With such a trap you can catch fish in almost all regions and in all continents where there is a river with fish.
All you need is a plastic bottle, hot glue gun, soldering iron, knife, fishing line or rope.
Take a five liter plastic bottle.
Cut off the top part.
Turn the top over and insert the other side into the same base.
Fix with hot glue. You can take a stapler and fasten the parts together, but I was afraid that the staples might scare away the fish.
Next, using a heated soldering iron, we make holes 1-0.5 cm in diameter on all sides. 6-8 pieces on each side.
We need another bottle, from which we need to cut off the neck and cap.
We lean this neck against the bottom of our trap and outline it with a marker.
Cut a hole.
Insert the neck with the lid.
Fix with hot glue.
Through this neck with a lid we will take the catch and throw in the complementary food.
We tie a fishing line, or if not, a rope. It’s better, of course, to use fishing line, since it’s not visible.
That's all. Let's start testing.First of all, we throw the bait inside. This could be crushed bread, or some other tasty fish bait.
Carefully throw the trap. We are waiting for her to dive under water. And we wait about 15 minutes, it all depends on your area.
We take out the trap and wait until all the water drains out through the side holes. Then we unscrew the side cap and pour out the catch with the remaining water.
Of course, you won’t be able to catch big fish with such a trap, but you can still use it for various needs. Although, if you take a larger bottle, like a 50-liter cooler, it can turn out to be a trap for big fish.
Small bottle fish trap for fry
Another trap. We take two bottles (I took them with a volume of 0.6 liters). And we repeat with them everything the same as in the first case with a large bottle. With the exception of the side hole for the cap, we will cut off the bottom, not the top, of the first bottle.
I check in my garden, where there are a lot of very small fish.
I stroke the bait and lower it into the water. After 5 minutes, about 6-7 fish were caught.
This simple device for catching fish can be made from a simple plastic bottle.
You can make such a trap right by the river, having a knife and bottle at hand. Of course, it will not be effective, but it can be done in literally 5 minutes.
