Catching lots of shrimp with home made shrimp traps

- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Always trying to weasel in a practical math lesson, we are trying out our home made shrimp traps and catching lots of shrimp and prawns!
I know people can catch way more, but put this in perspective: first time making the traps, first time using them, and first time shrimping at this location. Pretty darn good for a first time.
We used our home made shrimp traps side by side with a couple purchased traps all weekend and found they worked as good or better than the expensive ones.
We fished for 3 1/2 days and averaged a couple hundred shrimp and prawns each day, fishing just 5 minutes from shore. I'm pretty confident we'll find better spots, specifically it would be great to figure out where all the giant prawns are at, they are 10 times the size of shrimp.
While we were generally shrimping, our friends were catching spring salmon. Luckily our friends are terrific and invited us to get in on the action.
If you have some old buckets, these traps would only cost 2-3 bucks each, even if you have to buy the 5 gallon buckets, it would land you around $10-15 each. We found the plastic mesh at a hardware store and it worked great.
Anyways, you can easily make these shrimp traps at home, with or without the home school geometry lesson. Dave might even go shrimping in a canoe! Good luck!
I have never, NEVER SAW YOUNG LADIES so HAPPY an RESPECTABLE. GREAT JOB MOM AN DAD........
My head hurts with all those numbers
I know a lot of kids who are missing out on tons of life experience.
Way to go Jim and Rose
The pride I saw on dad's face when the gals were hauling up the prawns and landing the salmon was priceless! Yup, the family cohesion y'all have created has won me over big time---and MATH?? I loathe math but seeing you make it reality with the prawn traps was one of those 'teachable moments' that I cherished as a 37 year elementary teacher. Good on you!
Thanks!
8:48 That look of mutual pride and joy is priceless. Congratulations, you win.
I’ve never heard children so respectful as when they saw that their dad was successful. Such smart kids.
This channel should have a million subs. Amazing family.
I concur, make it so!
This Channel should have a million sups. Amazing family
Salute to Jeff, he is a master survivor and an amazing Dad to his kids.
The family that is always smiling. Best parenting videos on youtube. Envy from silicon valley. Math is my living. You are so blessed.
You, your wife and Dave are special, special people. The upbringing you are providing those girls is, priceless.
Your videos are great (hint: there is never enough) but ones like this need to be at least one hour long. Can't get enough of you all and Dave. Brings a smile to our faces. Thanks.
U guys are great...my favorite vids. Informative, funny, and kid friendly. Totally loved it when your wife asked if u were going to fire her, then she gave the look. Lol
I love you all and the brother moments crack me up to no end! Your ladies give us hope for our future! Love the wheel of fortune!
Definitely glad you are not monetized with constant annoying commercials like most channels. That's the only reason I've watched so many of your videos and keep watching them! As well as, the wholesome, good -natured 100% QUALITY MATERIAL, of course! Keep up the great work, all of you and THANK YOU! FOR GIVING THE REST OF US HOPE IN THIS GODLESS COUNTRY OF OURS AND WHAT IT'S DEVOLVED INTO... TRULY POSITIVE AND INSPIRATIONAL, YOU ALL HAVE BEEN TO ME 💪❣️✝️🙏🗡️
Actually, I am a rocket scientist ;-) Good job on the traps, math really does matter. The proof is in the prawns!
What a family this is. When those young girls turned 25 to 30, they will be the most skilled and trained girls in the country.
Cool!
Great parenting!
Making memories that will last a lifetime
Critical thinking is important!
We discovered you guys today and have subscribed. We are Aussies and love how your family works together without aggro. As parents you are right to have pride in your daughters and your daughters obviously love and respect you. And respect is earned. Your love for each other is heartening in today's society. Well done and keep it up, we love what you've accomplished and how your teaching your girls how to be self-sufficient in all aspects of life and living. WELL DONE AND CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the encouragement Richard, glad you could join us!
Great video on making the Prawn Traps.
Your friend needs to get a bigger net for Salmon - You need to get them to fall into the net deep enough that they can't flip out. When they do, turn the net so as to close the bag to make sure they don't jump out. That second Chinook was very close to escaping that shallow net!
As for the Prawn Traps, I would hook them up so that when you pull them, the water will flow through them rather than sideways, the way you have them now. It will make them much easier to pull if you don't have the water resisting you. I would also hang the weight on the outside of the trap so you don't crush any Prawns from it bouncing around inside the trap on the way up.
I like the trap puller you built - looks great.
New to You. I had so much fun and smiles! Thank you all!
OH, God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am the second person to like your new video,
I love the way you live your life and raising your kids,
I have watched your every single video and eagerly waits for the new one,
Lots of love from INDIA,
God bless you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks! So glad that your enjoying the vids.
I so love this amazing gracious family! Thank you for sharing 💕🙌
Beside shrimp fishing, the background image of the lake and mountain as he was eating the cooked shrimp is just mesmerizing. What a view to behold as you enjoy your food.
It was an amazing view! Glad that you noticed it!
Is it a lake or a river?
Good job kids my daughter and my son smiling see your all helping your father
You two guys crack me up.Beautiful family dad. Great fishing.
Thanks for a great Video😃
And thanks for No Comercials 🙏😃
Great to see Kids enjoying the great outdoors with their parents. And what a great day yall had on the water. Priceless....
I have never experienced fishing and shrimping in my life, so thank you for making this video.
Awesome deal
Plus you are teaching the children HOW to never.go hungry for.LIFE
💓🇺🇸
You are all lovely lovely people, I am so pleased I found your channel, I am in the UK so hello from near Brighton (bottom of the Uk)
Glad to have you from the mother country!
Father is supper hero.
N he teach to daughter's ...
I appreciate you n your family.
Well, that is the most comprehensive demonstration of mathematics application I have ever seen. You did well for your kids, and proved it! 😀😎
Your girls never cease to amaze me, what an incredible job you & Rose have done raising them. I'm heading back to BC soon and I can't wait to get out on those waters, this video made me really excited for it! Sending love from Nova Scotia.
Are they in BC? I thought they were in the US. Ontario here.
Northern BC near PG.
Very nice. Good family's cooperation. Nice kids.
And good parents.
There is a huge part of me that wants to live like that.
Guys I love u so so too too much
We need to see u every day 💕
I am following u from Morocco
Glad your enjoying the videos! We do our best to get vids out as often as we can!
Gridlessness I’m sure that is very time consuming ,Thank you ! God Bless
Your videos are my "feel good" videos of the week. I'm on the road all week and I get home, wake up Saturday morning, and there you are. It's like waiting for Saturday morning cartoons when we were kids... wait... wait... wait... then finally, BAM!!! Bugs Bunny and Wile E Coyote. It is EXQUISITE! RAPTUROUS!!! Dare I say, almost DIVINE!!!... Thanks for sharing your fun with us.
Devine, wow! Thanks! Our kids kinda feel like our vids are like Saturday morning cartoons as well.
You guys must have a blast together,friends , family,and a whole lot of fun!!
I love watching your videos. Thanks to Dan Hurd. Been binge watching for the last 2 days. You guys are amazing and inspirational.
Thanks so much, and welcome to the channel!
BEAUTIFUL family! Love the fact you're teaching your girls to learn, live, and survive! Always good to marry up lol! God bless you all!
Thumbs up for a family effort that paid off! Well done guys!
Jeff you are one happy man! Wonderful life for you and your family! I admire your adventures!
you 2 guys are extremely funny!!!!!!
That bicycle wheel trap puller was ingenious. Here on the East Coast you are only allowed to salmon fish with fly rods. If you use anything else, expect to spend a day in court. As always, great vid.
I just love what you guys do👍. Thank you
OUtside of the sneaky math lesson. You don't need to buy everything. You can actually make things of things. A great video.
Great seeing kids outdoors having fun, and also learning. Thanks for sharing your videos! 😎👍👍
Five years to retirement and I'm coming out to BC.....cant wait...
Totally amazing..I don't know why when I look at your family I remember foofighter song..my hero,ur family,s rock!!!!
"Doing math equals…eating prawns" 😂
Seán Earnest was that a yellow cedar swimming into ur trap while it was sinking
Not prawn related but early in the video you can see Rose's wedding ring. I really like it and how it is set so she can wear it while she does things and not knock stones loose in their settings. If you picked it out for her you did a great job.
Very observant, I worked with a jeweller to design the ring for that very purpose!
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY,
LOVE your trap puller!! Brilliant idea! 💡
Also, that strange looking little crab you caught is a squat lobster. Pretty tasty as well 🙂
Young ladies abbie your so smart and hands on learning well done Christina wow same smart a great job all of you are roll models thank you for video
Love all ypur homemade traps/puller...brilliant!!
Got a feeling these great kids are homeschooled. Great video. Plan on trying it this weekend.
U guys are great,, informative. Love watching it.. from manila philippines ..
Another great video! Thanks for sharing your lives with us!
Evaluation is good and unique from any other channels👍
Sixty-three years old, born and raised in Southern California suburbia... first time I went fishing (age 8), was at a fish farm. No surprise, caught a fish with first cast in 20x20 pond... was exciting for me (didn't know better).
Umm... no, didn't need a fishing license.
Don't remember eating the fish, but I remember the guy cleaning it. Weird how memories work.
Dad did some projects around our little cookie-cutter house-- how I got interested in doing the same. Now I'm a hundred times better than he ever was at that. He liked having projects, but I think I'm more passionate about them than he ever was.
Point is: had I been brought up in an environment like in these videos... how much different would my life had been, and now is? I've got more fingers than fishing trips. I can build stuff and I love that, I spent my life in electronics (starting from my time in the US Navy), and I'm proud of that. Just.... something's missing.
Oh, yeah, that's it: these videos fill those gaps.
I sincerely thank you for these. Bless you.
So I came across the channel accidentally. I actually unsubscribed to “homesteady” a A couple of months ago. At the moment I don’t remember the real reason for Unsubscribing. I was watching some other videos and RUclips recommended a video by Homesteady in my feed. But the video was titled for family with five kids homesteading with the channel being Homesteady. I thought to myself , Somebody else is also named Homesteady. Long story short I found your channel and I’m glad I did. I like your humor and lifestyle. I got some great ideas for our Homestead set up. Keep up the good work. Keep having fun and enjoying them kids. Thanks for sharing.
Welcome to the channel! We're glad to have you with us!
Thanks for sharing from the UK, injoyed that
My new favorite channel. love the prawn/shrimp traps.
Congratulations! Priceless times with the kids.
Thanks guys thats the way to raise kids
I like the way you teach the girls. They are going to be extremely competent young women.
You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich.
Beautiful prawns 🍤 make really nice Gumbo wow seafood Feast
The greatest family ever.
The fact they didn't know Forest Gumb made me feel so old!
That creature that stabbed the prawn was John Carpenter's "THE THING".
If there is a Walmart close or another place that has a bakery you may be able to get buckets for free or a lesser price. 🙂 Great video and commentary!
Leann Kennedy what would they get in those buckets? Oil?
@@PD-we8vf frosting, whip cream anything edible that has to do with baking or deli. It might have been pertinent to say where to go ask for them or you might end up in the automotive department. Lol
Ask in the bakery and or the deli department. 🙂👍
R P: Pie filling and pickles come in those buckets also. We used to be able to get 5 gallon empty pickle buckets from our local fast food restaurant.
math is not hard once you understand your gozintas and eagles. man this takes me back to catching fresh water prawn with a light and a net when i was a kid in southern tex near the gulf. i would bring home some monsters lol 2 of them would fill me up. i used traps like yours to catch bait when i didnt want to hall my cast net around with me. every thing about this vid triggers old memories some how thanks.
Was great seeing youl caughin those pawn and sprimps together with your kids and having a great meal with them I wish in my country that most will do that as in SA most people are not really family time together and have a great meal after a hard day's caught
Nice family math class. I remember old times with my mum 😂👍
Now i would just go and cut off the overlapp
.......ingenious, man...........well bloody done chief.......enjoyin' the positivity.......may HIM bless you all...........
You and Dave are hilarious!
Very nice video fun and family oriented God Bless
nice family bonding..god bless all of you...from philiphines

Awesome video. Such a joy to see the whole family working together (aside from the one nap interlude by the one who shall not be named, jking). Grats on the shrimp. prawns and Chinook. The outtakes with your buddy are very funny, as usual. Thank you all for sharing.

Obrigado pelo seu comentário gentil!
Loved the bow picker " wheel of fortune" Genius. awesome.
If you want to catch octopus leave your traps out over night. The best bait I used were shrimp pellets and fish guts, any fish guts. Lead line is a wonderful thing! You might want to put some weights between your traps. Like a brick with holes. It will keep your traps closer to the sea floor.
yall are just to funny and having a great time
ooooo my friend this is very wonderful fishing with the family i love fishing also mainly eating shrimp
Brilliant channel it’s interesting funny and shows how family get on better when working for themselves great content xx
I just saw your video first tume and fell in love with your sweet family. I love seafood that made me to watch your vid but it's your family bounds that made me to hit subscribe button and bell icon, May Allah bless you and keep happy for ever and ever.💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹
