- Thank you for watching my video !!! I super appreciate all the views, subs, comments, likes and shares.
This channel is mostly about making all sorts of fishing tackle; Jigs, Chatterbaits, Spinnerbaits, Plastic Baits, Airbrushing Crankbaits,....etc.
Besides bait making videos, I also make fishing videos, underwater videos, videos of the seminars I do, interviews and product reviews. Every now and then I will post a non-fishing related video like wine making videos
I’ve been making my own tackle for a long time now and I am always willing to share the knowledge. If you have any questions or just want to say hello, send me an email.... ThatGuySkimpy@Gmail.com

Great tip! Seems way easier than bending a hook eye.
Yeah def is easier
Definitely trying this, too easy to break the eye.
Awesome detail on the paint job. Definitely want to see some videos on your airbrush setup.
Yeah i will have to make a short video showing the set up !
Another super, new way to make baits! A+ paint job on that bait!
thanks for watching. appreciate the support !
I’ve been making my own baits for a little while now. But you have taught me so much thank you for all the tips and secrets. I will always support your CZcams channel.
Man that means alot. Appreciate the support brotha !!!!! Sorry I haven't been making videos lately just have had a lot going on.
@@ThatGuySkimpy I understand bro people need to take breaks from CZcams sometime but trust me looking forward to the next video enjoy your holiday brother.
Hey man been awhile.....john here from VA. Man awesome video...i got so tired of breaking hooks trying to open the eyes. I took ur awesome idea and switched it a tab... ive had many failures using the underspin wire form, so i used the spoon wire form HS 34 from do-it. I cut it in half and make a small bend in the cut end and using bending pliers make a loop and that loop connects to the hook eye.....super secure ...and crazy action .i prefer chatter blades with the bubbler holes. I believe keeps bait deeper.... any way thought u might like this idea ....Thank you for getting my brain box working with this awesome new way of making this bait
Awesome man ill have to try it out. Appreciate you watching!!!!
What issues did you have with the wire form? Seems like it should work pretty well, I’m debating on this set up or the Trokar swim jig mold with o ring to attach chatter blade
Good stuff Skimpy, I use this with method with the poison swing tail mold as well. No need to worry about the weed guard teflon pin.
Yes sir. I usually use my swingtail mold but my buddy is borrowing my mold. I needed some chatterbaits for a tournament so just used the regular poisontail and used the teflon pin so not weedless. Both molds work great. Makes such an awesome chatterbait
@@ThatGuySkimpy I agree with ya there for sure.
The swing tail does not have a bait keeper does it? Did you modify it for a wire keeper?
Awesome vid on a great technique! Thank you for showing this. We know you are busy! Love the paint job too!
Thanks for watching brother !
Bro not going to lie your paint jobs and skirt combos are pure 🔥🔥
Thanks brother !!!! Appreciate the support
@@ThatGuySkimpy yessir!!
I like this updated version of your Bladed Jig... We are all good down here in Mississippi, Great vids as always.
Thanks for the support brother !
Very cool! Thanks for sharing that. I'm just considering getting some Do-It molds to make my own. You do great work there.
Thanks for watching!!!! You should totally get some. Its a great hobby and you get to make your own custom baits!!!!!!
Thanks for the videos with exact instructions.
Thanks for watching !!!
That paint job is awesome bro. Good job.
Thanks brother LOB
Great update but I still like your other example better I have had no problems opening and closing the hook eye but it is great to have other options 👍🏽 keep them coming Skimpy 🎣
Yeah the other way is cool too but this was is easier
Definitely some exquisite looking chatterbaits brother!!! Thanks for the information. Congratulations on 2nd in the tourney!
Thanks brother !!!!!!
That Guy Skimpy no problem brother. Your welcome.
Hell yeah brotha, great to see you back in front if the camera considering whats going on out in the world. STAY SAFE BRO!!!!!!

Thank you !!! And thats for watching. Appreciate your support!
Great video. I like that style of a bladed jig.
🤜🏽🤛🏽
lol I like it man nice paint job thanks for the vid
Thanks !!!!
Nice man, I need to get on this!
🤜🏽🤛🏽
You rather use the wire form or split ring to attach the blade?
Honestly like both ways. With the splitting It has a more "erratic" action. Directly to the hook i feel its a tight wobble. Both are great
split ring works great and will catch fish, but it does have some issues, one being the blade is much more floppy and I have noticed it will get stuck in weeds more and sometimes take a bit more effort to get them to start vibrating. I used a split ring one this weekend and caught most of my fish with it :-)
What size wire form are you using. I tried the WEY 525.and the end that goes on mold is alot bigger than the eye slot on mold.
That's the size I'm using. Maybe mine is "worn" in ???? My buddy has the same mold and his is new and it works for him. Weird ?
Now thats whats up. Love it man
Thanks for watching !!!!
@@ThatGuySkimpy always man!!
Good to see you back in the shop. Can you do a video on how you powder coat the heads. Pretty neat detail there.
Yes sir it's in the making !!!!!! I just starting airbrushing so I want to do a few airbrushing videos
Great video great tips
Thanks for watching
Nice paint job! Stay safe!
Thanks brother.
Nice looking jig. 👍👍
Thanks brother !!!
Nice work thanks for the info!
Thanks for watching!!+
Hey skimpy I was wondering if you could use the swing head mold for this and making it not be a swing head? The mold comes with all the weight options in one mold and you wouldn’t have to take the time to clog the weed guard hole? I was just wondering if you could make the swing head take a hook instead of that wire form
Yes you can. And cool part about it is it will be weedless!!!
Thanks man! And the fact you messaged back you will forever have sub from me!
@@austynsailings9723 dude anytime. Hit my email anytime and we can chat. Thatguyskimpy@gmail.com
Where do you get that Teflon rod for the mold?
Do It molds website
Does mold need drilled out some so wire form will fit.
No. Fits in !
Great job on the video
Thanks bro
I've bought everything you suggested on your video. Where did you get the teflon weed guard or did you make it yourself?
store.do-itmolds.com/Heat-Resistant-Non-stick-Base-Hole-Pin-25-pkg_p_1236.html
Greatness!
Thanks bro
Where do you get the chatterbait blades from?
Ebay and this overseas site called Aliexpress
@@ThatGuySkimpy Thanks
Nice work bud
Thanks brother
Nice! What catalog is that you’re using?
Thanks for watching. Go to www.doitmolds.com and you can either request a catalog or you can download it !!!!
@@ThatGuySkimpy thank you!
Yo Skimp how do you bend the blades? I have a tough time keeping it symmetrical and straight.
I buy them like that !
That Guy Skimpy Thanks for the response man I been sending myself nuts with a blowtorch and a vise trying to get them straight like yours.
Another great video. After seeing your original one on how to make a chatterbait I got a mold and poured some. I absolutely love the poison tail and they swim awesome. I definitely want to try this tweak as I had some problems breaking the eyes trying to open them. Have you ever airbrushed these with paint?
I painted a few spinner baits and they turned out pretty good after I dipped them 2x in KBS Diamond Coat.
Last question have you tried making a spinnerbait head with the poison tail jig mold? If so how did they turn out?
Yes this was airbrushed. I'm new at airbrushing but having fun.
I have made spinnerbaits with this mold. You have to dremel a "line" where the wireform sits. I actually have a video on it if you go back in my videos
What size hook do you suggest for each head weight? 4/0 for all?
I use 4/0 hooks for all
U need to do more
💝
Thanks for watching. I plan on getting back to videos here soon
sweet video
Thanks for watching
@@ThatGuySkimpy I like the curve of the blade also
Second place👍👍👍👍
Thanks bro. Was a grind last weekend
Have you tried using the weed guard? If so, will it work using the wire form you provided? I’ve tried other wire forms but there isn’t enough room for the weed guard. I fish a lot of brush
I don't use weedguards in my chatterbaits. I know some people do, I just dont
That Guy Skimpy Ok thanks. Looks like there is enough room to insert the weed guard pin in the video.
Nice jig, can you show us how you paint them.
I actually made a video painting this exact chatterbait. The video is called something like airbrushing largemouth bass pattern
What wire form use on 3/8 oz
Great video Skimp simply love your videos!!!! Very informative brother. Question, where is that catalog from,and how can I get one? Keep casting brother and I hope you are doing well during this trying time!!! Keep casting, and stay safe brother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go to www.do-itmolds.com and request a free one !!!!
Thank you brother!!!!!!!!!
would this also work with the swing tail mold
yes !!!!!!
cool vid skimpster
Thanks brother
Mine is not pouring completely any suggestions
Will this work with any other mold? Swimjig or Arky?
Havent tried yet but tell you what, I will see what I can find out !
Who is that catalog for?
You can download or request a copy at www.do-itmolds.com
So I keep trying but wether I bend the eye out or use the under spin I can’t get the mold to close any ideas ?
What hook are you using ?????
Does it line up like I show in the video ???
That Guy Skimpy yeah it lines up I use a jig hook when I bend the eye out and spinner bait hook when I tried the under spin I think my issue is when I do it it doesn’t fit in the eyelet of the mold
@@mr.reebudz20 gotcha. Yeah if your opening the eye of a hook you have to make sure it still fits in the mold. If not you might have to use a dremmel and open up the eye slot for it to fit. When using the wire form it should fit fine
That Guy Skimpy thanks man appreciate you taking the time out to answer
I noticed you make 1/2oz. Will the same components work for 3/8oz
Yes I make them both sizes
@@ThatGuySkimpy thank you. Love the channel. Can't wait for the next build
Which mold are you using? I enjoy the videos!
Thanks for watching. Its the poisontail jig mold
@@ThatGuySkimpy Thanks , great content!
Hey Skimpy. What size snap do you use for that blade?
Size 2 !!!!
Thank you sir
Where do you get the blades from?
I usually get them from ebay or this overseas company Aliexpress
What size eye?
Where to you purchase your Chatterbait blades? I tried alibabba.com, what a hassle combined with a 30 day wait. Read some reviews, a horror show for some. Thanks for your input.
Ebay !!!!!!
Where do you get your blades?
Ordered them on ebay
