Ryan let me tell you! That hard work on that cheapy wood lure that cost you nothing...and just shows the hard work God gave you back to land a trophy fish! You my man have my all time respect brotha! Keep this type of content up! You embarrassed everyone on that inlet. It was VERY special!
Great change of pace. Never stop asking "what if.....". A Dremel tool would probably lessen the time required for the popper face shaping. With the multitude of attachments, you could carve a Mona Lisa into a dowel, add some hooks, and it'll probably catch some fish. Keep up the good work.
To make the wire stiffer first flat in the end so it will fit a drill Chuck then spend and drill slowly this will take all the twist out of it and will make it stronger I recommend this tip on making your own umbrella rigs
Awesome stuff mate, as you said it doesn't matter what the lure looks like it all comes down to performance, and if it performs how it should or how you want it to then that should get fish, the flashy stuff is just added extra for looks and to be honest most fish or nearly all fish don't care what a lure looks like, it's how it behaves in the water, great video, cracking fish, nice job 👍 👌
After starting out fishing Juno and Jupiter (Blowing Rocks was our favorite Snook spot), my Dad was transferred to Vero when I was 11 and I started fishing Sebastian until I was commissioned into the Air Force. Glad to see you catching that Red there!
Hey man try using tabletop epoxy from totalboat and just pour a flood coat over the lure so you don’t have to paint it on. Might be worth a try, it works great for cutting boards etc
What a video. I luv the lure. My only “complaint” is I would spend more money on the spray paint and epoxy etc than just buying the lure lol. Great vid. Nice job with that fish
Here's a free trick to make a very strong wire through, where you can't see the twist. First an "eye bend" on the wire, where the loose end is a bit longer than the plug. Stick through and make the other end the same, so you end up with an eye in each end, and loose ends sticking out beside them. Then you twist the two eyes, so the wire locks around it self, and shortens up, so your eyes only stick halfway out, which also makes it stronger.
That is a really cool idea. Whenever I catch a truly special fish, I retire the lure that caught it. Just to remember that special experience. You should hang that one up. Make a new one, and use that one. Also, how can anyone give this video a thumbs down???
How rewarding is that? Not that you needed it but was thinking a feather tail might be a nice addition to the lure. Then again the big red might not have ate the lure with a feather. Who knows. Nice one!!
An idea. What if you took the paddle bit and drilled a hole 3 inches in. Then cut across the hole. This will give you 2 popper mouths one on each side of the hole. This would save you a lot of arm work with the sandpaper on the pipe. Just my 2 cents.
Lol "A Poor Craftsman Always Blame's Their Tool's". I have drawers full of the exact same tool's lol. As long as the fish like the lure where's the problem? The hair's make it look even more realistic as a field mouse that's covered in the thing's. Your catch wasn't exactly a minnow so maybe the cheap brushes worked after all. Yep you did good.... Real good congratulations on your PB.👍😷👍 IT WAS A STONKER 👍😷👍 Take care my friend.
I made a popper and I manly used a belt sander to round it out ant then I grabbed a drill bit that was a sedimentary file and I made a bowl for the flopper mouth and I caught 2 bass on the 1 so I'm making more
Why did you go to the deeper part of the pier instead of remaining shallow seems to me like it is harder to handle and more weight to pull upwards.....I can't think of what would make it easier, faster, or more manageable to land fish at end of pier?????
You should check Marling baits channel if you are into making lures, you can learn a lot about diy lure making from that channel, great video dude keep it up
Love your channel man! But the odds of that fish surviving are very low. We drop those fish head first every time Bc they can get that giant burst of oxygen to get there blood pumping again! Nice fish it’s not Juno tho
Super informative video as usual. Sorry to get off topic, but there are some serious plates hanging on that Smith machine, how much are you bench pressing these days?
Haha it’s a squat rack, most of the plates are for deadlifts though! I benched 305 my last week on active duty, but probably couldn’t come close to that weight now!
@@Tyler-kw9ce nothing you know I’ve bought som like $200 worth and we went popping for tuna and we lost all of them 🤦🏻♂️😢😴, like for it to be $35-45 each i rather make my own you know like he said the fish don’t really care ab the looks is mainly ab the action now obviously they got good actions but i could get like 5-40 tsunami walking poppers but they a bit to small for the fishing we do
@@Tyler-kw9ce exactly 🤣🤣, like i seen a $350 popper at a shop in Galveston and i just turned around and walked back to the car like really ! For a popper! Like are you serious 😐🤦🏻♂️
@@nelson442 look up world's most expensive trolling lure sometime. It's insane. I copied this online. "The Million Dollar Lure has over 4,753 diamonds and rubies. It's got over 3 pounds of gold and platinum and over 100 carats of gemstones."
I really enjoy your fishing adventures and seeing you catch the big one, but please try not to use my Lord and Saviour's name as a swear word. He died and rose from the dead for all of us so that we could have our sins forgiven and spend eternity with Him. Thanks, Ryan
A very prideful moment as a fisherman pulling up a pb on your own lure, keep up these great videos 👌🏻
Thank you! Will do! 🤙🏼

Thank you for the kind words Sir! Glad you liked the video 🍻
I am absolutely going to do this with epoxy
That just goes to show that fancy paint jobs only catch fishermen. Great job nothing better than catching one on a homemade lure!
Seen the thumbnail and thought you had a half eating hotdog with a hook and through wire. Awesome stuff going on this channel Ryan.
🤣🤣🤣 lmao. If it works it works
@@RyanMorie just being able to make something that catches is priceless man!!🤙
That redfish was admiring your fine craftsmanship
Dude that's epic! Huge fish and an even more amazing catch on your own lure. Well done!
Thanks man!
cantik lurenya aku suka senior
That was FREAKING AWESOME.
Glad you liked it!
Sick brotha! 🙌
Thanks man! Us smaller channels gotta try and think outside the box haha
That was totally awesome!!
I really enjoyed watching this, it’s relaxing and watching someone craft a lure is satisfying 😂 loved it Ryan
Every good fisherman knows DeWalt is the superior power tool company
Nah Ryobi
thats epic
Use a hole saw drill bit to cut your wood dowel in half should give you the shape your looking for maybe, let me know if that works just thought of it
What an awesome way to test out a home made lure, awesome video as usual man
Great change of pace. Never stop asking "what if.....".

Wow
Reminds me of a Hadden popper from the 1950s my grandad used,if only I had it today,worth a lot of money!!!
That’s too cool! I’ll have to look them up
@@RyanMorie old times baits,worth a lot of money,I wish I had grandaddy s tackle box!

This is nuts man! Congrats!

Excellent content creation right here.
Thanks my man!
You can use stainless tig welding filler wire for the hardware
What a video!!!!! So cool!
I’m glad you liked it!
That’s awesome bro
Call it the glizzy popper🤣
💀😂😂😂

Bro!!! I enjoyed this video from the making of the lure to the catching of the fish! Bro, I was on the end of my seat watching the netting!
It’s pretty cool what a little “suspense” music can do for a video. Thanks for watching! 🍻
Fish on big bro...watching grom philipines
What a video. I luv the lure. My only “complaint” is I would spend more money on the spray paint and epoxy etc than just buying the lure lol. Great vid. Nice job with that fish
This is awsome, great video!
Thank you Sir!
Great job, I'm going to do the same popper. If I get it, I'll take the catch!
Good luck!

Nice... I love what I witnessed, DIY lure and the giant fish... Epic!
That was so Damm cool ❤🙃😃🙃😃🙃😀😀😀

Man awesome lure....just a tip use some super glue and baking soda for the stuff you dont want to move. Learned that from marlin baits.
How rewarding is that? Not that you needed it but was thinking a feather tail might be a nice addition to the lure. Then again the big red might not have ate the lure with a feather. Who knows. Nice one!!
You get what you put in 🙏🏽 congrats
What an awesome video, I loved it I definitely want to make one! That redfish was awesome!
Thanks Tim! Good luck and tight lines 🍻

That’d be next level! We’ll see 🤔
Fvckin love this guy

👏👏👏
Ryans certified
Certified googan! 🤣
Totally awesome. Which pier is that????
Boynton inlet
@@connorlynch6437 Wow totally awesome. Thanks a lot. Wish we had fishing like this in Greece.
Awesome video! I Definitely want to try making my own lure now.
Do it! 🤙🏼
Try to make your own rod I did it and it was really fun
Ya wanna catch some big reds come to NC that was about a 38 inch fish id guess we slay em at cedar island good catch man id deff keep that lure
If you're thinking about making your own lures they do work just may not last long depending on how much time you put into it.
those jig eyes you can google for fishing tackle parts and find a sight for them
Cool! Didn’t know that
Even thou you did not say much in the video, this could be one of your best video thus far , great job /excellent content 🔥🔥🔥🔥👍
You could use a Drumel tool….
what grip type is the phoenix black diamond rod is that split quirk?
You use that rod for some surf casting videos too right ?
Can you tell me what fishing pier you were fishing at towards the end of the video? That pier looks nice, I would like to go there one day!
Well done man 🤙😎🤙
Thanks Jayson
Did you have any leader, or no? If so what leader
What was the final weight of the lurer
So how long was the fish?
No way a bull red on the homemade popper
Good stuff 👊🏼 I'm sure that was pretty satisfying. Was that on the outgoing tide?
Congratulations and great job when are those Lewers going to be up for sale maybe you got something going here $$$
1:03 I cut that thing twice and it’s still to short 😂
Such a dope video man!
Thank you!

Love your channel man! But the odds of that fish surviving are very low. We drop those fish head first every time Bc they can get that giant burst of oxygen to get there blood pumping again! Nice fish it’s not Juno tho
instead of polyurethene i would of used marinetex
Haven’t heard of that, I’ll look it up!

Do a 2/4 lb test challenge off the pier come to dfp and I’ll challenge you biggest fish on 4 lb wins
What reel
@@isaacsalazar2026 would be cool to see a 1000 size reel challenge
seb ryan??
👀 👀
and sebastian kids still think they aint spoiled
Woah I’m early 😳
Florida hear got nothing against texas its hot as crap here in texas man😭🥵😩
Nahhhh! We’re dying over here 🤣🥵
Can you do a littler longer one mext time ?/ 6-8inch? To prove you dont meed to spend money like on the nomad poppers.?
What do you have against the Chug Norris?
