Man that new drifting, draggin ,slinky style weight is the way to go. I dont trust the 1 with just heat shrink and swivel, but the 1 Nu Skool did with mashing the lead and putting a hole with the swivel looks like the way to go. GREAT Idea guys, Ill be making my next bunch up like this. Thanks and Great idea. Keep the videos coming
Just wanted to update and let your followers know found something else to use in the drift weights I saw where someone used BBS instead of the lead shot as every one has noticed lead any thing is hard to find ! I bought 6000 steel BBS Daisy brand at wall mart cost under $7.00 bottle has two pour openings it takes 84 to make 1 once for those without a scale weight of the tube material not big issue hope this helps y’all tight lines
Awesome collaboration you guys, will be making these for sure! Really like the lead core around rods while underway and the rattler cork! Running Lates gonna ROCK these ideas.
First time I seen them made was muddyriver fishermen great guy Kris is. But yea I like the way you did alot easier. I've got some from the store. Got over 12 years ago it was wire with lead in the middle few inches and the wire so small did good but I haven't used in years in being haven't been in boat in years. But I do want to make some of these kids just to have and show off to others that may be curious. I believe even thought you don't use them to have them you can teach others about them. But great video loved it. Have a good week. God bless
Steelhead river fishermen have been using the punched lead for 30 plus years check out lead master pliers the closer you punch the hole to the edge makes the lead break off easier so you don't lose your whole rig
I knew steelhead fishermen came up with it , and catfishing kind of integrated it into their sport. But I didn't know about those pliers that's a good idea man . I like the shrink tube myself , ppl were saying it would break off but that's why I liked it . Because you won't lose your whole rig
I know you didn't just say that to him 😁. You can't wear that here. Great video. Lately I've been using the solid core wire for Striper & Catfish. Same method except without the paracord / shrink wrap. Got the idea from Salmon Anglers. Awesome tips bud. Thanks for sharing 👍💪👊😎🎣
I use 1/2” cpvc. Heat one end up, dab some glue on it and clamp it shut until it dries.make it as long as u want it, put as much shot in it as you want, heat the other end up, dab some glue on and clamp it shut. Drill hole for a swivel. You can heat the middle up and put a bend in it if you want. Also it rattles. Cheap and easy.
Another great project! I've got plenty of pieces of that rope laying around, lots of swivels, and now I know where to get the lead line roll! Love the channel, keep it up.
Very helpful video, I just picked up several great ideas! PLEASE my friend make yourself a wood jig to hold those bobber floats when you bandsaw them. I'm a cabinet maker and cringed when I saw you with your fingers so close to that blade. Be safe and eet mor katfish!
Thank you , I live trolling for everything . I never trolling 5 years ago but once I started its hard toi beat someone trolling . I worked harder on the Audio for you buddy lol
Good video and I appreciate the link to the lead core wire. Am I reading the price and doing the math right in figuring these sinkers are about $1 a piece if they are two ounces each??
That's what I figured too , that's a lot better than 3 dollars for a drifting stix weight . Or even comes in cheaper than the paracord weights . But still the selling point too me , what makes me like em so much is the time saving . I could put 5 of these together by the time I make 1 paracord slinky weight
I have soft core lead ingots that i made from lead i bought at the scrap yard. if i came up with some kind of mold to pour the lead in lets say 2'' strips i wonder if it would work just as well.
I believe it would , you know Jeff Manning has a video about making pencil weight molds . Some Aluminum and a 1/4" drill bit and I think you could make these too
I agree and many of the things they use in catfishing like say the Aluminum reel base rods started in saltwater fishing but most ppl don't realize that lol , thanks for commenting brother

I like the second way mashing the lead end then covering with the paracord to protect your rod.
Very cool. Thanks for the information

It really is if you use any kind of no snag weights
I use Kris floris's Timber king cobra drift weights

Yep I always run into him at the lake over here
Great ideas, nicely done
Thank you brother , I really meant all I said and I know you've made your share on drifting weights lol . I love how fast they are to make
@@FishinNStuff as a matter of fact I have made a few!
😜 well if you ain't trolled for catfish , then you a 1 trick pony lol
Been testing all your diy ideas for these weights. Try 1/4" ID fuel line, bead inside at ends for plug, BBs and heat shrink!
My favorite so far is the solid core . It's fast , easy , and it works
@@FishinNStuff haven't tried that yet. I was using stuff I had laying around. I do have plumbing solder. Imma try it tonight
It works good , maybe not better but just as good as most . But I love how easy they are

@@FishinNStuff Not much but may do more of it. Thanks

Just subbed to Nu Skool and ordered the lead🤘🤘I fish from the bank but I have a idea.
Very Nice!!! I'm on it!
Man I like several different drift weights but these are just too easy not to use

Thank you
I have soft core lead ingots that i made from lead i bought at the scrap yard. if i came up with some kind of mold to pour the lead in lets say 2'' strips i wonder if it would work just as well.
I believe it would , you know Jeff Manning has a video about making pencil weight molds . Some Aluminum and a 1/4" drill bit and I think you could make these too
Cool video, but lead and those plastic ropes are polluting waters if snagged and snapped. Steel is cheaper and not as polluting as lead imo.
Now the only thing i need to figure out is how to turn all the scrap lead I have into flexible lead core! Then my only cost would be the paracord.
If you figured out a way to do it, I'd love to hear about it.
nice tips ! is the shrink tubing the same size as your solid lead or does it have to be a little larger in diameter?
I use the same size but it's harder to slide it in. You can go bigger
Great video!!!! Many of your DYI for freshwater fishing can be applied to Saltwater fishing...
I agree and many of the things they use in catfishing like say the Aluminum reel base rods started in saltwater fishing but most ppl don't realize that lol , thanks for commenting brother
Fishin N Stuff I collect fishing Tshirts!!! Love that Blue one... Send me Da’ Link
I'll send it as soon as some more come in shouldn't take long
Nice diys
What size is the shrink tube?
Is the shrink tube 1/4” for that 1/4” lead…or go with the 5/16” shrink tube? Thanks, bro
I used 1/4 before but it's tight . I use the 5/16
I would like to see your complete setup and how you fish it! Thanks
I talked about it more on this video .
th-cam.com/video/P_K3IGLYAQE/w-d-xo.html
They actually have a set of pliers that will flatten and punch a hole in it so you can cut as you go based off the conditions
Thanks pretty dang cool . I like the shrink tubing. I get colors to match my rods lol
@@FishinNStuff i usually get the black...but, I like the cord...may have to tey that one.
@@FishinNStuff when you make your slinky, what weight slinky do you use for your math 6.5"=2 oz?
That's pretty close , they don't have to be perfect but that will put you really close too 2 oz
I have tried to find solid core lead in Australia and on internet with no luck - wher do you get this?
www.amazon.com/dp/B003OCAFEC/ref=cm_sw_r_u_apa_glt_fabc_PV7NJ1R4ABEFNZY6SX9W
So what’s better, the slinky or the drift stick, I might just have to make both…
Dang you dudes are bored get out and fish it's good for you😎👍
Ol yeah lol . That's the point of this video less time making weights and more time fishing 👍

Where do you buy the heat shrink and paracord.
Amazon
👍🏼
They make a tool for cutting the solid core that pinches the end flat and also puts a hole in the lead. Looks just like a pair of pliers
What it called
I like the idea, but using lead is forbidden by law where I fish, any substitutes for the lead ?
Where do you live ? Most American state only forbid lead usage if they are under 1/2 oz . And of course lead shot for water fowl
