- Today I go over how we make our soft plastic tubes. I really enjoy fishing with tubes but not so much the manufacturing process. Cutting the tails can be quite the pain but very rewarding when you get them out on the water!! The tube cutter we used will be linked below!! Thanks for Watching

Super video thanks keep it coming
Thanks for watching 🤙
Great info!
Thank you 🤙
Great video👍 tubes are so under appreciated, I have 3 Angling AI tube molds, highly recommend to anyone looking for a tube mold.
I agree!! Tubes get used a decent amount up north for smallies but they are just as effective for largies. I use them a decent amount
Hey buddy. I recommend a pneumatic tube cutter. It will make shooting tubes fun again. Some pneumatic tube cutters cut 2 at a time. They are fairly cheap and are around under $300.
I’ll eventually get one, I’m just pretty limited on space at the moment and don’t make them enough to justify it right now. They are fantastic though
Those goby tubes look great. Haven't gone down the tube making worm hole. this was an excellent demo and thorough explanation
It’s a love hate relationship with tubes lol. I always dread making them and cutting tails but then using them makes me appreciate having the ability to make my own. I feel like big brands are lacking in their tube color selections
Hard to beat a GP tube, bro. The goby looks great. Appreciate the solid content.
I’ve caught a lot of fish on green pumpkin tubes. So simple and effective lol
GP with gold and purple is my go to color. I have the same mold and same aluminum cutter. I mounted it to an aluminum can crusher and put a piece of thin 1/8" hard rubber under it that the blade can cut into slightly. Still never cuts them all and have to go one by one to make them decent. For my use tho.
Cutting tails is such a pain sometimes. The can crusher is a great idea tho. I just smack mine pretty hard with a mallet and it cuts completely through probly 75% of the time
Really like the goby color, they turned out great !! Thanks for sharing !
Thanks Max!! That goby color is going to be my clear water go-to
Really liking your videos. Not sure how I haven't come across them til now but Subbed 👍
Got a couple tips from this one I'll be trying today. Thanks a lot and keep it up. I like both colors but lean towards the goby.
I really appreciate the support. I’m still one of the smaller channels so I’m sure CZcams doesn’t recommend it very much yet lol
I love re-runs!
Thanks man!! I’ll be uploading more after I get back from vacation
I don’t even fish or make bait lol but this video was interesting
Thanks Joe I really appreciate it!! I have a lot of close family and friends that are the same way. They don’t fish but really enjoy the videos
The goby color is 🔥!!!!!! Very nice!
Thank you!!
And I LOVE these hollow soft tubes, they make wonderful BIG catfish bait (holders)....Myself, I pinch a small hole towards head of bait as a vent hole and then with the aide of an emptied caulking tube I inject stink bait into the tubebait until it begins to exit the vent hole...this makes a method that holds the stinkbait in fast water while spreading the scent out to attract the fish....if used in calmer waters the smell may last for an hour or more before needing to be loaded again but I find that the fish quickly find this and bite in ON>>>>>>>
That’s awesome. I’ve never actually heard of using them for that before. I might have to try that out next time I go catfishing
Superb presentation! Learned a lot. Love the Goby colors. Will have to try it. Thank you!
Thank you and thanks for watching!! We will have a lot of new videos after the holidays
Kind of looks like a pain to make. Been wanting to start making tubes just no sure yet. Thanks for sharing your process.
It is a pain if your trying to make large quantities but for personal use it’s not terrible. They do make molds with splines on the rod so that it makes the skirt for you but they can get pretty pricey
@@N2TW_customlures I've been looking but, can't seem to find them. would like to have 5 bait cav. Thanks
The only ones I’ve seen with splines have been single cavity from do-it. I think the only multi cavities that I’ve seen have been custom and very pricey
Another great video buddy! They looked awesome. Great job! Keep doing what you do! #N2TW_customlures rocks!
Thanks David!! I really appreciate the continued support 👊
Awesome video ++
Thank you 🙏
This color is awesome. Cool tutorial.
Thanks Cuda!! Appreciate it 🤝
The tubes look good!!! 👌What is your salt of choice?
The salt I use in the plastisol is the fine salt from Baitplastics. As far as the salt for packaging, any salt will work. I’ve even used table salt before but now I just use the fine salt for everything.

I know in a year late but what brand of Cooper flake is that? It's a bit darker than i use, so if like to get a bit to compare.
@@dhbikerczar it’s from Baitplastics. I use a lot of their flake and really like it 🤙 thanks for watching!

Hi
I need to know the name of this material, is it a regular rubber selicone?
Or something different?
It is plastisol made by a company called Baitplastics I’ll leave a link for it below so you can check it out.

Where did you get your tube mold at where I can do two colors at one time
The mold is from lurecraft and for injector two colors you will need a dual injector. I’ll leave the ones I use linked below

@@N2TW_customlures thank you
@@brickeyj123 no problem 🤙
Can you use any salt or does it need to be specific? Something like table salt?
You can use pretty much any salt but it is recommended to use a fine salt. Some people will even use popcorn salt which is more like a powder
@N2TW_customlures thanks a lot ill try it tonight
@@mikelabelle420 no problem 🤙
