A new invention for setting trotlines.

We mix business with pleasure. Angler Ed White demonstrates a trotline device he invented that blends recreational with commercial fishing. We head to Lake Barkley for a closer look at how the two come together.

Now YOUUUU tell me if you ever... ( any of yall ) EVER had to fish catfish for a living... Obviously not from what I see, Don't worry I did the favor of leaving a post video for you

@flamedrag18 just my figure of speech ! I always seem to lose people my bad . just meant that you defined the way it was made ! get it the schematics or plans laid out like a ten pound bass ! Hhaahhaha ! Cool

[flamedrag18]

@NONNIE357 huh? I don't get what your saying? I didn't specify the length because you may need a longer or shorter tube since some states have different trotline length laws, no point in having a large tube when it's not necessary but it's also good to have a large one when necessary, so I can't just throw out a length and expect it to be universal,. I also forgot to mention to use a smaller PVC pipe(1/8" or smaller), metal rod or a grooved piece of wood to hold the baited hooks.

Never saw it put back into the tube...betting it came out much easier than going back in. Would not be ideal for live bait. . . but, great system and nice video.

One problem with this rig, when setting in shallow water the line would get snagged on the bottom unless tension is kept on the line. This rig lets the line come out freely.

@flamedrag I'm with you its cool for sure but you got the schematics all laid out like a ten pound bass !

[sixtyllama131O]

or you could buy a flotie

[flamedrag18]

why not just take a PVC pipe, a end cap, a saw and some sandpaper, cap one end of the pipe, saw a 1/4" slot in the pipe lengthwise to the cap and sand the sharp edges done to reduce wear on the line, cheap and effective.
