If you are about to comment that there's an easier method to trap them, don't bother, I already knew all the methods before I made this video and made it anyway. There's more than one way to skin a cat.
No, my objective is to tame the cat not skin it!!! Anyways your method here looks amazing and I see nothing wrong with it, bout to go try it myself today probably.
No, thats a ridiculous thing to say lol. Why else watch unless you are going to try them or get ideas from them. No offense to him but they are short and informative but not what I would watch for entertainment. You are a rare breed lol. Long answer short...no
Mind. Blown. That's the simplest way to lower a foundation on a raft, that I've ever seen!!! No more multi steps with foundations and pillars... the video was worth it just for that! And I love the fish scooper too!
Thanks for your build videos, i have learned a lot of tricks from you. It's nice to see someone finally use that method to set a foundation at deck level on a raft. This works on platform saddles as well but it works out a bit differently. I have been doing it this way since about the time scorched earth dropped. To get a square foundation dead center i set a fence foundation longitudinally covering the mast hole with one leg of the foundation at the front edge of the deck. Then snap another fence foundation at a 90 degree angle then snap a pillar to the end of that, remove fence foundations and a square foundation will snap to the floating pillar at deck level. From there i usually build a 3x5 raft base for early game.
So I copied this exactly and I found two things: 1. The parts list shows two foundations but if you watch the video and try to build it yourself you will need three, two for the top and one underneath. 2. It does not seem to work for scooping, if you try to push a fish into the catcher it will phase through the stairs and end up under the boat, the best way I found to use this was for luring piranhas as they will swim up the stairs instead having to be pushed like the passive fish. It works after a fashion just not exactly as shown, though that may be the result of some update or another as it has been 6 months since this video was published. Thank you for the design.
Ye, I'm aware that I made a mistake on the foundation count. It does work for scooping, you just have to be gentle and let the fish do the work. You can't scoop them if they are swimming away but can if they are facing you, it's kinda weird but you get used to it.
I had this idea, but your implementation is of course soooooo much better. Man, i know you hear this a lit, but thank you. I have used so many tricks that you have taught me, truly appreciate everything you do.
Omg! All that wasted time on trying to chase fish into a corner and hoping they stay there long enough to trap, thank you once again Mr FatDog for another decent build!
I just net them, so easy and gives plenty of time to place a basket and trap them. I'm not sure though if it works on officials too, and it doesn't always work with the first projectile^^ lol I love the intro with the eyes xD
Very nice! I usually just use a tent though. Slap the tent down on a Coel and place the basket in the entrance partially sticking out, then close the tent. Then trap the fish. I get Coel easy like that. Probably not a good idea for Piranhas though, haven't tried that lol
I realize this is an old video, but in trying this out right now, s+ versions of these pieces don't allow for the correct snap points on the raft, in case anyone else needs this.
Arkpoc is always laggy; making this trap harder to use. Anytime you try to make small fine adjustments while driving the boat (to stay on the fish), you rubber band backwards, which loses the fish. It’s for this reason, I prefer the nooblet’s mega piranha method. Should you be on a less laggy server, this is perfect for getting those 1.5x fish for your perfect tame shadow mane. Thank you for sharing cap!
@@captainfatdog My subject, Raynald of chatilion, is in need of your help. He’s grown frustrated with a project I have given him and requests - no - begs for your help in particular. With the haste of god please respond.
@@captainfatdog ayo ma niqqa raynald needs you bruh. Like fr he the key to freeing the streets. I got niqqas dying out there so please help him mane. Aight Tyrone out
Genius Probably still prefer my method of dropping a tent on them then trapping, not sure if that works on official though? Got a couple of cryo fridges full of x2. O and bigger all trapped on Ab between where the river drops through the hole in the cave and where spinos start spawning, easy fishing
Thanks. If you are specifically after 2.0+ that's fair enough. I think this is better suited to getting lots of fish quickly without using cryos. Not sure if tents work on official, I'll have to try that.
Thought I was the only genius to come up with the tent idea. I meant to send it to nooblets after his first video on it. Works great imo. My base location has at least 1-2 high quality fish spawn right below it, all in one spot, that's relatively shallow. Kill the bad ones, tent the good ones and the next time you load back into base there's a fresh spawn. Let me know if you're interested in coordinates, but I'm sure there's plenty of similar spots
Or… or you can just use a cage to place over fish and lay fish trap beside the cage, and pick up the trap with the fish and your done. In PVP you don’t always have the time to build something like this. I’ve use the method I mentioned for a while now.
Hello there i love ur thinking off doing something to help catch fish!! I also have another ideia for catch fish is having a cage, honey and fish basket. Just place the cage near fish u want, then send the honey into the trap close the gate and the fish will try to catch the honey but they can’t and stay froze outside the cage just put the basket near the fish and done!! But ur way is better to catch fish in rockwell garden bc off the carniverous dinos witch is very good thinking but i have a question? How do u put railing in stair like u did in raft bc in console i tryed to do that but with no success?
Thanks. Once you've got the raft built I would argue that there is no quicker way to catch fish. Especially considering the fish basket pre-initializes, meaning there's no waiting around. Railings on stairs does work on console.
You are intelligent my friend id like to meet you, and trust me you'd like to vise versa as well... I really like that invention its more about how fun it is to use the mind to create something intriguing. I really like this you did a fantastic job. Continue to use your mind to create constructs within the confounds of your minds workshop with all the collective intel that you have gathered, and experienced. You truly know the inner workings of the imagination and the power within. The ability to create constructs with pure imagination is a truly wonderous technique. [Apply this skill in anything you encounter]
Is there a scoop like this that works for a megalodon or basiliosaurous sitting near the surface? Or does this work? I have a group of like 5 megas stuck in a tidal pool that can escape but for some reason aren't so I'm hoping to scoop up one or two to help make taming one easier.
@@sampexton8054 I've seen just about every taming video in existence, but my previous comment still applies, I haven't come up with anything that I feel is worthy of a video yet.

Best thing I just got from this video. Just did it the old way 2 days ago.
The trapping for me is just a bonus. The creativeness of your traps is the best part for me! I'm now planning to tame a Shadowmane.
Pretty cool idea! Instead of running after the fish, just steal them straight out of the water! 😂
A good build starts with a fence foundation 😅. So glad to see another vid. Made me pretty happy.
Haha, yup!
@@captainfatdog can you make shadowmane trap and taming video please? I want to know your genius ways
@@grievingstereo8527 When I come up with something genius I will 😅

This is Genius..
Congratulations...
You mught have changed fishing in ark, forever..
Aaawwwwww... Look at you with all your new little fish buddies!
Very clever. Always amazing.
He has done it again! thanks for all the build testing! My bro and I usde your crystal wyvern trap and it worked flawlessly
That's great to hear, thanks.
Finally a viable way to get shadowma- I mean fish pets. Yes, this trap won't be abused just to get food for a single. . . Axolotl-Lion.
😄
The internal machinations of your mind are an enigma. Hot damn these videos are amazing
Literally liked comment and subscribe because of this video. Most well thought out trap I’ve ever seen. You are a genius bud.

Love this trap concept! Gonna try later on me game! Thanks for making it!
fatdog thank you so much man, your video allways giving a nice tricks to do stuff in ark easier, i pray for your success man
Omg! All that wasted time on trying to chase fish into a corner and hoping they stay there long enough to trap, thank you once again Mr FatDog for another decent build!

lol I love the intro with the eyes xD
Hmm, sounds like it would get expensive.
Late to Gen 2, but always glad for your ideas!
I’ve never been so hyped to see someone post a video
You're doing God's work tbh
Now i just need some more boats and i’ll have a perfect titano trap 😃
Very nice! I usually just use a tent though. Slap the tent down on a Coel and place the basket in the entrance partially sticking out, then close the tent. Then trap the fish. I get Coel easy like that. Probably not a good idea for Piranhas though, haven't tried that lol
Aye, more than one way to skin a cat.
No problem, hope it works well for you!
i do it but with a cage instead
I realize this is an old video, but in trying this out right now, s+ versions of these pieces don't allow for the correct snap points on the raft, in case anyone else needs this.
Lovely video, and relevant trap. Good as always.

Just trap fish on the green side in the shallow water and cryo them, easy peasey.

@@captainfatdog ooohhh really thats good thx captian and keep the good work!! Yh my ideia is solo for the eden garden not to rockwell garden.
Captain its me or we need to make the raft a little larger to trap the fish, some of the largers fish can escape the trap?
@@theartofgames1307 Escape how?
@@captainfatdog if the fish has 2.3 or higher they can escape!!
Gute Idee. Danke 🥰
Just wondering could you replace the stone stuff with wood for price sake if you’re in the eden biome
Yes, but stone really isn't much harder to get.
@@captainfatdog update: wood worked and I. Currently trying to get a shadowmane, which I’m going to hate even more than amarga taming
@@nootnewt7769 Ye, I worked on a trap but never perfected it. Will probably go back to it in a couple of months.
Awesome idea!
Amazing I subscribed.
Thank you!
To do this without a trap and make it even easier what you need is 1 wooden cage and pick it up and replace it on a fish
That only works with no-clip
what if the spino or kapro or whatever else is in the water goes in front of you? will the walls still help?
Bring it on!
Você é um gênio, muito obrigado
update: u can use 3 billboard to trap maewing
The survivor looks like Simon from Neebs gaming lol
