The dog is not mine btw. It's my aunts :) Here is the link to the personal alarms you can use for this trap: amzn.to/2EbUcjC Make sure you buy products where the plug and the sling are exactly opposite to each other. Thanks for watching and stay tuned till next time. Lilly
Fallen trees are a good reminder of what to look for when building a camp. I've seen large branches fall on quiet sunny day, perhaps water logged from a recent rain and out of nowhere down it comes.
You should have included a serious warning on this video. This technique would be illegal in a whole lot of places for multiple reasons. It's designed to be left unattended, it's an indiscriminate fish-killer, plus a hazard to birds, amphibians, and other people -- it's a poaching rig by its very nature. This should only be used in a wilderness emergency survival situation where you are having to gather food for multiple people who can't even move to get their own. I won't get dramatically furious about it here, but you are getting "good enough to give other people bad ideas." This comes with a responsibility to teach conservation.
For anyone concerned about Lilly cutting down hazel, it is one of the best trees that can be coppiced. If you cut the sapling at an angle so it's not flat and does not catch rain, the base of the sapling will sprout "suckers" around it and cause more shoots to grow up over time. This is called coppicing, and it is an ancient practice that has been used for thousands of years to produce lots of thin wooden shafts from a single base. The trees are pruned down to the stump every 3-5 years, depending upon the needs of the person managing & harvesting the copse (a small stand of woods wherein coppicing is or was practiced), and it can be a healthy part of sustainable forestry management. Additionally, since coppiced saplings tend to be used in basketweaving or hurdle-making (wattle-woven walls for gardens or even wattle-and-daub homes, which can include the Tudor beam-and-plaster style popular in Europe for a long period of time), it can help lock away the carbon dioxide absorbed by those trees for many decades, if not centuries. On top of that, if several saplings are allowed to grow to the point that nuts are produced, it will produce more nuts (food for humans and animals) than a single tree trunk would support. Hazel nuts can start producing nuts at 2-5 years old, so you can have a cycle of tree growth that includes nut harvesting as well as timber harvesting. While nut trees for mass commercial production are often kept pruned to one tree trunk, smaller scale (subsistence) hazelnut groves can have patches of trees at various stages of pruning, growth, and nut harvesting. The only trick is to ensure that you have several different cultivars in your grove, as they require cross-pollination from genetically different varieties to produce nuts.
That line looks like the ones my grandfather use to put up when I was a teen and went fishing with him. The only difference is he didn't have any alarms on the lines. He would place the lines down the local creek and go back and forth to check them and came home with many fish after a day out in the woods. Thanks for sharing this fishing tip with us all and I wish you a great 2019, Lilly.
My dad and I used to set up throw lines. Tie a line to a strong flexible branch on the river bank. We set multiple lines and checked them every 1 to 2 hours during the night. We also set out trought lines from bank to bank on the river. You need a canoe or row boat to maintain it. We always caught a lot of fish that way. Mostly catfish. Good video. Reminded me of other ways to fish.
I always wondered why when I watched the survivalist guys like Less Stroud our Bear Grylls, why in the world they didn't set bank lines? We would check our lines a couple of times at night and in the morning and would invariably have at least a few catfish or drum. Also, turtle traps are dog simple and would provide bait or a meal depending on how picky or hungry you were.
@@slowpokebr549 same, on narrow rivers it was set one side of your line and throw the other end over, set snares along the bank and setlines across the river over a hundred yards or so then cross and set snares down the other side, securing your second end of setlines as you go. Halfhour walk and you have maybe 20 snares and 4 lines with 5 leaders on each, thats 40 chances of dinner in a very short time. Plus normal foraging as you go ofc.
I've watched four videos about passive fishing and hunting. Your the first to show me what; let alone how to make a trigger stick. Wish you all the best, and thanks!
Great stuff, Lilly! Awesome fishing "trap" and I'm surprised that no one on the Alone series used this method of fishing (without the alarm). Setting up wire snare for small critters with the audible alarm would be extremely helpful in a personal survival situation. BTW congratulations on your wonderful success! Well deserved.
I don't even know any women that have talent such as this. I know a couple that can cook pretty decent but nothing like this. My hat is off to you young lady.
here in the US we have a big problem with an insect called the "emerald ash borer" which kills ash trees. the ash tree that fell by your river camp may have been affected. also the auto fishing pole is a very cool idea !!! looks like you found a new companion who seemed to be enjoying a good romp in the woods
China has been creating Markets for decades,trying to get world dependant on them. We in the USA gifted them our industry,cheating our own people who fight over burger jobs in inner cities. China sent Emerald Borer beetle that killed every ash tree In North Eastern US up into Canadian forest. Now Spotted Lantern Fly to ruin our ability to grow fruit. Chinese Jumping Worm to eat grasses and bet the deer tick epidemic we must investigate as well.. China MUST be NIXED from sending anything into other nations. They have people setting on PC all day to figure ways to create markets. They do not deserve trust they have insulted for decades. They cast net fish so one belly gets 100 huge breeder fish,then when fish depleted,they look to neighbors plate. Same old China.
LOL, I just saw a video of yours for the first time two days ago and now I am watching them all! Great stuff for the kids to learn early. Thanks Lilly!
As a fisherman, a small enough hook you can just deploy on the river bank with enough weigh and the fish will guy hook themselves. Just secure line properly.
A small set of pruning in shear and a medium axe are my preferred tools for this…ax to cut and pound the stick into the ground, pruners to cut the branches and easily adjust them! You’re welcome!
Thats a good one SL, when I was young, and living in the country we used that method we would find a small tree close enough ,we would just shape the pole. permanent fishing pole, if you keep it groomed. Good fishing methode, when living near a stream.
An easier way to make a spring pole trap (which is what this is) is two cut two saplings of the appropriate size leaving two short pieces of a branch, one on each piece. One is long enough to solidly pound or secure into the ground or use one already growing there if it is in an appropriate place. Each short piece of branch points in the opposite direction. Attach the line on the short piece as she does etc. Hook one piece of branch over the other with the spring pole under tension. Adjust the length of the branch pieces so it is secure yet easy to disengage if a fish pulls. Hook your pinky fingers over each other to get the idea! Much easier and faster than cutting notches….no need for toggle sticks at all! I have made animal traps this way for many years and can attest to their effectiveness!
Lilly the only time a fish will not bite is when the water is too murky. The cold will not matter because people do ice fishing and I catch a lot of fish in below 0 winters. A great automatic fishing poll, I love it.
Uhm, it works, I have used similar setup for 40 years, my grandparents did... I have found that rod only is about as effective if you can see the rods all the time and have a slack bight with release. The release is merely 5-7mm diameter stick 20mm lomg with notch allowing 1m of line to form a bight (one end is knoted to line bight is made and line lightly pushed into nothch until held there, this allows fish to swim 1m or so before being caught short hooking it. Downside is fish may get eaten by pike... if not picked up asap.
I love your accent. I lived and worked in Austria for a while in the 1990s, in the small village of Roppen, near Imst, in Tirol. Fantastic place, I loved it there.
I have been watching your videos for a long time I'm not sure if I've ever told you but I think you're amazing!!!! You have taught me a lot and giving me confidence to think I might be able to survive in a dire situation if even just for a little bit definitely open my mind up to a lot of possibilities I was unaware of... with All my heart I thank you and wish you the happiest most prosperous blessing filled New Year!!! 💛💛💛
I would like to add another comment to my previous post. THIS IS NOT A TRAP THIS IS A STATIC FISHING RIG. A Fishing Basket is a trap same as a fishing weir. Because fish can break these lines and can get free. Whereas in the trap they CAN NOT. Survival Lily, Thanks again for sharing your talents with these nubes.
I like your channel AND I think to make myself a trigger fishing pole this summer and catch a fish with it while camping with my dog. Thanks for the idea miss Lilly. Blessings to you.
I've fished rivers pretty much my whole life and been quite successful _but_ I recently learned two incredible tips from a river fishing guide where to put your line! 1st, fish don't hang around in fast water (which I'd already realized years ago) so focus on finding where the water is running _slowest_ at, preferably a calm pool or pocket is best. But the _real trick_ is look at the surface of the water and watch where the bits of froth and FOAM are all funneling through. Those will always flow along the same specific pathways on the surface like little roads, and the FOAM is where all the FOOD is! Any insects or other easy meals naturally funnel along the lines of the foam, so find a spot where the foam enters a slow flowing area to set your lines. 👍
I have been watching your videos for years and always learn something from you. Danke. Ich wünschte, ich könnte so gut Deutsch wie Sie Englisch sprechen.
I like the trap, but not using the alarm. I did a lot of fishing when I was younger and I learned that noise scares fish away. The first time the alarm goes off you won’t catch anything else there for at least a day.
Pretty neat rig.. Though, we have plenty of success using simple limb lines without a trigger. But that could be because we typically use circle hooks and catch catfish with them.
I just use a bell. That alarm would drive my dogs crazy and probably scare away every living thing with in a kilometer. The idea is great, just 2 loud. If I woke up hearing that, I would think either my house was on fire or my car had been broken into (Panic mode). Hope you appreciate my honesty. Love your channel!
I am a 68-year-old guy with heart disease So for safety reasons I have built a bug out camp in my yard. I Want to thank you for all your videos. Because of you, I am able to try all these things. I have a swimming pool (Lake Lilly) and a jacuzzi (Dax Pond) I still miss him. I have my dog, Bandit, Who camps with me. All in all, I am enjoying my retirement because I have a new hobby. Thanks, Lilly
The constrictor knot was slipping due to the angle at which it was being pulled. It is great when it forms a square angle with the base, perpendicular to it, but horrible when its parallel to it (which is the case). I would use a tight bowline instead!!! Great upload nonetheless, cheers and happy new year!!
Very good idea, Lilly. You don't have to use it if you dont want to be located or don't want to hear it but it is a good alternative signalling device and perimeter alarm (among several other uses) as well as a great fishing alarm for this sort if trap. And they're cheap. Smart for the prepared survivalist IMHO. Great job Lilly!
For the budget conscious. A discount store $1 window/door alarm would be more cost effective. And they usually come with batteries. For the price of the one personal alarm ($20), you could get lots, and have some for security perimeter and of course fishing or other projects.
This type of knot is called ‘ballestrinque” in Spain. I would like you to make a video about 5-6 easy knots for buscraft, I am afraid I am quite rusty and knots is a must in bushcraft. The “rod” with the alarm, is very original indeed
FYI The biggest fish are the laziest fish and in fresh water they love the easy meal which is always found in the shallows where room to run away is a bit more limited. 😁
Thanks! That's a great setup! I love that you can get a load of bots fishing for you while you go and do something else! :) I suppose another reason for the alarm is that you might catch something tiny or inedible that you would want to throw back. :)
Very nice video Lilly. I was so begging the dog to pull the anchor stick out of the ground (looked like he/she was going to) and when you would have turned around it would have been gone, would have been priceless.
Nice I definitely am going to make one or two or three and try them out but I’ll be sure to checkout the fishing regulations for Michigan before I test.❤
Nice job, Lilly- I'm going to try this! (But with bells.) Btw, keep an eye on that fallen tree; it's going to turn into a super-highway for animals who want to cross the river without getting wet.
16 people wanted to see the fishing rod trap actually catch a fish. Personally, I’d use the cat collar bells or put a resistor on the personal alarm speaker wire to quieten it down a bit.
happy new year 2019 form the uk. love your videos it helps me out and when I going out with my kids camping as a single father. we look up at the stars and say lily is looking up as well its to get my kids of they phones and get some fresh air out side....... it's free and agent time as a family thank you x
A Series of Unfortunate Events season 3 just started on Netflix, and it has a new character that is a Lilly clone! She not only looks like Lilly but is surviving in the wilderness with her great outdoors skills. For example she quickly makes skis out of bark and later uses them to start a fire. I can't wait to see what she does next!
Very nice....the trigger is much slippery than I thought it would be. I have seen similar types but more in the figure 4 configuration. However, they would also drive in a sick 90 degrees perpendicular to the anchor stick and wrap the free fishing line around that stick so that it would be pulled out from the side instead of the front, making it a bit more slippery. Yours however seemed to do the job just fine. The alarm is a nice touch as well. The ash can make some great firewood. You're set!
Excellent video Lilly The Trigger mechanism is very good can be used in many forms of trapping, You answered my question the hound belongs to your aunt nice dog. Thanks for sharing 👍👋👌🇬🇧
Great trap and handy having that Ash tree falling right near the camp...Ash burns when green, although better when unseasoned...but still ideal. Looks like you won't have any trouble keeping warm next visit there 😉
Happy new year Survival Lilly! I hope you enjoyed Africa and learned plenty of new skills to show us all. My children just arrived home from Zimbabwe today, they were visiting with their mother. I was there in 2012 and I left part of my heart in Africa.
awesome video Lilly. Think I'd use a small can w/a nail knocker in it in case it rained on my electrical device. It's what we use for beach fishing at night when someone forgets their little bell.
Three old guys in the nursing home. The first guy complaining how he can't pee anymore, up all night, going to the bathroom only to "squirt" and dribble a couple of drops each time. Second old geezzer complaining about how he can't poop like he use to. It's either constipation or "the hurshy squirts." The third "old fart" didn't have those problems. He said every morning at 07:05, he has to pee, like a river, full flow & non-stop. Then at 07:15 he's got to poop. Always a nice, smooth, long loaf. The first two old guys said, "YOUR LUCKY!" The third guy said, "Not really, I don't wake up until after 09:00.
As others have stated about watching You use Your blade, it appears to do a great job, cutting, chopping & notching. Seems to do better than other knivrs You have used previously ! Great Knife, Gal !!!!
The dog is not mine btw. It's my aunts :) Here is the link to the personal alarms you can use for this trap: amzn.to/2EbUcjC Make sure you buy products where the plug and the sling are exactly opposite to each other. Thanks for watching and stay tuned till next time. Lilly
Your knife design looks excellent. I can't wait to get one. Does that one have some kind of oxide finish?
yes I used the oxide finish in this video :)
@@SurvivalLilly You should auction the ones you use in the videos like the way Hickok45 sells his T&E guns. : ) I bet they'd fetch quite a price.

Very good idea, Lilly. You don't have to use it if you dont want to be located or don't want to hear it but it is a good alternative signalling device and perimeter alarm (among several other uses) as well as a great fishing alarm for this sort if trap. And they're cheap. Smart for the prepared survivalist IMHO. Great job Lilly!
Pretty good adaptation of the spring snare concept. Very cool - should work quite well. Happy New Year!
Sehr cool , fesch gebaut, super Messer und mit einem Signalgeber habe ich es noch nie gesehen! Danke fürs zeigen und schönen Tag. LG Sepp

A Series of Unfortunate Events season 3 just started on Netflix, and it has a new character that is a Lilly clone! She not only looks like Lilly but is surviving in the wilderness with her great outdoors skills. For example she quickly makes skis out of bark and later uses them to start a fire. I can't wait to see what she does next!
Wow I didn't know that would be out yet! Thanks for the reminder!!
nice job Lilly, and may 19 be a great year for you.
6:06 - dog runs away with the anchor stick! lol
Depending on what the situation is, you might be able to harvest some of that ash for seasoning into fantastic firewood.
Great firewood! Glad it miss your camp.
Fantastic Lilly!! Thanks
You could use a simple circle hook and bank pole set without all the trigger work that will hook and hold fish much better, less effort
An excellent idea. Thanks for sharing.
Very good video lilly. We haven't tried this one yet. But will be shortly 👍👍
Maybe try a net crossing the tiny river to catch even more fish.
Every time an animal such as a bird or a dog makes too much noise near two different houses I've passed by an alarm makes that annoying noise.
Very nice....the trigger is much slippery than I thought it would be. I have seen similar types but more in the figure 4 configuration. However, they would also drive in a sick 90 degrees perpendicular to the anchor stick and wrap the free fishing line around that stick so that it would be pulled out from the side instead of the front, making it a bit more slippery. Yours however seemed to do the job just fine. The alarm is a nice touch as well. The ash can make some great firewood. You're set!
Excellent video Lilly
The Trigger mechanism is very good can be used in many forms of trapping,
You answered my question the hound belongs to your aunt nice dog.
Thanks for sharing 👍👋👌🇬🇧
I like how your aunts dog inspected your work...looks good peace
Widowmakers... Maybe I should check surrounding trees a bit more often when camping. an easy one to forget!
I will adopt that cross notch technique. So much easier!
Happy New Year! Nice puppy you have there (I still miss mine).
That's a cool device that I had not seen. Thanks Lilly & Happy New Year. - Marco
Great trap and handy having that Ash tree falling right near the camp...Ash burns when green, although better when unseasoned...but still ideal. Looks like you won't have any trouble keeping warm next visit there 😉
You never cease to amaze me Lily pretty and smart really great video you taught me a new trick
Very clever! Oh my, how lucky that you are okay!
I love your videos by learning a lot
Fishy yum yum...happy New Year Lily...
That's really cool I love how easy you made the clove hitch explanation super awesome 👍 teaching made easy
Thanks lily, have a wonderful year ahead... and hugs to doggins!
Dear Lilly....
PLEASE NEVER STOP MAKING THESE VIDEOS!!!! :)
Why do you want her to stop making these videos ???
Lilly , great idea , i'm definitely going to be trying this method come trout season, double thumbs up !
Happy new year Survival Lilly! I hope you enjoyed Africa and learned plenty of new skills to show us all. My children just arrived home from Zimbabwe today, they were visiting with their mother. I was there in 2012 and I left part of my heart in Africa.
awesome video Lilly. Think I'd use a small can w/a nail knocker in it in case it rained on my electrical device. It's what we use for beach fishing at night when someone forgets their little bell.
Three old guys in the nursing home. The first guy complaining how he can't pee anymore, up all night, going to the bathroom only to "squirt" and dribble a couple of drops each time. Second old geezzer complaining about how he can't poop like he use to. It's either constipation or "the hurshy squirts." The third "old fart" didn't have those problems. He said every morning at 07:05, he has to pee, like a river, full flow & non-stop. Then at 07:15 he's got to poop. Always a nice, smooth, long loaf. The first two old guys said, "YOUR LUCKY!" The third guy said, "Not really, I don't wake up until after 09:00.
Always a good idea to check for widow-makers when making your shelter.
It's great to see u back again. Outstanding
I need more fishing videos .. Great job
Great tip to cut the x for the notch 🤗
As others have stated about watching You use Your blade, it appears to do a great job, cutting, chopping & notching. Seems to do better than other knivrs You have used previously ! Great Knife, Gal !!!!
Hello from Canada. Love your videos take care
Constrictor knot , is a Clove Hitch.
excellent and efficient time multiplier, thanks Lilly, great fishing system
Lilly, who taught you all of this? I'm so proud of you! 👍 Thanks for sharing!
Das Beste an deinen Videos finde ich eigentlich deine Freude zu sehen, wenn etwas funktioniert; was auch immer...:-))
