How to build diy fishing jugs for catfishing using foam pool noodles, pvc and bottle jugs. The jug line technique has been used for many years using standard jugs and bottles, but now there is a way to build strike indicating float jug that show when a catfish has grabbed the line. Since I am building these for the first time, I will be showing you how to tie the fishing knots and what line to use as well and how this technique works. Happy fishing!
I take you through the entire process of how to make these and I have linked below my videos where I have used these to catch catfish.

Tim Ellison putting together fishing noodles for catfish on Cherokee lake . update , I used 15 inch noodles with 20 inch pvc , I had to extend the pvc pipe another 7 inches to counter the noodle so it would float upright also i used 9 inch rebar for more counter weight , after I wrote my info on the noodle I used clear box tape on the noodle to seal the markings , after the first morning of use I'm going to use smaller line with only about 5 feet of line , this setup did not work with the thick line , we caught no fish on the noodles and three on jugs , when i change this they will work fine.
Get ready for a trip to Wal Mart.
Because you're gonna need some supplies. Alabama Boss shows you how to make a catfish noodle.
This video is long, but covers a lot of good information. I cover 3 types of jugs and go over various techniques to consider when building your own.

One thing I never mentioned is what bait I use and where I place my jugs. Hands down bar none fresh caught shad have resulted in best success, if I cant find any "winter time" ill use frozen shad. 2nd favorite bait to use are hot dogs...I've tried livers, gizzards, bacon, worms, soap, perch, premade Walmart bait, minnows, gold fish, and guts. If I don't know where to lay jugs "never fished an area" i'll start by watching the top of the water. Find the shad and you'll find the catfish. Fish drop offs where water goes from 15-20ft and to 30-50ft. Try to place jugs on that "lip".

This video is intended to help perfect jug fishing and make your trip more successful.
