Just watched this video after my neighbor called in a panic with a trash panda hold up in their garage. Built to exact spec and it worked like a champ. Thanks for the great explanation. All materials sourced from Lowes. Only took about 10 mi. To build.
I am currently disabled following a reconstuctive foot surgery. I have a Vizsla/Beagle mix puppy i just adopted and besides chewing, he seems interested in chasing things like the Flirt Poles i use for my cats. Can you suggest a modification for making a long pole with maybe a ball or other toy attached that i can pull out maneuver around the yard to exercise and stimulate my boy's growth and development? Thank you 😊
I built one almost identical to that's one. I just need to figure a way to lock the cable in place until I want to release it. I plan to check tour other video on this issue.
This is great cuz i have a snake in my sink drain and sometimes it left its head so imma set my pole there and imma pull it when the head is in the loop
I wouldnt use it on snakes at all. There are commercial snake grabbers for that specific purpose. Generally speaking, unless you are quite familiar with how to do it safely I do NOT recommend ever grabbing any type of wildlife
I built this because of a raccoon problem, i caught a about 20 pound raccoon and it didnt hold it. Mabye its because raccoos can grab the cable and pull it off them but i wouldnt trust it with anything
Put something like a lawnmower pull handle on the end of your cable, then the cable won't slip through your hand and the only way a racoon could pull it off is if he has more arm strength than you. 😉
I apologize. I must have missed your question. The lock is simply a clothes line tensioner sold at most big box hardware stores. You can find them online as well. It simply only allows the cable to freely move one way.
I made one this weekend to catch a raccoon in the attic, but in the end, I didn't need it. Cost $44 in parts from Lowes now, not $9 as during the Trump era. Bidenomics at work. Vote smarter this year.

I make mine similar but I put the male/female joint in the middle and make mine 2 piece. Makes it easy to carry in my pack basket.
You are a clever man, Thank you for sharing! Cheers
Thank you. That is a good money saver. I just saw opossums in my house, and I need to get rid of them.

Dame it was this easy all along. Now I'm glad nowhere local sold em haha I woulda way overpaid when I could just do this. thanks for sharing brotha.
Glad we could help!
Cool beans man I need to make one.👊💀
I cant wait to try this out, thank you for making this!
Awesome! Hope it works for you
Excellent idea mann❕❕❕❕❕❕😇
I was thinking about actually getting one off of Amazon but now I'm going to just make my own way cheaper
Nice video!
Great tool

Can this hold a black bear with a strong enough man at the helm?

Yeah, the other video addresses that particular problem. I solved that issue, LOL
Pretty much do the same thing but it works WAY better if you drill 2 holes in the cap and anchor it on one side. Doesn’t bind as much.
will give that a try on my next one. we have built a dozen of these trying out different things
Very informative. Have you ever used it for snakes? That's primarily what I want to make one for. Thanks.
I would think it would be difficult with snakes considering they may be able to slip out unless you hold on tight and it’s a non slip line idk.
Nice work
Thanks!

Good luck to you.
Thanks
Nice hounds
Thank you! We have a new one to introduce soon. We got a 1 yr old black and tan...excited to see how he does in the trees!
thanks
I just made my own catch pole to nightnot like yours with selfy stick and old junk usb cable
I need in my Animals (Dog )shelter.
Catch Mentally Disorder dogs for treatment. Thanks.
Schedule 40 or 80 ?
I used sch 80
Would this work for snakes ?
no
By drilling 2 holes in the end cap and running the cable back in through the cap instead of the side, it should work for you.

hmmm, sorry that hear that it didn't work for you. I use mine on coyotes and it holds them. Hate to hear you had an issue though.

Have you ever seen anyone catch anything with one???
We use ours quite often. I have used it on coyotes and raccoons several times.
Was your cameraman drunk?
actually...yes...quite
What about the lock!
I apologize. I must have missed your question. The lock is simply a clothes line tensioner sold at most big box hardware stores. You can find them online as well. It simply only allows the cable to freely move one way.
Is it still $12? lol
great video i subbed our channel is a trapping and outdoor channel also check us out when you can

If people dont start voting smarter, these self reliance skills are gonna become a whole lot more important here soon!
