    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!!

    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.

    I have a store trap rigged up with pieces of a clothes hanger to hold the bacon. I live in OKC so im not about to leave them out over night. But after 30-45 minutes, most of the time, I'll have 7-15 small sunfish for bait.

    You can always put a small hole on both sides of the middle of your home made traps and then use a stick or a tent peg to hold them in place.

  • @ghostwriter1869
    @ghostwriter1869 2 года назад

    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 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...

    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
