  • Which minnow trap catches MORE minnows!? Homemade minnow trap vs store bought Walmart minnow trap. I tested my minnow traps out to see which one would catch more minnows. I put both minnow traps in a tiny creek. I used hot dogs for bait and put 1 hot dog in each trap. I set the minnow traps side by side in the tiny creek and left them for 24 hours. After 24 hours I checked the traps to see which trap caught the most minnows. I had a lot of fun testing out my minnow traps. It was cool to see how the two minnow traps compared. Which do you think is the best minnow trap?

    Cool.. I only use the gee minnow traps. Wal-Mart ones for me I have no luck

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому

      I think the Walmart is Frabill brand. I've had decent luck with them. I haven't tried the gee minnow trap. Thanks for watching!

    I heard that hotdogs work really good for catfish but minnows like bread

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому +2

      Hot dogs and bread are both great minnow bait. I'll be posting a video next week. I did bread vs hot dogs in minnow traps to see which works the best. You will have to check it out. Going to be a cool video.

      Katy Cram my cousin and I used rotten meat and it works wonderful. Some people say lettuce is the best but I haven't tried it

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому +1

      That would be super interesting to try lettuce!

    Be smarter than Walmart to the work yourself buy two wire mesh office bins put a hole In the bottom and shape it to a open and stick them together.

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому

      Great idea! Thanks!

    • @grungeboy1752
      @grungeboy1752 4 роки тому

      I've actually made minnow traps out of wire office bins and they work great ' many successful minnow catches using bread and placing the trap in deep pools of creeks and streams

    You can only fish from shore it's super swift and then super deep

    • @FishHawk

      Sounds like good Trout water!

  • @rynodynomyte2755

    A great video buddy! I can’t decide which is better, but you did great catching them!

  • @alan_whoneedstiedye
    @alan_whoneedstiedye 6 років тому +6

    Sized counts. I'm thinking the store bought was at least 4x bigger than the home made, plus it had openings at both ends, home made only 1 opening.
    How about a DIY on a wire mesh home made minnow trap?

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому

      For sure. The homemade one was at a huge disadvantage. That would be a cool video idea! Thanks!

    • @alansturgill5095
      @alansturgill5095 6 років тому

      you could use 2- 2 litters and make 1 trap

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому

      True! That would work well

    • @alansturgill5095
      @alansturgill5095 6 років тому

      yep yep 2 entrances just have to cut the bottom off of each 1 and join them

    If you're in saltwater mussels would work the best

      I like that idea! I have never used a minnow trap in saltwater. Might have to try that out sometime. Thanks!

    Dude I went through your videos and every time you use the word "TROUT" on your title you get over a thousand views so it's probably a good idea to do some trout fishing vids

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому

      Funny you say that, I have a Trout fishing video coming up in the next few weeks. I went Trout fishing last Saturday for the first time since June. I caught some nice Trout. I will definitely be making a video. Stay tuned for it! Thanks for your support!

    • @primecatch7840

      Sawyer Rodeheaver That sounds awesome! I might have to make a trip up there! I'm only about 1 hour away. I've fished Jennings Randolph a few times. When is a good time to catch some big Trout?

    • @fordpowerstroke2849
      @fordpowerstroke2849 6 років тому

      Ummm when it's like kinda mild in February that's a good time for big spoons and jerkbait in kinda up shallow for big browns and rainbows

    • @fordpowerstroke2849

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому

    you wont get a lot of fish in the homemade trap to small no room inside

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому

      Truth! I want to make a bigger homemade one and then do another homemade vs store bought challenge.

    • @bobbycarroll376
      @bobbycarroll376 5 років тому

      try a 3 liter maybe or some other large plastic container

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  5 років тому

      Thanks, I will have to do that sometime!

  • @carolbishop8107
    @carolbishop8107 6 років тому +1

    They're both store-bought the reason is you had to buy the bottle at a store

  • @Red_Beard.
    @Red_Beard. 6 років тому +2

    You made the homemade one wrong.

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  6 років тому +2

      Charles Dobson I saw your video where you made a homemade one. You used 2 bottles. I used 1. When you use one bottle, you have to make it the way I did. Thanks for watching.
