  2. The lead isn’t touching the water. (If it was, the fence would be going to ground, and that would defeat the purpose of having an electric fence in the first place.)

  9. I see lots of crossings like this supported by 55 gallon barrels. They work well until high water sends a bunch of heavy floaters down stream.

  10. LOL you can hear the fence snapping in the background…. Be careful it sounds hot! I use this technique it is the only way to fence a creek IMHO. The only thing that I add is [2] temp 3/8 posts on each bank w/a strand of poly wire between at waist level, twisted around one of my down hot wires, secured loosely. Then, when/if the creek takes it out all you need to do is replace the poly wire [cheap] and your back in business. I’ll be subscribing!

  13. You need to send your message to every fisherman in the world then cause we all use lead weights. These are seldom in the water. Thanks for poisoning our minds with your goofy ideas.

  16. In my state we have a liberal interpretation of navagatable waterway. A fence like this would be legal to cut…

  18. hence, you are still ignorant to the verified scientific and medical fact that lead IS poisonous. You can believe in old wives tales that is will make you stronger, and that lifting it will make you stronger. Point is, lead in your water is toxic. make believe what you want, just sayin. dont mock me for pointing out the truth of the reality. thanks for poisoning our streams with your lead fish weights.

  21. People (like my parents) played with lead cast toys when they were younger and they are fine. I’ve seen fishermen press lead weights onto fishing line with their teeth and they’re alive. That lead weight will do nothing. I rather touch lead and live on a smelly farm than live in house “freshened” by some synthetic aerosol.
