Who in their right mind spends $300 on a fishing lure that can be lost in a single cast. My $10-15 crank baits catch plenty of fish.

[@mattyparsons5476]

The swimbait scene is very niche and the guys that fish with $$$ lures aren’t fishing brush piles and shit. They’re hitting big open water rock structure or deep bluffs. When swimbait dudes hit snaggy situations they’re throwing battle shads or baca burritos.

It's like anything! A $1000 dollar car gets you from point a to b the same as say a Corvette. But people buy the Corvette because they're afficianados and appreciate the extra work that goes into them.

[@youngangler6237]

@@seanp9157 but are there seriously lures on this planet that cost that much because that's seriously just rediculous as there's plenty high quality lures out there that couldn't be much better that cost nothing more than $50 and I thought that was expensive and when you loose it to a fish idk if your chasing that bugger down.

[@thefishingpol]

I don't even spend $10-$15 a lure. My 3.99 lures catch plenty too as do my .25¢ per plastics baits. edit) Then there's the grandaddies bait of all at .10¢ each (or free if you get them yourself) crawlers and minnows! Really, y'all spend WAYYY TOO MUCH money!! 😆

Wtf do you mean?! THAT IS EXPENSIVE!!! Mr. Money bags! I’m still digging for worms in my yard! I started making fly lures. I already have everything. Birds out here drop feathers like crazy! And kids have a hobbit room with all that jazz. I can’t afford to buy 3$ lures, now 8?! I can dream!

Start with an LLC for now but if your income gets higher, you will have to convert to co. To an actual Corp. you will have options, get yourself a good CPA that will actually do good work for you! Know your limits on what you can write off, donate, and gifting. Also, IRA’s CAN help... these are things you must educate yourself on. Don’t think you know it, MAKE SURE you know it! Stay smart! Think ahead. Don’t tell people your plans. Keep your journey quiet. There are a lot of haters in the world. Good luck!

Nice try , but that isn't going to convince me to buy a $25 fishing lure ! 😀

[@jimbojones3124]

I wouldnt spend 25 on a lure due to it being too cheap ! i think its more to do with high pressure impoundments/lakes where finesse and lure reslism is key .. needs to look spot on .. ends up being expensive

I have had one since, spring of 2022 and threw it every once in a while. When it seemed the conditions were right, but never had any success with any glide baits. And then I saw your video on the same one I had, and after performing surgery, I finally caught my first bass on a glidebait. Not a monster, but a nice 3.40, largemouth that now gives me the confidence to keep that bait on my rod and that bait in the water. Thank you for your video, David

Why don't you just design the bait that way in the first place if you already know it enhances the action? You could make another swim bait with the plastic you'll save from a dozen baits.

But on good side, 6th just dropped the Draw Jr, 6.5 inch draw that i grabbed a couple best colors early. the draw is far superior to flow glider.

[@ethandixon6580]

So question: why is a bait manufacturer giving a video on how to make their own glide much better with basically 2 simple cuts instead of I don’t know… doing it themself in manufacturing? Also, why would I buy this one when my Swaver 168 has some outstanding action out the box with no mods and is 8 bucks cheaper
