The first thing I noticed about this reel is its weight kzfaq.infoUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I wouldn't say it was uncomfortable but it was a little heavier than other similarly sized reels. However, that didn't deter my enjoyment of how smooth this reel is. I spooled it with 20lb. Tuf-Line XP and it's perfect for what I use it for. I have it paired with an 8'6" Medium/Fast Okuma SST Salmon/Steelhead rod. The combination is perfect for casting and even drifting. I used the reel all day and didn't experience any arm or hand fatigue except when fighting a few fish! The bail is solid and feels strong when engaging by reeling and manually closing the bail by hand. The large rubber handle grip is very comfortable. It's got a powerful drag, silky smooth reeling, and feels very comfortable in the hands. I recommend it!

You should go snorkeling in the summer and get all your lost lures.

On a day when the entire world seems to have lost its collective mind, you have provided a few moments of escape and joy. Thank you.

I've been watching for awhile, not so much for the actual fishing side. the complete love this guy has for doing what he loves is so nice to see plus the lures look amazing. With all the turmoil in the world this guy is a reminder that people are pretty amazing

It’s beginning to smell a lot like One Days All throughout the shop Take a look at the bait again, add the lead and then Test the float and clear your throat and grin

We have 2 weeks off from school here in Poland (Eastern Europe) due to the coronavirus pandemic. At least I'll have a lot of time to watch some of your videos. Stay safe 👋

after a super crappy month sitting here watch Nate doing a one day for 30 minutes is a welcome break, thank you for the entertainment dude and i hope the family are doing great!

7:34 uses circle template's straight edge to make the straight line and a random air hose connection to make circle. Love it

Marling should do a one day live bait making video. I think it would be cool!

I just got home from work, sat on my butt. Picked up my tablet, unlocked it and proclaimed in anticipation.... "ONE DAAAAAAY!" And to my delight, the very first video suggestion as i opened youtube.... you and a one day!!!! Yaaaayyyy. And then your intro got me giggling like a child with glee and anticipation. I appreciate your weird. 😂😉

Who could give this guy a thumbs down? He’s an awesome craftsman and has what it needs to be on KZfaq. Better than any crap on TV

I love the descriptive step by step one days, you really show how your doing it. Hopefully one day I’ll attempt to do something like this. Idea: you should order a few lures and try to make copies then vs them off. Handmade Vs Commercially made.

Hey Marling! I just wanted you to know that you've really inspired my buddy and I, into making our own lures. We're both really into fishing and we always watch your vids. We recently had this thing that goes on in our highschool called "genius week" it's basically a week where us students get to learn about something we pick, so my friend and I decided to try and make some lures. We literally found some random wood in my friends garage (not even sure what kind it was) and made them out of that. We used our schools shop tools to do all the cutting, sanding, and whatnot. We didnt have a lead pot, so we put splitshot weights into the baits, and also used the extra tabs tackle boxes come with, as our lips. They didn't turn out like we imagined, but they weren't bad. In our part of Iowa, the water hasn't opened up yet, but were eagerly waiting to get out there and try them out. Were going to continue to make more baits because it was crazy fun. Hopefully we will improve. Lol. Anyways keep doin what your doin, because it's a blast watching your vids.

It is all the small things you show that makes me watch these videos. like those nicely done hook hangers done with the power drill. Never thought about this. So much nicer than my hand twisted ones. And you dont cut your fingers ... This I will definitely adopt. Thanks

that thing would crush it where I live. man I can't even describe how hyped I am for this season. we've had the warmest winter in decades up here in Massachusetts. already had 10 trips out in the canoe in 2020. I got 1 4lber, 4 2lbers and 1 just under 2. absolutely unheard of for me this time of year. We didn't have open water until late march last year.

I appreciate all the detail. I’ve made a few terrible lures over the years, but after watching your videos I believe I could make something that actually works and catches fish. Thank you

WOOHOO! It’s a Marling kinda day!!!

thank god, desperately needed a new video to watch and relax to tonight. stay safe out there folks

Sometimes I shut off notifications so I can binge watch every now and then. What I'd like to see and buy is a deep diving (15-20) Creek chub jerk bait, I don't give a hoot about price. I need that in my tackle box.

Yes!!! Been not so patiently waiting for a “One Day”

Hydrodynamicist here, I know exactly what you're trying to say about the flat sides and don't worry the majority of you lingo was correct (enough)!

you’re so positive & lively, that losing your work still gives you good thoughts & ideas for future builds. who are you really...Jesus Christ?! perhaps not, or you would’ve Walked Out to the snag to retrieve your bait. good on ya, Dude. please keep’em coming to us & we’ll keep watching

The more details the better 👍 I'd prefer to see every step, every time. And I'm working on watching all your videos for the 2nd time.

Tadpole jerkbait with the tail made of the silicone or whatever that hell substance is! Is that a possibility??? Would love to see one and more importantly use one!!

In my experience, curving that lip in the longitudinal axis (if that makes sense?) seems to help it get that good rapid wiggle

Man I love your videos! The dry humor and quality of craftsmanship make my day.

@Marlin Baits I did really like how descriptive you were in this video. Showing and explaining EVERYTHING. it was nice 👍

”Maybe you should question your own judgement" Marling baits 2020

"It needed fixed. Fix it." -Marling Baits, 2020

Hydrodynamic ....... Best One Day word so far !!! It needed fixed , so fix it !! GOLD !! Thin .... not shaming anyone's body ...................... just fell off my chair !!!!!!!!! Fantastic Bait !!

I think this is the best marling baits video. At least when it comes to famous Marling Bait quotes that come to my mind when carving my own baits. thanks man!

Yaaaay “one day!”

Missed the one days

So beautiful!!

Thanks a lot for your videos. Just finished my first glide bait and your work on here taught me basically everything I know. Appreciate it.

nobody: literally nobody: marlingbaits: “wundaye”

Have you ever done a mullet bait? One that floats with barely any of its back out of the water the way mullet do when they’re “grazing” on the surface?

You are so dang talented! I love watching you paint! It always amazes me that you can add some crazy colors, and everything always turns out to be a work of ART! So Artistic! You inspire me with each new bait!! I cant wait to try some of your tricks!! Thank you for your hard work, and Awesome personality!

This bait looks so happy before the lip is installed. The lip slot looks like a smile, that combined with the eyes make this the happiest bait ever. I re-watch your videos way too many times 🤣, just saying. Great channel pal. Looking out for a new video 🤞

“I said some fancy words and I don’t want them to go to waist” Marling baits- 2020 Why do I quote everything

NOTIFICATON SQUAD REPRESENT

Just found this channel the other day but I love watching this dude, I tie my own flys so its nice watching someone who uses their own tackle as well

Hahahaha... I absolutely love your thought process. Keep 'em coming!

0 dislikes, nice👍

"It's official! Snags like jointed suspending jerk baits!"

You are the reason i wake up in the morning and go to the garage for lurh makin!!

One day! Glad it is that time of year again.

Why do you rummage around for cylindrical junk when you have a ruler full of different sized circles that you used earlier in the video?

I'm glad your winter is on the way out. We still have 2 1/2 feet of snow on the ground here. Ice is probably still 4 feet thick on the lakes.

Bless you ow great and mighty bait maker

You remembered to plug the lead pot in on the first one day....if that doesn’t deserve a like, nothing does

So I get the Mantis is comeing but what about that complicated swimbait from a few months back? hahahaha

Got stationed in korea. Got alot of free time so I just ordered some stuff to try to make some baits. You're the inspiration! Thanks

FINALLY ANOTHER ONE DAY!!! Excellent video

Does anyone know where he had gotten the scale tape for his older baits?

Getting into making soft plastics.

Thank you for getting me through the hard times your videos take my mind of the bad things going on love you man keep it up❤️

Drilling out the front hole is definitely my preferred method as well.

Good to see you back a little more regularly

20 seconds into the video and I already know it's gonna be a good one When you said one day I just smiled 😁

No fancy words were wasted for this broadcast

YES!!!! First one day in awhile!!!! We might try a one day challenge with a Jenga block.

Awesome video Marling Baits !! Keep up the amazing work Marling Baits !! Thanks for the hard work and dedication you put into making these awesome videos for us Marling Baits !! Cheers William !!

I absolutely loved this video please make another like this thank you

A new video makes everyday a good day.

I love you and I'm so glad you are putting out more videos now!!! 😍

I appreciate the more descriptive videos. I usually learn something new from you when you do these. Loved it!

Good job remembering the lead pot lol. Love your vids mate, your a funny,clever fella. Keep em coming.

FREAKING ONE DAYS ARE BOOOOOOMB!!!!! MY DAY IS SO MUCH BETTER!

I got recommended this channel because I like fishing but I'm staying because these are some beautiful lures.

I’ve seen almost all your videos and this is my favorite bait of yours! It has some imperfections like the eyes but it fits your personality. Hope it becomes a new old faithful.

Love your videos I am waiting for spring to hit in st louis to try out my lures love the teaching you do helps a ton

I like when you explain what actions certain angles get you certain action. Like when you explained the reason to cut down more on the bottom and to give it a more erratic action

That was a great lure. I'm amazed at the difference the size if one split ring can make.

Stupid is as stupid does. :) Your videos are amazing. My daughter loves to watch them as well.

Ahhhhh my new favorite part of the week!! Great and funny content man. Keep it up and hope all is well

Can’t wait to see more one day builds👍Awesome vids as always

Yess!! Its been so long, cant wait to see more of these in the summer

Looks like my go to lure!

Loved this video man so excited to see these one days to come!

Absolutely love watching you make lures mate. So enjoyable and inspiring. Can’t wait for Praying Mantis part 2.

I really enjoy your videos especially the soft plastics 🤙🏻🤙🏻 keep up the work

New truck! Looks nice!!

Mr. Baits, I just can't watch enough of these videos haha I'm excited for oneday season! Hope baby Fin is doing well, I'm looking forward to the day he ends up in the shop with you

I feel better now, I really needed my 1 day bait fix 🎣🎣🎣🎣

Thank you for uploading so often. My family is having to self-quarantine so I can't do a whole lot but your videos really help.

man id cry loosing that lure it looked like a total pike killer, thanks for all your vids, your keepin me sane during lockdown greetings from northern ireland

I don’t make Baits but some late night marlin baits got me hooked since the first video I seen

poppers our my favorite bait never let me down on a slow fishing day

Awesome bait!

This is a great video, cheers! Back to why I followed you in the first place!

I started making baits mon day bc of your vids . Love the vids

Love it!

please keep doing more in depth lure making ! im trying to learn every step you take to build a lure !! my first one was a flop but im in the works on the second right now :) love your vids man

That is really a nice looking bait

Looked great in the end but when your first drilled the eyeholes my first thought was “that’s a happy looking 747” 😂

Well I guess I'm going to have to come up there and try and scuba dive for some of your amazing lures cause I can't make them anywhere close as good as you can. You inspired me to try to make lures because I love fishing and woodworking and you make me realize that I could do both. Just not a well as you do.
