Great tips, thank you.u

I’ve been looking for a good one to make forever thank you this video helped me a lot😊

On the entrance to the trap sure a wire pencil holder. It's the same wire mesh and it's tapered...

Good idea. Crawfish are plentiful and can be found in nearly any body of fresh water whether stream, pond, or lake. If SHTF, this kind of stuff can help you survive.

This is great, I'll have to check my local laws to see if I can build one to use.. thanks

You looked to be realing too fast for jigging. But I could be wrong lol. Good stuff Maynard!

Good content 👍

Glad I was able to help and see the other side while stuck at camp!

Do some research on how to handle a trout properly

Thank you

Grand trap design. Thanks for sharing. I plan on building about 6 of these tomorrow when dollar tree opens up,with a few minor modifications. Will let you know how it goes.

A hangman’s knot would also work for securing the rope to the trap, and then you don’t have to use the shrink tubing and zip ties. I personally use the same knot when putting on a hook or swivel on my fishing rod. And another thought, Dollar tree also sales paracord that is a little stouter than that plastic rope.

Thank you for showing us how to build a crayfish trap and you showed us how to make it so cheaply.

Caught a bunch of Dad’s last week on the homemade trap…. I suspended a box inside for the bait so the dad’s have to crawl inside to get to the bait… I also used the top of a bottle as a cone on each end…. it worked… thanks for the video!

MacGyver..thanks for sharing...

The Amazon trap is now 9 bucks. Can't beat that

You really need to bait your traps with a type of oily fish we use herring we catch skipjack herring at a dam on the Alabama river about 10 minutes from the house

How about using some wire mesh from your local hardware store instead of all the chinese made plastic junk from the dollar store. Ya I get it, things are expensive. BUTT, if you just have a little patience and support your local stores and buy USA made materials, things will get better and cheaper in the future. Crayfish don't give a shit what your trap is made from, but you should.

Boo. Someone messed with your traps. Boo. People suck

Thanks for sharing your Dollar store crawfish trap and I also like some of the tips left by viewers...

You need to get some black or camo rope so no one takes your trap

I am absolutely flabbergasted. I have over 20k views on this video. Thank you all for the support. Add a comment of what you all want to see in other videos.

Pool noodles work great for floats.

Big Hawaiian punch type bottles might work as your float instead of 2 literally bottles. They have the rectangle handle so you don't need to compromise the air in the bottle. My father in law uses one with chicken, string and a hook to catch the snapping turtles in his pond.

Hey was just wondering, what do you think about pillow traps? Would they work as good as these cylinder traps?

I'm so happy that you saved me money on traps! It's a little fun project to do at home too!

Exactly what i did. I used some wire mesh for the funnel openings

Bluegill works good for bait also.

Awesome video, doing this with the kids tomorrow.

Great idea. 👍👍 I will definitely try it. Dollar store here I come😊

Tuck the rope on the trap end back through itself 3 times if you don't know how to splice. Then you do not need a ZIP tie or heat shrink. After using our traps a few times, we did not get many crawfish? When we swam over the trap lines, we found 50-100 chewing on the lines which had been contaminated with the smell of bait by keeping them in the trap as you do. Bad idea. We now use a short loop to tie to on the trap and keep the line in a clean bucket during transport. Our traps fold open at the center so they nest for storage and transport.

wrap tie around rope twice before pulling tight will hold more without slipping

Actually a great idea, thanks for the info I’ve just subbed, looking forward to more videos.

Another one of your great ideas.

Very innovative method with the two cameras. Well done.

Awesome cages bro

Good info bro 👍 I was actually going ta get a trap at Bi-Mart but, think I'll hit the Dollar Tree instead 👊

Try using cut tilapia or some other oily kind of fish.

That’s essentially 3/4 mesh right? Insanely retarded regulations here in AR.....we can only have a 2” opening.

The garden plant ties are also @ the dollar store.

Cool i found this video after i ordered trap from amazon. Next stop dollar store

Nice! Gonna build one tomorrow 👍

Look into maybe a fish finder for your kayak,try doing some lure fishing

That's a cool trap, but it wouldn't be legal in Washington State, but with Rot Cord instead of the bread tie, it would be legal.. That's for sharing this trap.

Ive done my part sir i loved it huggg

Since it has been brought to my attention by a viewer I will address this. Always check the regulations in the state and area you live. This trap is made for California regulation. Other states won’t allow this type of trap. Thank you for the information 99neworleans.

Looks like the winner is angelcrz4dogs. Get ahold of me and I’ll get the crab snare out to you.

Nice Snare. Did you make that one?

Just remember Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries crawfish traps requirement has to be 3/4 by 11/16 square, or larger, a three-quarter inch hexagon chicken wire or larger, With a $15 trapping License up for 35 traps Max, Telling the agent you didn't know that will not get you out of a $250 fine

I definitely need a mic. Got one ordered and on the way. I’m sorry for the poor audio.
