Making soft plastic shad lures part 2

This is the second in the video series where I make a basic injection mould from the master I made in the last video and cast some fishing lures for a bit of test.
Soft plastic is available from Lurefactors.co.uk , lureparts.com , makelure.com , bearsbaits.com , www.jannsnetcraft.com

As always Mr Adams. Great stuff!!!

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks

[@flaviohasimi1286]

Great job as always Paul ... Thank you for giving this awsome time to all of us. I would like to see some fishing trips in the future so if possible that would be another great video !!

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

I have a fishing video to edit at the moment but it is not lures, thanks

[@geraldswain3259]

Cracking video!! very impressed with tutorial ,simply explained with great results and easy to follow.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks, this was a first time for making a bigger lure so i really just wanted the process to work more than anything

[@Az2FL]

those turned out perfect! looking forward to the true testing with fish!

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks, so I am I

[@cecapfishing9882]

[@Melanzyk]

Great video Paul :) love the rotating shots and overall video quality.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

got the overhead rig out again for a bit of fun

[@TheFishinDad]

This is seriously the coolest channel on youtube. I can't believe I only just found it. It combines my two favorite things, wood working/ DIY and fishing. Freakin love it sir. Congrats on the success. Earned.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks

[@power3516]

nice work Paul, I personally think of making such kind of a lure as well, thanks for these informative videos.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks

[@ratdog3055]

Nicely done, may have to experiment with soft plastics this winter

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

its like drugs, good luck

[@SolarfallBaits]

cool video again paul and what a great idea adding the plunger into the mold it self, very ghetto but seems to work just fine.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

most of the lure is filled with gravity so it only needs a little push

[@88mikemoody]

As always, great video Paul! I found your injection mold solution quite intriguing. I just started pouring and I don't want to spend the money on injection molds nor do I want to sacrifice the joy of making a lure from scratch!

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

These really rely on gravity as well as the slight pressure needed to overcome it rather than aluminium mould which often require more pressure to force the air out. These are other materials I hope to experiment with to make the moulds before i turn to a cnc machine

[@davidharvey5672]

fascinating stuff. Thanks

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks

[@tonygrubb8530]

Excellent work Paul

[@FishingChanneltv]

cool vid has always

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks

[@Rebelution-nk5mp]

Nice job

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks

[@fresh2salt318]

amazing work beutiful

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks

[@fishhct9057]

You should make baits like a Huddleston or baits mother magnum trout that would be a really cool project

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

i am working my way up to bigger baits, not sure how far i will get still got a lot to learn, thanks

[@tanikoev]

it just is unique thanks to video

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thank you

[@TheAudiostud]

Loved Every Minute Of Your Latest Video Another Superb Production Both Of Creativity & Cinematography I Think We Sometimes Forget Just How Hard It Is, To Make Something Look So Simple And You Hit It Every Time Paul. If I Might Add So Tech Advice Make The Tail End Of The Shad Slimmer And The Tail Fatter That Way You'll Get Better Action The Rubber Shads I Buy Are Like That "Great Work, Well Done" 10/10 If I Might Add Too There's A Video Production Company Out There, That Would Benefit From Your Skills You Are Without Doubt A Very Clever Fella

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

Thanks i still have some adjustments to make to the tail, i don't want to make it thinner as they have tendency to get damaged very easily and also casting them ends up a bit messy but it certainly needs a some more paddle, thanks again

[@xoctlv]

My experience is that tail angle to body must be more close to 90 deg. This will makes tail move more agressive/play more even in slower movement of bait. Because of that I sometimes melt factory made plastic baits with lighter and change angle of bait tail. ;)

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

may give it a go, thanks

[@filipeflorencio7306]

perfeito

[@cr0cket01]

love the vids is there way to make the plastic stiffer or softer? why do you seem to like Aberdeen hooks so much? I just getting stuff to start myself lol busted airbrush first day got it got the wrong clay stuff to make bit you put in molds so not of to good start

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

the plastic is avaible in different grades and you can by softener and hardener additives

[@cr0cket01]

thanks for info

[@lourensjoubert8652]

two thumbs up as always......have you ever thought of making the paddle disproportionately big and body smaller.... in order to make lure slower and action more? just a thought I have been toying with

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

I think it is about finding a balance, this lure needs a little more in paddle size department, i would like the paddle to work when the weight of the jig head pulls it down in the water and at the moment it is a bit slow at starting, thanks

[@geraldswain3259]

Thanks for the reply I think it's going to start to get difficult now ! in combining the colours in the lure??. Regards Gerald swain

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

hopefully not too difficult, i think i need to sort out that tail first

[@JaredElliott1]

Just wondering...is it cost effective to make your own lures this way or do you do it simply as a hobby? I ask because once you have made a mould, you only have to purchase the material used in the lure. Great video as usual. Thanks!

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

it is a difficult one, i think you will always be able to buy something cheaper, price wise once you have a mould it can cost something 5p- 50p per lure in plastic . But for me it is the hobby, thanks for asking

[@basscasters2185]

i am thinking of making glide baits and swimbaits any recomendations for what wood to use?

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

I would start out with scrap wood like pallets or old furniture, lighter wood tend to make more flighty lures and harder woods more gliding as a very rough rule. I think my favourite wood is beech because it is easy to work with any tools having a fine often knot free grain

[@AyaanKhan-ce7xe]

What type of paint did you use?

[@scottp7937]

Great video. I didn't quite understand why you wanted the lure polished and shiny however, also what is the point in coating the lure with silicon via disco ball prior to putting into the mould? If anyone has any tips how to recreate a soft plastic that's no longer made (but I have a few left) that'd be amazing. Thanks :)

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

If you make a shiny surface you get a shiny surface on the mould and on the lure you cast in the mould. Putting silicone on while the lure turns stretches it and pops any bubbles trapped in the silicone to give a better surface finish on the mould and on any lure you make from it. I would look at kzbin.info they have videos on copy existing lures

[@scottp7937]

Thanks so much Paul!

[@marceloteixeira3824]

o Paul faz parecer tão fácil, fabricar iscas.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

than you

[@aaronsfishingandoutdoors2344]

Hey how about an umbrella rig build

[@bullykuldo6233]

try experimenting with the different types of rubber like medium to hard just for the tail only re try your original mold in original siizes . Tony

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

i did, i started out with hard and ended up with soft, but i just enlarged the tail on the latest video

[@leightonlaughlin5018]

Is tulip good wood for making lures?

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

yes i have made a few lures from it

[@user-ce3mt1wz4x]

goodidea

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

thanks

[@joshlloyd8262]

Method feeder part 2?

[@falcorob2616]

Another good, informative, totally unpatronising vid. Again. Keep it up mate. And get well soon you muppet.😉

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

I my hand does look like a muppet, It is a constant reminder of my ability to behave like a knob head, cheers

[@falcorob2616]

Maybe we can get out and chuck some wood at the scenery when you get better? I only live 30 minutes away.

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

it would be great but i am crap at arranging things and turning up, generally i get to fish at short notice and normally in the week

[@falcorob2616]

Me too. Probably arrange it and then end up having to go shopping or something anyway.😏

[@jordanhall6707]

+Paul Adams do you sell lures

[@bogdanpopis3253]

10:40 is it a other lure on the grund?

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

feather or leaf

[@alanassitkauskas2556]

when method feeder part 2?

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

when my hand gets better, which may a few weeks had a bit of a fire work incident, i look a bit like a mummy

[@lazzyblock1795]

Paul you need to make a rod and a reel

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

I have a rod blank that is waiting to be put together, time i my enemy, thanks

[@davidcarr4464]

Where is the ling to part1 ?

[@jimfly5983]

Could this be anymore complex?

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

oh yes, ican get the vacuum pump out and the pressure casting machine, not mention the cnc i am building that is when the real fun starts. There are much easier making lures but i like to over complicate things it in my dna. Check out makelures.com they have some much simpler approaches

[@thatsnice1073]

did you give up on the popper?

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

no, i just go off in different directions but i have injured my hand with a firework so i may not be doing much at all for a week or so. Do you have an electric drill

[@thatsnice1073]

yes i do have an electric drill. I would like to make and try some of these lures here in new zealand

[@papaclank]

Can you spray paint soft plastic lures? Anybody?

[@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman]

yes, there are a few different methods, check out solarfall baits channel and splish splash channel

[@NGAF.]
