We've made some DIY fishing lures on this channel but never any soft baits. I figured it was time that changed. Here we made several different types of swimbaits and flukes - all made completely from scratch. I demonstrate how to make a clay mold, cast it in silicone and finally pour the soft plastic fishing lures. In the end we take them out and try them out on some fish and they did not disappoint!
