Crabbing in the River TUGTRASH style! *Family, Friends and Food*

you see it folks I just pulled up to the trap house but it's not the trap house you're thinking of we are in my buddy Harold's crab lab that's this boat that's a sweet boat we was just talking about that got all this crab wire and everything like that and uh the man himself the myth the legend but this table where he bends them all up and he's super meticulous has everything all set up and I am picking up five new traps it's summertime the blue crabbing is in full swing I've always had five I'm getting five for Crystal really uh because you can have five each but uh y'all check these things out over here man these are some of the nicest traps you will find anywhere he builds them mostly for rep guys and uh little things like putting the rebar on the inside and painting it so it doesn't scratch up your boat deck uh really makes a difference but we'll see you guys out on the river and we're going out there for Memorial Day weekend and we're gonna catch some crabs see you out there what's up guys this video is brought to you by Hemingway e-bikes this thing is a game changer I am completely disappointed we didn't have them when we were kids but better yet I got one when I'm 40. they sent me this bike to try out and I haven't had a full chance yet but I'm gonna rig it out for hunting and fishing I've also been using it around the neighborhood running up to the store uh like a little kid again out riding around and fishing ponds and stuff in the neighborhood but let's go over it this is a fat tire e-bike um the fat tires mean that I can ride it in soft sugary sand I've had it on the beach uh you can pedal assist or you can just throttle it either or but it maxes out at 23 miles an hour this thing is fast guys you've got a storage rack I'm probably gonna put a basket here and some rod holders uh I'm probably gonna put a basket on the front it also has headlights and I'm super excited to get this thing out on some public land and do some hunting with it uh you can slip around the woods super super quiet and fast and scent free and I would like you guys to check them out it's a very affordable e-bike I think it's about sixteen hundred dollars and I have a discount code in the description so you guys check out Hemingway bikes this is the cruiser model what's up guys Harold here today I'm gonna walk you through the process of building a crab trap show you all the parts and pieces the anatomy so to speak show you my little setup this is what we call Wishard wire it's just a little mom and pop operation out of my garage here but we uh pump out some crab traps here start with we only use the highest quality Riverdale wire made in America hot dip galvanized vinyl coated got multiple colors got a lot of stuff already pre-bent so we can make orders happen faster it's got the rope and the Bungie line and all the different colors here down below I have all my buoys most of them are already have the letter r on them for the recreational traps as of March this year for recreational blue crabbers you have to have this bycatch reduction device on there that limits the diamondback terrapin turtle from entering so what I've done is I've reduced the size of the the funnel here and uh end straps will all be legal and all my customers they'll be legal move over here we've got just the old rope and buoy and I put a handle on top of mine so you can grab it in the water easier when it's sticking up what's up guys I am out here checking in to this cool little cabin on the St John's river and Bianca's here Crystal's here Bianca's friendly Nyla we've got in Marlin crab traps and we've got fishing rods coolers we've got the ring Nets and I don't know what we're gonna show you yet but it's going to be something cool there's guaranteed gonna be
