To net that many small fish in such a short time tells me it's a great feeding ground for some very large Bass. Great vid.

I appreciate all that I've learned from your videos and your cautions on responsibility. Thanks for your hard work!

[@jacksoltren9247]

I remember my Dad taking me and my brothers down to the beach in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico in the early 1970's, to pull in a net, similar to this one, but, probably 300 or 400 yards long. The net was cast far out off the beach by two boats and we'd pull it in from shore. It was probably equivalent to strip fishing, as it swept everything in its path to shore. It was part of our local fishing culture and I remember Dad telling us the names of all the different species of marine life hauled to shore. I learned much and Dad was an experienced sailor and Merchant Marine Veteran. This video has triggered a memory which had laid dormant in me for 40 years! I don't know if the practice has been outlawed but, it's cool to see you do this strictly as a last means method of survival. Thanks, bud. I will sub you and continue to watch more of your vids.

[@tomjeffersonwasright2288]

re Jack S You are talking about pulling a beach seine, very different net from a gill net, and still legal in many places.

[@AZ-Patriot]

Was hoping you were going to mention the effectiveness of a gill net at trapping birds. With one that size you can get birds as large as pigeons with it. Much larger and they'll just tear through. But definitely a good source of food when the only other choice is starvation. Great video, Bob.

[@BobHansler]

Did a bit of bird netting when I worked as an Avian Technician shortly after earning my degree in Biology. Useful in field studies and bird banding... and the crossover into survival can as you say be a life saver.

[@thermal1580]

He did at 9:20

I can't tell if he filmed all of these videos in one day, or if he just owns a single shirt

[@BobHansler]

Sounds like a good time. Need to stop and do that from time to time... too much to get done now though. Let the rivers calm and Ill be out on the boat in the river running trout and drop lines.

[@cliffordkelly5327]

Thx Bob, all good stuff to know about Gill Nets !

Good information my friend. I used a net with much larger holes in it when I was a kid. Nice and effective way to catch food :) - Martin

[@jaybee7785]

Very informative, thanks bob

[@donboehner6005]

Bob, I once came across scientist working in the woods. They had a very fine black colored net stretched out and were catching birds. They were doing something to them and then releasing them unharmed. That said, once the gill net is used to catch fish couldn't you stretch the broken net out in the bushed to capture doves and other birds for survival food?

[@NisargChaudhari]

catching birds and/or eggs is illegal. those scientists have permits for catching and studying/banding birds. the net used is usually called a mist-net

[@thequeenbees5864]

You are by far my favorite KZbinr

[@danthompson1m]

Thinking of you today, brother. I hope all is going as well as can be expected with your medical ordeal. You know, you've got a great *voice* for this. Good intonation, good diction... You could put together a demo reel and probably get some work with local ad production companies, doing voiceovers for commercials for tv and radio. Or you could do an awesomeo outdoors-themed radio show, in addition to your youtubing. Just a thought...

[@gaillevine7461]

I have a lot of quail on my property in New Mexico. Unfortunately NO water. Do you have a preferred technique for trapping ground birds such as quail or doves? In a survival situation I'm not sure using my ammo on food will be wise. Thanks! Love your videos.

[@BobHansler]

Birds are a tricky quandary. There are a number of traps that could be used, but the effort and questionable returns make birds such as quail a prey of chance. If you had a gill net you could chop it up into smaller sections and place it along quail runs if surviving. Personally, I would spend my time setting deadfalls and snares that are unlikely to capture a bird... I have in the past and would fashion a few throwing sticks though to have ready as I build and check the traps as the occasional rabbit and quail can be had on occasion, might as well if you are already going to be expending the energy to check traps.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Totally illegal here, but very effective!

[@ladyhawk6999]

Just ordered one on eBay earlier today. Out of curiosity I got on KZbin to check out videos on gill nets. I was wondering what the quality was going to be like. I am planning on getting several more and some trotlines. Of course it will be for WROL because if you fart in the water in Michigan it is illegal.

follow up question since in always excited to see whats in store next. ive heard box fishing in texas is more for sport. have there been any good or bad experiences youve had?

[@BobHansler]

Ehhh, I have mixed emotions. O use a spearpole or have in the past and keep one on hand most days on the boat. I have used a bow a fw times but ended up giving the rig to a friend after a while. I dont mind the sport fishermen shooting the carp and incvasive species, but the gar are suffering from overfishing. The giants are decades old and should be protected more... at least in this area, there wont be any of the old fish left for my grand kids to see.

[@darylmooyoung6414]

This is one of the best channels on KZbin. What do you do for a living and how did you pick up such extensive knowledge?

Formerly a horseback trek guide and for a few years a Biology teacher... I have been many things over the years and have been blessed to have the numerous experiences and opportunities I have had to learn much of what I know first hand. I now make these videos full time and am attempting to get to a point where I can pay the bills with it and continue doing this indefinitely.

[@Adam-xd9ws]

Nice video! I was wondering how you were going to roll that back up right away haha. Makes sense that it's 1 use. They use them all over in the sea here.

[@tomjeffersonwasright2288]

It is not single use. It is fine webbing to be less visible. Skilled hands remove fish without destroying the net, and small tears are repaired with a net needle and twine.

[@BobHansler]

This one is single use. I’ve larger nets that are repairable and reusable...it is not possible with this net.

[@gunsmith19971997]

Tbh if it’s something I’m going to depending on I would want better quality I got one of them before completely junk but does work once after that impossible to reuse so go with a better quality net but this would be better then nothing

Ran an amazing program and spent 6 days out of seven out on the trail far from settlement and civilization. Heavy advocate of the Boy Scouts and anything that had to do with people that shared the love of the outdoors.

Probably going to be boring once you are just waiting in between meals and work in a survival situation. You can make that less boring by line fishing with those minnows that are too small to eat.

[@BobHansler]

It is a thought... but you might be surprised at how much there is to do out there just trying to survive. Time and energy are at a premium.

[@elrichzann]

Do you plant trees for every tree you cut down and use for wood / videos?

I do not cut down many trees. The trees that I ahve lost to drought and to the long horn beetles are being replanted as their trunks finally fall. I manage my foests.

Can you catch those giant gars. I just want to see how big they are.

[@malleusmaleficarum6004]

Crawfish technically are fish, I mean they're shellfish, but they still are fish. They have gills and live and breathe underwater, so although they might not be what you typically think of when you hear the word fish, they technically are fish nevertheless.

[@BobHansler]

As a Biologist... gah, are you trying to break my brain? No man, just no.

[@malleusmaleficarum6004]

@@BobHansler Not at all, I'm just saying that technically they are fish

[@BobHansler]

No man... and coconuts are not “technically” a coca bean.

[@malleusmaleficarum6004]

@@BobHansler I know they're not real fish as most people would define them, they're crustaceans, I only meant tgat they're fish in the sense that they have gills, and they live and breathe under water, and I think you meant that coconuts aren't technically nuts, they're one seeded drupes, although if you play fast and loose with the definitions, you could consider them nuts, but botanists don't. Cocoa or cacao beans are a horse of another color, however, they're completely different.
