Fishing HACKs ( To save you money )

[@fishin-impossible2992]

Great video Brother, I can't get enough info stored from what I learned from Your Channel. By far the best channel on KZbin. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait until the next build

I don't know how this guy doesn't have over a million subscribers by now. The best fish'n hack channel on TubeYou!!! 👍👍

[@ignaciorrt]

Lol exactly

[@allsnaggedup7922]

Some of us actually enjoy fishing and if we can do it and save some money then all the better. Thank you @fishinnstuff for your money saving tips

Or maybe Keith can design some glasses that make tackle shops look like candle stores.

[@wazkeating3496]

You win internet comments of truth award!

[@Paull1207]

Dude. This could be one of the best channels on KZbin in my opinion. It’s one of the few I can’t get enough of. I enjoy the heck out of it. You’ve definitely inspired me to do some things I would have never thought of. Appreciate all the knowledge, hacks, and money saving tips. Keep it up!

[@FishinNStuff]

Well maybe one day lol . I sure do appreciate you watching though

[@owenscool112411]

I totally agree Paul. Keith is witty and well spoken and having met him he is a very genuine down to earth dude.

[@Paull1207]

@@owenscool112411 that doesn’t surprise me at all. It’s pretty apparent just from watching his videos that he’s a good dude. My 9 year old son watches with me too. He thinks Keith is hilarious and always wants to build all of his “fishing hacks” 🤣

[@mrz6462]

I completely agree with Paul! This is in my top 3 channels I follow!!!

[@skookumjack]

Loving the plumber tape hack! Definitely have to try that on my vintage reels and rods! Nice one Keith 👍

[@marctheriault]

Awesome hacks as always, and super useful set of 5 that cover all kinds of aspects of skills that people fishing use today, but the coolest thing was you sending folks over to Ted’s page to get the details on his hack. That’s the best example of how to use another person’s stuff I’ve ever seen! You da man!!

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Sir I appreciate it . I want it to help him you know

[@patcolston2901]

That's Awesome !!

[@ratdog3055]

Great hacks again! I have used the tape for quite awhile and never had one come loose. I have one rod that only has two slide rings (no threads) so after I got them as tight on the reel as I could, I wrapped them with gauze tape and they are still hanging in there 14 years later!

[@billmoss5624]

My 7 foot cast net came with instructions to soak in fabric softener before use. Thanks Keith! Another good video.

[@charlieboutin3341]

Really appreciate your work Keith..I will use every one of these hacks! I’ll be fixing reel seats, softening throw net, then making up some surf weights (the price has skyrocketed over the years.😳). Then hopefully I’ll be using your camera setting advice to get some Good pictures of the fish I catch at night, using the rugby rig or along the beach! Thanks a lot buddy! 👍👍🎣✌️

[@matthewkf]

Thanks man I'm a man without two nuts so that trick with the plumbing tape works good

[@LimitedGunnerGM]

Instead of the plumbing tape, I’ve used permatex gasket maker. Works well! It acts as a thread locker and breaks loose easily when needed.

[@dennisjennings5459]

I made a selfie stick to hold my cellphone it fits in my pedal seat hole. I fish a lot by myself works great for taking pictures of the big one. Love your channel keep up the good work

[@Tubeagrutis]

Love it. Keith! You're one of the best fishing channels out here on YT, DIY or pro... Keep creating great content!

[@FishinNStuff]

My brother doesn't fish. But he loves your channel. Keep them algorithms up 👍

[@gregstabryla9945]

I'm just saying, this one is awesome 👍. My Lew's reel seat keeps coming loose. Was ready to super glue it, but I wouldn't be able to take the reel off. Thanks for the advice 😊.

[@jeffbrummette1622]

Your the man…AGAIN! I’ve never used a cast net but the fabric softener hack is brilliant! Keep these videos coming,please!’

[@redelfoutdoors9668]

Small zip tie will keep reel from coming loose and also works as a hook keeper/attaching point to. Another great vid especially the surf weight diy! Thanks

[@rayhall3010]

I'm so glad I'm just catching fish,, and then watching you guys on my phone,

[@psychocafe7641]

The castnet in fabric softener works well. I fish mainly in saltwater and it keeps the net from being stiff and helps open the net up. The one thing I do differently since the first time I soaked mine is that I do not soak the main line anymore. That line was slippery the first few times after soaking and made for fun times pulling in the bait😀 Keep up the good work sir👍

[@FishinNStuff]

Not soaking the main line is really a good tip

[@jjohnston6645]

I'm at 7.5 months PO. Still healing and trying not to lift anything over 20 lbs per Dr's order. Dr says about 1 year my restrictions should be lifted. I'm 59 years old with 3 stage ACDF. I'm mowing grass and hunting and fishing. Thanks for the videos. We need positive stories like this

[@FishinNStuff]

I couldn't agree Sir , thank you so much for watching . I really appreciate it

[@andykjohnsonjohnson7622]

Those are some excellent fishing hacks Buddy 👍🎣. Graeme form T.A fishing, also did a video on ( what us English people ) call . Gripper, brack away leads. For sea Fishing from the shore, so that. When you are reeling back in. The prongs fold back, & don't get snagged 😃.

[@darrenromig4561]

Love your videos. I tried a couple of the hacks and they work great!. Your channel is one of the best fishing hack channels I have seen. I even have my 10 year old son watching you! I am a huge fan and subscriber. I live up near Raleigh and my son and I go fishing a couple times a week. We always look forward to your next video. Keep it up!

I started saving your videos after I watch them so I could watch them again. Not for the fishing hacks, but to inspire me to make better videos. A person can learn a lot from watching your videos about how to make good KZbin videos.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you , I appreciate that a lot . I work hard on em . I wish I could do more of them but I try and keep the quality level the same . While always trying to improve something

[@randystone4903]

Love your hacks and I downloaded a lot of them. I've recently got a bunch of plastic jigs for cheap, but like you said weighted hooks are expensive. Thanks for the hacks! Great seeing you matching up my favorite Ugly Stick rod with an Abu Garcia reel. Been using this combo for decades.

[@jr-a-cat]

Well done Sir . You can do like a friend dose with social media he will post photos of large Steel head trout on anther creek than we plain to fish the day before . For the rod wrap I like to use shrink wrap

I use a velcro cable tie to back up my reel seat nut. Get hematite beads for the bead for the rugby rigs.

[@lcswartz49]

Hey Billy, I found a headlamp LED rechargeable with a USB plug lightweight. It’s gotta be molded as wide as your forehead. It also has a light on the side just if you want a little bit of light to for $27 from Amazon is the same ones that you see advertised on TikTok for $49 for one I bought several of them work great they’re waterproof lightweight very lightweight and I think it be a good investment for you for catfish or working around the shop it is also made from silicone rubber The name of this light is called MOLA ER headlamp and has a very high rating also for $27 and some change you can’t beat it. I think you’ll be very pleased with it. Let me know how you like it I got it from Amazon.

[@adwhite804]

The plumbers tape works for braid backing as well. Rather than greasy,gummy electrical tape. My grand dad used thin layer moleskin back in the day with braid and that stuff hardly ever came off. Great video sir! Thanks

[@FishinNStuff]

That's a great idea too . I appreciate you watching brother

[@davidcatlette9697]

This was one of the most informative videos about filming I have ever seen ! That’s cool 😎

[@chrisguice139]

When I fish for king mackerel off the end of a pier I use the claw sinker on my anchor rod that I use for what they call trolley rig it helps hold really good and you can run your bait out and wait for the bad boy to come hit

[@guyh.4553]

FYI Keith about the plumbers tape. You want to wrap the tape opposite direction to the way you tighten down the seat, just like with pipe fittings. Reason being is that 1) It's less likely to come undone, and 2) The tape locks in better. This is the way I was taught and it works great. For your light, instead of using a higher wattage bulb like 60 or 100 watt bulb use a 40 watt bulb. Also use soft white vs daylight bulbs because, obviously, it's a softer white light

[@mstrickk1]

I do the fabric softener trick. Problem is the first few throws the bait usually dies quick. After 3 or 4 throws it's fine. After another 10 throws, it's back to being rough rope and mono. Maybe it's because of the salt, I don't know.

[@markreeves2491]

Thanks for the phone video tips, Keith ! That hack is AWESOME !!! 👍👍

[@marsbotbyl159]

I have a rod seat that after cranking it down many times it's stripped. Thanks for the Teflon plumber tape tip.

It's nice to be back on KZbin. I'm the one that texted back and forth with you about my commercial fishing career years ago. I spoke of the boat with the two and a half foot diameter prop. It was a mine sweeper. From Vietnam era. We were harvesting grass shrimp. We supplied bait shops up and down the West Coast. You may remember my name from the past. Have a nice day hope all is going well for you.

nice vid mate, I have made those claw type sinkers for surf fishing just by drilling a small hole through the bottom of the sinker and push the wire through and bend, very easy and super-fast to make.

For hack number 2, You can also just make a jika rig as it's very similar in action. Just clip in a bass sinker and a ewg hook, done. The hook will stay free swinging too.

On your claw sinker if you drill a bigger hole put your wires in then seal the hole from the bottom with a small ball of plumbers putty it will withstand the heat of the lead I've used it many times when pouring lead joints on cast iron when cool remove the putty you can reuse the putty just mix with new putty to refresh
