Trapping and Crayfish Boil -Catch n Cook- Trap CRAWDADS

[@BobHansler]

Hey Group, This is a bit off the primitive survival path, but we thought we would do some early trapping to start the season out. The Survival vids are in the works as well as prep for the Wooded Beardsman's arrival in early May. Get ready. Bre has roughly a month left before she heads to a BSA High Adventure Camp as staff for the summer. Not sure we'll have time for any more collab vids with her until late July. We appreciate all of the support and encouragement that she has received and I wanted to express my sincere thankfulness as a percentage of the revenue that these collab vids make go directly to Bre's college fund. Without this amazing KZbin community and my Patreons, it would not be as possible. We're filming every day now, growing s jungle out there. Much more to come. -until Next Time, Bob Hansler

My daughter.

[@matthewhendrickson8686]

Well I hope you all have fun at your daughter's camp and I love the videos that you all do I think they're awesome I mean I really learned a lot cuz of you at this video right here made me hungry thank you

[@citizen1114]

At first, I thought it was so cool that your dog was watching your every move because I had a pup/companion that did the same thing...always looking for a queue as to what we were going to do next. Then I paid closer attention and Bob, your dog looks bummed out watching you pour that food into the crawdad traps. I hope he got a nice meaty treat when you all got home.

[@BobHansler]

He just can't understand why his humans throw good food in the water. He helps clean spilled dog food when baiting traps a few times a week. He's beyond spoiled.

[@xXAngelmlXx]

That dog is something special. One of those dogs that are always watching your back. No hit man will serve you as well as these kind of dogs. Please Take good care of him.

[@albertacosta657]

Pretty sure he feeds him kibble and table food so no he doesn't take good care of Huck.

Son.. your parents raised a good man! I am old now but in my youth I was an avid outdoorsman (as they call us) I prefered to live in the woods rather than spend the weekend drunk in a bar in mogadishu (as we used to say) It was grand that I found your site.. To remember all the crawdads eaten and all the snakes caught over my youth. all the endless summer days fishing in the river or swimming in the ole swimming hole.. and the big rope swing into the river.. The three day hikes through the woods of Oregon, all the old settlement buildings and foundations I found deep in the woods..The mine explored... Dang... you have made this broken old many young again.. even if it was only a short time... and for that I thank you...

[@mglennon5535]

When I was a kid..... 40 some-old-years ago, we were camping in Missouri on a small tail water. At midnight we went out, flash lights and poker sticks in hand and caught pounds and pounds of crawfish the size of lobsters. A boil followed and I was hooked. Thanks for a walk down memory lane. Just about a month ago, I took my 18-year-old son on a bush craft overnight. No trout to be seen so we feasted on crawfish. Anyways.... you earned my respect, my subscription and we wish you the best.... Ps .... as you can see from my pic, we also feast on snails. Cheers, MG..... the Snail

[@phyllthetyger5576]

I love looking at your old vids. This one of you and your daughter reminded me of when I was growing up. My dad would take me to the pier for crabbing. Then along with mom, we'd have a crab feast for late lunch. My dad passed in 1986, and my mom in 1999. I miss them a lot but the experience and the memories are precious.

[@GhettoRanger01]

Watching this video reminds me of my own experience crabbing, they're much tougher than they look, once they latch on it's hard to get them to release. It took several applications and several bottles of A200 and Rid, to completely eradicate them from my nether regions. ;o)

[@bowellham1780]

So sweet to have a father daughter trip like this. I took my babygirls everywhere I went

jeremy red Benefited ? From what exactly? Please read the political vision of Saudi Arabia since its existence, Saudi never planned for chaos in the middle east in fact it always fights for the other countries and tries to free from any other country that tries to interfere with middle eastern countries , in fact the problem between Saudi and Iran only occurred because Iran was interfering in other countries, Saudi is defending for other countries freedom , Saudi Arabia is one of the top countries that funds charities and poor countries , it never takes but it gives , it has always and will always plan for a safe middle east and as our crown prince said may god bless him (i will summarize it so pardon for any mistakes ) “The cause that im fighting for is a united middle east , a stable , a safe and a strong middle east and pretty sure we can do that” so please educate yourself more about Saudi’s political perspective before you dare to say Saudi does such things

I have been teaching myself for 30 years with more head knowledge then hands on. But I can make a small quanset hut bending branches and weaving. Can gut and skin most animals, and can brain tan a deer hide. At 66 I am in hopes I can teach my son many of my skills. He has high function autism and it’s a new level of teaching survival, but his life when I’m gone will depend on it. Every parent should include dirt survival skills as basic knowledge. It is kind of hard to compete with computer time! I hope Bree can teach others her skills also. I know this is a older video, but I wanted to comment.
