Thanks to BamaBass, I’m now addicted to these pond vids

We build traps like this a lot here in Jersey to remove and rehome turtles. You may want to make it a bit shallower. If you are looking to rehome them. The deeper will cause them to struggle and may cause them to drown.

Hey Rob, great vid but Im gonna try and warn you about the floating deer blind. I have a decently large floating dock on a pond, and ive attempted to shoot deer rifles off of it before. Not to say that it can't be done, but even if theres very little wind, any slight movement of the dock makes it very difficult to get an accurate shot with any decent magnification at a distance. When you're looking down that scope, any slight movement of the dock causes the cross hairs to sway which can mean huge error at distance.

So cool seeing mister zaladin or however you spell Chris’s last name love to see him as part of the channel for a episode

That minno y’all pulled out of the pond is called a mosquito fish. They are great for your pond and the bass will eat them up. They get about an inch long and multiply like crazy.

my father was a prolific lake fisherman , brown trout , salmon , and 50+ lb pike . he thought my brother to fish as i was more into chasing parked cars . really enjoy your vids Rob , be safe from Dublin Ireland

Another great video new home looking amazing and looking forward for the progress on the lake and land

Thanks for the video, ponds are hot right now! I hope we get to see what you catch in the turtle trap.

Great video. Thank you for sharing

So stoked to see Zaldain in the video!

What percentage of pvc sold is actually used for plumbing and not for all the crazy projects and solutions people come up with?😂😂😂😂

Always a good day when we get a video

Absolutely love the floating deer blind idea!

Hey a little tip on the PVC glue once you're done using them turn them upside down and let them sit and next time you use them they won't harden up on you when you go to unscrew them

it's starting to turn spicy already and it's only just begun to take place

Took till 12:27 to see actual pond for those wondering

Don't know about a floating blind, but a family friend has a strip of land that backs the nature preserve on the lake. Something about shooting towards the preserve and hunting with in a certain amount of yards from the boundary. So they went out into the lake shooting towards their own property from a pontoon. The big boys never showed, they did get a nice Doe. I'm sure people have hunted from islands shooting towards shore and boats, so a dedicated boat blind, absolutely. Don't forget to get orange life vests.

You could just get a layout boat and use that as your blind. Or just go full in on a Mud Boat.

I wanna see that floating deer blind🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Throw out some native wildflower seeds to attract more bugs. Be good for the pollinators too

Just what I was looking for, we have the most turtles I have ever seen this year in our pond located in Dallas. Thanks for information

In 1980 my Granpa gave me a bolt action .22 to take care of the turtles and Cotton mouths. I was a 10 year old sniper. Still have the rifle in my safe. From Mckinney so probably near your pond.

👍

If that dont work do two storys of pvc it will float higher in the water and will keep the turtles from climbing out

Floating deer blind with holes in the bottom to simulate some Texas Ice Fishing, ive never heard of a better idea

So I'm the same way with home improvement stores. Problem is when u finally figure out where everything is they change up the location and ur screwed. So I usually just find it on their website and it gives an isle #, almost everytime you do ask for help and nobody knows where it is anyways or what ur talking about.

Damn i hate those pvc glue lids🤣

I thought this was a Bama bass video. Good trickery releasing Sunday night with that thumbnail.

Definitely a largemouth. I just looked up largemouth bad fry and that is exactly what they look like. Kinda clear with the lateral line and that silverish spot on their stomach

I think a floating blind would be cool got to do something wile you sit watching for deer why not fish and hut combo

Have to check Texas/Oklahoma law (idr what state this property is in) about shouting deer from the water. If it's GTG it'll be a banger....

That tiny fish you got was 1/10th the size of the smallest fish you planted yesterday.

Floating deer blind sounds awesome

Use traps but you can also have target practice. Turtles do fly! Turtles have little claws. They can climb up a board no problem.

PVC pipe cleaner is red in Australia, how interesting!

Going to lowes over home depot tells me everything i need to know. He doesnt build much 😂

Those zip ties holding the grate on will be snapping after a month or two. Shoulda done metal.

Enjoying these Sweet Succulent uploads!

That's definitely a Bass minnow 😂👍

Leave an opening on floor inside the floating blind so you can fish and hunt at same time

Get lowes app will tell you if in stock and what aisles it in.

You guys should do a video of a 1v1 in Puerto Rico with indigenous species of fish

The fry kinda looked like a mud minnow to me. If you built the pond with a creek runoff it’s possible that it came from there.

You will hate the master shower pan sliced rock floor, because the water will pool in the grout. My husband’s a custom home tile installer and has replaced many shower pan floors that had that same tile. Just think about your decision before it’s too late.

Definitely put some dead fish in the trap to bait them in

May have to put 4 more pvc pipes under the ones you got. Get it up out of the water some so they can’t crawl out . Great idea you have though.

Almost 100% sure that is largemouth bass fry. Crazy for this time of year but not impossible

U should of put a trail cam to watch the turtle trap

Make it to were you can pull the boat into the blind. Then go sit in your chair and wait for the thirty pointer

You may want to ask your contractor to start covering your floors. I can't imagine they wont get scratched up with all the debris on there and you still have a ways to go.

I searched for images of baby bass fry and that's what that was for sure!

A turtle can easily climb over PVC. Itll use the net for leverage

Definitely miss u on "speak the truth".

I wonder how many turtles it'll take on the 2x6 to weigh it down enough to let some of the trapped turtles escape....

Just a heads up, you don't need primer if it's not going to be under pressure.

Make it a floating deer blind with ice fishing style removable ports in the floor so you can fish while you hunt.

I just started asking for help on finding things but the advice don’t need it thanks man unless your older than me I don’t want your advice haha

Best videos!

great video brotha

No one should ever wander aimlessly. Every big box store has a website to tell you exactly where to go. Plus they have this cool thing called signs the beginning and end of every isle telling you where things are

Im not sure about your state, but ive never seen a floating deer blind in Canada because its illegal. Just a thought.....

As a former pool man please leave the pump alone 😅😅😅

Still waiting for you to get back on Speak the truth for a visit ROB banana gang misses you!!!!

🍻🍻

Who supplied the lumber for your new house? Was it Big D Lumber? If so, my brother-in-law and his dad owned that

In most states it's illegal to hunt deer from the water, not sure about Oklahoma

In some states, it's illegal to hunt deer from a boat or float.

Awesome and Yeahh he’s right that’s a bass fry❤❤❤😂😂😂

2:08 You have the exact opposite in ny... you cant get help for a DAMN thing... and you need employees because everything more than 75 bucks is locked up

Rob those are 90 degree angles

Use bailing wire

I'm pretty sure that little fish is a monnow called a mosquito eater

Floating deer blind! Add a trolling motor and it sounds like a Oklahoma drive by to me! 😂🤣😂

*No zip ties were harmed in the making of this video*

If you do a floating blind you can do a cast and blast video

When are you going to make an appearance on STT podcast?

why do turtles hurt the lake u are building rob ? i am curious. i guess i just figured they would be good for eco systems

Just pvc primer? No glue? You should have asked for help🤣

Won't your recently added bait fish go over the spillway?

Now we need you to get back to Speak the Truth!

Lowe’s app will use your location, it’ll know you’re in a store and will tell you what isle and bay to find the item.

Put bait in the turtle trap👍👍

sometimes birds transplant fish to new water ways

aint gunna lie… those workers are messy….

how did your camera follow you when you was getting that long piece of pvc

You should of used that busted ass boat to make your floating blind. Apparently it doesn't sink

That was a bass you had it out the water so long

That was 100% a largemouth bass fry. They can spawn as late as June in Oklahoma. It depends on the water temps.

Up side sucks in my area every time I clam a spot and pay at pump card reader dont work or won’t print out receipt

Did ya jump on June 6th?

Zip tie factory is now no longer at risk of bankruptcy lol

I love how you try to relate with your viewers by complaining about buying gas and how much it costs you.

what 45 degree angles?

Back wall

Arts and Crafts Time with Drew. My favorite show.

That was a mosquito fish that he slapped with a rod not a bass.

Don't blame u for not paying that much for a 2 ft piece of PVC. The funny thing is you can buy a 10 ft piece and they will cut it into 5 2ft pieces for free

Please show the turtles you catch in the trap

Raccoons destroyed my mini pond 😢
