How to make catfish noodles that show when you have a fish on the line. Link to Cotontop3 where he makes a similar noodle: • Making the ULTIMATE ca... SOATMON Blog page: www.Soatmon.com SOATMON Amazon Page: www.amazon.com...
For those who don’t have the tools to easily cut rebar, I built some very similar a few years back and put some long bolts in them. Also did some pea gravel in one and it works great as well. Thanks for the video!
Just finished making my first dozen floats as a gift for my big brother. I also took several pieces of about a 6 inch piece of foam, wrote the line length on it, then wrapped the line, weight, hook, and swivel onto the piece of foam. This way he can swap out line lengths as the water depth dictates. Also, cut 5 (3 inch) pieces of different colored foam and glued them together using waterproof Gorilla Glue to make one piece of 15 inch foam. Gives the float a unique color combination.
Thank you for taking the time to make the video. I have been wanting to try some of these out on Lake Sam Rayburn. I saw some just like these in a cove on the North end and were wondering how they worked. I am definitely going to make some.
Thank you for the video it was very informative I'm starting catfishing noodling next month I've already got a boat and some stuff have a good day. When I say I'm starting I've been fishing all my life but I'm getting started again all over you get the point LOL great video have a good day sir
In Texas, orange is reserved for commercial fishing, us regular folks can use any other color. The problem I see with white is you wind up chasing seagulls and pelicans all over the lake.
No problems they work great. The fish can't get a lot of leverage to pull it out unless he drags it under a log or something. In that instance it would be good to come out as it might float to the top and not remain stuck.
So how are you keeping these from floating away or from fish just running away with them? Forgive the novice question. Id like to set some in our local river but cant wrap my head around keeping the fish in place without a huge weight at the bottom. I have a canoe so donr wanna paddle all day looking for them.
I don't really know. Try putting one together without glue and test the weight, once you get it right you can copy it. When the weight is at the top and you lay it in the water it should lay pretty flat, once the fish trips it, it should stand straight up. You don't want the weight too heavy as the fish will drag it under too easily. You want the noodle to tire out the fish when he tries to drag it under. Good luck!
