- In this video we take one of my favorite twitch baits and turn it into a swimbait...how many segments? As many as you want! This is an endless swimbait.

Nice job, I have been watching your channel for over a month. I love how you explain the science of lure construction, and finish work is the best! Great job! Gary
Awesome, thank you!
Wow that's a great mold. Can't think of anything much better than an engineer making cool fishing lures. Thanks Franco for all you do.
Glad you like them!
I really like how you figured out where to put the line tie. Good stuff.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome video as always..the bloopers at the end are hilarious..be cool if you did a little video of all the bloopers..love your work..cheers 🍻🎣
I don't have the stuff for molding lures, but I still enjoyed watching you make this and picked up a few pointers. Thanks for the post, Franco! Looking forward to part two.
Glad you enjoyed it
Looking forward to seeing the next installment. Cheers
Enjoy
Excellent work as always. I really like your hinge detail, thanks for sharing!
I don't know how I missed this when it came out but better late than never
a true master of lure building - fantastic job
You had me hooked at the intro on this one! Such a cool and versatile idea. Sure hope your wife is feeling better, Franco.
Thanks so much!
Franko I really like how you roll with issues when building like the hinges. Another informative video.
Thanks 👍
Thanks! This is great information.
After sanding for leveling all 3 parts, the lure wasn't so simetric. The left lateral side was a little bulkier near the tail(3'rd segment). Not so important to change the swim but it was there. :P
My mother in law eye saw that.
She was right...I saw it too. Did my best to fix it.
I like this a lot. Ever think about making an eel lure but the same way. All the different sections. Like ur videos a lot. Can't wait till Friday to come to see what ur going to do next.
Thank you.
Tie eye placement trick is the sh!t !!! Thanks.
Took me a long time to come up with that. It's not perfect but it's pretty good and easy to do
Really cool concept! Hopefully there is a test coming of a variety of segments and how it behaves!
Nice lure 👍
Thanks 👍
Hi! Here's my entry for question of the week.
What if I want to cast a mould of a lure that comes with a factory made, hard plastic dive lip? Specificaly, I'd like to make a copy or two of Rapala shad rap shallow running (for my own use, in case anyone from Rapala is reading) which is something I never did before but am seriously considering it since I'm down to the last lure. Do I simply make the mould in a way where I can cast the lip out of plastic as well or will that be too weak?
That's a worthwhile question...keep an eye out for the answer.
just in time for shark week
Another great video ++
Thanks again!
Why don't you use a drill press to make your drilling more symmetrical instead of by hand so you don't get that drill wobble or misalignment
These are small pieces and getting them steady in a vice without damage is harder than holding them...For me at least.
Would you ever make a pdf with a printable lure with all the specs on it? Such as size,hooks ,weights. Possibly traceable?
Yes...just need to fi d the time.
Wow! Amazing concept!
So would you do a hinge the same way using lexan??
Yes
With your swim baits do you always add a split ring to your line tie? I found it gives the bait more freedom to move naturally
No but it doesn't hurt.
Good video
Thanks
like it😀
What resin do you use?
If you could only choose one UV resin to clear a lure, what would you choose?
Honestly the only one I found that didn't work well was an industrial version. Every hobby/craft resin has worked well. I find the best price....
@@EngineeredAngler thanks for taking time out of your day to answer. I really enjoy your videos and have learned a lot, I hope great things for your channel moving forward. Cheers
Thanks bro
