If you are about to comment that there's an easier method to trap them, don't bother, I already knew all the methods before I made this video and made it anyway. There's more than one way to skin a cat.

Anyone else here who hasn't played Ark in like 3 years but still watches Fatdog's videos just because they're always so good?

Mind. Blown. That's the simplest way to lower a foundation on a raft, that I've ever seen!!! No more multi steps with foundations and pillars... the video was worth it just for that! And I love the fish scooper too!

Pretty cool idea! Instead of running after the fish, just steal them straight out of the water! 😂

The trapping for me is just a bonus. The creativeness of your traps is the best part for me! I'm now planning to tame a Shadowmane.

A good build starts with a fence foundation 😅. So glad to see another vid. Made me pretty happy.

Thanks for your build videos, i have learned a lot of tricks from you. It's nice to see someone finally use that method to set a foundation at deck level on a raft. This works on platform saddles as well but it works out a bit differently. I have been doing it this way since about the time scorched earth dropped. To get a square foundation dead center i set a fence foundation longitudinally covering the mast hole with one leg of the foundation at the front edge of the deck. Then snap another fence foundation at a 90 degree angle then snap a pillar to the end of that, remove fence foundations and a square foundation will snap to the floating pillar at deck level. From there i usually build a 3x5 raft base for early game.

I'm a bit late for the Gen 2 hype, oops. Everyone still want Gen 2 content or you over it?

He has done it again! thanks for all the build testing! My bro and I usde your crystal wyvern trap and it worked flawlessly

I really like the style of these videos! Keep it up!

Aaawwwwww... Look at you with all your new little fish buddies! Very clever. Always amazing.

Literally liked comment and subscribe because of this video. Most well thought out trap I’ve ever seen. You are a genius bud.

fatdog thank you so much man, your video allways giving a nice tricks to do stuff in ark easier, i pray for your success man

I’ve never been so hyped to see someone post a video

Love this trap concept! Gonna try later on me game! Thanks for making it!

Where have you been all my Ark life!!!

Genius This will help catch the fish in the deeper water too!

This is Genius.. Congratulations... You mught have changed fishing in ark, forever..

Lovely video, and relevant trap. Good as always.

Perfect, as always. Thanks mate.

Wow so simple and effective legend!!!

i really enjoy your vids the build hacks you show are the most amazeing things ive ever saw in ark your amazeing!!!

Late to Gen 2, but always glad for your ideas!

Finally a viable way to get shadowma- I mean fish pets. Yes, this trap won't be abused just to get food for a single. . . Axolotl-Lion.

You are such an artist

So I copied this exactly and I found two things: 1. The parts list shows two foundations but if you watch the video and try to build it yourself you will need three, two for the top and one underneath. 2. It does not seem to work for scooping, if you try to push a fish into the catcher it will phase through the stairs and end up under the boat, the best way I found to use this was for luring piranhas as they will swim up the stairs instead having to be pushed like the passive fish. It works after a fashion just not exactly as shown, though that may be the result of some update or another as it has been 6 months since this video was published. Thank you for the design.

The internal machinations of your mind are an enigma. Hot damn these videos are amazing

Such a genious my dude!

My mind is blown… great idea

*sees an easier way to lower foundations on a raft* 😲😱😃🙌🙌 THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

You're doing God's work tbh

Incredibly well done video. You are good.

It's fantastic. Perfect as always.

I love the Thumbnail🔥

One word, Genius

Brilliant idea and vid.. top stuff

underrated youtube

This is beautiful

Have another subscriber! Raas shouted you out and I love your content style!

Wow its great idea thanks!

Awesome idea!

This was really helpful

This is Brilliant

Muito top. Parabéns irmão 👏👏

Welcome captain

You absolute genius 👏👏👏👏👏

I just net them, so easy and gives plenty of time to place a basket and trap them. I'm not sure though if it works on officials too, and it doesn't always work with the first projectile^^ lol I love the intro with the eyes xD

Lovely Video!

freaking genius!

Genius, simple

That is ingenious

You're a genius 😍😍

Amazing I subscribed.

You is awsome dude!

He’s back! Yussss

you're a goddamn genius sir! thank you!

You are the Best Broth :D

Gute Idee. Danke 🥰

you are the best !!!

Omg! All that wasted time on trying to chase fish into a corner and hoping they stay there long enough to trap, thank you once again Mr FatDog for another decent build!

Epic bro :]

what if the spino or kapro or whatever else is in the water goes in front of you? will the walls still help?

Você é um gênio, muito obrigado

U the best bro lol u came a. Little late but this is genuinely incredible

Bro u are amazing

That's a great thing ❤️

Love the songs in your videos! Is it always from the same author?

damn i wish i saw this wen i was on gen2 wen first came out this could hav saved me so much time and aggravation lol u are genius

I had this idea, but your implementation is of course soooooo much better. Man, i know you hear this a lit, but thank you. I have used so many tricks that you have taught me, truly appreciate everything you do.

Well... The kapro part got me laughing straight away

I realize this is an old video, but in trying this out right now, s+ versions of these pieces don't allow for the correct snap points on the raft, in case anyone else needs this.

Always love your creativity. Did you ever post the secret to your helicopter rotor?

Genius!

how do you come up with these inventions lol pure brilliant

Very cool

Thank you

amazing!

Quality! 😁😎

Legend!!

Brilliant

Top notch

Bring it on!

Now i just need some more boats and i’ll have a perfect titano trap 😃

Genius! Awesome trap. Thanks sensei.

awasome

Great, thanku

Is there a scoop like this that works for a megalodon or basiliosaurous sitting near the surface? Or does this work? I have a group of like 5 megas stuck in a tidal pool that can escape but for some reason aren't so I'm hoping to scoop up one or two to help make taming one easier.

素晴らしい！！ありがとう！！

Wholesome picture at the end

200+ IQ or probably imposible to calculate. Nice video!.

Nice 👍😁

The stone foundation that’s goes under the first set of stairs will not latch on the ps4. Help?

Thank youuu

Genius

Might try this out for fishing - any good traps for fishing with the pole capt?

Very nice! I usually just use a tent though. Slap the tent down on a Coel and place the basket in the entrance partially sticking out, then close the tent. Then trap the fish. I get Coel easy like that. Probably not a good idea for Piranhas though, haven't tried that lol

Genius Probably still prefer my method of dropping a tent on them then trapping, not sure if that works on official though? Got a couple of cryo fridges full of x2. O and bigger all trapped on Ab between where the river drops through the hole in the cave and where spinos start spawning, easy fishing

Just wondering could you replace the stone stuff with wood for price sake if you’re in the eden biome

genius👍

Ооо привет брат, давно тебя не видел👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🎄🎆✨🎉🎁
