I'd hate to spoil that lovely finish, have to use it as a trophy display.
Awesome build Mikko! Thanks for sharing your work as usual. Came out amazing brother! I'm glad to hear that you are keeping busy. I look forward to seeing your next project bud.
What beautiful lures you make love this channel keep up the good work ❤
Wow that's like a real flatfish. Very cool and thanks for the video.
I've been following along over the last few weeks on your Instagram posts. I'm excited to see the final result.
Very beautiful lure
A piece of Art
Absolutely gorgeous bait 😮
Beautiful.
I'd have sliced my hand dozens of times crafting those lures.
Your carving skills never cease to amaze me. Mine never look that good, but then if I'd invest in something better than free Pine scraps, I might have a little better results.
It sure is difficult to show the true action in such a small space, however, they probably won't let you test them at the Hotel's indoor pool! LOL
I made a couple replica Daily Double lures that had cups like yours. They seemed to work pretty well.
Probably my favorite lipless crankbait is a Pico Perch, also called a Bayou Boogie. I've made a few of them and they have a lot of vibration.
Another great lure build! Thanks Mikko
i have to check out that lure, but yeah its not easy to show the true action of a lure in such a restricted space.
amazing video, well put together. Beautiful bait! We need a full length video of just the carving and some rock music in the background ha ha!
that would probably be a 10h video lol
The lipless crankbait is a fairly simple lure to make. It is well known that they are weighted heavy to be a fast sinker and the ballast is low and towards the head so it will shimmy nose-down.
You've taken a common lure and elevated it to an uncommon level of intricate detail and beauty. I like the multiple tow-points and from what I could make from the bathtub test, I favor the point farthest back.
Although I cannot afford the lures you market, I hope you completely sell out so that you'll be motivated to continue making these fine lures and videos. Great job Mikko!
one thing i failed to illustrate in the video was that this lure actually floats. and the action comes from it sinking when it dives
@@SolarfallBaits That's something I would not have expected. I'm guessing that the way you carved out the top of the head helps achieve the dive.
Senior's crankbait is really beautiful
I love your channel and just this week my kids were admirinf one of your lures that we've got in a shadow box. I cant bring myself to fish it and lose it.
Oh great, which lure is that?
This video made my day!
Them scales lookin mint my man
Awesome bait!!!!
Автор ролика молодец . !!! Столько рыбаков на денежки поймал , сколько они рыбы не поймают . Лайк от меня за шедевр , сделанный правильными руками .
This was so cool! This color scheme would 100% fool the bass in trout lakes. Thanks for showing the whole process. What spray gun would you recommend for novice painter? Never sprayed anything this small but I want to!
you can never go wrong with iwata but i might be little bit bias. that being said there is a lot of great options out there from other legacy companies like harden& steenbech or badger.
Line through lipless would be great.
Nice work 👌
Thanks
Amazing job, do you seal the Paint with any product before de resin ? Thanks you and keep inspire lure makers.
I personally do not use any sealers before i put the last layer
kind of reminds me of a Shad Rap - but larger and a little more deluxe
Hallo from Spain. Amazing works. I want to ask you for somethig… Can you show us how you make the precisión sabding tools you use for the details, fins, and scales? Thanks for show us your work.
They are just sticks that have sand paper glued on them. Nothing super special
Hienoa Mikko, tuo hopealuomu redside dace toimisi varmasti meidän vesissä useammalle kalalajille. Upea video. Oletko tehnyt meritaimen vieheitä tänä syksynä? Huomenna Inkoon saaristoon ja testaamaan omia luomupuikkoja.
Awsome lure! As always 🔥 You are the biggest inspiration i my own lure making. I aspire to get to your level of patience and attention to detail one day 😂😅
The only complaint I have is that you should play more Beherit as background music 🤘
Speaking of beherit i heard they are doing some live shows again. One in Japan and one in Finland.
@@SolarfallBaits oh! Cool :)
Amazing
wow, beautiful
Do you use water based paint then epoxy clear to finish it off? Would you recommend a paintbrush? I rattlecan paint my lures and then clear. Nice build!
Yes and yes. I personally like iwata airbrushes but there are other brands that will get the job done too
@@SolarfallBaits Thanks for answering, then I will buy a airbrush and test. I have a plan on 3d print stencils so I paint my lures in stages then clear coat. Then they should become reproducible and nicer looking 😂. But the ice needs to disappear first. Over 80 cm of ice still. I have 3d printed 5 designes but doesn't know if any work 😂. Have a nice day! And thanks once again!
Sausage fingers, developed from a life time of carving lures out of dense maple.
A question: Do you use a mold release on your wooden project? Also after your mold is done, do you use a mold release in the mold?
I use vaseline when i make the mold. When the mold is done i dust the casting surfaces with baby powder.
Thank you ever so much!@@SolarfallBaits
On kyllä todella upeita.👍🏻
Just this summer I drilled through a piece of wood and into my hand. 3/8 inch hole.
Outch sounds not so fun
With this "rod" u looks like Harry... XD greats for u ;]
👍👍👍👍👍
What is your favorite wood for working fishing lure
It really depends what im making
People need to get there eyes check 🙄😒. the lure clearly has a wiggle to it. Maybe if you got that bait tank marlin has it'll
make some people happy 😂. keep doing you Solar! 🤟🏾
Yeah maybe, well you unfortunately cant make everyone happy
42:42 Use Archimede's law.
Just put the mold on the scale, press tare and then pour in the water.
100g water = 1dl (0,1 liters) = 100cm³
if i was smart i would have used that archimedian method. I'm more used to redneck backyard science
what kind of wood do you carve in?
I like to use maple like in this video
I make lipless out of balsa. Don’t know why since the buoyancy isn’t really helpful… But guys don’t buy hardwoods the way they do balsa baits. I do make some for myself out of a bitch plywood. You are probably going to knock the finish off the nose no matter what you use since there’s no lip to take any of the impact of hitting objects or just the bottom. Sandstone is brutal on lipless baits. Every wood has to be extra thoroughly sealed because of that and some take sealer better than others. I don’t know if that’s why he chose Maple, but it is a really good choice for lipless lures imo. Lipless require a lot of weight strategically positioned to get a good action no matter what wood really. This cat is a fabulous lure builder. I am sure he knows he could get an even more aggressive wiggle with a couple minor adjustments too.
Siisti vaappu. Ootko aatellut suomalaisten vaappujen valmistamista videolla. Porukkaa vois kiinnostaa, jos valmistaisit jotain esim: Jan- tai poppeli-vaapun tyylistä. Omia pohdintoja vain, mutta voisi toimia :D
Terveisiä Suomesta!
Juu ei huono idis pistetään korvan taakse

How about making a flathead catfish crank bait lure.. especially if you're wanting a flat top lure
i think marling baits already made one. but maybe one day i'll do a catfish inspired lure too
@@SolarfallBaits I know I mentioned it to him, but I haven't even seen him do any catfish as of yet
@@vharrald i think you must have just missed this one ua-cam.com/video/169uFTeyylk/v-deo.htmlsi=Eg7Ma2PGk_KfGnSR
Saw the video and thought: "Hmmm, I like what thid guy does and his videos ore a pleasure to watch. But 56 minutes??!? Maybe ill just skip through and check some of thr highlights..."
Now it's 56 minutes later and I didn't skip a second. Such captivating stuff, I hope i can focus enough and get my shit together enough to get into lure making again, winter is coming after all and ice fishing is 💩
Hey a question, how much does something like this weigh? You kinda skipped the casting process so im a bit unclear, you said something about micro balloons or something? Is there a way to make the resin heavier, like adding metal powder or something?
Great video as always 🤌👌
the weight i settled for my lure is 52g. i've added the ballast weight to the internal wire harness and thats kind of a trade secret that i didn't want to share in this video.
How would a lure like this do for fishing stripe bass?
Your guess is as good as mine
Salt water hooks? Trying to figure this out to buy some and use for beach fishing.
@@angeldejesus2797 i dont use any salt water hooks on my lures as most of my customers fish in fresh water, other wise i dont see why you could not use them in salt water.
An interesting lure design. I wonder how it would work as a jigging lure? Beautiful finish, as always.
I'm disappointed that you chose to omit the pouring of the actual lure. That is the critical step. That leaves me wondering how the hook hanger and line tie is inserted into the mold? Also, if you added any weight to the lure? Maybe you did a through wire harness but the viewer has no way of knowing.
Thanks for checking out the video. The lure might work as a jigging lure if you weigh it differently and weigh it in a way that it sinks, the ones i made floats. The hook eyes and line ties are a thru wire construction.
@SolarBaits Thanks for your reply and information. I guess I am confused as to how the wire harness is placed in the mold prior to closing the mold and pouring the plastic? Do you have to make a channel in the mold in order to fit the wire harness?
@@thelonesomefisherman7425 the wire harness is placed on those hook eye and line tie slots before casting the lure. I didnt want to share that cos its king of a trade secret
@SolarBaits OK, that I can understand. Sorry, I didn't mean for you to give away trade secrets. I didn't know
@@thelonesomefisherman7425 no worries mate i could have probably mention about that in the video
Hi
looks very beautiful, but the play of the lure isnt really active, it doesnt really do much in any of the three positions, I wouldnt buy it, again thats just my opinion, no negativity here. Did you catch fish with it?
Hey thats totally cool, i guess this lure is not for everyone. I caught about 6 pikes on a unpainted prototype before we got ice.
@@SolarfallBaits nice, do u have any specific lures for trout or salmon?
@@Jakems7 yeah the rocky mountain minnow that i sell is made for trout
I live in the Netherlands and thinknit would be great for pike, there is a lot of pressured waters here and this would slay, no doubt, it is different and i think it would pull those big ladies in,
Keine Bleigewichte ?
Too expensive for me to throw, but incredibly beautiful to display. Jealous here.
You should down size your lure and be around the size of 65 to 95 mm length max, because your not catching sharks with such big lures of course, and with my experience the more smaller the lure the more action and attraction towards river and lake fishes, just my opinion. No hard feelings.
i actually did start with a smaller maybe 9cm lure but decided to make it slightly bigger. these are 14cm. I think thats a pretty normal size for a pike lure in particular. but maybe downsizing to a smaller version in the future might not be a bad idea. thanks for checking out the video ;)
Bigger the bait the bigger the fish those look amazing
The dude in the first msg, clearly you really don't know anything about fishing because if you watch the professional Bass anglers they always tell you the bigger the lure the bigger the fish you catch. And I always use big glide Baites and I always catch big fish
How is this "reinventing"??? I noticed you always think you are the first to do something. Whuch is never the case when I research it.
Its not really reinventing , hence the air quotes.
@@SolarfallBaits Wouldn't you make sure it worked first before you make a mold and all of that? This lure clearly bogs down and has no action. I hope you are selling them just as decorations.
@@iwasframed1370 I personally think the lure has a very nice wiggle to it. I wouldn’t sell them if i didn’t think so
@@SolarfallBaitsCome on guy. Just because you spend a lot of time on something doesn't mean it works. You said you spent over a month working on this. Don't get me wrong, the looks of the lures are incredible but that has nothing to do with the action. And $75 for a lure that has no action and just wants to bog down is ridiculous. Hopefully people will see this before they purchase. You will literally be ripping people off with these lures. Come on guy, I know you are better than this.
@@SolarfallBaits That's like me taking a dump and everyone is telling me how bad it stinks but I say "personally I think it has a nice smell to it."
Stop it… not many people can do lipless baits. I kind of want to keep my little monopoly going on that. Lol
👍👍👍👍👍
Keine Bleigewichte ?
There is some
