CAST NETS

YOUR CAST NET IS ONE OF YOUR BEST FRIENDS – We use high quality nets because we rely on them to catch us bait. We always use lead weighted nets and small mesh size is very important. We like ¼” mesh. You will spend a little more but you’ll catch bait and keep them healthy! Here is a good brand of nets:
Wide Open Premium Casting Net, Mesh Cast Net, Bait Net, Superior Throw Net, Fishing Bait, Castnet, Catch More Fish, Bait Traps, 1-1.5lbs/Ft MAKE SURE YOU SELECT 6 FOOT – ¼” MESH.

Thanks so much! I’ve been wanting a new dock but the price is insane and the time it takes it crazy too! Our canal is also a lot of muck but it also has plenty of rock too. Will hope we can get the posts to go down far enough. We’re in our late sixties, but this looks doable! Love it!

The back side of a pair of channel locks works great on those caps.

Just launched my dock boat. Now to lay the deck boards. I built it by myself. My kids came over to help me get it to the pond

This video gives me a good idea for building a long walkway towards the end of my pier to finish the third phase. It's quick and dirty and I can break it down later and build a floating pier next to it. It's a major rebuilding of the original that I did in 1985-6 when I scrounged lumber out of the creek and nearby river. Now, it's the blue barrel method... It's either do a floating walkway or build a crane to bring out, set and wash down the next sets of pilings, as I'm a cheapskate and don't want to get a marine construction crew involved when I can do it all over again and cuss, growl and grunt pushing up pilings into dark murky holes in the bottom of the creek, just like when I was younger. Instead of running a matrix of old decking boards into places where I can use them as footing for using the post hole digger to dig a pilot hole for the pilings, I could be able to move the walkway into position and let the tide drop to the mud level and have a very stable platform for moving mud. Also, it's another position that can be used for placing the wash pump, instead of up on the finished dock Excellent video. I hope you're having a great time with it. Seems like everyone that uses jet skis, paddle boards and kayaks are building blue barrel floaters...
Thanks again for the excellent information on how y'all did it.

Thank you for this video! I, too, will build my "boat dock" - Town of Davie, no need to inspect 😀

This video was both eye-opening and inspiring. I now have some great ideas as I tackle my up-coming dock project. Thanks for the lesson. On the other hand, your kids were literally so cute, and literally they had a lot of fun, and literally your son was a good fisherman. But literally they were a distraction. I literally found myself trying to literally fast-forward each time that you digressed. Finally, after the 8th time, I literally stopped counting the times that you said “literally”, during the presentation.

We have had the barrels down by our pond for years waiting on my husband to have time to do this!!

I'm going to build one of these on my pond so I can put a tent on it and camp out. Would be perfect for the apocalypse lol.
