    Love your videos! Jacobi and Houston remind me of my best friend and me as children. Fast forward he's 59 and I'm 57. We are still best friends, mutual best men at our weddings, and godfathers to our children!! Keep up the good work. Those boys will cherish your love and fatherly input forever!!

    Once Houston discovers how much you fun it is to ride in the mud, he will be muddy all the time.
    What a blessing you have in that land.
    God bless Daniel may he shine the love of Jesus on someone who needs it.

    Great video- I did that with my kids back in the 80s. The store bought ones also can catch snakes, small turtles, even frogs . Be kind- leave the top of the trap just above the waterline so the snake or other air breathers can come up for air. Thanks.

    Well done, great production, informative, and best of all looks like fun, reminds me of my boys (and nephews and neighbors :) and me back in the day. Now I've got the grandson and granddaughter to show these things to. already have some plastic bottles of various sizes. My favorites are the rectangular juice bottles. (Welches etc.) they fit well together, and have large openings. A few more small holes will give the bread more flow out to attract fish, might give the store bought traps run for the..money? ha! Also great for public places such as lakes. If someone finds them..only out plastic bottle, not an expensive trap! And ya someone might say plastic bottles shouldn't be put in water, worse case, the bottles will sink and provide shelter for small fish to escape larger ones, thus increasing production of fish! And yup, put some bacon and dogfood in them and you'll have crawdads...they love that bacon! BTW my ears perked up when I heard Oklahoma, I'm an Okie myself:-) Great job! Good kids having fun...even the big kid lol

  • @ghostwriter1869
    @ghostwriter1869 Před 3 lety

    The only problem with using bread is after the minnows eat it the yeast expands in their bellies especially in warm weather. When this happens they try to regurgitate it but the expansion is too rapid and it kills them. A good indication of this is if you notice your bait dying and bread is sticking out of their mouth. In warm weather and freshwater, I'd use dry dog food. For saltwater minnows (AKA Killies), I'd use a crush crab or clam. In both situations, a can of dog or cat food would also work in any temp. Just poke a few holes in the can on both sides so it sinks, and put it in the trap. Hope this helps! Keep up the great vids!!

    I make those plastic traps for flies... not fishing flys, but the ones in the barn. Cheap and throwaways. Just hang a few from rafters, doorways or walls. You would be surprised at the amount flies they will catch!... BLOOD and rancid meat and/or guts and a bit of anything sweet to keep it moist is best bait.. You can't smell it from 5 foot away, but flies can and find the way in. Don't put holes in sides or cut off screw top threads, keep hole small. Flies will find blood anywhere, fast... Just throw away whole thing away when full.

    Suggestion: Not giving Houston any ideas... (I lied...yea, I am.. with dad's help... lol) try making a double bottle trap with 2 entrances, one on each end and test it side by side against single entrance and 'store bought' trap.
    If that entrance hole was 'taller' narrow slot and set at 90 degrees horizontal so fish would swim past end smelling bait and guided by the funnel sideways to the hole and they'll push thru slot into trap sideways. Those smaller Bluegills can get in and are not bright enough to turn sideways to get out.... Tight slot size for the size bluegill you want to trap and flimsy flap from bottle neck cut will be easy for them to push in and somewhat close behind them.
    Attach bottles together by slipping cut off bottom ends of bottles together and inserting into each other and 'glue' together with a solder iron or hot nail just poking a few holes on the overlapping plastic, bonding the plastic in a few places.. or use hot glue, but too hot of glue will distort plastic and make it a PITB to connect..
    Dehydrated 'BassSnacks'!.... dried on a screen and packaged.
    (If Houston markets 'BassSnacks' I want in on the action!.... lol... jk...)

I found out when my daughter was having the same problem...my daughter for strep everytime we went to my nieces house...a nurse let me know that the dog can harbor the strep. But doesn't really get sick .
      The cure is for the dog to take medicine the same time as the kiddos...
