 Welcome back to the channel everybody. It is going to be a crazy adventure today. I'm sitting down in front of the HQ right now and we're getting ready to go on a river fishing trip. Actually river I've never even fished before. The Red River and we're taking out an airboat. Recently discovered that the people that work out of the building behind our HQ, they're actually custom boat manufacturer. So they do these like shallow running cool jet boats, airboats, some crazy boats that you know I don't have much experience in. So that is what we're doing today. We're taking one of their like extremely fast badass airboats and we're going to go up on what is called the Red River. Red River's got a lot of history. It's mostly got catfish in it and so we're going to attempt to get some online but it's going to be sick just going out in this airboat. Right now it is appearing as if we are on a longhorn ranch which I'm assuming is on the river. I thought we were going to like a public boat ramp somewhere. I have never been up on the Red River in this area. I've crossed over you know a hundred times on I-35 but this is somebody's ranch apparently. We're getting a little special treat here today. Here we are at the Red River. Could be one guess why they call it the Red River. That's right we are in that Oklahoma red dirt and I have fished a tournament on the Red River on the Louisiana side but I've never messed around with fishing on this Oklahoma Texas side. This is also a big area historically with the Comanches and the settlers. A lot of action happened around here. Comanches would come across you know they would take horses go back into Oklahoma and the the boat archery was very special to them. It grows in the Red River Valley and if you guys have seen some of my videos with the bows that I've been making I've made two so far out of boat arch. It is one of the best woods in the country. That and you which grows on the west coast. It's the fastest most durable wood that you can use. So tons of hickories tons of boat arcs it's really really cool place I'm excited to see the whole thing and I picked up some some some some baits at Walmart just some you guys never seen I don't understand this the shad that are in the bags how does that stay not rotting I don't get it it's witchcraft but we're gonna throw some of those on some trot lines some jugs we've obviously got some current here so it should be challenging and I've got some lines let me introduce you to the boys is that how you do it throw it off you just light it up on the grass is that a is that common practice or is that something you guys just do so we built the roller system so it doesn't hit the grass right you just drive it up on the trailer whenever you're done unload it dry load it right back up the world all right we're gonna get the full tour here let me introduce you to the boys this is Kyle that's Tai right there and that's Austin walking up over here so why don't you guys walk me through what the world is going on here this thing a little walk through yeah so this is a 16 foot by seven airboat it's actually a tonal hole so it's a little bit different than a flat bottom but we won't get into the nitty gritty details but focusing on more of the flashy stuff that's a LS3 or a 62 whatever you want to call it it was a crate GM motor they got hurt once and so now it's bored over to 408 and built top to bottom and then we've got twin precision 64 66 mirror image turbos we're running about right at 15 to 20 pounds of boost at max rpm like how many more cars they have so i mean we've never had it on dyno but we're guessing that on pump fuel and the way everything's set up it would make in between nine and nine fifty on a dyno oh so pretty stout um and then we're running a counter rotator belt drive system and then we've got two six blade props this is crazy this i mean this looks like there's machetes on here and they're not like they're not when i was behind you guys looking i thought that they were i thought it was one prop and they were uh facing different directions but now i see there's two no they they turn individually like that opposite direction so what it does is it takes all of torque roll out of the motor and keeps the boat on a center line which is um a huge you know part as to why this tunnel hole works so well is because everything is riding on a center pad and as we increase speed that pad is getting smaller and smaller and smaller and basically you know when we're over 60 70 miles an hour the entire boat's just out of the water just on a small two by two little pad here in the back i got you it so there's a there's a planer right here yes just a trim tab and so depending on where the coolers are at who's on the boat how much fuel you got and especially like if we're out on the river and there's 50 boats during a river run the water's not smooth and so we've got that trim tab just as like a dampener just so it doesn't beat the hell out of you when you're driving that sounds adventurous boys uh do you need a special license to drive these things or is there any requirements nothing i know of because i'm thinking i probably need like at least one sleeve tattoo smoke unfiltered cigarettes and i'd just be a complete badass i don't know if i'm qualified to even ride on this thing but we're gonna have some fun okay i got one really important question for you boys yeah what's up do you have four sets of ear muffs yep yep so be in trouble there you wouldn't make it without it i promise i could guarantee you i bet if i stood here you guys turned this on my clothes would blow off oh no one wants to see that we're about to turn it on let it run get it warmed up and then we'll just jack this thing off the trailer like dumped it and i guess you're just gonna ride down these rocks it's all it's all good oh yeah okay all right i'm just trying no problem man everyone wants to see this this is our stuff yeah i think this is the one we're at least gonna try this is a nice little deep hole dude there's a couple turns i was like that log was in the middle yeah yeah yeah that was uh it was a puckered for 10 and a half seconds there water cleared up way more than i thought i would yeah once we got past that chalk talk creek this is all from you know tix oma so it's it's clear i mean it's semi clear oh i've run into the old tex oma weather situation of time or two so i know how this goes so we'll see give her give her an angle clouds and rain have appeared lightning as well there's another one well bam another one got a got one jug out right now i'm just building a couple more we uh we're gonna be out here and if it rains there is no easy escape i assure you so buck her up buck her up your butts i'm gonna step down from the highest point here tile you're kind of screwed so lightning always gets the tallest object we've got two jugs out right now i've got one uh catfish bait line and i've got a spoon and i've just been tossing out here because we're so close to where they let water out the dam i guarantee you there's probably white bass maybe some stripers some juvenile stripers and then uh there's got to be some large mouths around here somewhere but uh i think we're going to be obstructed by lightning there's only so much that uh that a man could take you know light and popping all around since we're on a river we just got these crazy weather changes tip on the beach right now just stopped raining we're getting out of the rain threw a couple of nudes out and i've got a line with some snake bait uh nice deep hole here by this bridge yeah we're just kind of waiting out the storms don't want to get hit by lightning with you know got an aluminum boat holding fishing rods never good oh goodness okay that's a that's a rope got a snake what do we got got our hopes up nothing but a turtle it's total time it's just freaking total time it's a total time on that bridge did come it man the line started moving try to grab the pole and it's it's catch of the day that's a red-eared slider of beauty turtle was released on instagram this adventure i think the fishing part of this adventure is is maybe coming to a close um we're in a deep hole right now which i would think is a great cat fishing spot still got the two jugs out i haven't seen any any bobs any movements on the jugs over here i'm just not i'm just not feeling love today maybe the catfish aren't feeling a lot i don't know i'm pretty sick at running this baby right here the scene is so so hot like on this engine that i literally thought the sun was like hitting the back of my neck it was just the engine it's just the heat so pretty extreme stuff and we were only going like 40 but how fast will this thing go how fast yeah if we really wanted to like kick up the juice like 85 85 you kidding me that's faster than than my boat not safe oh yeah it's super safe yeah yeah he's sarcastic ain't safe we ain't doing that here today i want to live but anyway there's some really cool adventures to be had in boats like this they also make like specific bow fishing boats and when they have one of those in the shop i'd like to like to get out and do the bow fishing with them with all the lights and everything especially on these rivers you just can't either have you have to have a jet boat or you have to have an airboat like this we were going over water that's like this deep so even the crispy collector would not last that was freaking awesome i just took that thing right up the hill y'all this right here on this turbo if you touch that oh it'll sizzle your finger you could bake a hot dog that sucker i promise you dude that thing literally kept me warm like it almost feels pretty good it does it's like putting your back to a campfire you worked the fuel perfectly how was well it was like kind of going on the how much we got oh we're fine we're on yeah how much was it we it was 550 gallon and we put in 100 bucks and then we went that was how many miles was that 18 gallons i think we went like 45 50 miles not good two two and a half miles yeah which is fantastic for what it is you know honestly yeah because my that's what my mother gets when i'm going full blast yeah if you if you put throttle down on this thing we'd be out probably like 30 seconds the other day we did like two or three pulls just staying in it for i don't know a quarter mile or so and three pulls was a quarter tank wow so it'll drink it pretty fun stuff man this is uh it's kind of a fun toy but it's also a pretty cool fishing mechanism you know didn't catch them today but um i could see the bow fishing being awesome and then also getting in some of those those holes like catfish holes but i don't know what i'm doing up here guys i really don't like if you have any river fishing uh catfish tips for me i'd love to know i've really only fish for them in uh in lakes so that's all i know so you guys probably never seen this go down i'm guessing most of you out there you've seen me put my bow to my trailer 100 times you know how that normally works 900 horsepower twin turbo engine with two blades on about to push this up back from the river y'all it's time to put our river stuff back in the crispy want to thank the boys over at aero wake for taking me out today for a unique river experience to say the least i think i need to go back out there want to know what the heck i'm doing with cat fishing i know they have huge catfish in there i just i don't know too scared to get in their noodle with them i suppose but what i do have is my trotline stuff that i made uh in a previous video so so i've been anxious to take it out and actually get some fish on it what i'm not sure about is uh this stuff right here these shats that are like i i don't know they don't smell it's it's really weird like how can that how can that be and you may also notice that that big beautiful silver bullet is back in the driveway she is fully locked and loaded and ready to dangle that is coming up as well thank you guys for tuning in to another outdoor adventure hanging with me smash the
