 We do have something on here We got something on here That's what's going on Good glorious day fishing freaks from the treehouse. Welcome back to the channel We're getting ready to go out on our maiden voyage With the new Merc on the crispy and hopefully we're not gonna hit a stump and knock the mark off It's all you that tuned in to the last video me and Craig out there on fork one of my most memorable days in Past years just because of the story behind it and everything. It was awesome It was awesome if you haven't watched it Please go watch it especially if you've been around the channel a long time and you missed it You guys are really gonna enjoy that so go back watch that last video And that's the last fishing trip that is gonna be in the silver bullet This boat is officially retired from this channel. I was gonna take it out today I was like man. I want to go fish this other crappie lake, you know And I wanted to take the boat out and everything but I was like, you know what? I'm gonna end on the most glorious note imaginable out of this boat right here Just ended on a good note and maybe one of y'all will get this boat and then just the good vibes keep rolling You know what I'm saying? I want to get back from my northern trip. There's gonna be a new vessel y'all So exciting stuff happening right now until then we got the crispy and we're gonna go out And we're gonna try to do a little cat fishing today Haven't done that in a while. Maybe just try to you know mess around. I really just want to break in the motor So I've got some of my jugs. I got a couple of poles I want to get this thing rigged out with some rod holders too. I have some order. They're coming in, you know sling that anchor out there and just Let it sit it is important to gingerly break in your new motor before you give it a good rip So let's get it gassed up. Let's get it broken in Fishing with feller right there He's out here. He's got he's got his murk on there We got our new murk herring, let me just start up one more time for you guys and there she goes there she goes So I've got a four blade prop on here. It's the it's the spitfire prop It's meant for the 25 and 30 horse four stroke It's supposed to be really good. We're gonna see though. I got a speed app on my phone We're gonna see how fast this thing actually goes right off the bat I'm just gonna tell y'all some things I like about this motor just put that in gear for the first time my old motor I had to manually switch The gear and then the throttle was separate. So you had your forward reverse your neutral. It was easy But this is a little bit more efficient So the gear switch and everything the throttle is all right here and the stop button So you just press that and the motor turns off which I didn't have on the other one makes it really nice Let me show y'all how I got this Finally rigged up. So we got the gas tank over here six gallon I No longer have a gas tank over here So I probably ended up putting another battery right there to run the trolling motor separate And then I may hook up a graph and everything on The main battery. Let's get it in gear get it up on pad Smooth like butter. I'm gonna put the old jacket on today cuz Never run this motor Hoping it's not gonna fly off. Let's give it a rip. So I've got it set just about half drop I stiff it up the steering That's really nice. Something I've never so far is It likes to run just trimmed all the way down And I just did the pin where the motor sits to the lowest setting when I first took off It was kind of doing that dolphin thing. So I hope I didn't mount the motor up too high It definitely doesn't look like I did but Now she's running fine Look at them go they going Very tempting, but I got some break in I still got to do I've never even fished over here to be honest with you. I'm just something like a dead part of the lake It's calm. I think the white bass just follow me around. They I put out like a sonar and they just they come up to it I don't know They want to get in my fridge and want to get my cooler It's a good thing Fish and freaks. We got three jugs set right now. I figured I would do that while I'm running around breaking in the motor And I'm just over the hour mark now So I can rip it if I want to but I see it looks like we have a jug that has gone down Already I Think this is mine. I put my jugs out in like 20 30 feet of water. I'm really not sure. I don't have a graph But I'm thinking that's where the catfish are gonna be during the daylight hours I know in the evening they're gonna move up shallow, but yeah, we definitely got a jug down Let's go see if we got something on there. See are we moving? Are we bobbing? What are we doing? Did not feel the tug so I'm just gonna leave it there Got a rancor out. I can see one of my jugs And I'm gonna throw some bait out there Give these old chump odds to try somebody sent me these a while ago I've honestly been scared even open. I'm sure they smell like death, but the catfish and other things Probably smells like sweet roses in heaven Chump pass Chump here Tied detergent things Before I can even get a line out and get a tan the jug is already down over there. I'm just trying to see if it's bobbin But it's calm right here. I haven't seen any boats go by it So I know a fish definitely took that one. I'm gonna check this job I'm gonna check this job before I throw a line out fish might have just Try to take the bait knocked it down might need to rebate it before we get settled in on our anchor spot I got a drum not exactly what you want to catch, but Give me that shad back, bro Shad stealing sucker And our other bait was taken might be bobbin right here kitty cat captured y'all nothing to write home about But it is one. We don't have any catfish in the freezer right now. We got crappies. We got white bass I'm gonna load this one up with some more shad. That seems to be what they're liking and then I'll bet you Another one of these jugs is gonna be down by the time I get this one baited That was actually not the closest to the bottom They didn't ready this must be some pretty good action out here some live action right here Should have put them closer together Put the new mark to work here bounce them back and forth Think I got one. Yes, sir Got pale that guy is listen to him going in the cooler kitty Two cats in the well. I got one on the jug and one on rod and reel I missed one bite and the bite is really interesting at first I had it off the bottom and I was thinking you know just just like the jug lines But as soon as I started putting it on the bottom That's when I was getting bites, but the boat is constantly turning around So you have to watch that but when a fish grabs it and you just start seeing your line like move around the boat It's really cool. This one right here is just got a quarter ounce weight with a little stink bait on it And that one had that was close to three quarters of an ounce really keeping it down there With you know, half of a shad really cool bite, man I've desperately need some rod holders though, but I have this really cool little slot right here That allows me to put accessories So I think I'm gonna look for something that can go in this little pocket right here as a slot and lock down Put a couple of them in the very back that'll make it much easier to just pick up on them right now I'm just using the edge of the cooler does feel good to get the crispy out with the new motor get a couple whisker biscuits in The box and I still got to check my other jug lines So maybe I'll get one more on rod and reel. I'm out of bait, but another one on a jug. It's that's pretty good morning Since I'm out of bait. I'm just gonna check these jugs. I just brought in one had the bait taken nothing on it Going to number two It's down Come on, baby. Something delicious. Oh, yeah, nice catfish She baby good catfish right there now Look out Going in the coop Got one more. Hopefully we got one on that one, too. I Don't even see it. Oh, there it is Yeah, it's down We do have something on here We got something on here Biggest one of the day, baby Biggest one of the day There we go, that's servo hook Did exactly what it's supposed to That's awesome. Y'all ain't tell that fish has been deep It's been in that muddy deep water right there. I don't know how deep it is probably 20 something but Thank you, baby Got ourselves some good catfish today Y'all aren't gonna believe this but I got out of the boat to take like a cool photo with my meat necklace And one of them got off Sure did. Biggest one, too That is a true goog and move right there Alrighty folks, we've had our kitty cat sitting on ice for a few hours now So they're a little chilled Always like to clean my fish after being on ice. I prefer 12 hours, you know an overnight soaking. We're not actually gonna cook these today We're gonna save these for another day. Steph's been perfecting a blackened recipe Blackened catfish blackened crappie. So anyways coming at you soon. We're gonna perfect it I showed this in another video, but this is the Googesquad hook and cook bucket. It's basically got a bunch of different dangle supplies in it A lot of this stuff already had in my boat But I mean if you literally just had a brand new John boat wanted to go do what I did today You could pretty much do it with what is in here So it doesn't come with a strop Doesn't come with a sharpener. I always like to sharpen my knives Doesn't matter which knife as soon as I get it out of the factory because factory sharp isn't as sharp as my sharp There's actually a couple things in here. I need to use Uh one being a grabber because I'm gonna try something. I have a fish skin peeler catfish skin peeler I want to try something with a hook I have on my deck I'm just gonna make a couple of cuts in the skin hang the catfish up and pull that kitty cat skin off A little blood on the golf cart. I hope stuff doesn't get upset If y'all haven't seen the golf cart tour video Lake life family channel link down below But one of the greatest things about having this Is toting fish guts I used to have to wait till my next fishing trip or wait till the trash went out to deal with these fish Because we live close to the lake and not on the lake the golf cart just makes it really easy to Take the fish scraps and go dump them in the water Circle of life right here. I was literally fishing out there today. I just like to carry the whole bucket tools and whatnot Is that fish ahoy? Come down here rinse our bucket out And just like that we are done fishing freaks the old crispy she topped out about 26 27 today But I feel like it has the same amount of pop as uh as the last motor it's just a lot smoother And just a lot more efficient like with uh, you know the forward and reverse being on the throttle And just a lot of things, you know the trim makes it really easy to going up in shallow water So anyway, I'm happy with the re-power crispy's running good and my old jugs, which I haven't done anything with I need to like re-tune them put some new line on there get some new rigs rigged up But man the month of may I think it might be good for the cat fishing I might have to do this a few more times just see if I can uh Load up with kitty cats put some more in the freezer and after a good day in the crispy Now I've got to head over to the silver bullet And it's time to start taking all the tackle Everything out make sure I don't forget I weigh in all my dagum waypoints that are on here I don't have that many but you guys know what I'm saying It's time to clear this boat out take it back to fun and sun and then It's going to be somebody else's horse to ride off into the sunset Thank you guys for tuning in today. If you are wondering how to make those jugs I'll leave a link for a video that I've done before where I built them and put them out and all that If you're interested in that bucket the hook and cook bucket I will not leave a link for that But it is available in certain walmarts around the country if you can get your hands on one snack you want And to everybody out there just giving it a dangle from every angle I salute you god bless you and i'll see you on the next one
