As long as your trying your not failing, better than not trying at all. Great video sir.

[@ranchdrezzing]

Best way to get leeches is by going knee deep in the water waiting 10 mins and then just pick them off your legs 😂

[@MrMoosekiller31]

Sounds the exact same up here in Northern Ontario Canada was out last night walleye opens next Sat then frogs and geese and cranes squawking gonna go toss a few out tonight mosquitoes are just starting been cold here still at night drops to near zero at night still high teens during the day that's around 60degrees to 70 in the sun good luck hope I get some leeches are best bought by the pound get way more

[@danschoemann2305]

It seemed like you could have been losing leeches while pulling back. The pie tin worked the best. Good video, I want to try this.

[@drdavewi]

Thanks for the video. I had no idea how one would trap leeches.

[@basketfish5484]

Love keep it up

[@genesiedenburg9798]

Talk to the old timers, the can help you catch bait, I learned alot from a guy that was 85 years young, they lived it. Great Channel 👍.

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

Thanks for the idea Gene!

[@ianj.perreault5392]

A trap right at shore would of been a good try, maybe there hiding in them weeds along the shoreline! Just a suggestion, but I like your videos, good content!:)

[@pettyfogger2305]

Absolutely! I would expect leeches way out where the big fish live would be suicidal.😮

[@joanninda255]

Awe man still so cool at least you tried and the sounds are so cool! Definitely enjoyed the video!

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!

[@MrMoosekiller31]

An otter ate mine last year lol

[@JustinHallowesOutdoors]

awsome. the pie 🥧 pan was the most effective it stays closed. I might try that , folsom a big roast pan in half. great idea

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

You bet exactly..!

[@karsniafarms]

Tin coffee cans work the best

[@pikelakekenny1546]

Yes try magnet fishing that would be cool

[@zmontagne]

I've had good luck using a plastic coffee can with a bunch of holes drilled in it. Add a rock for weight and whatever you have for bait.

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

Thanks I'll Try that!

[@msacco175]

Great vid. Pie tin best

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@andystampfli9127]

Cutting flashing, use a box cutter. Score a line hard enough to scratch it good. Bend it and it will break on the line 👍

[@andystampfli9127]

Also a bait holder. Figure out how to keep bait in the trap

[@robclark1215]

Definitely like the pie tins better. 👍👍😎😎

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

Me too! Will have to get more!

[@geoffwojnowski7942]

Wouldn't the turtles try to get into those and possibly drag them away? Lol

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

Hasn’t been an issue at all

[@westonstruiksma6334]

9:00 was that a wood tick

[@Wisconsin_Fisherman]

I think fuzz from my go pro straps

[@dst6619]

Interesting, just not very productive for you 🤔
