I posted a fishing life hack video about a month ago and got a lot of hate on my tip for un snagging a lure. Here is my revised lure retrieval technique that will save your lure and rod! https://youtu.be/oReI-IW95aA

Very clever retrieval method. For some reason, I think it will be a challenge to master that one for me.

Only time I climb a tree is to tell a lie, ain't going to that trouble over a lure but enjoyed watching you climb that tree. Being truthful though, I was kinda hoping you would fall in the water. Sorry.

Conscience never acquits, it either accuses or excuses.

 My boat would float away if I tried that. Keep up the videos  That method does look like fun and a great way to break up the day.
you know, nothing wrong with seven men who met on the internet going for a swim together

I have gotten lures snagged before but how the hell did you get snagged way up there? You did know there were trees there right? LOL

Good on you!!!! .. I wanna see your next video on gow much you really care about "haters" opinions!!! Of course it would have to have a lot of blackout editing starting just after the pants dropping scene.. just keep doing what you wanna do... its YOUR video & if they dont like it they can scroll on. Then the next video can be on " How to deal with Trolling Trolls"..

Ha! A few weeks ago I was fishing a buddies private lake and killling it with a 1.5 crankbait. Stuck it in a tree, cut it off and tied on something similar. No fish after that. Went back, climbed the tree, got my lure and started catching fish again. My buddy was yelling Triple Lindey the whole time I was up in the tree!😂

Nice! I wouldn't be going after a $4-$6 bait. Now, if that happened to a Yellow Magic, or one of my Lucky Crafts, I'd be climbing!
