This brings childhood memories. In the Caribbean we used to transfer the line from the plastic container to a soda can or thick stick. We did small jobs to buy hooks and we gathered worms and grubs from the area. We got fish left and right Everytime. Thanks for this video. It put a smile on my face 😁
To whoever watches this video - braided line doesn’t become invisible underwater. It’s very widely known in the fishing world as being the most visible line. It’s common for anglers to use a fluorocarbon leader when using braided line to counteract its fish-deterring qualities. I personally use very light clear monofilament line for my emergency kit.
PS I have a small Cuban type set up too that I just put in my bike bags because I plan to go fishing today or tomorrow. Here is a word of advise I learned from Cuban fishermen. Take a piece of inner tube with you to put around your finger so that the line won't cut into you, especially with large fish.
@@jasholden9741 gloves are better than nothing, but generally when fishing with a Cuban reel I keep the line across my index finger and can feel when they are nibbling. The piece of rubber still leaves you that sensitivity, but like I said gloves are better than bare hands. I have seen fishing line cut right into fingers leaving a nasty wound.
I created my first one of those when I was like 8 used spider wire spool. I still have it lol have 4 swivels on it and bottom one I put a sinker on and is further away from the other swivels and the other swivels are equal space apart. I've caught three fish on that rig before.
I was attacked at night by a HUGE gator. I was fishing under a bridge by the Everglades at night. I was fishing under a bridge and standing in the dark. I was reeling in my first cast and was just a couple feet from the waters edge. Just as the top lure was approaching the shore there was a huge splash that had me backtracking double time. It could have been the end of me. I still live in Florida but I try and stay very aware around lakes, rivers, and swamps. I have had as couple of other really close calls, especially at night. So be careful if you are in gator territory. I am currently uploading a video and have others showing some of the gators I have run into.
Would it be possible to use only a spinning reel in similar fashion? The benefit being that the mechanics of the reel already includes correct line tension to drill a fish. I know it absolutely should work for smaller fish, but would bigger fish like pike be an option for such a method as well? Or is there part of the physics of the rod itself that spreads the load in a way the spinning reel itself cannot handle?
I'm little expert on fishing and i need your advice on lines to use on saltwater, surf fishing. at the beginning i will use a yoyo because i like it and in the future i will buy a rod. so my questions is: 1. can i use only fluorocarbon line on yoyo or i need a fluorocarbon leader to attach to it ? 2. is it the best for a yoyo or should i use like braided with fluorocarbon leader ? 3. what sizes do i need for the saltwater ? 4. right now what is the good brand to buy from ?

It's a non native species and he throws it back.I would think you would want to take the invasive species away so it would not hurt the habitat. LOOKED GOOD TO EAT ALSO. didn't mean for the caps!
I hate to bag on the guy but I was thinking the same thing. Where I'm from it's illegal to throw certain fish back, you're supposed to keep or kill them.
He said non native, he never said Invasive. Peacock Cichlids/Bass were intentionally introduced to Florida waters in 1984 by the FWC, they are not invasive, but they are not natives, they are originally South American, generally from Brazil, Guyana, Peru etc. Peacock Bass are a particular favorite fish for Florida anglers and a lot of them do ask that you release Peacock Bass since they've only ever been stocked once when they were originally introduced and have been self sustaining ever since. LOTS of research into the viability of their introduction to Florida waters was done before they were ever introduced and it was decided that it was a worthwhile gamble that has since paid off as it doesn't negatively impact the local ecosystems and it attracts anglers from the world over to fish in the one place where you can catch an Amazonian Fish in the morning and a Sailfish in the afternoon, and then some giant Snook in the evening. I can catch Snook and Sailfish near my island, I'd have to take a flight over to Brazil to catch a Peacock, or just go to Florida.
Best I’ve ever gotten was approximately 120ft. I used the same spool as in the video, with 20lb braid mainline, and 10ft of 10lb mono leader, with a half oz bank weight on the end.
I appreciate everything you guys do on Survival tactics. Out of curiosity, do you guys have any videos on tactical tracking escape and evasion, and trap setting? Or can you do some videos on it?
Good info but your reel in technique is not good my dude. You should try to keep everything inline as much as possible, fishing line can cut the crap out of your hands if you ever hook into something good. I once hooked into a really nice trout that I had to peel off line for, the line cut my hand something fierce but I got that fish.
@@joeyjones9041 look around they got decent poles...you think a 5lb monster will break a rod...like I said...stop pretending...a real fisherman picks his or her spot s when casting
@@swmiu808 Using a handline is one of the oldest forms of fishing... With a simple handline I can cast out just as far as people with spinning reels and be just as accurate. When I want to cast further I have a decent baitcaster for that. Every tool has its use.

@@MrRoman-lo6ih here in brasil we still fish like this
Hey a free hand line reel with every purchase of fishing line.....cool!!!!
Great idea. Ive seen so many pieces of expensive equipment around this topic. Yall just kept it simple and kept it cheap
Thanks!
Idk if you'll see this but this video just changed my life and I appreciate it

I wonder if you could take a heat gun and modify the lip of that spool to be more like a Cuban yoyo... might get a bit more casting distance that way.
I did a Cuban yoyo whit a pice of Walnuts on a late Is fucking fantastic im using It when in in trips and it's working fine
Yes, Ultralight fishing!! I'm using the kite string handle instead 😅. They do have round "reel-like" version with stopper though.

If you attached one of those little zippered doody bag holders you could have a pretty good fishing kit

Its funny you chose to write the thing about the caps instead of deleting what you wrote and write it again. Not a bad thing just found it funny
@@mateopavolininah, I get it. My bbackspace button doesn't w Ork either 😂
How far can you cast with this? Any special technique? Thanks

This is similar to Cuban YoYo
good job
Great catch !!!!! Awesome job ! 😀👍
Cool

Why a jig if you are fishing from shore? I would think either a casting lure, or live bait.
Cause fish eat the heck out of jigs?
You said it was a non native fish, why would you throw it back? Is that not bad for the native fish?
Great tips I need to try this
6:22 nice release 😐
That’s good eating!
Mantap mas broo
Just get that fish in, please!
Climbing rope is dynamic usually about 7% stretch while a rappelling rope is static
Swimming in gator water... This guy's nuts!
cause who likes dragging around a ton of gear and fussing around the dumb stuff. i only handline
Also you can keep multiple handlining setups rdy to go in youre backpack which is a bonus if you plan on targeting different species or techniques
Just buy a proper handline spool. They are really cheap and not as hard on your line.
Yeah but that's another $3 dollars but they are a lot nicer to use just hard to fit in pocket
Good info but your reel in technique is not good my dude.

Nice but didn't need that much explaining
Braid disappears underwater? That's some dodgy advice, mate.
No non native fish should be put back
I don’t trust this guy. Wouldn’t survive…
Talk too much
Just get a damn fishing pole...you get better results...stop pretending
@@joeyjones9041 look around they got decent poles...you think a 5lb monster will break a rod...like I said...stop pretending...a real fisherman picks his or her spot s when casting
Try that in Hawaii haha stop pretending
