Buddy, you never cease to make me laugh, and your content is fantastic! When you torched your line it definitely hit my funny bone. I couldn’t stop laughing! Thanks for the hacks.
Here's one for free since you give out so much great info. To straighten line out get a small patch of leather. With the leather in between your fingers with the rough side in the middle, grip the line with the leather and grip it with a little tension. Pull the fishing line through the leather, as you pull it through the leather it generates heat and straightens your line out. No need for warm water. Thanks for all the info you give us.
The dissolving bag hack was tremendous!!! As always, love Cranky!!! (Thank you for all you do!!! I'm a nurse, and love to decompress watching your videos!!!) Awesome!!!
@Keith Greene your exactly right . Life's short and full of trouble . So i try to laugh as much as possible . I appreciate you watching brother . And thank you for taking care of people at their end . That makes me miss my dad
Awesome perfect timing my son and I just got back He told me to tell you were a big fan of fishing N stuff he’s eight years and you’re our favorite fishing TH-camr
@@FishinNStuff he is ecstatic thank you for saying that his birthday is on the 10th. We’re in east Texas so I’ll see if we can make it out. It’s on the 24th right
Great video, as usual. The anchor line hack, we use to call a "Daisy Chain". Used it when I was working as a lifeguard at summer camp. My favorite way to straighten fishing line is to use a section of bicycle tube. You can get em for free from the bike shop. Fly fisherman has the same material sandwiched between two pieces of leather to straighten out tippet line.
You can use a piece of thin leather to draw your mono thru to relax the memory of the line also just squeeze the line in the leather as you pull line thru it
Straightening your line hack works, but there is another one fly fishermen have been using for years. Take a piece of leather (or I've been known to use good quality shammy), fold it over, pinch it around the line, and pull the line through it. The friction heats it up just enough, when combined with the pressure from pulling it, to make it sort of straight, about like yours did. And you don't need hot water! Keep it up!
I put my anchor & rope in a 5-gal bucket with a Screw Top Lid. I also store some other things in the bucket with the anchor & rope between fishing trips. The bucket storage helps keep the rope contained and avoids becoming a tripping hazard in my boat
The Dollar Tree, Harbor Freight and Walmart need to start sponsoring your Fishin N stuff videos. I have bought tons of your fishing hack materials there and I wonder how many others have done same thanks to you.
Love your tips. However, I’ll point out that your point of the Velcro straps, can be done with “plant tie” also occasionally available at dollar stores.
Trying to decide which is greater in your videos: - The entertainment OR - The information... ...either way, your videos are worth watching! God bless ALL of us! WWG1WGA
Ive done the back to back velcro for a couple years - great minds think alike. And the water soluble bags, too. Goin old school with the hot water trick to straighten line! Always glad to see a new hack video from you!
Your right great minds do think alike lol . I know the warm water thing is old but occasionally I'll think about something and think 🤔 I never done that lol . I'm kinda old and it's amazing what I take for granted , thinking everyone knows that . But im usually wrong lol . So i had to teach myself not to think like that . Fishing is a forever growing sport . The velcro thing just got me one day , one of this why didn't I think of that sooner things lol
@@FishinNStuff I totally get you. THere are a lot o gthings that seem new - but they aint - or just a wrinkle on something old. Speaking of that, You should see the abomination bait catapult I rigged up to go with the PVA bags. LOL You are the best
"CHINAMANESE name"!!!! Man, I fell off my chair from laughing so hard with tears from my eyes. Not only did you show us your awesome hacks but you added a bit of comedy to it. It was an icing on a cake. You really made my day. Thank you sir!
Best rod holders ever!. I use them for all mine. I like staggering the reels so the don't hit. The magnet deal is cool. The warm water deal works good. I bring my reels in occasionally and run hot water over the spools and it helps a lot with twist. Great video!
Don’t you folks just love this guy , funny fantastic hacks never ending, oh that anchor rope loopy doopy thing we called it the parachute well young man just keep on coming
Ha ha Fry day. That reminds me I could devour a mess of breem with crispy tails right about now with some hush puppies and slaw. Your fishin hack videos are making me hungry.
If your fishing current/river the dissolving bag hack is totally different. The jello powder chicken feed would create a trail to the feed pile / baited hook
Yeah I also use braid almost exclusively too. And not many South Africans I know like to use it. So a video about any tips or hacks would be much appreciated. P.S. love your content and humour. Thank you.
I made it . I make all kinds of stuff this is the video th-cam.com/video/dB779yWCP90/w-d-xo.html If you click on the round icon you'll go to my channel and you can see em all
That rod holder can be filled up no matter the rods/reels. In case the rods/reels get too close to each other just shift every other one up/down by a foot or so - that way your reels have enough space. If you have super wide reels you could even do three different heights for even more clearance - you don't need the rods to equally meet the bottom part after all since there is none! :)
If you want to put wet ingredients (canned sweetcorn for instance) in the PVA bag, soak the ingredients in salted water or oil of some sort and the ingredients wont blow a hole in the bag. Over here (Ireland / UK) we can also get PVA mesh bags which sink faster and breakdown fast too !! 😎👍☘️🍺
I use my kern dog and fudgsicle sticks to mix 2 part epoxy with, just wash,dry and place in a qt ziplock baggie along with tubes of epoxy, and also couple pieces of aluminum foil folded up in baggie to mix on is helpful too. Throw baggie in junk drawer or glove box for quick fixes M L Rogers Pasadena,Tx
Thank you very much for this video I couldn't stop laughing when you got the blow torch and burned the monofilament line lol 😂😂😂 Im switching to braided fishing line soon
Hack number 5 is what I call Daisy Chain. Been roofer for over 50 years been doing that for decades now. I daisy chain all my drop cords, air hoses etc. .
CatHackman Keith, you are da man!!!✊️ I believe you could hang a 40lb anchor from that rod holder now and it wouldn't go anywhere 😆 Love your fishin hacks my friend👍👍 your brother from another mother here in Cabarrus County 🤜🤛 Jay.
Thank you Sir . It's plenty strong enough for crappie rods , that's why I bought it . But if I was to put my bigger stuff in it I'd use a few more magnets . The sheet metal walls are to thin
I saw you make rod wraps out of Velcro by sticking the two strips together, well I found on Amazon a roll of velcro one wrap 12’ long x 3/4” wide just cut it to length and yer good to go. Check it out.
Oh, and want a hack for the anchor? Skip the cord keeper and focus on adding an eye on the center of the bottom. Shackle your chain here and use zip ties or bailing wire at the top of the shank to fasten the chain to the eye where you'd normally connect the shackle. It may take a couple tries but you find just how strong you need to make that breakaway, its different for every boat and ground tackle. This works for any anchor, a grapple like that or a regular Danforth, even ploughs. Anchor hangs up and the extra strain causes the chain to pop off the shank and the anchor is pulled from the back end, clearing it from pretty much any snag and without bending the shank.
@@FishinNStuff Lol Fryday Fish I'm sort of jealous I have 4 rods and 5 reels I use for trout and salmon fishing Tonnes of spoons, spinners, and rapalas. But I make lyman lures. The salmon and trout hate/love them. I love watching your videos. Great content and funny as well 👍❤️🐟👍❤️🐟👍❤️🐟👍❤️🐟
Another way to straighten out leader line is cut off a piece of computer mouse pad. Fold the piece in half, rubber side to rubber side, then run the leader through the pad squeezing it, repeat until leader is straightened out. Sounds more complicated than it is. Even able to keep a piece of the pad in the fishing box
We've all seen bobber stops on wire, yes? How about something like that for beads? Take a paperclip (size depends on size of bead) and needle nose pliers (jeweler ones if you can sneek them out of mamma's crafts box). There are two bends in the clip, one big and one small. Straighten out the paperclip but only the larger, or outer, loop. Thread on your beads leaving a good 1/2" free. Take your pliers and using just the tip, crimp that 1/2" tip in an "S" pattern, making it necessary that you must assist the bead's removal with you fingers. This keeps the bead strip straight and tangle free while still being assured you won't lose more than one if you drop it. Can't wait to hit the water this spring, lol. Oh, and word to the wise, never buy your beads at the tackle shop. Hit the crafts store or even a dedicated bead shop if you live near one. The color, selection, and most importantly, price cannot be beaten by any tackle shop I've ever been to. Date night? He he!
Your right . I've done a few hack videos about beads and I think my favorites were the silicone beads . They are soft and really protect your knot good
another thing you can use for your anchor line, is the orange reel used to roll up extinction cords. should hold about 100 ft of 3/8th line. or you can use that reel for kite sting too :)
Do not use dried corn or other grains. The grains will swell in the fish and kill them if your cpr fishing. Make sure to pre boil and add a couple tablespoons of salt this will keep if from melting the bag.
Buddy, you never cease to make me laugh, and your content is fantastic! When you torched your line it definitely hit my funny bone. I couldn’t stop laughing! Thanks for the hacks.

The rope hack is called a "foundation chain" in crochet, minus the slipknot at the beginning. Good idea.

If your fishing current/river the dissolving bag hack is totally different. The jello powder chicken feed would create a trail to the feed pile / baited hook
Those Velcro straps could be used as a line keeper too. I used rubber bands but the velcro probably has a longer life
I miss Harbor Freight.. my rural area only has Tractor supply and some Tri county stores 😪...
Good stuff as always, buddy!! Some real useful stuff here!!
It would be awesome if you could do an entire video on braid line hacks. I use braid exclusively. Well, not on my crappie and other pan fish rigs.

Great video as usual brother 👍
Lol thank you Sir
I always braid my cords never thought to do my anchor line , thanks for the idea 💡
yeah, extension cords... anchor line ...similar size?
...my guess, ..depends on the cord and anchor...
...old cord = new anchor line?
In the navy that knot is called a sea painter.....they are used when putting boats in on the fly
I like the dissolving bags. But I think u would have to carry a rag to dry your line off when rebaiting. But I like the idea
With that dissolvable bag, the current of the water will carry all that stuff around so that is a damn good idea!
I like to trickle the hot water over the spool after line change, it seems to adapt to the shape of the new spool reducing twist. 🍻CHEERS
Your fishing lure always cracks me up even when it’s a smart, Alec! Great video as always Keith!
Thank you Sir
It’s a wallbass
Yep, don't know who is funnier, Keith, or Cranky. Love 'em both!

Thanks yet again friend
Hey what rod is that in the rod holder with the orange accented plueger? Looks like a custom but I really like the looks of it
What is the purpose of the water bags? Just a attractant to get them close to the actual hook I assume?
I recently got a casting rod holder, and it is awesome. It uses friction hold and holds up to 12 rods.
Your Hellcat rod collection is awesome 👌

Do not use dried corn or other grains.
The grains will swell in the fish and kill them if your cpr fishing. Make sure to pre boil and add a couple tablespoons of salt this will keep if from melting the bag.
