I know everyone wants the Big Fish but I really enjoy seeing what is actually possible with micro baits

[@OperationBlueberryExpress]

My favorite thing about micro lures is that you can also catch big fish with them, and the fight is usually more fun if you’re using lighter tackle. I was fishing for bluegill with a tiny minnow lure and had a nice sized bass strike it. My reaction time was a little slow and I missed it lol.

[@finnalexander17]

check out fly fishing. catching 3-8 pound trout on lures literally the size of ants

[@bac1308]

​@@OperationBlueberryExpressI remember experiencing the food chain as a kid. Cricket, to bream, to giant bass that cracked my little pole. I liked bass fishing after that.

[@JacobE-23]

My buddy uses 32nd ounce crappie/panfish jigs and catches some real nice pickerel with them all the time lol. Like almost full grown ones. On ultralight tackle. It's an awesome fight.

[@OperationBlueberryExpress]

@@bac1308 I just enjoy being by the water or on the water. I never really fish for one species. I’m a “fish for whatever bites” kind of guy. I’ll have live bait out while I’m working a lure just trying to catch something.

[@cobye7512]

Undoubtedly the cutest popper I’ve ever laid eyes on

[@caseywood9781]

My immediate first thought was "that's a cutie Perch popper"

[@aaron6600]

Just had back surgery.... I can't tell you how happy I am that you just uploaded this video! Thank you Nate

[@RedTailFishing]

0:33 Chip looking at you like " you okay bro?" 😂 Killer little popper, love that paint scheme too! Came out sweet even with an eye bubble!

[@tiny_paul]

A build along series would be absolutely awesome

[@finnalexander17]

agreed a “making your first bait” step by step video would be awesome. i’m not very artistically inclined but i’d like to build my own bait other then tying flies

[@HershelThompson]

Yes to all of this please.

[@nghtguy13]

Literally makes my day each week. Thanks for being awesome 🕺💪🎣

[@matt21945]

I love micro/nano bait fishing. It would be awesome to see you make the smallest hard body bait you believe you can and catch a fish with it.

[@sweaspurdoddd5466]

You're the only KZbinr I turn ad-block off for.

[@scotmhead]

I was so thrilled for you when you did the second water test and it popped like crazy, that's awesome. My very first topwater of significance was a huge blowup on a Rebel Pop-R when I was a teenager. I did not land the fish, I didn't know how to fight a large fish yet, but I saw it jump several times with a mouth as big as my head, and that was all I needed for that moment to make topwater fishing special.

[@shannonferguson7020]

Another great day for a marling baits one day video

[@saltyguerrillas7960]

Hey mate, just wanted to say. I love your videos. I look forward to each one day you do. You have made me want to start making my own hard body lures. I live in Australia and fish exclusively with lures, fresh water and salt. Lots of big fish over here!

[@austin_trulove]

You should make a video basically going over the beginning tools and things to get to start bait making. That's the reason I hear many people say why they don't start making baits, they don't know where to start.

[@AlucardsDarkestNight]

The more I watch you, the more you seem like the new era Bob Ross. Just super satisfying to watch.

[@steev927]

Ultra-light / nano topwater suggestion: A re-imagined jitterbug, could even be segmented with a feather tie on the back hook. Maybe it would look like a fly, wasp, or moth that landed on the water and was trying to fly away...

[@austinbraswell1543]

You could try a single hook on the back like a size 6 octopus hook or something similar, they even make some that come coated in fluorescent color patterns

[@bobbyhempel1513]

I think an ultra-light version of the heddon torpedo would be pretty cool.

[@jimmyjones2426]

Heddon makes one. The Teeny Torpedo. 1 1/2” long. Used them heaps in Australia 20+ years ago 👍🏼

[@bobbyhempel1513]

@@jimmyjones2426 an inch-and-a-half is not tiny. I'm talking three quarters of an inch or less. You know something a bluegill can eat.

[@jimmyjones2426]

@@bobbyhempel1513 sounds more like fly-fishing to me mate 👍🏼

[@mnstrxj3280]

Your thinking of something the dia of a sharpie marker X 3/4" long with a size 1 propeller blade.

[@aidancampbell2656]

Ultralight lures air my favorite videos of yours because they involve creek fishing and wading

[@kalynmiller666]

The satisfying "pop" sound one of those I have is absolute fishing perfection.

[@TheFishinMortician]

Another flash back to why i followed this channel in the first place!

[@quintontaylor7858]

The way nate says "One Day" brings me infinite joy everytime

[@FreedomFishing]

It's Ker-plook-al. Popper came out sick. 🤙 Let's see an ultralight 2.5 spy bait.

[@Grand-Massive]

I think it would be a cool idea if you made a small crankbait (around 2 inches) but you put on as massive of an eye as you possibly can. Basically make it like a 3d eye jig head but its a crankbait. You could even paint the body to look like it has all the nasty looking connective tissue behind the eye if you wanted.

[@nghtguy13]

Or just make a giant eyeball bait with the stringy bits on the back 🤣

[@Grand-Massive]

@@nghtguy13 That's basically what I mean. I just think it would have the best action as a crankbait.

[@GDaddyTx]

I really liked the little guy. It looked like a fun bait to fish with. 🎉🎉🎉

[@hunterreed1522]

Long time fan and I don't think I've ever seen you do a mole cricket. Would be very detailed and small but I believe in your abilities👍

[@icreyes3]

I like seeing fish after fish regardless of size! It's official; Khalix likes them all!

[@leadfreelures]

Nothing better than putting on some lure making from Nate while I tie up some jigs ❤❤❤ good way to start the day 🌞🎣

[@irvingolivissr.3172]

@Marling Baits I appreciate the skill level and talent that was put in this build. I love using this size lures

[@jesseboyden3119]

Your channel is so relaxing. It's like therapy for me lol

[@rosemaryabbott1020]

You have so industrious! I remember when 11:00 AM was early for you to get started. Atta Boy!

[@8ifoto]

I couldn't help but notice chip chewing his deer antler chew.... have you ever thought of making a bait out of antler? I make rings from them, and it is an awesome material to soak and reinforce with superglue!

[@owenminnerly3792]

love your videos! I actually started baitmaking once seeing you make them :) I made a jointed crankbait with a holographic rose pink belly and jet black top with silver eyes and it kills. Thank you so much for inspiring me to do this. Ive been fishing since 3 years old and I have never fished with such confidence before making baits. Thank you

[@user-lr5ts9ir6o]

Love this. I have done the exact same thing. Lol. I've been bait making for a couple of years now and it is pretty addictive

[@rchouser123]

Thank you for creating content I wouldn't hesitate to let kids watch. You're entertaining, informative and fun. Don't you ever change!

[@Gathorer]

Just started making my own baits a week ago and am now addicted this one was fun to make since it was small lol.

[@dillonsurratt]

Yes baby! New uploaddd. I watch marling like you'd watch the news

[@akamiddlechild]

Just FYI Nate, 23:22 Those tall plants that have purple dapple/ mostly purple stock, with white flowers is, Poison hemlock.

[@joker747A]

Every time I see deer while fishing I catch fish. It’s like a connection with the earth or something. Lol. Whatever it is… I love it! Thanks for the video and great looking micro popper. You have a new subscriber from Alabama. 👍🏼

[@noelsdernordmann]

U r the reason why i start to make my own lures….awesome chanel and awesome work. Greetz from Germany 😃🙋🏼‍♂️

[@Homiewithanextrachromie-xm7ee]

Thank you so much you inspired me so much that I am getting into bait making, I am only 11 years old and have made my first micro popper like yours!

[@nanettebarling1222]

Oh, that will catch bass too! I love that popper!

[@ericg4626]

What a classic and beautiful bait man. Love how tiny it is!

[@galthar5]

Loved the video. The nano was awesome. Enjoyed watching you hit the creeks with it.

[@thereelfishermansforge5473]

I haven't done any real ultra light fishing in so long it pains me. I can't get enough of your videos. Like a lot of folks here, you have inspired an old man into trying his hand at making his own lures as well. I live over seas right now and carp is the thing. Very slow. There are a few bass and pike. But lures are expensive. Thanks so much for what you. As for a different bait to make, how about a top water June Bug? Catfish at dusk will even come up to grab them.

[@kameronrogers2568]

Yes so far my favorite paint job u done yes with them Lines really like that decision

[@michaelschlipp480]

What makes me happy is i have a grasshopper with the same color scheme

I enjoy seeing little baits catch big fish bigger does not always mean better

[@LJSfishing]

Can I buy one like this from you ?

[@ahti29]

A japanese style 2 inch minnow with the finest details you can do.Take your time,lets call it a "two-day"!

[@wkLeoTrooper]

Tungsten is less toxic than lead, it's been used as an alternative to lead shot for waterfowl.

[@rchouser123]

What you aren't told is that they mix tungsten powder with lead anyway in most cases. I guess it uses less lead, but still...

Imagine if he started teaching A lure making class at the local College ❤❤❤

[@Bamyasi]

Nice popper my man. By the way tungsten is a relatively inert metal. To say it's safer than lead would be quite the understatement.

[@bheineez]

I've been watching your chanel for years.. you still amaze me with tour talent.. great video! Thanks

[@vAtom.]

every man can relate to this guy. building stuff with wood and tools to go fishing, kicking a ball as hes walking, skipping rocks, and filming a youtube video

"One day "🎉🎉 ,,, my favorite line to say when my wife ask me to do something or when things are going to get done around the house 😅

I like watching you catch fish. Because thanks to my local gas stations the five lakes that are close to my home are now polluted and Dead

[@Shineonyoucrazydiamond1]

I love your channel thank you for your creativity and fun personality

[@Miniaturegeek]

I've been watching these videos for about a year now, and I just realized you're saying "O-fish-al" and not simply "official". Your pun game is strong.

[@merlescott8455]

How about making a lightning trout. It's a super cool and colorful fish I used to dream of catching when I fished as a kid in California. My wife and I love watching your videos you have an amazing talent keep up the amazing work!

[@kevinleee3408]

I love seeing you catch a fish in the wild

Holy moly Fin is growing fast!!!

So excited for the new upload. Watching right now

[@Fruitcupper]

Right on! I'm a huge fan of micro lures too, very enticing to Australian Alps trout.

[@selaher8670]

Micro swim baits for mini creek pike that would be cool and a nice challenge

[@andrewjones8848]

Creek fishing is always a good time

[@dfox7777]

The nano-popper was awesome! I'd really love to have one of those! I'd bet it'd be killer in the spring around the spawn.

[@lakeforkwiring]

Very cool dude ... Brilliant !!!

[@heyjim52]

Ultralight would be great , good job on the popper.

[@RayHall-yo8ib]

I'm a ultra light fisherman,, even going after big fish with a lighter rod , but pan fish is my favorite,, I wish I could afford to buy some of your lures, they are awesome,, I don't have a way to make them, after my wife died, I sold our house,, and live in a apartment,, I've been watching you for years , thank you for so much for bringing me so much joy,, and heart break every time you snag a lure ,,

[@matthewbutcher9246]

Great lure 9.8/10, brilliant skimming of stone 10/10

[@williamparker8318]

Tungsten is not toxic. Exposure to fumes if it gets hot while machine might be an irritant but that it. It's a hard material and will dull your power tools easily. Just grinding out the dust will make your burr bit less effective. When we were young we'd make darts using copper tungsten because of the weight factor, hardness, and it's resistance to corrosion. Cheers. Oh, nice popper.

[@tammyjackson-gq6jj]

I love bream fishing, that would work great!

[@threengcircus]

Love the nano's! Would love to see a series of juvenile patterned nano's.

[@alananderson1615]

Love the 'micro' baits. So much more practical where i live with trout around.

[@bjcox6695]

Awesome little popper, Nate! Always love to see you mix it up with a micro bait 💪🎣 Tungsten is much safer than lead, and ~1.7x as dense!

[@khairulumam3278]

I really like when you build the small baits 🎉

[@DylanPWN]

One days are my favorite!

[@marksmithson1414]

The small ultra baits are so cool

[@ArmchairDeity]

One of my favorite styles of fishing is "microfishing"... using a #17 trout hook, a baby split shot and the tiniest bobber you've ever seen, all on high-end 4# fluro and catching everything from red shiners to sunfish fry to tadpoles... it's some fascinating fishing, very accessible, and a look at a whole other layer of the freshwater aquatic ecosystem!

[@tylermims]

My favorite videos of yours are the tiny baits!

[@LAUGHOUTLOUDPUPPETS]

that is my favourite bait you made so far i really liked this one

[@remcovanvliet3018]

You should use some of that mother of pearl to do inlays on a bait some time! Maybe make a lil rainbow trout with that pink iridescence on the sides.

[@ryanruchkall4195]

Your kid is growing up so fast!!

[@kiwi_comanche]

There's stuff being satiated on this channel. I'm not sure I'm ready. Holy crap.

[@Brunnen_Gee]

Yeah, I'd buy that. I love micro poppers, one of my favorite things to do on ultralight gear. They're not easy to find though, I only have a couple in my kit.

[@tork62077]

That was a very cool lure!!! 😮

[@williamlivingstone4326]

A build along!!! Yay!

[@doc3738]

Wouldn't mind seeing you take a whirl at a rooster tail and head back to the trout spot!

[@user-qy4xy9yn8q]

You should make a orange-throat darter it’s a really crazy looking fish

[@whoa434]

Me and chip have the same reaction to "ooone dayyy" 😂

[@Jimbob-yp6yi]

I am on with making me one of these little beauties, as always good sir, one hell of a video 🫡

[@HammboneBob]

There's a lot of different forms to tungsten, most sites say it's safe but others mention carbides can cause irritation on different severities. Also can you maybe wear some eye pro in the paint room? A respirator too would be cool.

[@noasmits1375]

I haven’t watched this guy in a while good to be back

[@kenj.8897]

Your a real artist.

[@kashedbowl3893]

Love the ultra light stuff! Next micro bait? I vote bladed jig/crank or your interpretation of the flatfish/lazy Ike I miss the chatter buddy RIP

[@kyosanim9581]

great lure, wish I had the knowledge, skill and space/place to do the same. Good job!
