How long did it last before it stop glowing ?
With the up paint like this they will glow as long as the light is on, mine from when this video still work only thing would be if you scrape or scratch the paint off, hope this helps if not let me know
Do you have to use a blacklight for it to glow, or would it glow on its own on a dark night?
The paint I used you do have to use the black light, I use a nebo brand dock light that works well, you could however get regular glow in the dark paint and do the same thing only downside there is most of those paints have to be exposed to so much light before they glow on their own in the dark. Hope this helps.
@@Lifetime_Angler It does help. Thank you!

How long do you let them dry before you use them
I’d let them dry for a few days just to make sure they are set but depending on what bag of concrete you use it should have cute times on the back of it.
Very good, thanks!
Thank you!
Well presented, video a little ouchy, but well done and true. One thing you did miss is using the Uni knot as a stopper knot for slip bobbers. Tight lines and fair winds.
Thank you trying to work out the kinks with videoing, appreciate the feedback and thanks for catching the stopper knot tip!
Wow, Im first!! Very informative, but why is there a jar of Hellmanns Mayonnaise on your bed??? 😂
Haha, I had to go back and look! It’s actually a bottle of children’s gummy vitamins, my son loves them. You had me worried there for a minute, I was just as curious as you why there was mayo in the bed I know I didn’t put it there!
@@Lifetime_Angler HAHAHAHA
Good to hear from ya .
Yes sir life is crazy expecting a new baby this next week and quite a bit going on at church and helping rebuild the music ministry. Seems I ain’t had much free time lately actually have footage for a few more videos but haven’t found time to edit and post them yet!
Actually a 4th way! This knot is tried and truly proven to be easy AND STRONGER than most ANY other knot, Period! With braid it requires more wraps and heavier mono or fluoro less. Pro Tip: This is pretty much unknown (TMK), it can even be utilized as a loop knot If you use your fingernail to slide it backward slightly after snugging tight to the eye of a lure. It will slide up to re-snug against the lure or hook eye under pressure of a Fish On! : ) This can be done repeatedly to form the small loop again, for more lure action. Try it, Tight lines!
Help me out here. I know what your talking about with making a loop knot with it but is there not a fear of the line rubbing and burning itself as it slides back tight under pressure? I discovered what your talking about by accident one day but always wondered about weakening the line. Thanks ahead of time!
@@Lifetime_Angler not any heat in such a short slide distance, especially under water.
I would have expected at least a small monetary fine. Hopefully they will never attempt to compete again as honor and sportsmanship go hand-in-hand.
I’m not too sure they will be welcomed at any tournament from here on. Their faces and names have been blasted out around the fishing community. Also if I’m understanding right the judge could still hand out a monetary fine at sentencing. I get the boat is about 100k in value but I think it was given up more out of a here take it and don’t look into anything else. Personally I wanted to see a permanent ban on license for all states, not sure that’s a possible thing but that and a bit of “wildlife” community service would have made me happy, they took advantage of the resources god provided us to use and take care of and that doesn’t sit right with me at all.
With all the crazy things around us. You find the positive . Thank you

Why would you sneel the hooks?
The big reason for me is that some hooks it helps with to setting action of the hook. Also I find it a lot easier to snell a hook with larger mono than to tie a regular knot in that thick line. Some would argue more strength but I think that is a 50/50 at best depending on your knot and how well it’s tied.
Four knots you should know. Arbor knot for respooling, improved clinch knot for hooks and lures, uni to uni for tying two lines together. Paloma knot for fire line. I suppose a loop knot too, but it's one I never use.
I’ll agree but with the addition of knowing how to snell a hook and man that loop knot is a must know for me. Curious what do you fish for mostly? Loop knot is big for me with all my crappie fishing. Bass I go big on a palomar and cats I go heavy on a snelled hook
@@Lifetime_Angler I'm a multi species guy. I live a couple of blocks from the Des plaines river in IL. The most prevalent species are carp, northern pike, and channel catfish. The cats are a recent arrival due to the deconstruction of all the dams. A lot of other fish have shown up. It used to be carp and northern mostly, throw in the occasional large mouth and bullheads of course. There's a lot of fish I have caught that are catch and release award worthy. Biggest fish.... carp 36 inches, pike, 34 in, ( there are bigger fish of both ) walleye 23 in, Sauger 19 largemouth 16 in hybrid striper 15, small mouth
@@Lifetime_Angler Oops, let me continue... smallmouth 15 iin, crappie 13 in. White sucker 20 in. Bluegills now school up instead of being a solitary catch, the biggest go about eight inches. My setup is a light action that's spooled with six pound fireline, I used to use four but the move up to six hasn't changed my results negatively, and I have way less break ups than before. I fish with nightcrawlers on that, with a thill center slider and a number eight tru turn hook, the fine wire hooks for trout and crappie, not the thick bait holder hooks. In the nineties when the Chicago river started making a comeback, I cought thousands of largemouth on this rig. Average sixty to seventy a day. Mostly dinks the first couple years eight to ten inch average and a very occasional 12 inch. One day I brought ten dozen crawlers and got well over 200 largemouth. Then the fish got bigger. You wouldn't catch 60 or 70 a day, it was in the 30 to 40 daily average, but these fish were 14 to 16 inches long. Those two years were fantastic, and then word got out, and the numbers crashed so I don't go there often anymore. But last year the dam was removed, and I plan to go soon to see what's up. A great river for big bluegills. Lots of big carp, nice channel cats and I've seen a big salmon get pulled out of there but the main draw has always been the bass. My other rig is a medium action with ten pound fireline. I use this for fishing lures for pike and whatever else. I always thought using a wire leader was as good as using a loop knot but I want to try using fifty to sixty pound fluorocarbon instead. Do you think this will work better than a wire leader for crankbaits if I use a loop knot? What about inline spinners? Any recommendations? By the way, I'm really old school, so when I started fishing as a young man I wanted my reel to work like when I was a kid. So instead of figuring out how to set the drag because I was clueless, I put the drag as high as it would go and backreel the fish in. I haven't caught a single fish using the drag, I always backreel. Thank you for your time and interest and your reply. Any tips on loop knots would be much appreciated. There are some BIG northerns, I have battled my share, I believe there are forty inch plus out there. Also, why do you use a snell knot for catfish? Best fishes!
Sounds like you’ve had some fun over the years! I snell the hook for catfish when using rod and reel because I tend to have a better hook set on the fish that way with the circle hooks. Before I started doing it I’d get alot of fish just barely caught by the skin. Personally haven’t had a chance to go after northern pike but would like to one day. As far as the wire leader vs a loop knot with the action I’d imagine it would be pretty similar depending on the design of the leader. I’d look up the perfection loop knot for what your wanting to try, the one I use for crappie I wouldn’t trust to hold up against the northerns. I haven’t seen anyone backreel on a fish in a long time but it definitely works a lot of us get spoiled with everything we have easy access too now. My best day as far as numbers go with bass has been right around 30 so no where near your glory days there! Best of luck and reach out if you have any questions I’d be glad to help best I can!
@@Lifetime_Angler Catching a lot of dinks was great fun, but nothing really that notable because it was an emerging fishery that I luckily stumbled upon when I was on a bus going to a local pond and another rider told me that I could catch bluegill and carp in the Chicago river. So I decided to try it because it was an interesting mix and I had never fished there. I didn't catch any carp or bluegill but I did catch 35 dink bass. But the years after that when you could get thirty fish in the 14 to 16 inch range was truly fantastic. So after finding out about the Chicago river I found what I thought was a good spot and caught those dinks, but I wasn't at the exact spot the guy in the bus told me about. So after fishing at the first spot a few more times I got curious about that spot the guy on the bus told me about. The problem was that I had turned north instead of south. I wasn't very familiar with the river yet. So one day I headed south. I had checked a map. It wasn't hard to miss because it was where the north shore channel empties into the Chicago river. I didn't search for that spot the first time because I can be lazy and walking that far to find that spot after walking as far as I already had, I wasn't about to retrace my steps and the spot I was at looked good enough. So I finally headed south one day and found the confluence. To my surprise, there were about twenty people there fishing. There were 6 or 7 guys fishing across the river on the east side, about eight or nine guys fishing on the south side of the channel and there were at least five people fishing the north side of the channel. This is the spot I arrived at. The reason there were less people where I was because it was the hardest spot to get to because of the terrain and the layout. There was plenty of room and no one shyed me away, in fact I was welcomed. The year was 1996 and people were not as knowledgeable about fishing as they are today. So while there were a lot of people fishing, not many fish were being caught. So I wormed up my light action and started pulling out fish after fish. Dinks yes but it was pretty cool. Every one near me started asking me how I was doing it. I was a very experienced float ( bobber ) fisherman by then and had developed a keen sense of what every little movement of the float indicated. I had learned this technique by fishing for very finicky bass at a local pond. One of the people there "accused" me of having better worms. I told her that wasn't it at all, and offered to switch worms with her. She was amazed that I cought a fish using her worms. I showed her all the differences in our setups. She listened carefully and after I showed her my float was skinny and she was using a round bobber that the fish could feel when pulling the bait under because of water resistance. I showed her the difference in line, she was using heavier line with a too big hook. After showing her every difference she would go back to her friends and tell them he said do this, he said do that, all in hushed tones like it was a big secret. It was quite humourous. I was out fishing these other twenty people ten to one, which is a ratio of 200 to one. I began fishing there five times a week. Some people would kid me and say that's the same fish and he started calling me babe after Babe Winkelman a tv show fisherman. I became known as the local guru. One morning on my day off I decided to go there early at around nine, to beat the crowd, I'm not really a morning guy as I like to fish at dusk. About an hour later a guy showed up with his son. He saw me getting fish after fish and he said he had heard about me, he said you must be the guy who catches all the fish.Trying to be humble ( not like now obviously) I said I'm not sure about that and he said no no they said you use a long poll and stand on this rock and catch a fish on every cast. It was a thrill to realize I had reached this level of recognition. Then about a week later, another guy started studying me and what I was doing. He didn't want to ask outright. So for a month every time I was there he would soon show up, watching me when he had his line out of the water. After a few weeks he had his eureka moment and said loudly I got it, this is how he does it. Don't cast into the school, cast to the side of it and let your bobber ( float ) drift into the school. When the bobber gets there jig it once and shoot out some slack. Then the bobber goes down and it's fish on. I hope you can find a good spot for pike, they bite anything. They're so mean I have cought them without hooking them because they won't let go of the lure.Thanks so much for the advice and reply. Best fishes!
Hello dear friend😊 You have very interesting videos👌 I also give the most up-to-date fishing hook knots and training in my channel, thank you for watching my channel too 🙏😍
Great video. I have tremors in my hand and need a small vise to tie my leaders. This just made my day. Thank you. I subscribed. I use a not a knot "snell" which i also glue on with krazy glue. I do not trust that notaknot. I also use a Palomar and one I can't remember the name of. I think if this works like you showed it, I will be switching to this snell for leaders and a Palomar for many other ties. PS Please check your sound before you start the audio section of the video.
Thanks I hope this helps, can’t imagine trying to tie knots with hand tremors. I do good half the time to tie them without tremors. On the audio note it is something I’m aware of and have been working to improve. A few of these videos I did early on I didn’t notice it until it was too late. I’m still green to the TH-cam world and learning something everyday but greatly appreciate the feedback without it I may not know something that needs improved on.
Also if you have anything your curious about and would like to see let me know I’m always up for suggestions and willing to cover it if I know it!
Best way .. and by my tests it's stronger than easy and uni snells.. I use for salt water mono/fluro for grouper, AJ, & snapper .. A good detail to make sure the loaded standing line does not fall into the gap in the hook ring is to make sure the tag is lead through on the side of the gap... a wrapped so the tag is seated in the gap.. easier to see with a big hook and big mono.... On small circle hooks I default to the uni of Palomar
Ain’t ever had a chance to give it a go on anything like grouper, but if it can take that then that’s a great testament in my opinion. The uni and polomar are two on my other favorite go tos. The polomar especially for bass jigs!
I have to agree with your daughter. I was out with the kids one day just looking what would bite pre snelled Hooks and split shot plus a worm on the end couldn't reel in the channel cat fast enough. I was surprised how well those things casted but setting the hook was a little challenging with the short Pole. Good to hear from you
Yes sir they can be interesting to get the hook set with. Sorry it’s been so long. I’ve had the holidays a job change, crashed laptop, had to rebuild my well house as well as been given more responsibility with things at church so definitely a lot going on but should be to a point I can get back to these videos. Come end of March me and a buddy have a trotline trip we are making and that will be a great video or two I’ll get put up!
Thanks for the tips I’m looking to improve my pitching
No problem it takes quite a bit of practice or at least for me it does I still can’t put a pitch quite as close to a mark as I can a flip. I get in a groove flipping during the summers n get halfway decent until I don’t use that skill for several months lol
Great video. Here's a tip: try using a larger cord for demos, like a shoelace, string, or paracord. Obviously you'd never fish with that but it shows up better on demos.
Thanks for the tip! I’ve gone back and forth on trying to use something like paracord but sometimes I actually run a hook or lure on the knot so I need to come up with a larger eye to use with something like that. Hope it was still helpful for you and again thank you for the input!
🎣 Thanks! Do Lots of carp and cat fishing here in SA
No problem, best of luck going into 2023! Hope you get some good ones!
That looks about as strong as a improved cinch knot or fisherman's knot. I'm going to try that with some ultralight line say 4 lb and a small hook. With aging eyes that may be the ticket along with arthritic hands. I've been wrenching on cars professionally for almost 40 years
The only issue I’ve had with light line and small hooks with this knot is sometimes a bare #8 hook doesn’t have enough weight to easily flip over 6lb mono. However if you where using 2 or 4 lb line I think it would work just fine. I don’t have the arthritis to compete with but my hands get super cold and stiff in the winter making knots a pain to tie and this is a life saver for me.
Now that's one usefully knot .
Thanks! I think I’m going to do a full length break down on it but I ain’t got a clue what this knots called it’s one a buddy showed me and he didn’t know the name either his dad had just always used it.
I have never used that type of float or bobber. My old time go to was a clear plastic float that you could fill with water as needed to get the needed buoyancy also it added weight forecasting until it landed in the water where it became neutral. Great for drifting bait in a cool stream as it allowed a natural presentation. Keep them coming
I’ve seen those! Learned about them when I started getting into fly fishing a few years back!
Good job, Buddy. I like it.
Thanks man!
You almost cover any question I may have by the end . No raising my hand .LOL
I tried to cover what I could think of. I can’t tell you how much stuff I’ve bought and carried back and forth for no reason before.
If you’re using the exact same line, then this is a test with a statistical distribution of the breaking strength of the line. No conclusions can be drawn regarding the knots. Are you using the exact same line (brand?)
The line is all mr crappie 6lb mono coming off of the exact same spool. With what you are saying how would you recommend test the strength of the knot instead of the line? I’ve always grown up hearing the knot is the weak point and so assumed using the same line with the different knots would put the individual knots to the test. If there’s a better way I’d love to do something more accurate!
@@Lifetime_Angler Don’t get me wrong. I still like your video. I’m curious as to where the line was breaking. Was it somewhere in the middle or was it where the line was attached above? I’d have to give some thought as to how to test the kNot versus the line. I think a fellow at salt strong may have rigged something up but I would have to look there. Your existing rig is good for comparing different types of line!
Most of the breaks where right above the knot. I need to do another one of these and put some different lines to the test. I’d like to find a more accurate way to measure force other than my 5 gall bucket with water being poured into it. Maybe I can rig something up to a digital fish scale
That looks like a fairly easy knot to tie on a larger hook. Maybe it's just my old eyes or the fact that I normally fish with smaller hooks. I was able to use the uni knot and snell a size 6 hook. Took a few times. Keep them coming as time allows
I can see where smaller hooks with short shanks this one could be a bit of a bear. Apologize there’s been such a gap in videos quite a bit going on in life past few weeks with sick kiddos changes at church and changes in my day job. Plan to get back to it soon!

Surprisingly I often use a number 14 treble hook when fishing for stocked trout in a lake along with the two or four pound test leader. Stock trout in my area are often 12 in or so and holdovers will grow much larger but only about 10% of them will survive a full year. They have no wild instincts and have only been given Hatchery food so even bugs are a new thing to them. Hoping to try the circle hooks that you discussed earlier with dough bait hoping they won't catch them as deep. As always excellent presentation and explanation my fishing knowledge has expanded considerably just watching your videos.
From my perspective a number 14 treble is insane to try and imagine. Only thing I’ve got that small are flies! We get stocked trout in the winter in a few city ponds close by never have thought of even looking for something that small. They don’t seem to mind the larger hooks here. Again like you said these are fish with no wild instincts and we get 0% hold over because of the heat of our summers and well other predator fish. Don’t worry I haven’t forgotten about your power bait situation either I’ve been giving thought to some ideas for you there. As always thank you for taking the time to watch. I appreciate your support!
I imagine that the only reason why I use number 14 is that they recommended between a 16 and a 12 hook from Berkeley themselves. It never occurred to me to try a larger hook that may also reduce the number of Deep hookings in the fish.
Yeah I know with crappie fishing minnows my normal hook is a size 1 but i used to use a smaller size 4 and had more problems with deep gut hooks. Of course I was also using a less sensitive rod then too so not sure which one solved the gut hook problem. The bigger hooks are easier to get a grip on to get out of the fish though
good
Thank you
Now I’m curious how the power snell knot compares to the uni knot snell. I personally do the power snell knot and it seems to be very strong. Good videos btw
Thank you! I need to find time to get to the store and get more 6lb line. Once I can do that I’ll set up and do it! Might wind up doing a bunch of different snell knots compared and maybe run them with both the 6lb and a heavy line as well.
very useful. great detail.
I’m glad you enjoyed it. Hope it helped.
most helpful.
Thanks!
👍 thanks
Your welcome! Being able to pitch has completely changed how I fish for the better.

Hey I’m a pro at catching those!
Finally found it but nice man I like the editing work! Great informational video and I love top water baits. Way to push the og top waters the a lot of youngster probably don’t know about! 🤘🏽🎣
Thanks man, I’d be lost without my topwater stuff. Not sure what software you run or have looked at but this was done with video proc it’s a free one that for now does more than I know how so it works.
Kerja yang bagus saya sangat menyukainya
Terima kasih!
As a lure hook I have found they're pretty much self setting. When used as a bait hook it's pretty much catch and cook. They are not very friendly for catch and release as they do a lot of damage difficult to remove and three times more likely to poke you in the finger.
Yes sir. It’s love hate love them on a lure or if I’m looking to eat fish but hate when you want to release or just trying to get them out. I will say though when it comes to carp they are about all I use.
Thanks for sharing my friend
Not a problem at all thank you for watching!
Easy knot to remember.
It really is reminds me a lot of the nail knot for tying leader to a fly line
