Join Eli and me as we talk about his start of building baits, painting, and starting his bait company.

Now making wake baits like the scrambler and new salamander he has been working on. His scrambler bait is a smaller wake bait that could be one of the most beginner-friendly swimbaits made.

Join me as I have the first painter come on the show and talk, Aquaticmarlon! For only doing this for 2 years he is seriously one of the most talented guys I've seen.

2022/03/09

These are by no means going to catch you more fish, but these are a few ideas I've had along my journey while big bait fishing. These may work for you, or they may not. They may make sense to you or I'll sound dumb. But these are things I've implemented in my style of fishing that have helped me catch fish. Maybe my fish are just dumb which could 100% be true since I catch them, but I think these are some tricks I picked up over the years. --- Support this podcast:
