Have you ever considered carving a lure from a block of super glue and baking soda?

Truly these types of lures have such popularity and good reputation because of the meticulous and elaborate carvings and the effort obviously displayed in the piece.

You should turn a chess set into various types of lures. For example a pawn crankbait, a topwater bishop, a queen jerkbait, and a king buzzbait. Something like that. It sounds awesome. Great video as always 👍

There was an article I recall from an old Popular Science magazine from the 60s that showed a fisherman using all manner of objects to catch Bass, a piece of carrot was one winner and a wrist watch (without the straps) was one of the most successful! The message then, as it probably is now, is that when the fish are feeding, it doesn't really matter what you throw to them. Everyone also knows that fishing lures are designed to catch the fisherman first, and the fish second.

Not sure I could do 16 hours with a block of wood. That’s some true dedication. And after the instagram post I thought I was going to see the making of your neighbors lure. Total surprise!!! Yet again another awesome video! Can wait for the next one!!!

You should do a wood block, soft bait pour. Maybe find a good piece of wood or stick and make a mold. Maybe they would like soft squishy blocks of wood.

3:37 You should try painting it up, giving it scales and eyes and the like but leave it a block. would be cool to know if a fish colored rectangle would catch.

What is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT is that the block is square and parallel. As you know, bass can tell when wood is out of plane and they simply won't bite it. Precision plane and parallel is VITAL to getting consistent strikes from bass.

Oooh boyy! The block of wood was the video that brought me into your channel, later on into lure making and then into having my own lure making channel! My life has changed completely since the first time I watched that video! Thank you so much for your great work and the passion you give everyday to all of us! ❤ Sorry for my English, I come from pasta land!

Dude, I knew you were a master class bait maker but holy cow, this is a work of art. I thought the Gnarly gill was one of the best but this? This is incredible. I don’t know if you plan on selling it but I’ll put up whatever it takes to own that amazing lure.

Sunday One Day bigger and better with special guest block of wood! thanks for the content.

not gonna lie, the original block of wood lure was one of my favorite videos, im ecstatic that youve created another masterpiece

Lure Idea: Overly complicated wooden block -magnetic weight transfer -rattle with wooden plugs -through wire -everythings else you can squeeze in

i cannot overstate how much ive been looking forward to block of wood 2

The first one was the first video I watched from your channel and the inspiration for me to make homemade lures 😊

Just came back from a one week fishing trip, and here are two things I would like to say: 1. I think you should make a spoon lure. That would be pretty cool 2. A thing that I was taught while fishing (that you might already know) is that whenever you have a fish you keep your Rod tip up and that you lift the fish out of the water by grabbing the line, not just with your pole. Just thought that might be helpful! Also it’s my 13th birthday in two weeks and my parents are getting me one of your merch hoodies. :D Thanks for being such an awesome Fisherman and KZfaqr (two of my favorite things)

My grandfather made a jointed cylinder of wood with a top nose extending over the line tie making a nice chug for a smaller profile. Advanced wooden baits should definitely be a series

I wish I could make a block of wood as good as you do. Just the amount of skill required to make such a beautiful lure is astounding!

Microdosing, Margarita's & Marling Baits...Three M's of a nice Sunday. BLOOP! :P

This needs to be put in a museum. Genuinely. Like there is an unreal amount of detail. The way the gradient changes as you twist the lure, the grain, everything

I’m rooting for the 2x4 next. Just make it through wired with internal swivels to attach hardware to. Like how the make saltwater striper lures.

Thank you for answering a long overdue question.

You really are the master baiter!

I love the way he says “be free” and chucking that first bass in

Love the crazy off the wall louvers.

Square faced chug popper..... gave us some awesome ideas ! Thanks 😊 Awesome vid

The very first video I ever watched of yours was your original wood block video. Love your stuff man, you're a great dude!

the effort and detail in this lure are amazing

Always happy to see a fresh post

Favorite transition ever, "we're at the ditch"!

These two block builds are by far my favorite :D

I’m taking credit for this video hehehehe. Another block of wood….we have come full circle and your bait making has entered epicfishal status!!! You rock…I dedicate my life to your service 🤣🤣

Sunday is my favorite day of the week.....

You really don’t know how happy this makes me. The block of wood is what got my Marling Baits addiction started

That was a good try on the wood block lure, Marling.

Kevin has a beautiful pond. Super jelly.

Dang! That lure you made for your neighbor is awesome! I hadn't heard of your channel before now, glad it popped up on my YT.

Next we need a block of wood painted like a fish, also love the video!

« What a block », thanks marling love ya

Your an amazing artist, love to see what you come up with on the next bait.

Such creativity going into this bait

You are like the bob ross of fishing! Keep up the job! :D

Hope u do well this season...ur the best goalkeeper I've ever seen..#DeGea#ManUtd

Those lures looks pretty awesome! Nice work.

That second lure is beautiful!!

This… this is what I’ve been waiting for❤️ thank you

Marling, I haven’t seen one of your videos in a while. You look much different, for the better. You look healthy and mentally in a better place which is amazing! Great video

Been waiting all morning for this.

I can just tell this guy is an Awesome dad.

After watching your first block of wood vid, i made my own block lure about the size of this one and it slayed the saltwater GTs. I am still amazed as to how the pop on it could be so good.

Nice job man love you videos, keep it up

I really like your videos and you inspired me to make my own baits

The living legend returns

Now THIS is the content I subscribed for!

Ah the long awaited sequel! Nice carving bro

I respect the effort you put in! Insane

Such a simple video idea but it just works lol love it

I’ve been waiting for this sequel

Kevin's pond has got it goin on. 🎣

Nothing like a good Sunday morning wood video.

Pretty crazy the amount of time, work, and detail you put into this lure! Truly a masterpiece

So simple yet so majestically b e a utiful

The wood grain almost looks real. 👌 thanks for sharing 👍.

Some ideas for baits just off the top of my head: Lego lure. Fidget spinner lure. Something with a spring that bounces on the bottom. Slinkey Bait. Marbles in a nut sack. Lipless crankbait with a chatterbait blade.

I am sure most anglers would have read /heard of the book "SURE YOU CAN FISH! Tackle Shortages Need Not Stop You" its about making lured from random stuff like toothbrush handles and mop sticks.

I love this! Reminds me of seeing the Budweiser can lures as a kid and thinking..."nooooo way this catches fish"

Would love another Q&A session

Your original block of wood video is what got me carving out my own baits lol and I’m fairly proud of how successful I’ve been too

The sequel we never knew we needed! 🤣

Had fun catching Peacock Bass in Mexico with wood planks trailing an 18" leader with a 1/0 treble. Crazy what fish'll bite.

THE RETURN!!!!

Wood knowledge superb

I wanna see a Fork lure! Everyone knows about spoons and how well they work...but what about a fork?? I think you're the guy that needs to get to the bottom of that. Keep on keeping on fella! Absolutely love your content! Your videos and sense of humor really helped in a dark time. ✌️❤️😁

Would be fun to see an other rendition of this with a corkscrew design. 🎣

Fishing the morning wood. LOL get it morning wood

Awesome video Nate. Can’t wait to purchase a lure of yours. You should make a spoon. Nail a pike with it.

I'm not sure if you've done this yet, but have you tried a lowpoly fishing lure? Like clearly these fish will go for anything, but how little polygons will achieve a successful lure? Also, side thought: PAINT THE BLOCK TO LOOK LIKE FISH! I'll bet that it increases the catch rate by at least ~30%!

This is perfection.

You sure did a good job, turning that block of wood, into a block of wood. Nice video.

It would be really cool if you could make a bat lure for night fishing kinda like the one savage gear makes

A plumbob (think sims) would be cool to see fished with.

Now we want the bigger wood ball lure. Great!

For the not lure lures like the blocks. Trying a - disk of wood - pyramid of wood - hexagon of wood

This is a modern art moment right here

Finally the sequel!

Love the olive green Savage Gear rods, amazing value. Also, make a through wire version and send it to someone who striper fishes un the salt or something!

Casts like a dream

Hello, fly fishing guy here, you should try fly tying, I do it and it’s great!!! Please do it sometime. See u in the next videos comments!

I’m a simple man. I see a new Marling video, I watch and smash the like button

I love your videos 😂

5:40 there actually are lures that look like blocks of wood for tuna, its called a cedar plug, its weird but it is a highly effective lire

That piranha looks sick now, it has to catch fish👍🏼👊🏼🦖🍺

Video Idea: start with the block of wood and every time you catch a fish, you carve the lure down until you end up with a finished lure.

Nice block!

I was just scrolling through my fyp page and found this thought it was weird and I read the title again and I relished he has done this and it worked so I had to watch this

Love the videos dude keep up the good work also an idea for a lure is an Alabama rig with wood blocks

The first lures I ever made as a child were literally just blocks of wood with parallel 45 degree head and tail. Then i would drill a hole big enough to thread a steel leader through and attached a huge treble. I used them to catch pike. I usually painted them bright colors.

Hard fish science. I love it

Well I just got back from the adirondack mountains in upstate NY and finally caught my personal best! I always knew this one specific part of the creek had some monsters and I finally got one - 24 inch 7lb 3oz largemouth

I used to have an aversion to super glue on my fingers, if I got it on my fingers I would peal it off, often to the detriment of my skin. Seeing you ignore it has made my life better. Now I embrace the glue. You sir are a life changer!
