FAQ
Real lures, real process, built by hand in Hawai'i. Here are the answers to what people ask most.
The Subscription
What do I get as a subscriber?
Unedited build videos with my voiceover, one build a week. You pick your speed: the lower tiers get the build in stacked clips, one step at a time. The $20.99 tier watches the full build first and gets first access to numbered lure drops.
How much is it?
Three tiers. $5.99/month: the fish and the skin prep. $10.99/month: the skin lay and the paint, plus everything in $5.99. $20.99/month: the full build, start to finish, plus everything.
How does it work?
You subscribe on Patreon at patreon.com/Livebaitlureshawaii. The videos are delivered through Patreon.
Are the build videos really unedited?
Yes. You see the real process, mistakes and fixes included, with me talking you through what I'm doing and why. That's the whole point.
What are numbered lure drops?
Every numbered lure is hand-signed, LBL Hawaii, with the year, and ships with its own build video. The $20.99 tier gets first access. Once it's gone, it's gone.
Do I need to know how to build lures already?
No. Beginners learn the process from the ground up, and experienced builders pick up the details that usually take years of trial and error to figure out.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel anytime on Patreon. No refunds, but you keep access until your current billing period runs out.
Lures and Care
What if my lure gets beat up?
Every Live Bait Lures lure comes with free lifetime re-resin. Fish it hard and send it back when it needs fresh resin.
Distributors: Run Your Own Territory
What is a Live Bait Lures distributor?
A distributor runs the brand in their own area, like Live Bait Lures Guam or Live Bait Lures Australia. You buy lures at wholesale and sell them under the Live Bait Lures name where you live.
How many distributors are there per area?
One. Each territory gets a single distributor, and once it's taken, it's taken.
How do sales work?
Sales run through the Live Bait Lures Shopify store, so every order you bring in is tracked and credited to you.
What does it cost to become one?
Distributors buy at wholesale and set their own retail price. I share the full numbers after you apply and we've had a real conversation.
Do I need experience?
No. I teach you the real fish skin process the same way I do it. What you need is the drive to learn it right and represent the brand well.
How do I apply for a territory?
Email me at livebaitlureshawaii@gmail.com with your name, where you're located, what you fish, and why you want to run Live Bait Lures in your area. If it's a fit, we'll talk.
Territories are limited. If you've been thinking about it, now is the time to apply.
