[Applause] wo we are back and today we're on the river we're going to catch some crawdads at least we're going to try I have a trap and I have some fishing line as well that I'm planning on just grabbing a branch and making a little rod with it see if I can catch some uh croads with that uh we'll set the Trap right here it's a little shallow here but we'll give it a shot for I don't know half an hour or so and uh we'll see if we can catch them here hopefully we'll be cooking the croads right on the river it's going to be a good one okay Jon's already in the water she's just uh hanging out in there I guess hopefully if we put a um trap out they'll smell the bait and start crawling out but I'm hoping in this area general area right here just kind of a deeper pocket I have this crawfish trap that I've had for a long time time it's works pretty well the zipper broke so I just stitched it with some uh shoelaces and I have couple pieces of squid I don't think crawfish are particularly picky but this is some really good squid I think it'll work well I'll just stuff it in this little bait holder hopefully that attracts him over got some cordage and we'll just tie this up right here there we go and we are ready to go super easy yeah it came with some line already but uh it's too short so I just leave that somewhere else all right we'll let this soak a little bit hey you're scaring away my Crow ads put it right here see how that does okay now I just need something to tie it off to got my bucket there we go so my trap is right here I have a feeling under that rock there there's going to be some crowd ads but the flow is going this way I think all the scent might be you know going that way instead of to that rock I might move it up a touch if that's what doesn't work or maybe I'm just thinking about it too much slit it to its thing oh look like under here might be good too I need a stick a nice long one and I think this one here that's perfect how's this stick I think that'll work it's a little heavy let's look for maybe a lighter stick maybe an ultra light Rod no it's breaking no that'll work ultra light look how wobbly it is sweet got a nice uh heavy one to catch the big craw daddies and got a nice uh thin one to catch the crawl kids oh shoot there's one right there look right there see if I can hit him with my hand right now hold on let me put this my head oh no he's going under and just going to stick my hand in oh he's gone that was fast all right but there's some here got some fishing line can't be about that long that should work okay I got another piece of bait that is a little different than the squid this is some steak fat ooh nice delicious fatty steak so I'll put this right on the hook I don't think they'll be able to resist this boom all right where's that cro dad gone where are they gone I don't see any right now is that one right there oh what's going on I'm thinking right under that rock there's got to be some might need to put some weight on here the beef fat floats too much let me take a look at this trap I think there's anything in there nothing in it or around it I think we'll move down river there's actually a huge one right here oh there's two of them right when we're moving yeah this one is huge I'm going to catch it with the net they're actually coming out now oh my God there's another one that's huge just as big dang it's like a little lobster this thing is huge look at the claws on them holy hell water my gosh this thing is so big the claws are mean there's actually like two or three more that just came out right now too I mean I was just leaving the trap in this calmer water and then they start to come out okay there's one more right here so let's just catch them before we go here we go two big craw dads those are some big craw daddies right there nice huh mey claws I mean that's all I see actually there's no more so we'll we'll move we'll move at least we got two big ones all right
