Really informative, I realized all I was doing wrong with my practice rig, especially the line part...

[@808bowhunter7]

That was cool!!! Thanks for sharing your tips in making this.

[@EITFM]

thanks good video, exactly what I was lookin for. Was unsure about loading in fishing line orientation.

[@philiphanvy7092]

That's awesome! Great idea!

[@mikegoodlock7821]

Awesome I just made a homemade blowgun this will be something I can add to it. Thank you!

[@kennywilkes6978]

Good stuff. Thanks for the how to

[@k.o.skeeponshooting235]

I been looking into ways of doing this and came across your channel brother. Definitely giving this a try. Subbed you bro great video 👍🏻

[@josephcameron34]

Agreed

[@user-df9ce4nn4m]

After seeing how much Tim Wells is trying to sell the fish hawk for and reel separate this looks pretty decent.

[@matthewd.1805]

I watched the whole video just so I could see how you load the thing. 🤣 I had an idea, but i wasn't sure

[@joezito4512]

Great video thanks brother

[@jamesmceraghan9165]

I been checking out sling bow hunting and fishing looks Awesome 👍😎😁

[@alphalionmentality9550]

Oh bro try some of that beard hair for line . Never ever have I seen beard hair that thick man. Sorta looks Afghan but you are well fed sir. Malnourished the Afghani beard hair doesn’t stand up to yours . Dude you got a new sub here you are definitely cool af and do some cool skitt. And I’m usually not this big of a ball buster but you made me feel comfortable.

[@antonyjoseph7327]

Well explained ❤❤❤

[@creatormalluz7335]

Nice work bro..keep it up..

[@dustinh4175]

You should try a pistol crossbow. Fifty pound tri line and an old spin cast reel zip tied to a $40 pistol crossbow hooked to a cut down $15 fishing arrow works great. I litterally wear camo and walk around in the water and the fish swim right up to you. Super fun i shot 70 carp in one day

[@Dj_jaywalker]

Nice

[@jarodsmith1662]

That was a good videod man im probably guna do the same with mine but the dart flies out with the cone on it so you dont have to take it off to load it.

[@MSSmith1022]

I've been thinking of duing something like this with a slight twist, I am working on a jig to fasten the guides straight to the pipe of my blowgun, and I am looking at hose clamps to attach the reel. I think this will give a sleeker look to a blowgun fishing rig.

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

The main reason I used the rod, was to avoid putting stress on the actual blow gun. I'd rather ruin a $10 Walmart rod than a $90 blow gun.

[@MSSmith1022]

@@TheRealChaseRhodes, I understand not wanting to damage the Tim Wells you got. I am using a pipe I got from Home Depot for my blowgun and I am looking to get a 3D printed mouthpiece, so not to worried about the stress.

[@feraltweed]

That would work for any small game and you would not loose your dart. Even at flying birds

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

I just pictured myself reeling in a rabbit. 🤣

[@ramananatua4469]

Thanks Sir Iaorana from Tahiti

[@anthonyminggia6794]

Make more blowgun videos,nice video by the way!

[@LincolnMoore-iy2lu]

Does anyone know what blow gun that is?

[@johnunderbrink-re6np]

Does it take the line off the reel with it when it shoots. Or do you have to unreel some line first?

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

It takes it with it... as long as I remember to flip the bail open 🤣.

[@djokicmetamora]

I was thinking the same thing, but maybe use a needle and thread the line through the cone.

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

I had that same thought, but if the line broke, or a dart got damaged while I'm out fishing, I didn't want to have to deal with a needle.

[@theupperhook]

Hell yeah did you catch any fish yet?

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

Not yet, haven't had a chance to get out to any water. I'm itching to try it out though.

[@chuckcassel5417]

👍👍

[@bangstickproductions]

Does it not come out of the fish after you shoot it and try to reel ?

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

That was the reasoning behind grinding a "barb" into the head of the dart. But I'll be completely honest with you, I've never actually hit a fish with it to find out 🤣.

[@navagatingthroughthebeasts2908]

👍

[@blackfox3082]

I have the blowgun, but is it sturdy enough? I dont want to waste $80 by bending it on a big carp

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

That's why I left quite a bit if the pole in tact. I didn't wanna accidentally ruin a perfectly good blow gun.

[@evanjack1466]

Fire these darts out of a paintball gun. Even the bamboo skewers are lethal. You’re welcome.

[@chunkerra8647]

Where can I find those darts for a .40?

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

Not sure about .40, but I got mine at Cabela's.

[@chunkerra8647]

@@TheRealChaseRhodes what size do you use? .625?

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

Yeah, mine is .625

[@chunkerra8647]

@@TheRealChaseRhodes thank you. I'll be going to Cabelas.

[@alphalionmentality9550]

Why not separate the reel from the rod cut the rod to length . That’s what I did I tried with the rod handle it was too much . I also found out that one notch on one side of the dart I cut the other end off HARPOON 🤓 then me fish won’t wiggle off my dart because I no longer have a dart I have a harpoon.

[@jimmechanic1965]

Braided line doesn't work well at all on a spinning reel

[@TamponTea]

lol i catch 20+ inch fluke on 10lb braid with a 2500 reel every time i go out. never had a problem. mono sucks to much stretch and has memory. thinking about going with 6-8lb next season to help with line bow in the wind and current.

[@LincolnMoore-iy2lu]

Does anyone know what blow gun that is?

[@TheRealChaseRhodes]

It's a Cold Steel Tim Wells Signature Series. The only difference between it and the cheaper Cold Steel blowgun is It's green and the more ergonomic grip and mouthpiece.
