I'd like to ask you a question but don't want to come off wrong, it seams you sign off your videos with a seated salute, is that symbol in the USMC? In the Army we had an unofficial left hand salute, but never a seated salute.
@@nancygreggpasiecznik4673 Not knowing when exactly he moved from Tennessee up to Cleveland Ohio but he did and that is where I am from I've only been down to the Cumberland River only 3 to 4 times when I was young and one time with a friend and her husband with the family I ended up scaring the crap out of them because I took a four and a half hour walk about just exploring And when I got back I taught my friend's husband how to control a rowboat with the two oars it took me about 3 days to teach him
The Corporal's not the kind of man who's in love with the sound of his own voice - unlike sooo many here on yootoob. Great instructional vid with just enough narration to give meaning to what you see.
Much appreciated info this morning. When you bent the pin, a smile happened. Just never thought to do that. I've always carried safety pins, snare wire and a 10 ft coil of 50 thou. piano wire. I used to bend a small nail, file the ends and hammer it into a piece of tapered 3/8" dowel for a guide on my ice fishing rig. This makes sense and won't split the wood. I won't need the reel, but the guides are priceless. Will cut and bend 6 to add to my bead bottle (preform) of fishing stuff. I have to catch myself and keep saying ... 'You don't know what you don't know" Then you pop up with something I haven't thought of or seen. So . . . thanks for that and keep em' coming. In the ofttimes when tins are hard to find, I go to my preforms or Dollar Store zippered pencil cases for small kits in my pack. Last video . . . again thanks for the two strand Matthew Walker knot . . . just didn't know. Cheers.
Excellent kit, I’m Doc a old Louisiana Coonass now living in Tennessee. Served along side my Grunt Brothers for years, the best time of my service and life. Semper Fi
Glad to see your channel has grown so much you deserve it goes to show that hard work is rewarded your content is always informative and to the point without a bunch of crap bunched in as filler thank you corporal for your hard work and being so devoted to your viewers love your Channel
Metal band clamps that have a combo screw/nut closing ability like we use in some plumbing or auto related stuff might be an upgrade from the zip ties . They are cheap light you can get them any place and are reusable .Videos are always great to the point and convey everything you need to add to the skill set something new that will help you become a better woodsman and have more fun in the woods
I've been trying to think of ways to have multiple uses for my trekking poles on thru hikes and came to the idea a fishing pole would be nice to have, after seeing this I know how to execute it. Thanks.
I use the same reel but I use a telescoping fishing rod. It still fits easily into a day pack. I do like your DIY pole idea though. I was having trouble coming up with a good way to make the line guides. This is why even after 50 years of prepping I know there are still many of those little details to learn.
I keep a cheap telescoping rod and a cheap reel in my work truck for "emergencies". I've cought close to as many fishes with it as my more expensive gear.
A month ago I bought a tin fishing kit that has 4 safety pins in it. I thought it was to use as hooks but thanks to your video I can use them as guides for an improvised fishing pole. I enjoy your videos.
You Know even small fish have meat and the rest for set lines. Cat fish and turtle's. Even land trap's and all from that small tin!!! Outstanding!! Blessings 🙏
Cpl. Kelly, another outstanding video. I am ordering a Mr. Crappie today. Love the safety pin eyelets, the duct taped reel and the paracord handle. Perfect for survival. The best part is the price is right! I have a pen rod/reel but I still have to carry a small tin with tackle. p.s. I have put together your improved ridgeline and ordered the tarp you suggested. Thanks again Cpl. Kelly. Oh, by the way. I really like your gloomy intro!
Good video Cpl. Kelly , getting ready to go camping for 14 days in the Blue ridge mountains to go fishing , guess what , I’m not going to take a pole after watching this video, going to make one , it will make the trip better I think . Just knowing I made the pole and caught fish on it . The guys I’m going with will think I’m crazy. Have a happy 4th , because of Women and men like you we get to keep celebrating the 4th of July . Thanks for your service and the video. Outstanding ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟
Glad I requested this video, you actually look not so stiff, like you're really enjoying the clever design process of your rig. I knew you'd be the one to make a this idea legit.
Nice work once more I would still keep the safety pin intact if for any reason I may need a safety pin if I have to break it down. The use of the safety pin is ingenious though.
mountainghost556 I agree with you on that I I would have also used his wrap to hold the reel and eyelets. Not tape. I would worry about the tape failing after a long time use.
I'm grinning from ear to ear. Corporals hit a triple header on this one. 1.Topic and presentation 2.location Sierra Poppa. 3.Taking the Corporals Corner Collective back in time to when he was 12.
Clear and informative, as usual! When water bodies are near, you will probably get a meal faster from fishing than from trapping or hunting, as water is generally speaking more biologically dense than land. In order to survive, you need to use all options for food procurement. Set your traps or snares, and go fishing. You will eat fish while waiting for your traps to get results.
Great job bro! Another great idea for same purpose you can use fiberglass collapsible tent poles.Can break them down into 3-4 sections.Great for damaged or broken tent poles and easy to carry in a pack.
I watch all your vids even the old ones. You are a great resource for people in this community. No animosity here, I can see anger and things I would differ from. I still watch, still like and I am subscribed. Being a strong person you should have no need to get cross. Prior service vet, just a thought, easy up a bit but keep it up. Fantastic job. I look forward to mid week and Sunday.
Another great episode, good tricks & techniques! One of the great things about bluegill ponds/streams is that they will basically support a certain number of kilograms of bluegill, and they eat voraciously on a variety of prey and grow fast. Add to that, each female bluegill will lay something like 80,000 to 200,000 eggs per year, so most waters end up having too many of them numerically, and the average size is quite small, basically a "runting" process. The advantage is, you can catch & eat as many small ones (like meat french fries) as you like, and the rest will just get bigger, until the remainder get to the 1/2 pound+ range and make serious fillets. Then, the whole population refills every year and you can just keep harvesting them, especially if you leave some of the bigger ones for breeders. For longer term survival, it's an endless bucket of protein you can manage; and if it's connected to a stream system, you will get additional refills by migration from there. Because groups of little bluegill tend to raid other fish's nests to eat the babies, getting the runted crowds thinned down can help develop your potential bass, trout, and catfish populations, which will then also help control overpopulation. This is one of the few high quality food species that you can actually help the ecosystem by harvesting heavily; so if you are to be operating (or stuck) in a given area for the longer term, they are a good first target and so easy to catch.
Nice kit. Perch is better than nothing. I like that Orange paracord. Makes me want to go fishing in Alaska. At least with a rod and reel. Looks like you could have had a bunch with a cast net. I know branches and stuff. I like the way you take time to explain things. An you also showed me a new way to tie a bowline knot. That makes 3 ways for me. I have been waiting to use your handle knot. Haven't seen that since I was a kid. I used your quick release knots in the garden. Plants growing having to be tied again. Why not tie a knot that works. Thank you !
I like the concept of the ultralight fishing kit. In my part of the country the fish tend to run quite a bit larger. (Michigan) I am building the rod but will use a Zebco 404 reel that comes preloaded with 15 lb test. It weighs an extra 7 ounces but is pretty much bomb proof. The features of this reel means more and bigger fish. It is also less expensive than the Mr Crappie reel. I use a 7 day pill box to keep my hooks, swivels and sinkers organized in the minimum amount of space. The reel, pill box and extra line store nicely in an orphan sock.
That was a great video. I love to fish. It's fun and relaxing. There is nothing else like it. I have lots of tackle, but it's more fun to craft your own and it actually works.........
If you use that same set-up to dangle your paracord (white works best) lure in front of a frog, you'll find it's easier than gigging them. I used to do that with a long, crappie pole when bank-fishing at night.
I agree that is outstanding. Thank you for showing that! I never would have thought to use the safety pins. All of the fishing vids are great but, this one is the best. I will be putting this together. Rhabks again for all you do.
Yup, looks like my john-kit. 3x3 (or 4x4) inch x 3 inch tall. Tin box works good - if you can have plastic kit box with 2 levels - even better. Bottom area holds fly fishing reel or as large as possible large fly reel wheel fitting the case and multiple small packs of various fishing line weights - even fly fishing line. Top deck holds any all hooks, treble hooks, swivels, clips, weights, flies, wet flies, droppers, small paracord color bits (or colored waterproofed cotton fluff) ... and various lengths of velcro strips. Have fishing rod eyes and eye tip. Find your wilderness fishing pole from a tree limb. Notch a small flat spot on the handle for the reel and velcro tighten. Little tiny notches and install rod eyes and velcro (with a slit in the velcro, pushing the eye through holding them on the pole, superglue the velcro slit). Cut the tip flat, then "" and "+" put the tip onto the interior splinters and vecro lash all the tip splinters on the eye tip tight. Thread the line through the fish eyes, and you have a workable pole. If you have other options, retrofit any collapsible fishing pole (removing the fish eyes, and keep the sections. Thread the line through the pole hole, and make a Japanese tenko fishing pole (no fishing eyes or tip - line moves through the pole instead). All can be used in the smallest of spaces and ULW.
Great idea, the Bobby pin trick was unreal, how about a collapsible rod housed in a piece of pvc w/end caps to protect it in your pack and a reel an fishing kit in a tin or bag, great vid like always bro.
So easy to follow and full of useful information. This just made my fishing kit simple and resourceful. Using my environment to my advantage. Minimal gear in my pack Thank you Corporal, the very best as usual.
Another thing you can use to attach the reel to the rod is a couple of hose clamps. Although it would add weight and take up a bit of space. Unless of course your container is cylindrical, then you can just store them around the container itself.
I have been trying to perfect this idea for about a month now. Thanks a ton for this video. Your are one of the best bushcrafters on this platform. Idgaf what the algorithm says
Home Depot and Lowe’s sell big bags of tie wraps “ zip ties” in the electrical section pretty cheap. Black are UV resistant and they are the perfect size
As a UK subscriber I am very limited as to where and when I can fish freshwater (with a standard licence). However coastal/estuary/harbour fishing my be an alternative with slightly heavier gear, Thanks Dave
I just added two reels, tins, zip ties, 1” gorilla tape, and safety pins to my Amazon cart thanks to this video. Great fun project! By the way, gang, those reels come pre-loaded with line and cost all of 6 or 7 bucks apiece, so don’t be shy about this one! Most of us have most of the rest of this stuff just sitting in the junk drawer!
ONE thing you might add to your kit is JUST the netting from a fishing net ( fish landing net ) and put in your tin ,then just make up a frame for it. in joy works well I use it all the . I too have a bigger tin where I have two kinds reels.
one minor thing- in cold or rain, tape not so good. maybe use bankline or metal wire to hold reel and guide rings? and fishing, if you catch can be a boost to your mental state. even if you need 15 small fish to feed you. and if you cant fish or not know how to prep fish to eat.....well more skills to learn and practice . great vid
So Thought, would it be possible to cut down on the tape and zip tie, by adding the reel while wrapping the handle? I'm 100 percent curious, I'll try it on my end if no one knows.
Affirmative, what a cool idea. Thanks for providing several outstanding survival fishing options that are both creative and practical. Happy 4th, which is Outstanding!
Awesome makeshift fishing rod. Wish we could have seen a bigger fish caught though. Maybe next time. Excellent instructional video. As usual, learned a hell of a lot from you.
Try stainless steel hose clamps for holding on the reel it works great I just tape over them with electrical tape to keep stuff from snagging on them and to make it more comfortable to hold.
Thanks Corp. I watched your fishing videoed. Outstanding. Also I looked up reels. The fishing line alone is extra cordage. I chose a few of those reels. I never knew about other type of reels. Thanks again.

When my grandfather lived in Tennessee down by the Cumberland River he actually put a bamboo fishing rod together the exact same way
cgriggsiv. Do you know whether there is a civil war cemetery near the Cumberland River where you live?
@@nancygreggpasiecznik4673
Not knowing when exactly he moved from Tennessee up to Cleveland Ohio but he did and that is where I am from I've only been down to the Cumberland River only 3 to 4 times when I was young and one time with a friend and her husband with the family I ended up scaring the crap out of them because I took a four and a half hour walk about just exploring
And when I got back I taught my friend's husband how to control a rowboat with the two oars it took me about 3 days to teach him

The safety pins for guides are genius great video going to try this just for fun

Having that kit in my car would make it too tempting to make spontaneous fishing trips/stops 👍
The safety pin eyelets are next level. Outstanding video!!
It will never cease to amaze me that you can just put out bankline and paracord with just your hands. Chef hands certified

I swear you gave magic catching fish. Love the simplistic design and alternative usage of the safety pins. Great videos. Thanks
Best fishing kit video you have done! Thanks for posting this video !

Enjoying the DIY videos! I like it when people can see they don’t need to buy a bunch of expensive pre made kits.
Those safety pin guides were ingenious.
That kit is indeed outstanding. I have tons of river cane and it's always fun to find a new use for it.
I have been trying to perfect this idea for about a month now. Thanks a ton for this video. Your are one of the best bushcrafters on this platform. Idgaf what the algorithm says
Heck with the fish, I’d say you’re the catch of the day!
Found your channel a few days ago. I'm diggin it. Was going to take a week long survival course before all this bs started. Keep those vids coming!
Awesome! Great little kit. Small and affordable enough to have one in every pack and vehicle. Thanks for sharing!
loving this setup and kit Corp. Bloody good effort mate, tested in real time, proven to work. Zero BS added.
It's a good thing you're a good fisherman. It'll take about 20 of those little guys to make a meal for you! Nice kit!

Great design and execution of the project; you made it look easy -- as always! Thanks, Corporal -- and God bless!
Wow, that’s outstanding! Good to go, Corporal!
I just added two reels, tins, zip ties, 1” gorilla tape, and safety pins to my Amazon cart thanks to this video. Great fun project!

You got a nice kit there, thanks for sharing. Take care.
That's an awesome and very practical kit. It's worth having in a survival situation! Cheers!
Cool beans on the safety pin line guides.
I like the safety pin idea. I've used the same setup but I used tie wire. Had it in the truck so why not.
beautiful nature you got there
Affirmative, what a cool idea. Thanks for providing several outstanding survival fishing options that are both creative and practical. Happy 4th, which is Outstanding!
Nice vid thanks! I tried it and found a nice hazelnut pole. Works very well
Awesome makeshift fishing rod. Wish we could have seen a bigger fish caught though. Maybe next time. Excellent instructional video. As usual, learned a hell of a lot from you.
First! Haha. Great video cprl. Nice rod.
Very very clever for survival fishing kit 👍👍👍
still haven't made one of these, but damn that's nifty
This is an outstanding DIY thanks my good man!
Try stainless steel hose clamps for holding on the reel it works great I just tape over them with electrical tape to keep stuff from snagging on them and to make it more comfortable to hold.
Shawn , Great video , after seeing this I have got to build one . Keep those video's coming .
Great kit. Looks like I'll be building one of these.
Awesome video and thank you for making it ❤️👍
Thanks Corp.
I watched your fishing videoed. Outstanding. Also I looked up reels. The fishing line alone is extra cordage. I chose a few of those reels. I never knew about other type of reels. Thanks again.
