Today, I wanted to share a special experience with you all. As I entered my shop to fulfill a large order for 3/4 oz and 1 oz Ultra minnows, I encountered an unexpected challenge. Normally, I don’t have trouble pouring these baits, but for some reason, everything seemed to be going wrong. The bottom part, where the bait or tie attaches, just wasn’t coming out as it should.

Frustrated, I mentioned my struggle to my wife. She asked, “Did you pray about it?” At first, I hadn’t, but it struck me that, while I am a Christian and practice prayer and devotion regularly, I sometimes forget to involve God in my work when I’m caught up in the details.

After she left, I took a moment to pray, asking the Lord for help in completing this task. I acknowledged that, while my skills and effort matter, ultimately, I can’t do it all on my own. I prayed for guidance and the strength to get these baits just right.

And wouldn’t you know it? The next two or three batches came out perfectly, just as they were meant to. The struggle I faced earlier faded away, and things flowed smoothly.

I wanted to take this moment to praise God for His help and to remind you all: sometimes, no matter how skilled or experienced we are, there are moments when we need to place our trust in someone greater. For me, that’s the Lord.

Thank you for your continued support. May God bless you, and may you have tight lines on your next fishing adventure.

Welcome back to Big Ugly Plastics! In today’s video, I’m taking you behind the scenes of the bait-making process. But let’s keep it real—this one includes a fail. With the cold weather setting in, crafting baits in an unheated environment brought its own set of challenges.

Failures are part of the journey, and every mistake is a chance to learn and grow. Join me as I troubleshoot, adapt, and continue creating high-quality, handmade soft plastic baits despite the conditions.

If you’ve ever struggled with your own projects or wondered about the realities of bait making, this video is for you. Remember, it’s not about perfection—it’s about persistence!
