How to Make a wooden Crankbait That Looks Like a Mullet

  • Making a crankbait that looks like a mullet is a common theme for me. I love this color scheme, a mullet pattern works everywhere. This style of lure is something I have not done a video on, until now.

      I feel a colab coming marling and the engineered angler. How about marling makes a 2 lure bodies finishes one and sends E A the other lure body to shape and finish and A E makes 2 lure bodies shapes and finishes one and sends marling a lure body to shape and finish. See how different or similar your ideas are and how the swim . Challenge do you do you guys want to accept.

    As always you provide enough information verbally and visually for someone who listens and watches will be able to make a similar lure. And the calculations are a much needed part of the construction process, because making something that works really well is in the details. Thanks for sharing your time and joy of building lures with all who will watch.

    Thanks Franco, very nice build! Great paint-job! Like the way you made the tail, might give that a try. Call me lazy, I typically use a treble hook dressed with squirrel tail (reverse-tied, folded back, flattened, set the base with a bit of uv resin and cut in a "V" to shape) that is quick to make.

    • @EngineeredAngler

    • @hankvana2149
      @hankvana2149 2 роки тому

      @@pakde8002 True! I tie a lot of streamer flies and jigs (for bass and walleyes) so embellishing a hook with feathers or hair is "normal" for me and plain hooks do look naked 😀 I admit that for some lures dressed hooks as just "eye candy" but other lures (like Franco's Lolipop) really benefit from the dressing. I add a 4 - 5 inch long bucktail to the Lolipop which gives it a nice profile with great action that the bass are fond of. Cheers!

    Finally caught a break to focus on this build. I've got my own custom trolling rod project on the bench and just finished wrapping the ring guides. It's lunch time and too hot to start working with epoxy so I thought let's see how Franco is doing. Impressive as usual blah blah blah.
    Lets talk about my true love, coffee. Sounds like you brought a stock of Columbian coffee back. Can't beat fresh locally sourced beans, it's definitely a level above and so delicious. I need to make a trip up to the mountains here in Bali to a little village called Desa Subuk (in case anyone is coming to Bali now that travel bans are lifted). There's a little "warung" (community store) beside the road with a coffee plantation out back. The lady who runs the place will make you a cup and and even call up to the grinder if you want to buy a kilo or two to take home. I don't know if it's a combination of the clean mountain water and the coffee freshly pan roasted on her stove and hand ground or my imagination but it never tastes quite so good as in the village. Damn, gotta get back up there soon.

      Perhaps I should have included that I'm fishing from a pier that's around 20 feet above the water. That presents a little different problem,,, when twitching the bait, I need it to stay in the water! But your reef rocket looks very interesting!
      By the way, I'm not trying to copy Gotcha, just trying to mimic the action of the underwater "walk-the-dog".
