 Good outdoor day fishing freaks welcome back to the channel here in the dangle cave right now. Just getting prepped We're going on a little river adventure today with the crispy. We got a monster front coming in I'm talking snow snow that may be happening in like 12 hours I have a little suspicion that there could be an early Spawn happening with the white bass species. We've had some warm rain the last 24 hours We've had warm weather. It's been in the 70s So I want to see I want to go all the way up there and see before this cold front If there's any fish up there and we're going to dangle around for some bass and stuff like that too But this is my first time taking the crispy up river. It's gonna get rough later So I want to go right now and I've also got something I want to unbox I've got this thing in I haven't even unboxed it and I've been pretty excited to open it up and see But I just wanted to open up with you guys and see what we got in here bowtech The archery company they sent me something in this box. I think it is The latest and greatest of the bows. I suspect so we're gonna get to that right after our little fishing trip But doing a couple things with bowtech this year pretty excited about we're gonna keep it pretty simple today y'all I've just got a couple little tackle boxes Throw some mini-recons Maybe some little rooster tails things like that, you know take a spinnerbait or something for your bass You got your basics covered and we'll just take like one bass rod a couple of smaller rods for the lighter lures And we should be good to go if we take a gander outside at our conditions gloomy Very gloomy But had the crispy charging all night The trolling motor works about half the time and it doesn't work for very long I'm thinking about upgrading on the trolling motor, you know, this thing's Original with the bow, which is amazing. Oh fishing freaks Nipley is an understatement the cold front. It's it's coming in earlier than I thought but We're gonna just give it a solid angle here. I just found a dadgum crankbait that I needed It's a mini-recon I'm gonna be probably trolling casting these these little guys around Especially with the water clarity right now the color like that a couple of poles Don't anticipate the the bite being very strong Stick those right there. This is my crate. This is the crispy crate right here So when I get ready to to go out I Load this up perfectly in this crate The lake is flooded. I mean we didn't have that much rain and it's it's high It's not the calmest of days And I've got a pretty long way to go, but we're gonna attempt it. We're gonna be buckling up today. I I'm not sponsored by any life jacket company or anything. I'm just gonna tell you I don't wear it enough A lot of times I'm running places that I've been for years And I just you know, I have a pretty good idea. I should wear it more. I'll admit that but today I'm legit wearing it because I'm a little bit worried boating can be dangerous, especially after rains Nobody likes it when you're dead. So if you feel a little sketched out at all Put your life jacket on. I'm just gonna be taking the little go-pros Here we are launching into the mist Come on Get off that trailer as soon as I came off the trailer to Hard landing. I'm quite tired of the cold to be honest with you I keep getting these little glimpses of spring and I get all excited and then I go out the next day and it's It's straight up winter again. I mean two hours ago when I got up. It was 55 degrees now. It's like 42. This wind is really strong y'all. I might not be able to run where I want to safely We're about to find out Here we go. I don't think this is gonna happen y'all I really can't see me running Five miles up that way and these little two-footers and in this little boat it will beat the rivets out of it I think I'm just gonna stay up in the creek that I launched in and See where it goes from there. I mean, what can you do? I don't want the crispy falling apart, especially not in these conditions y'all That is like a fisherman fear of mine is being extremely cold wet Falling in with waders falling in when it's just really cold in a little boat So we're gonna play it safe today Bright colors right here Not all to do the job Start your engines ladies and gentlemen We're going up the creek Fish on y'all fish on fish on First little secondary point trolling back in the creek You got some boat control issues you got to deal with you got here Are the whites starting to run? Up in the cricks. Oh Man, oh, man, this baby digging. I think it is a white bass. Oh, yeah fatty Fattee whoo, baby. Oh these babies are getting ready to spawn Squeeze that belly a little bit see if we can get some row No, but that looks like a big fat female choked on it I'm not keeping them today. I'm just doing a little I'm not keeping them today. I'm just doing a little recon literally with the recon here. That's really nice fish Really nice fish Just go a rod holder is literally my my cheek and my cleat This bait how I've got it on 10 pound test trolling it. It's probably getting around 10 foot Okay, here we go second fish on Well, he just lurched on to it It's coming right on the boat another fatty Magoo Another fatty Magoo starting to move up here. Let's give you the old stomach test These things are fat y'all they've been eating up all winter Getting ready to spawn Looks like it could be a female Not really squishing out those eggs yet though. Golly. Those are just great eaters great eaters I didn't already Have some trout and a ton of deer I'd keep them, but I will get the I will get the taste for these very soon Very soon my friends you will be going into the grease Nice fish. That's a really nice white bass right there. See you, buddy I like using these bright colors in the early spring too, you know reds for bass usually the water's dirtier in the spring because You get a lot of rains and the water's just off color a bright white or pearl a chartreuse a firetiger a red Those were all really good colors in the early spring Start to get pretty far back here now. This is what I'm getting curious We're in the back quarter of the creek Not getting any bites back here. So It makes sense honestly that the fish are like halfway to three quarters of the way back There could also be some crappie that are in that same region. So that's one. That's one good thing about trolling You know, especially a boat like this or it's hard to move around with the trolling motor I could figure out where the fish are with the crankbait like this You know four to seven foot diving just taking that I can figure out where the fish are It's also a good tactic for this time of year when Those fish are a little bit deeper. They haven't quite moved up. Wow I feel like it's dropping into the 30s as we speak the temperature is literally dropping like 30 degrees today So I think it's probably a good idea if we go take a look at that bow now Recon complete now. Let's put the old dangles aside. This is I want to Put a bow press in here and start to turn this into a I don't really have enough room But in a perfect world, I would have some more space and then this would also be an archery area as well But let's go get the bow and see what we're dealing with. I have not unboxed this boat yet I haven't even cracked the seal just glad let me know in the comments How many of y'all are into archery or are thinking about getting in to archery? I'm really curious. It's the thing. I enjoy the most in the outdoors that rare time when you can get an animal That's coming really close to you and get to hunt it with a bow There's no other adrenaline rush. I've had that's higher than that It's I've done a lot of things in the outdoors even hunting with a rifle. It's just it's not the same So let me know in the comments. Do you share my feeling? Do you think it's like the ultimate? hunting experience or Would you rather do something else? Okay, let's pull this baby out of here Feel light. All right. There must not be much in this box This is the naked bow right here y'all and this is There's two models of the revolt And I think I got the shorter one. I just can't remember which one it's called this one's the 30 inch model So from cam to cam it's a little shorter So what I like about this bow is it's very easy to tune that arrow. These cams are adjustable Just by a couple of clicks and it just goes back into place. You could do it on the fly I'm shout out to bowtech for sending me the bow. I do appreciate it Fishing is like my first passion and I've made a business out of it and everything But as you guys have seen on the channel over the past few years I'm doing money done more and more hunting and I plan on doing more and more hunting. I really love it Oh, we've got stuff to like set our bow up. We got a release. We got a three-pin sight. We got our stabilizer So I'm gonna do a little setup this myself everything I know and I'm capable of doing but I've got a buddy His name is John Thomas Earl Larkin. He's basically got his own bow shop in his garage He's been he came out of the womb Shoot narrows if you guys watch the New Zealand series. Well, first of all, go do it Crazy insane. Love that place want to go back. But anyways, JT was the buddy. I went with over there We've been friends a long time and I want to take this bow to him I told him it was gonna come in he really wants to see it shoot it. We're the same draw length So it's it works out really good. We can shoot bows together and he's really good And I'm not so he can tell me what I'm doing wrong That bag's mine Why do you have it because you would lend it to me when I went to New York like two years ago? I try to give it back to you and you're like, I don't need to have plenty of bait Probably some good baits in there. Oh, yeah, it's my little bow shop. Well, no, you got to come up with a good name here Larkin What's a good L word layer Larkin layer There it is. There it is. We got I got this same bench dude Perfect. It's so good. Oh, so this is this is my personal tackle box. Check that out right there That's og Lfg that was before Lfg existed actually dude and I painted that I remember painting I was into airbrushing there for a while. Yeah, that's an original. They don't make those. It's a fat egg Yeah, bomber fat a bomber fat egg right in the spring and we used to catch them on taxon on this You should give away the squad bag on your channel. Okay, I'm Thomas Larkin hook and arrow link down below We'll give away Justin's tackle box with everything in it. Oh My gosh Larkin Larkin Larkin This what kind of layer is this? Wow, good thing you have a short bow. We can pretty much do anything here that a bow shop can do So that's why I came to you my friend This is one of the new bow techs and it has their new little cam system Where instead of a shim or a top hat or anything like that You can set your bow dead center shot and then actually move the cam side to side to tune it to tune it Yeah, I've never messed with that. So that's so that's cool. So we're both learning today. I've got peeps For my peeps. Nice. You got D loop materials. Oh, yeah Green green I'm just gonna eyeball this thing I Want to keep that tag on there year-round like through the season this one Yeah, just like the guys that wear the tag on their hats exactly, you know have it dangling You know can rattle them in with the tag This is really I mean this is like bare bones to getting it pretty much fully rigged I even got new fresh arrows cut today We'll have you tuned before you leave here in just a minute. That's pretty cool. This thing will be done bear To shooting, you know, you're gonna be shooting this thing with a wrist strap So I think if we make it a little shorter than three quarters, I'll be a good starting point How many bows have you rigged up in your life? Oh god Just for myself like probably 30 anytime somebody has a bow problem After hours, I get a call That's me that we need to get your peep pipe figured out first draw ladies and gentlemen Checking to see checking the measurements. It's got some Pete need to come down quite a bit It needs to come down there. Yeah, Harry more down. Yeah, I think looks good Guess shove it forward wow I do that's scary That's different than my other bow let off You can sit there for a while. We're about there. So we're about to get first shot pretty close Just kind of look at it Do what if we shot it and it's just perfect first time. What do you do? What do you do? Thank you Lord Thank you for making this perfect and not a pain in my butt Don't move so Quentin is ringing up the what do you call this? Like what is your special name for this right here? Your contraption just our paper tune You got to do a Larkin something dude The Larkin laser method then we got something over here This looks like a torturing device Like what are you doing to people with this thing stretching them out? Medieval That's a minute dude, I got one of these on the crispy. I was just cranking on this morning I'm sure there's going to be comments about how there's fancier ways to tie a peep. Oh, yeah, but this is how I like to tie it We got a chicken warmer and a two by eight Winsham on in here. I got a stool Does that say sex? What is that? What's going on here? Is this a sex board? Exactly Man, I didn't know what you're doing the board. Should I be standing right here? This one's hitting that one's hitting. Let me take off just a little bit Dude, I'm pretty impressed this thing came from the factory time That that's not something you see very often. It doesn't happen. That never happens Well, good job boatech. Hey That's from an unbiased guy right there We're in a Matthews hat This is it the first actual shot we got some slackage a little left there Nope not left. It's actually a little low right. It's not that bad I was going to say it fit shot perfect on the first the first shot. I wouldn't trust it I'd say it's too perfect So we basically unlocked this and we moved both the top and the bottom cam just a little bit to the right Followed the tear getting closer movement Unlock and then rotate Do you like a quarter term ish? That's pretty cool. That is cool. All right. I think I think this is going to be it right here No, sir Too bad too bad. Yeah I like it. I love this cam idea that that was easy like not having to take the axles out to shim it Not having to switch top hats. Oh, okay. And these are locked in. They're locked in. Yep. Good to go Getting some blood on them. Yeah, I suppose the bullet holes. I think that's confirmed We are paper tuned and ready to do some target shooting y'all I did not think I was going to get that thing like ready to go today, but thanks to Old buddy john thomas earl larkin We got it done. Where'd you get your kills your own max new mexico new mexico elk? Can we look at it? Yeah, can we repeat? Let's go Look at its mass What's here's the latte? The white tails are impressive But they don't take up I'm going to say three of these white tails are like the size of this This one elk Like you're sitting here on the couch. Yeah, I can't walk. And then and then all of a sudden you're just An elk is grazing above you day eight solo Had to pack him out four and a half miles by myself. Yeah, and then looking behind you there Almost the same size Oh Yeah, I can't believe you let him put this thing right here Hahaha Look at the arrow hole or is that a bullet hole or an arrow hole? It's a bullet hole somebody all we can think because of the way It's just a perfect hole is we think someone must have shot him when he was in velvet when it was still Yeah, pretty soft because it would have broke. Yeah. Yeah, there's no splintering or anything But I can't think of anything else. It would be Amazing Alrighty, oh, we are back in the day. Okay, where we started today's video. It has been quite an adventure Tomorrow's gonna be absolute crap weather. Definitely not gonna be fishing So I think I'm gonna go shoot this bow and get it sighted in fishing freaks Thanks for hanging out with me today.
