Finally got a chance to swim this handmade bass glidebait. No full dedicated video on this one, but you can see the foiling and painting techniques on these videos here: https://youtu.be/kbE-cdA2y0I https://youtu.be/MqfcZCynIqc #baitmaking #bassbaits #bassfishinglures #bassglidebaits #basslures #bassswimbait #basswakebaits #fishinglures #hamdmadebaits #handmadefishinglures #handmadeglidebait #handmadewakebait #handmadeswimbait #lures #luremaking #makinglures #garagebaits #bigwakebaits #biglures #bigswimbaits #bigglidebaits #bigfishinglures #grouper #grouperglidebait #grouperlure #blackmarketswimbaits #luredesign #garagemade #lurepainting #glidebait

So this idea popped into my head for a folk art style swimbait. Not sure if I will make this one; it will definately be a difficult carve.

Haven't made a video of this wooden brown trout swimbait yet. I made this one to go after monster brown's in October. Looking like that will have to wait till next year.

So I've been kinda bummed that I haven't been able to make any lures while my shop is packed up. I got some inspiration from @meloshfishinglures and decided to at least sketch some lure ideas until we get moved. Who knows if or when I will get around to making one of these, but it sure is fun to think about. Thanks Melosh for your amazing work, you certainly have set a really high standard!
