    I was camping in Texas with my nephew on a small island that split a fairly large creek (could almost consider it a river). I wasn't paying attention and used a barbless hook with line attached to a spring pole. I had a bell attached to the line let me know I was getting a bite. I heard it ring and got to it in time to see the pole launch a good-sized pan fish from one side of the island to the other side of the creek. My nephew asked me "what the hell was that?" I said, "Apparently I'm relocating fish under the witness protection program". Ate cup o noodle soup that night. Went to a trotline setup instead the next day.

    Thanks Dave for everything, really! About a 10? yrs ago you sold me a slingbow and some other stuff for an 8 year old. He's grown to a strong young man with skills to live without. We left our Ohio/Amish community for the woods of Texas and the tonight another son is watching your videos too. God bless you and yours.

    The fishing part of that trap is so much better than tying it to your toe. What an excellent trap. Thanks Dave that is way simpler and the way I used to sell them.

    An excellent clear informative demo of how to make the Twitch-up trap thank you, Dave. In my own experience, I have found that it takes 7-9 set traps to set in an average rabbit-populated area in the countryside here in New Zealand for me to bag one rabbit a night. I will bring a video out on this in action in my next primitive video.

    Beautiful larks head and marlin spike combination. Certainly a super secure knot but yet easily undone. Totally brilliant Dave. Superb trap/trigger method. Thanks so much for all you do on this channel. I sent I application to the 2023 Alone Challenge. Wish me the good fortune of getting selected. Jim Rodgers

    Pleased to see trapping still happens.
    80 year old guy here.
    In the winter bunnies run on obvious paths in the snow
    I made loops of brass wire.
    drove in a peg & laid the wire right on the paths, snow would soon cover the snare and sooner or later a rabbit would step into my snare.
    Every time I checked there was a rabbits foot in the snare.
    yup every snare I set this way got a bunny. But too hard to get back to the snare before a coyote does. Yes I fed them coyotes all winter;
    I also caught weasels with small leg hold traps. I skinned them & the HBC would buy the pelts from me. 🤠. I did not trap except in the winter for fur.

    I’ve watched so many of these types of videos and it’s just like the knot tying videos, at least with me anyway. But you can watch someone doing it a hundred times but until you get the rope or string or wire and physically make the knots or cut the pieces of wood and do it yourself you will be lost in the field. It’s not hard. But the more you do it the more you can fine tune the snare or perfect the knots. That’s what happened to me. I couldn’t remember a quarter of the information or skills shown to me from watching a video and began to think I was stupid. Well maybe I am. But hands on makes it happen and the more you do it the better you will get. Dave there definitely knows his stuff and that’s a fact. But all he can tell and do is show you. You have to do it yourself to know how to do it. Buddy your videos are always amazing and appreciated thank you for sharing your experience with us ✌️👍🇺🇸

    Yep, I used to use it for fishing. I use a beer can and when it snaps , it hits the can . Perfect for catfish and always free. I'd love to see a video on that. People are wasting money on tech . It's extremely satisfying to hear that can pop .
