Thanks for sharing this fun video.

So basically its like juggin. Instead of milk jugs & coke bottles. Nice. This one is better cause you have something that holds your hook when you wrap it up. Gonna do this w/my boys. Thanks

Which is illegal in my state ...only land lines...with ID tags.

[@datfunnyadventures1312]

@michaelhernandez3041 I hate that. We use limb lines also. Whatever it takes. Love getting the kids involved

[@FreezyAbitKT7A]

You grab that noodle boy.

[@jrdean80]

Fly swater is .50,noddle u say .88,hook,line,swivel,weight=1.50,a total of $2.88 roughly

[@bryannakvinda8411]

We bend wire hangers into small t with hook squeezed small enough to go through t on opposite end

[@datfunnyadventures1312]

Sounds like a great idea. Do you have a picture?

[@saucebox11]

id really like to know what that stringer thing is, not having any luck searching for it

[@casper3130]

I just cut the noodles about a foot, open up a clothes hanger, fold it in half, run the ends of the clothes hanger up into the noodle then fold the ends over the top of the noodle. This creates a closed end at the opposite end of the noodle to tie my line adding a weight and hook. When a fish is on the noodle stands straight up unless it goes to the shore. In my State you can only put out 25 per licensed person. I have mine stuffed in 5 gallon buckets pull them out one at a time, pull the hook out of the noodle, bait it, throw it in the water and the weight unwraps the line. I throw mine out then go fish and watch for one to pop up or go to the shore before I check them. Those things have caught me some fish from time to time when I haven't caught anything. You're right about one thing my grand kids love just going out to noodle for fish.

[@seabeechief99]

This qualifies as a "fish trap"? Right? According to DNR guidelines it's effectively the same thing as a jug trap. Right?

[@datfunnyadventures1312]

@seabeechief99 no, it’s more like a jug line.

[@johnfitz8167]

I use 20 once coke bottles,with crack filler foam inside, twenty four fit in a coke crate ,biggest cat I ever caught on one 54 pounds.

[@datfunnyadventures1312]

That is a great idea. Thanks for sharing

[@alfredliggins8510]

How can I make this a slip pool noodle bobber?

[@daynemassey]

How long, or deep, do you like your line to be?

[@datfunnyadventures1312]

We use ours on a creek that feeds a lake. I have them set at about 4 feet deep and it works great for us. Best of luck

[@Cutter-jx3xj]

Be careful using them in Texas. Pay attention to the laws

[@alfredliggins8510]

How to rig this to your fishing pole?

[@datfunnyadventures1312]

My grandkids and I make these. They love using them. They catch fish. Use it just like any other jug design. Happy fishing

[@johnnythomas5463]

How big is the biggest fish you caught with one of them. Thanks

[@datfunnyadventures1312]

We catch anything up to about 10 lbs is about the biggest I remember. My grandkids love them. Thanks for watching

[@seabeechief99]

@@datfunnyadventures1312 I have a question: is it the same thing as a jug trap? Do you have to tag them?

[@SingleDadLyfe]

I was gonna say 🐂 💩 because of the price.....but then I realized this was filmed when Trump was president. FBJ

[@Skiffdan]

Not sure I understand the point of the flyswatter. Not sold on that “cinch” knot either (I think you meant Clinch). More of an attempt at a snell knot. Look it up so you can see what you are doing wrong and then you can snell the hook properly. You kinda combined a snell with a clinch. Enjoyed watching though. Happy fishing.

[@Skiffdan]

Also, when snelling a hook properly you don’t even use the loop on the hook unless it’s bent on an angle which is a hook designed to be snelled. Look up snelling and practice. It’s a good skill to acquire. Also learn the Perfection Loop which is the proper loop to use with snelling to make your own leader hooks.

[@user-hq8bv1qi5p]

That was the dumist thang I have seen

[@datfunnyadventures1312]

Well Dave it’s cheap, easy and catches fish. My grandkids love making them so we will just keep on fishing and pray that whatever you choose to use works as well. Thanks for watching

[@psychonaut3507]

The dumist thang I'm seeing is your spelling and attitude lmao

[@emeraldfox7175]

This is the worse design ive seen,been jug fishing over 30s year's

[@seabeechief99]

So, essentially this is a fish trap, kinda dealio, right?

[@MarkWilliams-lx9vy]

Everyone to their own likes. What works for one may not work others.

[@c4mailmanpb]

Excellent video and idea. Thank you.

[@datfunnyadventures1312]
