  1. Nice striper pattern. I’ve had the same issue with window screen pulling up paint like that. I think what causes it is paint not being total dry or being to thick before pulling the window screen on tight.

  2. A trick for being able to melt lead into your baits without using a lead pot is to use a mini blowtorch to melt it. I use this method all the time and it works really well.

  3. I just found your channel, and this was my first Nolan video. First, you are WAY too hard on yourself! Were there some cosmetic issues with this lipless swimbait? Yes, but they were minor, and you figured out how to make most of them less obtrusive. Second, THIS LURE SWIMS BEAUTFULLY! It's stable and has a great wiggle. If you think it's useless, send it to me, and I'll catch striped bass and bluefish until they eventually destroy it!

  4. Does that bait float? Nice job really, I would have stopped before the black, but even that looks pretty good. No idea how old you are, but you're doing very well on the building and the video editing, keep up the good work and keep pushing your boundries!

  5. Awesome build and swim! Did you see Jeremy's Wooden Lures has been smashing his split shots on the anvil to make them into DISC shapes before dropping them in? He can fit more weight in a smaller space by doing that and keeps the center of gravity as low as possible. It's brilliant really. I wouldn't have messed with the paint after the little issue. The fish don't care, only the fishermen.
