The zinc has a higher melting temp than the lead so they are easily scooped off with the steel scrap however they can melt and “poison” the lead batch.

Hey thanks. It’s definitely been a game changer for us. My dad brother and I sat down with some ideas one night and this is what came of it.

@@FishQuest hell you guys could charge for that job ,super solid work! I'm actually planning a trip up to the snake here this summer for a few nights and would be cool to link up with some locals and get on some sturgeon if you guys would be down for that

@@HurtinForSturgeon hah ya I’m sure Ugly Stik or someone may steal my design which would actually be cool to see. That’d be awesome, we’d love to hit the Snake with you sometime. My email should be linked in the video description, feel free to email me and we can exchange phone #’s and make a summer trip happen.

Very nice! Was it a white sturgeon?

@@FishQuest she looked kind of greenish... Caught off the border of South dakota and Minnesota.

Hah ya, it’s called an energy drink so you’re not asleep when moby comes around.

Glad it helped!

The sad truth about used wheel weights is that as the years pass actual lead wheel weights become harder to find. Have you tried going to your local scrap yard to see if they will sell you other forms of scrap lead?

@@FishQuest I haven't stopped by there as it's like 30 miles away. I called them 2 days ago and had to leave a message, but they never returned my call. I'll have to call them again next week.

J'ai toujours voulu apprendre le français, peut-être qu'un jour je pourrai parler couramment le français. Merci pour le commentaire!

I’ve used the knotless knot before when I was trying pva bait bags for carp fishing, haven’t really used it since. What I like about the egg loop knot is that it has the ability to open up and receive soft baits and hold them firmly. Where legal, we will find and shuck large freshwater mussels and put the meat through the loop of the knot. Thanks for the comment!

Hey, expect the video before the month is out. We are actually on the road filming at the moment. Should be no later than the first of April.

@@FishQuest ok 👌

@@MeatheadFishing11693 hey bro just wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten about the video upload. If you're still interested it will be up tomorrow evening. Sorry for the delay, I got a respiratory infection that knocked me flat.

@@FishQuest Ok, hopefully you feel better soon.

@@MeatheadFishing11693 thanks, ua-cam.com/video/1LviwKW99c0/v-deo.htmlsi=z5X3uobEMUAEG3xe

great comment and info. looking back, I wish I would have gone over the need to sort out the zinc wheel weights from the mix or make mention of the need to babysit the melting pot to spot any stray zinc weights. Looking back I don't believe I have ever actually melted zinc weights on my lead because I'm constantly watching and waiting for the lead to melt so the zinc didn't have the chance to melt at a higher temp. From what I understand only a percentage of the zinc will mix yet it will "poison" the batch which will result in inferior casts. I do have one question for you and that is lead melts at 621 °F and zinc at 786 °F, you mentioned 667°F, what does that temp pertain to? Again thanks for the comment and helping others learn.

@@FishQuest Sorry i popped that number off the top of my head. Your number is correct for the melting point of ZINC. I have wrecked a few batches of lead and it doesnt take much zinc to do it. I collect from tire shops around town and these days i keep all the zinc for casting things other than boolits. Thanx

@@ITZGR82BFREE right on, thanks again!

thank you and great question. In the past, I waited until the waste had cooled and then I put it into the dumpster. More recently I've been taking the cooled waste to a recycling center where they'd take it for free.

Always a blast hanging out with everyone catching sturgeon, literally an addiction of mine!

For sure, thanks for subscribing!

I have seen people sell lead ingots on Facebook Marketplace as well as Ebay. There are groups on FB that teach how to process and sell lead. I'd start there.

that's cool, what country?

The noun ammunition can be countable or uncountable. In more general, commonly used, contexts, the plural form will also be ammunition. However, in more specific contexts, the plural form can also be ammunitions e.g. in reference to various types of ammunitions or a collection of ammunitions. Constitutions referring to the potential that the viewers of this particular video are not of the same nationality, but rather scattered in various countries in which “constitutions” would be proper. Thanks for the comment and keeping me honest on my 3rd grade grammar.

@@FishQuest Kenny, just own it. When speaking of ammo, we don’t say ammunitions. We say ammo, or ammunition. Regardless of caliber or lot. Also, there is only one REAL constitution. Thank bro, we know what time it is on the street. FJB.

Hey thanks for the feedback, it didn’t take long to realize that wheel weights buried in a 5 gallon bucket may hold some water which will pop explosively when it submerges in lead, the shovel is a must now a days hah.

ah that sounds absolutely amazing, salt cured would be fun to try! When I have a surplus of beaver I'll jerky the extra meat which is also tasty.

Hello, the name of the grill is “Takibi Fire & Grill” by a company called “Snow Peak”. There are other knock-offs that I’ve used but the quality isn’t the same as Takibi. Here is a link for the grill: amzn.to/47HZPiI. The sheaths/wallets I make I haven’t sold anywhere, I typically just make what I need out of the tails for myself, perhaps one day I’ll market my tail products I have another video called “Beaver Tail Bait How To” that video shows how I skin a beaver tail for bark tanning. Thanks for the comment, hopefully mine was helpful.

And more catch n cook video please

@@nbtytdjdhdjd2901 if you love catch clean and cooks you’re going to love what we have planned this year! Thanks for the comments.

Hey thanks, I’m currently editing some other catch clean and cooks.

Thanks, glad to have you here!

To each his own I guess, I honestly have only eaten mule deer that have lived primarily in sage. Everyone says that acorn fed whitetail is where it’s at, one day I suppose. I agree entirely with you. Many animals can quickly do thousands of dollars in damage when left unchecked. Everyone points their fingers at trappers until their cat/poodle gets hauled off by a coyote or their canal flooded because muskrats moved in. I bet you wouldn’t trade the memories trapping with your dad for anything. My trapping memories are some that I hold close. Thanks for the comment.

Hey thanks, I’ll have to bring you some next time hah.

Solid advice.

hey thank you, I'm currently sitting on about 5 TB of content that I'm slowly working through. Im trying to get a video out every two weeks.

hey thanks, this was definitely a fun vid to film and edit.

Thanks and welcome! More content coming soon.

@RustyInventions-wz6ir, welcome aboard and thank you.

@ryanlilly1293, the pot I used was a Lee Pro 4 20LB, I modified the pot by adding a piece of 3/4” plywood between the base and the back to make it stand tall enough to pour into my big 14 oz sinker molds. I’m currently working on a video that goes over my gear I use and the process of making sinkers.

@@FishQuest sweet thank you

@patrickv3413, most convenience stores in Idaho carry morts. They are slightly deteriorated so I assume they are the die-outs from hatcheries that are then sold to us. They work good but not nearly as good as fresh caught/cut.

Very nice. I feel like any sturgeon over 8’ is a dang nice fish.
