Make a soft plastic lure that looks like a tiny person

Me too.

Hell yes!!!

[@henrybronckaerts7044]

Ilonix lures makes em I’ve got one!

[@JEMHull-gf9el]

But is it Marling quality:?

[@jeremyowen1]

This is like your beak vs bill epidemic, I love it. An alligator has a flat, rounded snout. A crocodile has a pointed, sharp snout.

[@andreamontechiarini]

Make an octopus/squid lure!

[@lukedubois7679]

He has now

[@sandradelrivo5554]

basically a skirt with a circle jighead

[@willwailes9298]

It'd be awesome to see you fish that thing in Florida.

[@kmba-9197]

would of slotted the tail three times to give a good swimming action. and free moving arms so they can swing back to the body when cranked but it still was good lure and great idea to make the legs soft plastic.

[@jakeandblu1201]

You should make a catfish lure like a lure that looks like a catfish to mess with bass beds in the spring

[@rylo2036]

that's actually an amazing idea

[@kevinherman4383]

I think it would be cool to see him make one but thar are lures that look like small catfish for just that lol

[@kennethsampson539]

Make it albino

[@kennethsampson539]

Albino so it will be seen right away

[@milesgraham653jsnrjdn7]

You should do a special video where you go out in saltwater and make soft plastic shrimp or jellyfish or a wooden crab/lobster

[@ophiophxgic]

I've got an idea for a lure How about a top water dolphin lure but it dives like the alligator and when you pop it it jumps not sure if its possible though

[@maserlowery2022]

You should buy a Jon boat so you can get out and fish more spots

[@trentlewis2572]

I think he should buy a kayak

[@notnottheslam-jamfrancisco9262]

@Trent Lewis for the size fish he’s tryna get a kayak might be too small

[@burkester6566]

Slam jamfrancisco lol no

[@notnottheslam-jamfrancisco9262]

Burkester why tho, if he is trying to catch big fish and gets one it could sway the kayak too much

[@burkester6566]

Slam jamfrancisco people catch 600 pound marlin from kayaks

You two are a cute 90 year old couple. That raging river fiasco melted my cold little black heart.

i bet the peacock bass and snook would tear that thing up. I bet big catfish in Ocala would bust it's ass as well.

[@willwinn8559]

I've caught big bass and catfish, with baby alligators in their stomach . That would be great in Florida 😎👍👍👍👍

[@nicholaspanther8162]

I was so ready for a new video from you and you should make a baby gar lure

[@briancooper6796]

Live the bait especially the legs. Crazy to watch these old videos and see how your techniques have evolved.

[@bigchungus4271]

So glad I found this channel

[@zigab.2883]

Legs shoud be next to body cuz aligators swim with legs next to body

Chelsea and chip need their own channel.

[@ericdavis9210]

Chip T.v. Sounds legit.

[@oso77373]

I think when crocs and gators swim they put their hand at their sides. Gators stand with their appendages prone when floating. But dude you make awesome stuff. Your detail is amazing.

[@MADExCLEARxMEDIA]

Not sure if someone already said BUT I grew up along the Nile River and I know this is an Alligator bait, not a Crocodile but when crocs swim, they hold their legs really tight to their bodies and only use their tails to propel themselves. That being said, you make some really spectacular baits, sir, thank's for sharing.

[@pyrotech1999-bootlegblades]

I think this has been one of your best videos! Did you ever think about drilling a hole for the legs, and just making a mold that was one solid piece for the two front legs, and another for the two back legs? I've seen that sort of thing on Frog lures with hard bodies and plastic legs. That way, if the legs get worn out, you can just rip them out of the hole and replace them with a fresh pair.

[@ericdavis9210]

Make a zombie shad bait! You could make it look infected, like it died from ligma.

[@davidj9677]

What's lig- lol no

[@audiovisual_404]

whats ligma :think_emoji:

[@konradvesterberg7318]

Lig ma ballls!!!!!

[@andrejslv4192]

So much of what it takes to make a fishing lure transfers right over into regular day life. The things I've learned from this channel in just a few days is insane

[@mikewhitman745]

Yup, it's more about appearance than substance. As shown by the block of wood video.

[@Feyt]

I love how much Detail you go Into, You don't need to put so much Detail into it but you still do I love that Passion. You really Inspired me to get back Into Bait Making and Wood Carving.

[@mtafishing1330]

Just subbed, your baits are functional works of art!

[@bensmego2218]

Hahahaha the new senko. Love the vids! You have some talent

[@GramosiTV]

Such a great lure! While making the legs I was thinking "this wont work, he needs to lay them back like the gators do when they swim" (sorry, my bad english isn't capable of explaining it better :-/ ). I have one more suggestion for you : Let your awesome wife fish your new lures exclusively. She seems to get always fish! :P Just kidding, please never stop entertaining us with your awesome craftsmanship and with the bonus videos of you while fishing! Best greetings from germany, a fan in awe

U should make a tuna lure next

[@MarkWilder68]

Man you cannot judge the level of a lure based on that. If it swims good and it works how it is supposed to at that point it's up to the fish it has nothing to do with you unless you can't get the lure in the water. I design my own lures I did a baby rat and every time I cast that thing I think man if I was somewhere else the fish would be tearing it up just not here.

[@ghost4realbitch]

u should've made the tail out of soft plastic so it'll move more fluidly

[@Baffi_]

Look at some pics of crocs and gators swimming. They tuck their legs back against their body to be more streamlined through the water

[@thefishermanbuilder9605]

Oh excellent! Very good idea!

[@_bradjohnson]

Super excited about the baby croc lure!!!! Very cool

[@_bradjohnson]

Edit: Alligator

[@alexanderreyne872]

Perhaps you should have molded and attached the legs in swim position?

[@Zwaser]

You should make streamlined legs for it. When they swim they fold their legs along the body and use their tail för swimming Edit: I can't spell for shit

[@blooraygerhart830]

Simply amazing work!!!

[@stripermanly]

Just watched this video with my grandson and are about to watch your hybrid striped bass one. You mentioned the Corona virus and been there and done that. People think it’s a joke but for many of us especially with underlying conditions like asthma, (aka me) it’s not a joke and even after a year on contacting it, I still deal with loss of breathing. Stay healthy my friend.

[@Squarebody1994]

I would have tucked the legs in and put a joint right behind the head and like three in the tail. They are almost like snakes in the water.

[@qbnguyen-hoang484]

You should make a Robbie Rotten lure in honor of Stefan Karl Stefansson.

A tapered backstop on your bandsaw will give the blade more support with that tiny blade, your accuracy on your cuts will be more consistent with less float of the blade.
