Making a Walleye CrankBait

[@mattl5601]

Would love to see more antique lure builds and also a lure building for beginners series

[@Lawson_E.]

I just got into lure making and would love a series like that

[@kurt.q7977]

Lads he has loads, wer past that now 🙄

[@kingbowlcutsiphone6440]

Beginner series would be awesome

[@larrymazzuca1313]

You have become very proficient in your painting of ppaints that your create . Great work . I think you should be colaberating wit proffessional

[@Winklebott]

Not to plug, but I just got in to lure making. I got a book off Amazon (use Marlings link) Making Wooden Fishing Lures, by Rich Rousseau has been really helpful for me!

[@YouBetchaOutdoors1]

Given the realism of this one and your recent crappie, I think you need to revisit your attempt at making a replica mount. Your skill set is hitting an unbelievable level!

[@marsmilligan7146]

A replica mount is a fantastic idea!

[@tykornblue3618]

@YouBetchaOutdoors for sure

[@rippinlips3633]

Early congrats on 500k! We need a 500k special. Make a jointed wakebait with 500k painted across the side, (in bluegill color) 😂👍🏼 kinda confusing I know

[@brandenreynolds4938]

Yup

[@MrClayshooter14]

Segmented bait that's just the number 500,000

[@kdoni34]

Wow, I remember the original 100k snake. Can't believe we've all got to watch Marling grow!

[@lanavanrensburg9688]

But mine is on 499K but I want to see a a special lure definitely

[@Beriothien007]

Or a snake bait with 500 joints?🤣

[@colinbailey5505]

Those gill striations you were referring to are called "branchiostegal rays", and the number of those rays can be a key ID feature on some fish species

[@daltontinoco7084]

Where do you learn that? That's awesome, didn't know!

[@colinbailey5505]

@@daltontinoco7084 I took an ichthyology (study of fishes) course during my bachelor degree!

The fact you don't have 1million subs yet is baffling. The content is epic. I've even dabbled in bait making myself, because of you.

[@ollesjoblom2129]

Same here!

[@jonnygranville281]

Me too. I've carved some terrible looking lures and done some painting on crank baits.

[@Curtisbarron]

What does dabbled mean

[@bluegrassbassing3790]

Just what I needed after a day at school God bless

Seeing chip pop up in old videos just hits different since he has passed on. I get this happy "aww it's chip" feeling then followed by sad "aw chips gone" feeling. Luckily these videos are here and we all can enjoy seeing chip chip when he was younger including Marling baits himself. Rest easy to the bestest bait making dog there ever was and will be

[@allstarsmith364]

Just the calm cool and collective vibe this guy brings while with great creativity just brings good vibes I wanna try this stuff

[@GoneFishing-8373]

Fun fact, you can make like chipping textures (when painting) , you put your first layer, say white, then you spray 2 coats of hairspray, then you spray your second layer (say black) and then you take a brush, dip it in some water and slowly start brushing the 2nd layer, which results into it chipping off the 2nd layer. (Works best with acrylic paints) oh and also clear coat it

[@Winklebott]

Painting is amazing on this one holy cow. . . No words. . . Just amazing. Love the videos, also obligatory Dunkleosteus lure please!

[@tims_always_fishing8105]

Taste pretty good too

[@SB-qh8ps]

@@tims_always_fishing8105 what do you mean… walleye are very light biters.

[@ScoobyBrue]

That little larva was pretty cute

[@stephenkrambeck6589]

First time I’ve heard you mention bowfin and that would make a great lure, the juveniles I’ve caught have a false eye and the most vibrant lime green fins I’ve ever seenst.

Yeah my friend Candice made it for me.

Marling Baits: Kills "all flies" Flies: Moves in closer when the epoxy is brought out and lands on his shoulder. 17:21

[@sergiosanchez1313]

Theres one also at 16:42 right after he’s done talking about shooting them flys😂😂

[@pflick13]

your baits evolve! they become greater with each creation! That bait was beautiful! So much detail.

[@jefferyholland]

I feel like the flies are mocking him. He just gets done saying he needs to kill all of the flies so they don't get in his clear coat at 16:41 and one buzzes right over his head.

[@richiegibson55]

Wow...I've watched i don't even know how many of your videos and this is probably my favorite lure you've done...all the little details just stunning ...well done sir

[@Vidnog]

You should make a low-poly lure that looks like its from an old video game

[@Marlonscrazy]

The paint is absolutely out of this world. Fantastic work as always, I always play your videos when I’m painting in the shop!

[@Guy61440]

“As walleyes grow longer, they increase in weight.” Ah yes, this floor is made of floor.

Hahaha I got the same idea

[@connorbykowski6592]

[@John94709]

This might be my favorite bait of yours to date, which is saying a lot! Nice to see Chip make an appearance as well.

[@thehaleymorgan7526]

Not only do we love bait and fishing content, but the "Chippage" is exceptional.

Out of the many, many lures I’ve seen you make. This is the 1 I would most like to have in my collection.

Good job👍👍

[@tterryshenanigans1820]

Thanks for another stellar journey. I accidentally turned on my Pandora and hippie sabotage started playing over the paint process and it matched up really well.

Great lure, one of the nicest looking. As for the viewers, don't change a thing with your show. It's great the way it's done.

Honestly the best, and most chill bait maker on KZbin. 🐐🎣

[@_Mr.Giraffe]

Hearing you talk about the bad weather walleye bite reminds me of when we were out fishing for them on Erie with literal 5-6foot rollers. And of course they were biting and we stayed out enduring 8 hours of rain, cold, wind, and monster waves. Worth it. Lol.

[@MrBrown-br7sh]

So I had a horrible day. Thanks MB for saving my sanity; great video. Also, I'm in CT and I jig chartreuse soft plastic paddle tail along the bottom and land walleye all day long. In our neck of the woods they spend 90% of their time at or near the bottom. 5 inch plastics weed out the little ones.

Been about a year since I've been able to do anything with fishing due to getting everything in my garage stolen. Long story short I've been replacing all my stuff. Got most of my power tools replaced and almost all my fly tying stuff. Bought a kayak recently and am about to get ready to start making baits again. I started cause of your videos. Every single video you make is inspiring man. Thank you for this content. My birthday is in November...I'll be 40. Hopefully by then I'll be setup to make a daily fishing/kayaking/bait making video. Sorry for the long comment just really wanted to say thanks. I'd love to buy you a cup of coffee someday. But I know you don't like to leave the house. Lol..can't really argue with that. Tight lines man...wishing you and your family the best.
