Thanks a bunch for that fish snare thats a really cool twist on a basic snare Ill have to try. Awesome vids man!
 
Whew - had your camera man been drinking during the twitch up snare video.

I was getting a little queezy! ;)

The info is great as always.

Great job John!!

Where is all the snow? Funny how we are only an hour away from eachother and I have several inches of snow and ice on the ground, while you have nothing.

The Bums need to come back to CT!!!
 
Thanks for the kind words guys. My friend Raphael was filming for the first time today.. He'll get the hang of it.. He also built his first poncho shelter today (you might be able to see it in the formative stages during the paiute video) He's new to this all but is coming along just fine...
I think the fishing snare you have to find a balance between a branch that has too much r too little tension.. I think too much force might rip the hook right out.. but it's a nice concept.

Tony, I keep hearing snow snow snow..we'll get an inch or 2, it'll hang for a day and than its gone again... THere is supposed to be a big one coming tonight so we'll see..I will definitely be coming back to Conn. THat was a blast.
 
Great stuff once again buddy I have to ask, have you ever caught a fish using the fish snare, I toyed with trying it a while back and have often wondered if anyone has caught anything with one ?
 
unfortunately I have not, as I have been told by a third party that it is illegal to use in my location..I might have to research the reality of that for myself though. I have caught allot of nice fish by just jamming my poll into a crevice.....uhh wait a minute. by securing my fishing rod into an upright position and leaving a baited hook in the water while I snooze.. It's not much different I suppose.
 
yeah that was stupid..I don't even know why I said that.. Guess I should script them...

Like a persons going to be walking along a trail and say "look ath that hughe precariously balanced tree trunk..and what's that on speared on it??? a chunky bar??? MMMMM" sometimes I find my level of stupidity frightening.
 
Great videos, that's the nice thing about knowledge and the internet, ideas get shared and youtube means we can see exactly what the process/method is.

Thanks again.
 
Cool vids. really liked the fish snare. What kind of bait would you use for a person? A candy bar? Or maybe some hard candy? :D
 
nice I just had to edit in a disclaimer....Hypothetically however. I think I'd use a PSP or maybe a current issue of Juggs
 
A chunky bar??!! You are dating yourself my friend....I loved those bars! I better look "UP" before grabbing one if I could ever find one around here. hahaha

I like the videos. I am going to try to build a paiute trap soon. With your EWOK.
