Making A Weight Shift Balsa Fishing Lure Part 3 of 3

[@genothdiaz5910]

excellent , as always. greetings from Barranquilla -Colombia

[@labtrainer09]

Just rewatched this one, which was, is, and always will be brilliant. I truly miss your skill, innovation, creativity, and warmth, Paul. I wish you'd return to KZbin.

[@Fishingwithdave2024]

You really have a special set of skills!! I'm addicted to ur channel

[@ExcellsiorFishing]

The quality in video editing is incredible! As always your bait looked great! Really like the last few videos.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

ExcellsiorFishing I enjoyed making this little series, i think mainly because i had to think about avoiding just repeating myself and try some new things, so i am glad it worked out thanks.

[@tertiaoculus7]

Mr. Paul Adams, I want to congratulate you because it realizes the wonderful things, it takes a great love and patience in addition to technical knowledge, congratulations again by a former fisherman, has my admiration.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

Thanks, i too once thought that I was a former fisherman then i realized i was just a fisherman taking a break to regroup.

[@lightningstrikelures2393]

Always good stuff Paul...has to be the 8th time I have watched this series. Going to start on the weight shift tomorrow...Thank you for the work and inspiration! L/S

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

+Lightning Strike Lures Thanks, I think at eight times there needs to be some kind of award

[@jbender1024]

you are the boss of youtube videos, and homemade fishing lures!! You have inspired me to build my own. keep up the great work, I look forward to your next video!

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

johnny wishbone Thanks, the next one should be a little different

[@pavski]

love the videos - the flash on the lure is great!! keep up the great work Paul

[@marke.1021]

Once again you deliver a great well made video. Glad you don't put out 30 a year of poor quality but selectively choose what to make and do them beyond well! Thanks again for videos worth 2nd and 3rd views.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

Hopefully i should be getting a little faster at making the videos but i cannot see me hitting thirty, i do want to get out more and hopefully over the next few videos the projects should take me to places rather than just filming my hands, thanks

[@theinvasivespecies1119]

You make very good videos, good material and filmed very well.

[@mujairsakti8640]

Saya sudah mengikuti video2 anda sudah hampir 3 tahun yang lalu,tehnik anda membuat lure sangat menginspirasi.Bahkan ada beberapa tehnik saya terapkan juga dalam pekerjaan saya,dan itu berhasil...Tehnik pengambilan gambar video dan cara anda menjelaskan terlihat sangat sabar dan profesional,mudah dipahami walau saya tidak terlalu paham bahasa inggris...teruslah berkarya,Paul....,salam dari Indonesia..Cheers!

[@oppai1568]

Garuda Didada ku Wah anda pernah bikin lure dari tutorial ini gan?

[@mujairsakti8640]

Leo Latus ...tidak 100% tutorial ini saya ikuti,krn keterbatasan alat,bahan dan waktu...tp dalam prakteknya pasti akan timbul ide2 lain...sudah banyak lure yg saya buat..beberapa lure buatan saya harus berakhir didasar sungai,laut bahkan diatas pohon T_T...hahaha XD

[@antonio999us]

Hello Paul As you can see, I was waiting for the third part of this series. Congratulations and thanks!!! I never thought to use a squared tube instead a circular one... it was an amazing idea. I was using a plastic straw, but it was too thin. I'm going to look for a tube like yours. On the other hand, something I did to give a little more weight to the lure, was to set a fixed bigger ball bearing at the front, before to set the magnet, and then, I put the tubular section with the moving balls bearing... It worked very well. The lure fly quite well and swims very good. I'm going to change the thin plastic straw with a thicker tube, in order to give more protection to the wood walls. I will stay alert for your new videos.... perhaps, someday I might encourage myself to make a video doing my own Balsa lures... Paul, thank you for sharing your tips, let's keep in touch.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

I found this tube by chance at an art shop but it is a common item at model making suppliers and made by plastruct, it was also very cheap they make a round tube out of the same stuff. I did want to go a bit further and do something pvc foam, but it will have to wait for another video. I have also found before that keeping some of the weight near the head also balances the lure in flight a little better. Any time you fancy pointing a camera at the lures your making i'll be your first subscriber. Thanks

[@antonio999us]

***** Hola Paul... Even though I do not have big hobby or art shops here in Lima, I will visit the large ones to see whether I find somekind of tubes and other materials. I often get my lures' making stuffs when I travel to the USA or buying them in Internet. Paul, I humbly invite you visit to my channel here in youtube to see what I do... At your side, I am just a quite beginner and I will try to improve my work. I really love it. I feel a huge pleasure everytime I catch a fish with my own spoonflies, jigs and lures. Have a great week

[@ruggerovisigalli6885]

Great job and wonderful video Paul! You are the one as usual

[@breakingbrad5461]

You are a skilled individual sir, congrats on the final piece 👏

[@billyahern7504]

@Paul Adams You sir are an inspiration for everything I love and stand for.

[@sergiagoda7855]

Great series! The quality of the mark. Thank U!

[@eddiekhoo8664]

Paul, you are a legend! totally impressed!

[@justevan6696]

That is one beautiful piece of art you've made. Well done Paul!

[@spencerrogers8726]

Excellent video and ingenuity!

[@jorgedoumat6782]

Muchas Gracias Sr: Paul, nadie podria explicarlo y hacerlo mejor, con sus videos he podido entender y hacer mis señuelos(bait) y asi haber puesto en practica mi inquietud de fabricar mis propios implementos de pesca. Ud es el Mejor

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

+jorge doumat Thanks

[@BradPickett685]

Have you ever thought to make a behind the scenes video also as always I'm amazed at a care and work you put into not only making beautiful most likely better then store bought lures but your beautiful way of editing I spend my fair share on KZbin because I don't watch television and you are by far the best editor I have seen on KZbin soo far keep it up I love every video

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

I have thought about doing a behind the scenes video, but part of me is a little embarrassed about the equipment i am using, the underwater footage in this video came from and old camera inside a £1 lunch box with some perspex stuck to the front and my slider is rigged up to motor from a broken cordless drill. You do not want to see what i am doing with swivel chairs. The "making off", might be something to show if i did a very short project and then showed how it was all brought together, i will have to think about it some more, thanks and glad you are enjoying them.

[@alflud]

***** Embarrassed? Not at all Paul. I think you'll find that people appreciate 'hack jobs' or using what you have to hand more than store bought solutions. Helping folks to find their inner 'MacGyver' is a wonderful thing :) Oh and thank you for another fantastic 10 minutes of viewing too. The stress relief factor in watching your videos can't be beat. Cheers.

[@tymesho]

I agree, I find your well edited vid's to be exceptional! as for your equipment? most guys would love ANY simplicity! it would provide others to get into the process and perhaps bring a new product that would "steal the show?"

[@zoffinger]

***** I'm a fan of the inner MacGyver :) And of the wonderful things Paul Adams' creates!

[@makaveli24k]

that's what I said to paul the editing is so high quality sound and video also, even better than (how its made) this mans voice is very calm and relaxing to hear and the content is of a very high calibre. cheers paul enjoyed every second of it as usual thumbs up for you

[@akaykrkkoglu]

the incredible Paul Adams

[@tymesho]

Paul, unbelievable quality, as usual. I still haven't found the right material I've looked for to create a "true mirror" for a bodied lure. (I really want a black mirrored finish as well). I'm hoping if you ever find a product, you would post the info, as well as I would. I might be chasing a pipe dream, but this idea of mine will not let me rest!? anyways, your post's are certainly appreciated, as I've learned so much from you! regards. Chris

[@augustofranciscodextre5490]

Thanks is very nice your video.....I like your style the fisher man...... Cesar Lima - Perú

[@SolarfallBaits]

great video again paul and a fitting finish to the weigh shifting lure series. how about for the evolution stage for this kind of lure you could try and figure out how to add a rattle chamber there too.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

SolarBaits It makes a good rattle which surprised me as the weights don't have that much room to move , on the last piece of underwater video i left the sound on. I think next it need some kind of face.

[@SolarfallBaits]

***** i'm thinking the sound in the video comes from the split rings and the hooks them selfs hitting the lure body. the lake salmon/trout anglers here that troll for them have been using lures that make a certain pitch when the hooks hit the body, if i remember correctly the optimum pitch was 11hrz.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

no, it was noisy as hell before i put the hooks on, so much so my wife said "can you stop ************ rattling that thing" so i went to the park to play with the water

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

SolarBaits Just messing with the equalizer on the editing software the rattle covers a range of frequencies between 1khz and about 15khz peaking towards the middle. I suppose with some simple electronics you could just generate and 11khz pulse or tune your spoon. Or if you had electronics on board your lure you could just test out different music styles, i think reggae for pike but i am guessing Finish pike prefer Death Metal.

[@brasilbows]

thanks a lot, very well made, Very dedicated craftsman...

[@IVLuresTrulyHandmade]

As always great video , thanks for sharing !

[@wayned5872]

great job Paul

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

[@thenewbofdk]

Fantastic work.

[@fernrjf]

Nice4 video of lure ! Thanks! Robert

[@tayfunmelekoglu1313]

wear a lucky charm my boy cause you are truely talented.After i watch one of your vidioes, in a nut shell,,,i just feel good!...Holeheartedly,, Thank you.

[@KoonceTodd]

Absolutely awesome. Thank you for posting this series it has been truly inspirational. Wondering if you might point me in the right direction for a pair of those pliers. Your loops look so much cleaner than anything I've been able to produce.

[@tanikoev]

great job Paul Will try to do this for trolling depth of 6 meters

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

Tani Koev I keep thinking about experimenting with deep divers and making in the lip ties, as i have just starting fishing some deeper water and also in winter it is nice to kick up some mud on the bottom, thanks and good luck.

[@2rokk]

Great job!

[@bigcheesedog2645]

Darn it! I am just getting halfway reasonable at making the minnow in the original version. embedding the thru wire seems awkward but I am drawing a blank on any sort of suggestion other than the old school using a backsaw to cut the slot and fill it with epoxy. Nice work as always

[@josepaula6642]

Fico show está isca artificial artesanal. Parabéns pelo desempenho 🐟👏

[@BroShaver]

Fantastic movement.

[@tommasofusi3121]

Hello, for the pear I would like to know what type of spheres you used, can they also be found on amazon? Thanks so much.

[@dariodicarlo8532]

Bravissimo complimenti

[@61diemai]

I would not have expected these inline BB's stuck to the magnets to rattle as much as I could hear in the final underwater sequence , Paul , ......I'm really wondering , how exactly this sound is generated , as the BB's should stick together and the sideward play inside of the square plastic tubing also is very small , ...does not sound like steel against plastic but steel on steel , anyway ? Great and extremely well edited video again , .....greetings , Dieter

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

They ball bearings just have under half a millimeter of play, but i think hitting the plastic makes a sharper sound than just hitting balsa, also i have a feel the wood acts like a soundboard in the same way clockwork musical barrels don't; make much sound until they are placed on wood. This was filmed about ten inches if front of a compact camera in a modified sandwich box and the sound has not been altered in any way, i just thought i would play it instead of over dubbing, but it might be interesting to go and try it with some other lures. Thanks Dieter

[@61diemai]

***** That very small play inside of the square tubing is what is puzzling me most , the BB's do lack a certain distance of a run-up to hit the inner tubing walls with enough force to generate such a fairly loud noise , also the cadence of the single clicks in relation to the frequency of wobble does not seem to match that very small distance that the BB's could move sidewards ! And it would be hardly possible , that the BB's would be hitting one another by moving forward and backward parallel to the lure's center axis , as the lure rocks and wobbles towards either side only . I aggree to your other statements regarding different sounds generated by BB's hitting harder or softer materials , but Imust admit , that this lure of yours remains a mystery to me and shatters all of my thoughts and experiences about lure rattles(though your design surely is not intended to function as a rattle , but a long cast system in first place , I suppose ?). Greetz , Dieter

[@nelsonricardodias7682]

seus vídeos são sensacional,bem detalhado o projeto,so preciso de uma tradução para o português

[@GliteFishing]

Great video!!!

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

Glite Fishing thanks, when are you making another video?

[@GliteFishing]

Probably Next week *****

[@sebastiansavini4322]

Hola genio!!! Soy de argentina y siempre veo tus videos, me encantan, te hago una pregunta , cuanto mide el babero de acrílico ? Desde ya mil gracias!!!!

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

sebastian savini 18mm x 15mm

[@LordG992]

Good job.

[@vasiligavoyani1819]

hi ... plz explain me about lip theory or when i can read and learn about what physics it create to the bait and what things to do to maximize the effect as much as possible ... i hope it isnt just from experimental and "eye it " .. i already do some lures with just eye and they turn nice ... i love your videos , they inspire me and they was helpful so much at my beggining .. i love your way u shoot and explain things , i think this takes so much time for 1 video ... keep it up man ^_^

[@lakapatuli6181]

Creative.....👍👍👍👍👍

[@sebastiansavini4322]

Mil gracias !!!

[@guidoandreoni3575]

Great!

[@AbacosAbaco]

muy guay esta muy bien las manualidades guay

[@coops9871]

Hi Paul, Great videos. Could you tell me where you get the long closed eye hooks please. I can't find them on the net other than America. Keep up the videos. Coops.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

I bought these hooks from Mark at lurefactors.co.uk/ in the uk they are no. 6 thanks, i am working on two videos at the moment, so hopefully not too long

[@coops9871]

Ahh sorry I meant the eyed screw in bit to hold the hook or trace end. Many thanks for the quick reply.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

Paul Cooper I make them from tig welding wire 1mm which i get on ebay, the process is shown in the first video in this series

[@coops9871]

Awesome many thanks Paul.

bravo bonne finition.

[@BxBxProductions]

Woah how did you capture the underwater footage :o

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

that was a camera in a modified tupperware

[@forresthenry9535]

Question: I don’t have an airbrush, would spray paint suffice for painting the lure?

[@qislegit.donttrustthemedia6232]

Where have you been my friend? Hope you are doing well 🙏🏻

[@peterolesens]

Well done, Paul! I am in the process of making a couple of 21 cm sinking stickbaits. I would like to try this weight shifting system. Any reason you use 420 grade? It is rather expensive in the sizes I need! 😀

[@arabarran]

420 grade is magnetic.

[@faridalrangkuti3882]

magnetic stoper... mhhmm... that's fresh new idea

[@lotfytime]

I LOVE these videos!!! I c that you dont use epoxy in these videos to glue you lures together, do you find super glue works just as fine? Great Video :)

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

Michael Loft I have never had problem using superglue for gluing internal faces, and when i have opened lures up a gain i found the joints are far stronger than the wood. So in these veneered lures it is almost like having another four very tough laminates. The draw backs are that it goes off very fast so if i put something in the wrong place it is staying there. Some lure builders use it to seal the lures as well before painting, but it is not something i have tried. Thanks

[@mustak324]

Hello Paul, I've just discovered your videos and they are amazing. You give us all very thorough and informative lessons in lure making and you're filming them great. I have just one remark if you allow me. Your intonation in most of the videos is making me want to scream and throw heavy things. I am 100% sure this is not the normal way you talk to people otherwise you would not have survived so long. I don't know why you're taking like this, probably you're afraid people won't understand your accent or something, but i can assure you that here kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXiqeIV_mdSYopo for example where you talk normally you are perfectly understandable and sound just perfect. Please don't take my comment as an offence as it is not at all intended to be one. Keep up your great work. I really appreciate it.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

+mustak324 I am not offended its great to have honest feedback, I think one of the hardest things about videos is trying to find a voice, oddly the video you highlighted is not how i normally talk either but it is a little less constrained than the voice overs. I think when I look back over the videos,some of the voice overs have gone far too much towards the sound of a bedtime story rather than getting over the information i need to with some clarity. Getting information in the fewest possible words so the video doesn't go on for an hour is a big task and that often leads me down that route. Editing the videos is also a lot about playing with time, and making decisions about how i say things, do i say them with sound, with an image, with a voice over, that is something i am still learning. With the next video I am working on the plan is the mix it up and talk to the camera in 'normal' voice so i am in shot and with the voice overs to give other information, this has been a huge learning curve to that, i am not sure i have nailed and in some place the sound is bit rattling. Despite feedback good or bad I understand that I am not going to please all the people all the time, and i do get positive comments that my voice is helping to stem the tide of insomnia. cheers the new video should be out by the end of the week.

[@mustak324]

+Paul Adams (The Handmade Fisherman), thanks a lot for the reply and for the understanding. I guess there is a whole universe i don't know a tiny bit about, related to video editing and voice overs. I'm totally looking forward for the new videos and once again - thanks a million for what you are doing :) Cheers!
