For an even less expensive weight slide, use the soft tygone tubing and paper clip. You had the soft red tubing. Most hardware stores have lengths of the clear soft tubes. About 1/2” of tube with paper clip works great for a slide. I haven’t purchased a bobber stop in years. Most stores carry packages of little rubber bands in the hair care section. Do a full hitch around the line and pull it tight. Instant bobber stop. You can even trim the excess loop and it will stay in place for multiple fish. A couple hundred bobber stops for about $1.29.
As always, you never disappoint; just great content and great humor; what more could any fisher want? Exxxxcept, maybe a dancing bunny singing "let's go Brandon" And that right there is awwwwwesome!
Lol . I always try and throw in the memes that are trending, it's just about making people laugh. One person is already fussing about it being political , they must of not have been subscribed too long lol
Me and my cousin are on the opposite sides when it comes to politics and we have expressed our feelings, from time to time, over the years (60++++++)This cause some friction, but he's my kin, so we continued to interact. Here of late we have been interacting more and more, because we both love to fish, just like I did with his Daddy (who had the same beliefs as his son, or vice versa.) Now we don't even mention politics, as I did with his Daddy. We know where we stand, we know who we are, without a word. What this taught me was, I could miss an opportunity , whatever it may be, like talking about fishing, with a family member, co-worker , neighbor, friend, or random stranger over something as simple as my , or their politics. How dumb is that, jus sayin. Our world is too weird anymore. I read an article, today, where a guy shot his neighbor because he thought his politics was different than his. (Happened in Ohio) Then I read an article where a guy injured a bunch of people at a rally, yep same thing. How buggered up is that? So what am I trying to say here? Danged if I know, maybe just food for thought. Don't normally respond to videos or the likes. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest. Thank a Veteran today, they are entitled 👍. Enjoyed the video. Stuff I'll use, fur shur. Fish On.........
Take a Coffee stir straw cut it up . Also that little spout on the WD-40 when the can gets empty cut the Spout up for Sinker Stops . Good Idea`s Enjoyed it
I think you gotta leave some more slack in your chain between the zip tie and the attachment point on the bottom of the anchor. Maybe that would help it break that zip tie a little easier if you get it stuck
Man you have gots to be the funniest fisherman there is cause you as a fisherman hacker are unbelievable to funny. I wish that I could have gone fishing with you cause I like to hang out with funny people like you. 👍 You're the best man .
I been using the release clips and cannon ball weights for years for walleye fishing no secret to walleye fisherman you can go on the internet and find graphs that will tell you what ounce weight and how much line to run to find the depth you want to target fish keep up the good work I always like seeing ideas of other fisherman to get ideas of my own thanks again on good ideas
Thank you Keith another great video. Another thing you can do with the X tube wrap is cover a tiller handle with it I have a 1992 Evinrude 25 tiller that the handle cushion was coming off and it was hard to get a comfortable grip I took some of the 45 or 50mm wrap slid it over the tiller handle shrank it down and BAM a new tiller grip and I used red to make it more visible an easier to find at night or in a hurry it stands out .
Those silicone beads can be pulled over the swivel a bit and completely cover the knot. This will give you complete protection from any wear or abrasion
I just found your videos. These are a blast, lifting my mood from darkness to enjoyment. Difficult to stop watching. Thanks for what you are doing here. I survive on 800 bucks a month disability income and definatly need ways to save money and/or stretch a dollar. Wish I had a pedal kayak but thats a dream only as I never seem to get ahead. This July had emergency triple bypass heart surgery. Good surgeon apparently. 🤪😊😎😎 Keep the videos posting. I'm not the only one who needs these for sure.
Hey fella I would like to thank you for helping me find interest in fishing again. In May after the ice is gone I think I will go try again, Thankyou 🙂👍
Saltwater slow trolling I use rubberbands with bank sinkers to keep my rigs down. Just break the band off when you get it to the rod and then reel the fish on in.
HAhahaha that rabbit made my day, Even had mr 5yr old laughing. Thanx 4 your time and everything doing these fishing hacks.Much love from south aussie. God bless!
2:10 I have been using these bobber stops from Bass Pro for about 15 years or so. I’m a bass fisherman & I would have to go to the pan fish section to find them. Then I was doing Rep work for my tournament sponsor at BPS & told them ti stock them with the bass weights. They did & they started selling out of them shortly after.
Thanks Keith for the awesome videos!!!! I have challenge for you and I think you are the perfect guy for it. Could u build a portable DIY u.v charge box lined with some sort of reflective material for lures, spoons ,flasher ,flies and other u.v fishing gear? I have seen a few home made ones but I bet you could build something way nice help tons of us out. Thanks
Makes a lot of sense for that paperclip. I bottom fish for Rockfish and Halibut and because we use like 80 pound braid we needed a weak point in case we hung up. So I went with a 40 pound line for my weight since 9 times out of 10 it was the weight getting stuck between rocks. Save a lot of expensive rigs by just losing the weight
Fishin N Stuff man I had a good time at the KC CatCon! Wish you could of made it. The family and I will be in Kentucky in February. Hope to see you at CatCon there
You are the man I enjoy watching your ax and you come up with some great ideas yeah I thought about the paper clips also with the price of everything now you have to use office supplies outside the office and fisherman or in their office when they're on the water. God bless you and the family and keep those hacks a coming
I am so glad I watched this video because I was trying to figure out how I was going to prevent my pet egg flow from pulling all the line in my bait ending up on the surface.
Love your hacks ! Been cutting inch or so pieces of cheap gas line hose for swivel/ sliding weight bumpers for 30 years for cat fishing , works great . …. You do a good job brother !…… Fish on !
Love your videos. Hope to see ya 2022 kansas city catfish conference. I hope you can make it. It would be awesome and stuff if you did a seminar and stuff. Keep up the great content.
What is even cheaper for weights is if you use a cotter pin, open it a bit put it over your line then put it through the hole in a large nut ( as in a nut and bolt) then open the cotter pin all the way so it can't slide off. if the nut get snagged the cotter pin will bend closed, the nut comes off. Another benefit to this is you aren't polluting the water with lead
I love the paper clip idea! The rod handle cover are awesome too!!!! Thanks for the great ideas and keep up the awesome content! Best youtuber ever!!!!!!!!
I use safety pins (I grabbed a few one time from the wife's sewing stash) because I didn't want to stop on the way to the lake. They have done right by me ever since.
Keith...another awesomely awesome fishin hack video my friend. Am really excited to try out the silicone beads and the sniper skin on a couple of my "tired" but still fishable rod handles. Keep up the great work and congrats on the ever growing # of subscribers. If you build it, they will come.
A hack I like is spray flex seal. You can buy a cheap net and spray it with flex seal and rubber coat it cheap. Also spray large singers so they don’t knock paint of ya boat. Spray anchor chain you can spray yourself if you get carried away
Love your video's! ❤ You keep me laughing, FJB!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 AND I really love your hacks. I told all three of my nephews about your video's, TH-cam channel. AWESOME!!! Have you heard of CTJ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣⛵⚓🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
up here where we live we use a very small split shot to hold the sliding egg sinker or any sliding sinker away from the knot about 8 inches up works great and nothing comes close to the knot on the swivel
I used these with the Team Catfish weight slides to make a th-cam.com/users/postUgkxdmsDj7fQXe77DC0l7P7ua8B3PiESUubM Carolina rig and they were perfect for the ponds I fish. I have also used them to make 3 way rigs and these work perfectly. Haven't had any issues with them snagging in rocks or in weeds yet.
Tiny binder clips work for slides and then you have 2 hangers for the weights. Also air hose from your live well stone will be small enough for a knot protector. Youve really changed the way I look at my fishin' gear. Hack on man! 8646!
I really like your channel. You've come up with so many good ideas I was afraid you might be running out of them. I see you got some recent videos to the contrary, but keep them coming.
Great video, silicone beads are a great idea, though I would put a hard plastic bead between the weight and silicone bead, this would allow for the clicking sound Carolina rigs are noted for,,,,
OMG Keith that LGB and Bunny was over the top brother! 🤣
Lol
All these diy videos keeps the dollar tree close to my house in business
Funny that the eastwr bunny had to save that old fool. Hahaha
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 bro you had me in tears with the bunny .. great video as always .appreciate the hacks! 🎣💯💪🏽

People are way to touchy Feely for sure . I just try and help people and make people laugh. It's like a medicine the Bible says
Take a Coffee stir straw cut it up . Also that little spout on the WD-40 when the can gets empty cut the Spout up for Sinker Stops . Good Idea`s Enjoyed it
I can watch your videos all day long. I appreciate it. LGB

Got me with the bunny. Good hacks, good laughs.
You are funny as well as smart on making things and showing us your ideas thanks for the great videos
Thank you Sir
Great Video. I use wine corks to hold my bait up off the bottom. Works well for me and free.
Thank you Keith another great video.

That's really a good idea man
@@FishinNStuff if you want put it in a hack video I would be proud if it helped save a fellow fisherman or boater some money
Those silicone beads can be pulled over the swivel a bit and completely cover the knot. This will give you complete protection from any wear or abrasion
Very cool!! Those heat shrink covers might be good tool handle grips too. Thanks!
I agree
Thank you Brandon! And bunnies.

Keep the videos posting. I'm not the only one who needs these for sure.
I'm glad I make you laugh . My wife laughs at me all the time and I'm not even being funny 🤔
The innertube over the chain, you could use wire ease (a jell electricians use to fish wires through conduit, slick as snail snot).
Great video. The shrink tube for rod handles were just food for thought! Keep um coming, many great hacks.
Hey fella I would like to thank you for helping me find interest in fishing again. In May after the ice is gone I think I will go try again, Thankyou 🙂👍
Taste great . The stress of life gets bad especially now days . It's good to have hobbies that take our mind off of things
I’ve been using grey screen tubing to make cheap buffers between the weight and hook/ swivel. You can make them any length you like.
9:15 I appreciate you. Thank you for sharing your skills knowledge and experience
Saltwater slow trolling I use rubberbands with bank sinkers to keep my rigs down. Just break the band off when you get it to the rod and then reel the fish on in.
TA DAY! You made me want to go waaaaaay back and start at your first video and watchem all again! Stay safe and healthy!
You to buddy

Your the best !!!!! Thank You James Fisher

Everything needs a weak point , even reels have drag because of that . We're I fish 40lbs ain't weak though dang 😮
Lmmfao this is one of the best videos ever. You have a great sense of humor.
Thank you Sir

Keith...another awesomely awesome fishin hack video my friend. Am really excited to try out the silicone beads and the sniper skin on a couple of my "tired" but still fishable rod handles. Keep up the great work and congrats on the ever growing # of subscribers. If you build it, they will come.
I loved that movie 😁
@@FishinNStuff Ya...me too...its one of those movies that instantly makes you watch when you are channel surfing.
Happy New year buddy...hope 2022 brings you nothing but tight lines and sure hook sets!
My handles on my older stuff are cork that sniper stuff would protect it
Great idea for that bead!!
What can you dye foam bobbers with,and how to seal them? Love your videos.
Love jour hacks men nice diy
Love your videos, great content and sense of humor
Thank you I appreciate it
A hack I like is spray flex seal. You can buy a cheap net and spray it with flex seal and rubber coat it cheap. Also spray large singers so they don’t knock paint of ya boat. Spray anchor chain you can spray yourself if you get carried away
Lol . Yeah I've sprayed myself before lol . Ive done all those other things too on past videos
Love your video's! ❤ You keep me laughing, FJB!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 AND I really love your hacks. I told all three of my nephews about your video's, TH-cam channel. AWESOME!!! Have you heard of CTJ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣⛵⚓🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I don't think so ?
This man is "AWESOME"! I really like his channel and hacks. .......( Any body that don't like his stuff is a SOB.) Lets go Brandon!!!!
I second this comment
👍👍👍😜🏴🦕🙂🤞✌
Amazing!! I can’t stop laughing.. didn’t expect that.. but love it…
Still upset Joe kicked Trump's ass in 2020!
I want to go fishing with you guys! That would be AWESOME!
Lmao! Let's see it with the bunny. Had me rolling!
up here where we live we use a very small split shot to hold the sliding egg sinker or any sliding sinker away from the knot about 8 inches up works great and nothing comes close to the knot on the swivel
You can rig up silicone beads in stack on wire like the bobber stops and it will make it easier to put silicone beads on line😊
Liked for the Brandon and the bunny
I used these with the Team Catfish weight slides to make a th-cam.com/users/postUgkxdmsDj7fQXe77DC0l7P7ua8B3PiESUubM Carolina rig and they were perfect for the ponds I fish. I have also used them to make 3 way rigs and these work perfectly. Haven't had any issues with them snagging in rocks or in weeds yet.
We always used rubber bands, just cut in half then tie on and then cut end off. Works well and it's soft.
G'day mate luv the anchor idea was waiting for the table to go arse up 😆
😆😆
Now they are so excellent fishing Hacks 👍🎣👍🎣, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.
made my day with LGB!!!! truly truly awsome! im buying some silicon beads too.
Lol thank you Sir
Would love to see some kind of keel guard for a boat hack! Love this channel.
I've been thinking about that believe it or not
Yes,let's go brandon.👍🏻
Tiny binder clips work for slides and then you have 2 hangers for the weights.
Also air hose from your live well stone will be small enough for a knot protector.
Youve really changed the way I look at my fishin' gear. Hack on man!
8646!
Thank you Sir I always appreciate the tips people leave me . I love like minded people that think outside the box
Liked it all. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing.
Keep em coming Keith, they just keep getting better!!!
Thank you Lyle
Everything you show is amazing an it always works thank you for all you share
I really like your channel. You've come up with so many good ideas I was afraid you might be running out of them. I see you got some recent videos to the contrary, but keep them coming.
I get busy and get behind some weeks . Working and doing this get hard but believe me I've got tons of ideas wrote down lol
@@FishinNStuff wow love your ideals your a fishing ideal / inventory, master keep on keeping on ty for your help making my fishing better and easier
Great video, silicone beads are a great idea, though I would put a hard plastic bead between the weight and silicone bead, this would allow for the clicking sound Carolina rigs are noted for,,,,
That's true
Man, gotta love this stuff......and FJB ! HAHAHAHA, you never disappoint. Thanks, God Bless and Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving
The USA flag shrink wrap for fishing rods is very cool. Thanks for sharing Keith, Happy Thanksgiving
