TLDRThe video shows a fishing lure maker experimenting with colorants to achieve a dark red plastic bait with silver glitter. After initial attempts don't produce the desired results, they add more red dye and blue and green pigments per Siri's suggestion. This results in a purple plastic instead of dark red. They reuse leftover melted plastic and inject it into new molds. The final baits have a purple color with red glow and some silver glitter. The lure maker acknowledges the color isn't as envisioned but turned out well regardless. The special lures will be available for sale on February 14th.

🎣 Mixing colors to create fishing lure plastic

The narrator mixes red, blue, and green plastic pellets in an attempt to create a dark red fishing lure plastic. He starts with a light red and asks Siri how to make it darker. Siri suggests adding blue and green, which creates more of a purple color. The narrator salvages leftover plastic and puts it back in the mixer to reuse.

👨‍🔧 Salvaging and re-melting leftover plastic

The narrator takes leftover hardened plastic out of the molds and puts it back into the plastic melting machine. He explains this allows him to reuse plastic instead of throwing it away. He notes melting down the plastic works best when the machine already contains hot liquid plastic.

🎣 Reviewing final fishing lure plastics

The narrator shows the final fishing lure plastics made from the mixed colors. They ended up more purple than the dark red he was aiming for. However, he says they still look cool, especially since they glow red. He mentions they will be available at a fishing show on February 14.

Keywords
💡lure making
The main theme of the video is the process of making fishing lures. The person in the video refers to themselves as a 'fellow lure maker' and describes steps like mixing colors, injecting plastic into molds, etc. Example from script: 'if you are a fellow lure maker and are looking to do this...'.
💡colors
Different plastic colors are mixed together to create the desired shades for the fishing lures. A major point in the video is trying to mix the right colors to create a dark red shade. Example: 'I'm going to dump a bunch [of jelly red] in there and see what happens'.
💡molds
Molds of different shapes are filled with the plastic to form the final fishing lure product. The process of injecting plastic into molds is mentioned. Example: 'you can shoot [the plastic] into the baits that way'.
💡melting plastic
The video describes melting down leftover plastic from previous batches to reuse it, as a way to avoid waste. A 'mini shooting star' machine is used to melt the plastic. Example: 'it'll melt back down with the rest of the batch'.
💡glitter
Glitter is added to some of the plastic mixes to give the lures a sparkly, fish-attracting appearance. An anecdote is told about trying to clean up a glitter spill. Example: 'after testing this method extensively on this big pile of glitter...
💡troubleshooting
When the color mixtures don't turn out as expected, the video shows different troubleshooting methods like asking Siri for advice and adding more colorant. Adapting to mistakes is a theme. Example: 'not exactly what we were going for but don't hate it'.
💡release date
The finished lures will be sold starting on a specific future date, indicating this is a business. The release date of February 14th is given. Example: 'these are going to be available on February 14th'.

💡trial and error
Experimentation is a major theme, as the color mixing does not go as planned but various fixes are tested. Adaptability is valued over perfection. Example: 'you can always add stuff to them but you can't take stuff out'.
