_32]

SolarBaits I really enjoy watching your videos. Very soon i will be making my own wooden fishing lures, thanks for your insight and tips!

[@jdogg661420]

very skilled work. i dont even know how you make the fish the same on each side.... in 3d its simple iwork on half the model it make it automatically on the other side.. but trying to carve i dont know seems so hard and then each time i try to adjust it make other side off... i almost want to buy a 3d printer design my lure in 3d print it then make my mold from the 3d printed lure.. would be a lot easier for me like that but those printers are still loud and not fast enough for me to really go out and get one yet.

[@michaelharris7383]

Absolutely love your channel mate, could you tell me what ratio of micro balloons you use for your glide/jerkbaits please?

[@SolarfallBaits]

That solely depends on the size of the lure i measure the amount in grams in relation to the resin so its hard to say an exact amount. As a ratio but its mostly between 4-8grams of micro balloons.

[@dawetikni]

Wonderful baits you make. Almost too beautiful to use... I'm also trying to make my own jerkbaits. I'm pleased with my wood-working skills, but the painting is a disaster. I have a cheap airbrush pencil with a .25 nozzle and a borrowed compressor and I'm using the jvr paint. Is the nozzle too small?? It's impossible to give a lure a covering white paint, although the use of opaque paint. Do you have a video explaining the airbrush requirements?? What is the minimal ....

[@SolarfallBaits]

what sort of psi does your compressor do? that can make a big difference in your painting

[@dawetikni]

Thanks for your answer!! I have no idea about the psi?! This is the small compressor I use for the moment. thumbs.worthpoint.com/zoom/images2/360/0515/11/brevettato-airbrush-compressor-made_360_d282656a40a8b26c0779e4dd1e6fdc73.jpg Looks like this small machine can't produce enough psi to work properly?? I don't find technical details on the internet. The type or brand is 'Brevettato'.

[@SolarfallBaits]

i have no clue, but it does look very puny to me so i dont think it's very powerful.

[@dawetikni]

Hoi, is this compressor a good one to start with: www.alphametal.be/nl/shop/product/31570-hbm-as-48-a-airbrush-compressor

[@MrValyo94]

So I have a question about the resin :) , also I really like you're videos, you're true insparation :) I Started making lures myself I bought the formcast buro , but the resin type I bought is sinking very fast ,without any weights, the resin you're using is floating...Can you tell where is my mistake , or i'm not using the right resin :) :) Thank you very much ,if you reply :)

[@SolarfallBaits]

you have to add micro balloons or filler as its also known for to the mix to make it boyant. stuff like feather lite as already micro balloons added to it when you buy it.

[@MrValyo94]

Thank you a lot dude, thank you very much :)

[@benstewart9368]

What type of wood do you use for carving the master?

[@SolarfallBaits]

In this video the master is not made from wood but from synthetic material called obomodulan, if i do end up using wood how ever, it's usually maple

[@josephray6264]

those things are rare in here

[@valzerna]

does sikablock also work? i think its less expensive than obomodulan right?

[@SolarfallBaits]

i am not familliar with that material so i cant really say

[@goovaerg]

Nice one. Like usual. In another video you mentioned the file you use for the fins. I can't seem to find it. So what file do you use? :)

Just 'done' your channel, you're an awesome talent mate, very special lures indeed, if i had one dont know if I would dare to use it would be heart broken to lose it. Do you need such detail to catch, probably not but you must be very proud when you do. Patreon? only just found out what it is, from a personal selfish cheap-skate point of view no don't, however I suppose it would depend on how much it would cost a subscriber its difficult to commit if you don't know how deep you need to dig into your pockets. You do seem to require some new equipment tho either that or there was a ghost presenting your channel update video!! Must also congratulate you on your English its better than mine and I am English lol.

[@SolarfallBaits]

The "do you need all these details" which i do on my lures is a subject that i think i will do a video on at some point, i have few practical in the field type tests in mind that might be interesting to few lure nerds. The answer is actually not all that straight forward as one might think. As for the patreon thing, I don't think i will do it at this point, it just does not make sense to me considering my infrequent video output and if i do end up needing some new tools or something else i much rather pay it with my own hard earned cash. thanks for watching my stuff ;)

[@Rob-zq8sy]

Sounds interesting will look forward to it.
