Handmade fishing lures have a long and rich history. My goal is to continue that tradition of craftsmanship by combining the old and new. Join me as we transform an ordinary block of wood into a beautiful work of functional art. We might even catch a few fish along the way!

Hello everyone! I know I've been gone a while, but I wanted to assure you that I have been busy making some major improvements. I have enclosed and conditioned my workshop so that I can work in all weather and through all seasons. I have also put in a testing pool so we will be able to get a much better look at underwater lure swimming action. Tomorrow I will upload a new video that I was able to produce through all of the construction. I am excited to get back to making content and have lots of great ideas coming soon!

I got the opportunity to be on the MADE TO CAST podcast with fellow lure maker Brent Hashimoto of @hashimotoconcepts. We talked about lure making and a lot of other interesting things. I highly recommend you check it out, and while your listening you can also check out his profiles. He does a lot of really excellent work and I really enjoyed talking with him.

I was REALLY hoping to get this video uploaded for this weekend, but I just couldn't quite get it across the finish line. So I'm going to use this next week to make it even better! I hope you will tune in to watch it next Saturday, I'm really excited about this one!

I'm really liking this grouper glidebait idea. So I pushed my sketch a little further with some color.

I got a chance to do some more sketching and came up with this grouper glidebait. I may get a chance to start carving it this weekend. Ready to get this new year started! I have lots of ideas for lure building videos!

So I really wanted to paint one of these new 4" walk-the-dog lures. I'm going to finish my next video on resin casting soon, so be on the lookout for that. Thanks to everyone who has watched the first part on making silicone molds; it has been doing really well!

When I started my channel, I never would have dreamed it would get this big! My sincerest thanks to everyone who has supported the channel. Without you, this wouldn't exist.

Finally got a chance to go fishing! Got a couple on some of my older lures. It's always a great feeling to catch fish on a lure you made!

Haven't made a video of this wooden brown trout swimbait yet. Let me know if you think I should; perhaps a foiled version? I made this one to go after monster brown's in October. Looking like that will have to wait till next year.
