Found your channel the other day and can't stop watching. Started fishing in 2020. I think you should add your sketches as a pdf file so we can download and do a follow along. Great content and thanks.

Hey brother! Just found your channel today when the great white lure got recommended to me! I’m from a small fishing town on Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia Canada, I’ve watched about 6 of your videos today and I’m going to share the hell out of your channel! Keep up the amazing unreal artwork I love it!

Outstanding job !! I love ultra light topwater bassin and have made 2" prop baits (balsa) every winter since I retired. Going to give this mouse a try. I don't have your artistic talent but I think I can put one on the water to catch a few. Once again, great little mouse !!

Hello, I enjoy your videos very much. I have a suggestion though. Maybe when you make another mouse if you do, you could make them pure white albino with bright, pink eyes, bright pink tail. I think it would look cool and maybe make him a little bigger, not much just maybe double the size is all.

It actually swims better than I thought it would, Nice work. I wondered a few times why some folk don't angle the wire back to help prevent it from pulling straight out but hey, good to see you doing this 👍 Did you ever catch anything with it? Nice dog by the way.

Quick question what paint do you recommend for this and what should i use for clear coat I’m trying to open a wooden swimbait stand in my local farmers market. And since I’m bad at painting I’m gonna let the person who buys it (no one prolly will) paint it and I’ll clear coat it and put hooks on it
@zimmtex
@zimmtex 4 жыл бұрын
I use airbrush paints (linked in the description), which I believe are basically acrylics. If you don't have an airbrush, you can always get started with spray paint. Don't be afraid to experiment! Good luck to you and thanks for your question.

Sorry for the late reply, these don't always show up in my feed. Another alternative is spray paint. You probably won't be able to get fine detail, but you can do some shading and scale patterns with mesh.

Aloha, I've been watching your KZbin vids, such awesome work! Trying to get to that level, I recently had to change epoxy, (can't find envirotex that ships to Hawaii) I've been using what looks like the same you use, East Coast epoxy... I've been having trouble with bumps, (which I'm assuming it's from bubbles) I use a heat gun to remove them, bit it seems more appears when drying... It's a hit and miss to get a smooth final coat. Can you offer any advice?
@zimmtex
@zimmtex 4 жыл бұрын
Hello and welcome to the channel! It sounds like your heat gun is causing the bait to off gas. Try using a flame torch with quick passes to pop bubbles. You do not want to heat the lure. It is the cabon dioxide from the torch that will pop the bubbles, not heat. Hope that helps; Thanks for watching!

Good to hear you are interested in lure making! There are a lot of tools that you will accumulate, but I think the basics are: bandsaw, belt/disk sander, knife and drill. I have links to the stuff I use in the description which includes tools and components. Thanks for watching!

In my opinion the airbrush paint job wasn't necessary, it was looking more natural with the burn marks fur. But still nice lure non the less 😉
@zimmtex
@zimmtex 4 жыл бұрын
I was tempted to leave it like that, but I just had to push it a little further. The thing that bothered me the most is how much the clearcoat filled in the hair texture. I might explore thinner clearcoats for this kind of lure. Perhaps a big rat lure?
