    I was looking at that line flare on the front of your hobo rod and it occured to me some flashlights have a flare like that on the front. Went to the thrift store and checked through their flashlights. Found the one with the best curve on the flare. Picked up the perfect "rod" for a buck. Gutted the insides and have a nice kit compartment. It has to be tested out for cast but looks great. 🤗
    Thanks for the idea.😀

    • @LShapedAmbush
      @LShapedAmbush 5 років тому +1

      @@spudboy2865 I don't agree. With a bowline, you bring the tag end up through the bight, around the standing end and down through the bight again . Remember the old mnemonic: "The rabbit comes out of the hole, around the tree and back into the hole." In the video, he puts the tag end down through the bight from the top, around the standing end and back up out of the bight. So , the rabbit is going down in the hole instead of coming out. Tie it both ways with two pieces of cord and you will have two different knots. Very similar to a bowline and it doesn't seem slip either.

    Used what I learned from your video to cheat lol. Had a very old "survival" knife with the hollowed handle and cheap compass that I unscrewed the blade. Was already wrapped in cord and had a lanyard hole. Plugged the hole with a screw then put hooks, line, weights, and floats in the handle. Went from useless cheap knife to great hobo fishing kit. The plus is the compass does work, so have a backup compass.

I think it’s a cool set up.

    Easy to follow for everybody.
    Crystal clear instructions and video.
    You could also use 1 inch PVC pipe with a glued on internal fitting cap for the throw end.
    Might have to sand the hexagon down to round.
    And a screw on cap for the handle end.
    For the grip rubber heat shrink tubing would also work great.
    Place it on the tube and very lightly heat it.
    The shrink tubing would really pull down tight. I like that stuff.
    Heat shrinked a couple of pliers handles that had peeled off works as good as the original.
    For holding the line on a heavy duty rubber band would work well.
    It is what we used to use to keep the line on the spool after opening the package.

    Good enough to be a john-fishing kit .... A stubby aluminum cigar tube (with screw cap) could also do the job. A good waterless desert fishing kit. Catch a small mouse, have a small (rubber?) mouse toy, make a mousy-like fur item, or a (rubber) lizard-like critter. Attach to line, walk and drop on open desert near critter path. Jerk-bait the lure. Wait for hawk, falcon, or critter to grab, desert "fishing" at its best.

    I'm glad you considered the fact that people don't have the money, skill or tools to do some projects. I like this project more than the carved fishing kit because I don't have the tools or skill for that. I can actually do this. One thing I do need to study and practice is knot making.
    By the way, what was the plant you showed that looked sort of like a dandelion. I think I have that growing in my yard and have never found out what it is. Mine isn't dandelion because it has multiple flowers/seed heads and is branched while a dandelion only has one flower/seed head.

      It's usually just called a giant dandelion, but it's "official" name is Taraxacum.

    What an awesome video!! It has given me ideas for DIY Christmas gifts for kids and grandkids. I will have to see how much I enjoy making these, because it also looks like it could be a way to generate some cash in my retirement!
