Coarse Fishing

[@fugawi24]

Cool video! When I was a kid, my dad and I would gather a grocery bag full of those galls and use the larvae in them for ice fishing, a lot cheaper than wax worms, and they worked just as good.

Great kit!! Suggestion...when fishing from the bank with a stick-pole. Get down as low as you can or behind cover, as the fisheees can see you. Pumped up dogeees dont help either :)

[@riverrockproductions]

Great stuff!

[@rustymartell1743]

Great vids and concept. I'm wondering? The fish were there, but they didn't like your bait. Is there anyway that you can "fly fish" in the 18th century period. I ask that because I'm from Maine, and I can't tell you how many times I've been to a spot where the fish are jumping, and simply won't bite a worm! Obviously, that's not what they were feeding on. Just wondering. Peace.

Go to the American fly fishing museums website and go to the fly pattern section and look for the name "Dame Julianna Burner" and those are the patterns they used in the 17th and 18th century and are easy enough to make without a lot of gear. And to cast the fly I just use a very flexible cane pole with a 8 foot section of bankline with a loop in the end and then a 3 foot piece of leader material such as mono or small braided line.

After watching your video on horse hair fishing line , I made my self about 14 ft of line, mine is made out of brown horse hair because my horse is brown, , it amazes me how little horse hair is used in bushcrafting, of course most people aren't around horse very much anymore, but in the day horses would have been a major resource

Hi Steve, Great job as always, where did you get that extra deep tin for the tackle? I gave a much thinner one and would love to get a deep one. Thanks Scott
