GAME CHANGER /BEST DROWNER SETUP

[@lisaluke8253]

Nice to see u back j

[@royzeller9413]

Yep wondering how fiberglass holds up. Fiberglass slivers suck

[@alaskajohn5695]

Love IT, Good-Man, Thank You…

[@timothyrothrock4173]

Thanks J

[@frez777]

I just got two brand new MB-750's and some Hagz drowner slides, I'm on the hunt now, never caught a beaver in my life.

[@TalksWithRyan]

Owens Corning makes a fiberglass rebar now same sizes abs price as rebar but they swear by it that it has like triple the breaking strength and they’re hot pink lol those you got would be ideal through set up ready to go and probably not bad shipping since they’re lighter.

[@johnbsys1846]

Brother me and my neighbor done tried them 3 years ago any nick or teeth bites causes splinters i have had to get 2 large splinters out of my hands i went to lap chains they are the best ive used over rebar and fiberglass youll see .

[@pyrobrian3654]

My buddy meet you at the conference.

[@garystoner9212]

Could you use your earth tool to drive in the wire

[@frankkelly6016]

Bro, those fiberglass stake is really a great idea, except that after a few traps slide down & they get banged around ... fiberglass splinters really easy & you better be wearing leather glove to handle them ! Now I have to tell you about your snaring idea, been used for many many years ! I just use my wolf anger stake n pound the wire in ! Really that simple ! lol I guess that comes in time & experience ! ⚓😉👍🇺🇸 Another good video though ! Keep up the good work

[@firemedic10353]

ya beat me to it, I was watching them and saying "ooooooh the splinters after two or three catches"

[@davetoms63]

where do you get the 10 foot fiberglass rods?

[@python778]

Anyone else get flashbacks to fiberglass tent poles that snap easily? Interesting though, hope they work out for you!!

[@randymyers5086]

They either break or you get a piece in your hand when they start peeling.

[@raysoulsby4540]

These poles won’t snap like the old fiberglass ones for tents. I’ve been using them the last two years. Even when it’s freezing outside they are still flexible

[@jacobartinger6480]

what is the length of the rods, and where do you buy them from??

[@nathenfarmer5625]

What the website for the fiber glass pole .

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

In description

[@nathenfarmer5625]

Im a dumb ass thanks

[@BL-vs5zf]

I always use a wolf fang driver to put in snare supports it works pretty good

[@EngeleTrapping]

I really like the idea of the drown stakes. It will be interesting to see how they hold up.

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

He says ten year warranty on them

[@BLUEGRASSTRAPPER]

I'm don't do much water trapping yet but if I ever get in to water trapping I know what to use now Thanks for sharing 👍

[@tubbyguyoutdoors]

Looks like a good system J ! Thanks for sharing

[@garydowns7425]

Good to have another video!!!! Can’t wait for season to start!!!!

[@williambryson1121]

Where those 8 ft rods or 10 and where did you get the rods

[@lonniechartrand]

I have used my earth anchor driver to set snare support wires for two years now. I thought everyone did.

[@hunt_trap_fish]

It’s CRAZY how much / many different “hot tips” there are for trapping

[@jacksonstroup3941]

👍👍

[@jasongalbraith4079]

Those are sweet. Love the new drowneding rod's

[@randallrbaker5030]

Thanks great idea we have some Amish close by that deals in fiberglass. I’ll be checking tomorrow 😎

[@lonniechartrand]

Now that the season is over I was wondering if you got to use this new system much. From this year's videos it looked like you were still using rebar. I did not know if these were working for you or not.

[@larryburnell7913]

When your beaver is at the bottom of the fiberglass drowning rod, what keeps it from sliding off of the end of the rod when you are pulling it in when you go to reset or pull the trap? Also 1 fiberglass splinter in your hand and you might not think that they are so neat, and all trappers think that they can be extra careful with their equipment, but think about it, if you are using your equipment hard it still tends to get banged up a little bit, lets see how they hold up a few hard worked seasons down the road!

[@floydallen9885]

J3 outdoors really has their shit together.

[@MichaelBrown-Tator]

A junk flat head screwdriver works pretty good for putting in your snare support. Just put a notch in the middle of it and your golden.

[@Dunlap-uj5zl]

👍

[@masonshafer811]

Man those are gonna be great this year but next year your hand are gonna be hating love

[@J3Outdoorz]

These rods have a 10yr warranty against splinters, cracking, etc. ... I have some I have used for over 12 years, no issues.

[@BoxieOutdoors]

Great idea with the cable support. If you have a wolf fang driver you already have the tool with the slot cut into it. I may have to look into the fiberglass downer's. They probably are light enough even to carry into the swamp and do away with the slide cables and worrying where to get heavy rocks for the burlap bags

[@craftgrow]

Nice good to go

[@billharris3335]

Do you think the fiberglass will start degrading and becoming splintering issue, the ones I use as driveway markers start stabbing me after a year or two.

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

He says 10 year warranty for cracks and splinters

[@billharris3335]

Great fiberglass splinter are almost invisible so small but MIGHTY! Lol hope these work out perfectly for you!

[@itsjustkj41]

Can’t a beaver 🦫 chew thru it?

[@linklesstennessee2078]

Good information TJ I bought a red man snare tool about 3 year ago just a notch in a piece of cold roll lol it but they definitely work good especially in a field where trails are at 30 seconds you got a snare support

[@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing]

Man that’s two great ideas I wish I’d a came up with lol. Great job showing them 🙂👏👏👍

[@twodogsyyc6729]

Absolutely awesome invention!!! Fukn fiberglass rods look amazing. Shoulder is gonna luv those. Thanks for showing them to us.

[@JohnnyRingo406Trapper]

Curious if those drowning rods give off slivers like the fiberglass rebar we use for concrete???

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

He says ten year warranty if any splinters or cracking

[@williamwheaton8614]

Good too see J back puttin out some content! Looking forward to the season. Got a farm that has a yodel dog problem really bad, wish I could get y’all to one to central Illinois for a weekend! Lol

[@timetable620]

Is the fiberglass rebar strong enough if you put a metal cap on the top to use them as stakes as well

[@PondamnsOutdoors]

That's pretty slick. Saves on the sore tired feet.

[@Gbridges1000]

Great tips from Trap J!

[@lesbosma4813]

Rods are awesome I’ll buy some of your rerod setups if your getting rid of them 😀

[@davidhamilton9106]

Thanks Trapper

[@doitalloutdoors648]

I've watched some of your past videos. Do you board your furs or just skin them and freeze them and just sell them the way they are.

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

I sell mostly green I board my muskrats

[@doitalloutdoors648]

Thank you. And were im at trapping season is 2 weeks away. Can't wait. I will probably do the same fur process this year too.

[@billc3405]

Brilliant idea with your snare hanger

[@RaymondWilliams902]

Great idea but what is the price difference and how long will the fiber rods last in the weather

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

I’ll let you know as we put em to use

[@J3Outdoorz]

MFG warranty for 10 yrs

[@floydlenz2280]

Good lookin stuff J.. Thanks for sharing.

[@everythingoutdoorsmichigan2052]

Love the wire for cable restraint hack I will be using that this year for sure

[@donweekly352]

I made a rebar thing a couple years ago like you did , a presonmight be able to use his wolf thing driver now

[@jeepfamoverland]

Heck yeah man!!! Pumped that you are uploading more frequently again!

[@larrymay8449]

The only problem I see with the fiberglass is dealing with a hard bottom in the lake/pond. It might be too flexible.

[@huntnfishnuts5880]

Really like the Hagz gear, I got the brackets, bait clips, and 3/8 fiberglass for muskrat, I’m looking forward to using it in a few weeks.

[@danielmastin3606]

Really like the Rods, so much lighter

[@jack0903]

I rather have rebar .

[@randymyers5086]

You can use the pig tail wire support on your steak in Missouri. When I was certified in Missouri the very first year they started Cable restraints that's what the taught us to use. I've caught 100's and never has one hung up.

[@pensnut08]

I gave you a like for NOT saying "drownder".

[@FreeCanadian76]

That's SOOO cool!

[@danieldavis6908]

That snare set up is a time saver if only if I new 48 years ago j 🤔👍

[@luckytrapper7656]

There is an actual tool for anchoring the snare support wire. It's call a Redman snare tool I believe. Dakota snares sell them. I do like the fiberglass rods. Like you said it will make it so much easier for trapping beaver. You will also be able to use them fiberglass rods for muskrat trapping in deeper water with the Hags bracket also. I could only find 4 ft rods before.

[@aarontoddadventures3817]

Sweet set up for sure.

[@claytonmiller8865]

How long are the fiberglass rods? Gonna get some for myself, made some rebar ones last year and walked a mile with 3 of them, thought I was gonna die lol 10 foot 1/2 in rebar with ts-85s are not light

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

These are 8 foot

[@bakinne]

Have you successfully used the 1/2 fiberglass rods with beaver( How did they work? Any break? Did you ditch the rebar rods or go back? Any suggestions on length and where to get them for the best deal?

[@bsoutdoors5895]

Give a review at the end of the year how the fiberglass holds up. I use it for muskrat trapping but don't have 30# + beavers wearing on it. If it works I'm definently switching over.

[@HardCoreCanuck]

sold me on em thanks brother cheers

[@streeterboyzoutdoors]

Right On that's badass, was on the Hagz sight he's got where you can get set of 3 package deal rods, downers, and the end cap things, shipping might be a bitch but that's what I'm goin start out with I believe. Peace Brotha Tight Chains.

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

He says 10 year warranty from splinters or cracking

[@jesseteick891]

Hi trapper j. Are the beaver going to chew up the fiberglass?

[@tracyproctor3344]

Pretty nice setup. Could you use your wolffang driver to drive the wire? Less stuff to carry

[@rebelbeagle64]

Awesome got some of them drowers my self

[@WestTennessee]

Awesome product! 👍🏻😎

[@hunt_trap_fish]

I bought the drowner rods end and stops, but I bought black rods from another provider. DO NOT OVER PEEN the ends - it makes it WAY harder to get the traps on :-) ask me how I know… but the fiberglass is f**kin AWESOME

[@j.j.clingman4083]

That’s a pretty cool set up for sure!! I haven’t seen that set up yet until you showing it!!! I absolutely love beaver trapping and that’s probably what I’m best at!! I will have to give those drownding rods a try for sure especially how light they are!! That is why I never went with the rebar Drownding rods because of how heavy they are!!

[@ryanwalsh2995]

I kinda like a 10' or 12' rod tho and those are hard to find and not very cheap that's for sure hagz builds that whole system? Are they 5/8" or 1/2"?

[@spencerspears7461]

1/2”. 8’ rods from what I’ve found though.

[@michaelmount76]

Cool setup. But will the beaver be able to bite threw the fiberglass?

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

Dunlap has been using this for years I don’t think he’s ever had a problem

[@walkeroutdoors7158]

Just wondering how durable the fiberglass rods will be with the slider sliding down the pulling back up for resets and big beaver pulling against them. Looking forward to see how they work and hold up for ya this season or a couple of seasons

[@matthewrice9665]

Done

[@gordonlewallen9220]

No sun here yet!

[@nevrbluffs]

Never trapped beaver, won't that critter either break the fiber glass or just pull it off the end at the bottom??

[@nevrbluffs]

Ok i did see the addition you put on the drowner to stop the trap from coming off. Nice that it will much lighter for you. Looking forward to see how these work for you.

[@nathanmcclellan6851]

Do you get the opportunity to road trap when you are in Iowa?

[@TrapperJOutdoors]

I’m not much of a long road trapper anymore

[@lancerosencrans5485]

Great video man

[@Boogieshoes-s9o]

Guy could engrave your name on the top end for proof of ownership also just an idea of thought

[@spencerspears7461]

Only 6 foot of drowning space with 8 foot rods. That’s my only concern. Pretty cool though.

[@iceman12966]

It’s an awful dam thing us trappers don’t have to worry about the animals seeing our traps it’s the dam useless people in the world with nothing better to do!!! J keep up the good work man always a blast to watch your vids, gotta a double otter catch yesterday, sweet as hell wicked day!! Take care nny.

[@michaelenglish8004]

So simple a caveman can do it ! 😂😭😂 Thanks for sharing.. Hoping fiberglass rods work..

[@bfd1565]

You won't be grabbing those fiberglass drowning rods like that in 6 months without getting thousands of micro fiberglass slivers in your palms and finger would be my best guess.
