Great video! Question, is bouy drift a problem? Bc of all the rope does the body tend to drift away from the pot? I'm worried about my bouy drifting over into boat traffic. Sorry, I've never done this before 😂
Thank You for the great video and advise! It was actually helpful for me that you repeated the knots a few times. I know this was unintentional for the most part because the rope was so uncooperative, but it really made it clear what you’re doing.
Thank you for this video. I am new at using the crab traps to catch crabs. Your video is precise and clear for what I was looking for rigging my ropes to the floats
Thanks for this video! I’ve been searching for something like this for a few weeks now and haven’t found anything good until yours! Going to go use these knots next time I go out!
Can I use bottles as buoys ? Because I have craw fish traps they have empty bottles with a inside cutting of pant as markers can I do that with crab pots
May I offer a helpful tip? If you have a short piece of 1” pvc pipe, you can wrap the rope around the pipe, run the tag end through the pipe and then pull the pipe out. If it helps you to be more comfortable, you can leave your finger in the pipe while you are wrapping the loops.
Great video good thing he did things multiple times and slowly! If sleepy Joe Biden had a cool younger brother this would be him. Just got back last week crabbing here in Oregon caught 28 crabs in 2 days not a bad weekend.
Sorry, but were you trying to make a helpful video or were you just trying to make a fun video showing mistake after mistake? I seriously am not sure. 🧐
I reckon ur comments come under the heading of “no good deed goes unpunished”. Give this guy a break. Do u expect everyone on you tube to be professionals? He deserves credit for trying to provide useful information. A little planning and editing makes this a a really good video. I found it very helpful.
@@Sammy-nw3zk I did not intend for my comment to sound mean spirited. I had not viewed any of this gentleman’s previous videos so I thought maybe he really had a dry sense of humor and this was his way of having fun. I worked for 30yrs with a coworker with a sense of humor like that that I always enjoyed but other of my coworkers never understood him. My apologies if the creator or anyone else took offense to my comments 🙏
@@fishhunt9874 no worries FH I understand where you're coming from. Perhaps he was trying to add a little comedy to his video. Im glad he made it because it was just the information I needed. Just hope it helps me catch lots of crab. 👍
@@Samantha-cw1ci I am all for that! 4 new traps and a new Discoverey Bay pot Hauler on my boat. No more hand hauling 30lb pots on slimy ropes from 200’ for me. Hands free at 160 feet per minute!
Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Very helpful!
Thank you for this VERY helpful video! Your patience and technique is top notch!!
Thanks for the video. The first knot took a little longer than the rest but such a clean way to tie it.
Thanks for the video. I tie all my crab rigging the way you explained in the video. Big help. I liked and subscribed your video. Thanks again

That good video
Thomas what brand and size rope are u using?
Great video good thing he did things multiple times and slowly! If sleepy Joe Biden had a cool younger brother this would be him. Just got back last week crabbing here in Oregon caught 28 crabs in 2 days not a bad weekend.
Where do we go from here?
I don't know why but these knots have big tendency of slipping through.
Thank you :)
2 ropes??? That was one rope tho...
Here, let me show you how I do it...then at 9:41...someone else will do it and drive me nuts!! lol
Double uni knot
I don’t think that’s gonna work when you have two hundred feet of line.
U did it 5X the first 2 or 3 times bruh whitch is it quit doing it differently each time....
*Not*
Sorry, but were you trying to make a helpful video or were you just trying to make a fun video showing mistake after mistake? I seriously am not sure. 🧐
Ikr I couldn’t figure it out. To me it seemed like a lot of wasted rope but that’s my opinion
