ide sugest doin multi bottles in one body of watter. I wana use them to catch exotics when i go to florida . If i take my minnow trap or not im still gonna make a bunch of these and stick them in all the cannals around what ever motel i stay at in florida city. I like staying in florida city cuz it only a couple miles from the peacock bass canals. And they are loaded. Pluss im takeing my throw net. Im most definitly gonna have to rent me a suv or truck for the next trip. I dont think another suby outback gonna handle my load on this trip down.

where abouts you live? You in southern florida? near florida city? If so update us on the peacock bass . What ya be catching down there Got pics. I only managed peacock bass, mayans, oscar, managuense, and small tilipia
Window screens shoved in the mud making a box and v entrance and baited with bread crumbs seem to work every where and are free. Free is good. put them back before landlord notices.

my idea is good if someone is on vacation or something like that. You always gonna be drinking something you no what i mean. So haveing few empty 2 litters is the best i think . You can find them anywhere and everywhere for free. or just buy a couple and drink them down with some southern comfort or jacklol
