 Hey guys shabber one thousand here today We're gonna open up this box and see what we got in it. I think it's gonna be pretty cool I got something else show you that's really neat. So stick around. Let's see what's going on here Okay guys, so the first thing I'm gonna show you if you watch monkey's channel you've probably already seen this I got her a new reel which Was supposed to be my reel Because I was looking for I was looking for a 33 a vintage 33 was up to 33 a classic anything like that Well, I ran across this thing. It's not it's not vintage. It's not classic. It's brand new It is a bite alert. Okay, so I was showing her this and She said whoa, man, that's pretty cool. That'll help me to let me know when I get a bite I'm like, yeah, I see you want one. She's like, yeah Yeah, go ahead and give me one. It's 20 bucks $6 shipping or something. I Got the look and it's the only one that had It's the only one I can find except one other one through Zebco, which was 60 some dollars Okay, 66 bucks or something like that So ordered it for she got her yesterday This is a cool thing. There's a little switch here now Man this thing feels smooth. It feels nice. Okay, there's a string. I don't know if you can see that But there it is. All right, so If you get a bite a little tug on there, that's what it does it lets you know you've got a bite Now I wanted one just because they're cool. I know when I get a bite, but anyway, that's monkeys I'm gonna be putting it on her on her rod Now now this is mine and I did find a vintage Zebco 33 which was 16 bucks, I think Plus almost $10 in shipping so it was about the same amount as hers, but here's mine just an old Just an old Zebco 33 now this thing's in pretty good shape. It's got some wear on it But it's in really good shape and on the bottom. Can you see that? Says made in the USA Right there made in USA. All right, so this thing I've been looking for one of these for a while These things are just great all-around reels now. This one is also a Zebco 33 But it's it's just it's plastic This one's metal with two rivets It's just I don't like it. So I'm gonna put my string on Here, so let's check this out If I remember right Inside here And there was one of these for 20 bucks About the same thing It was metal on here for 20 bucks and it was It was in horrible condition. So Okay, so it's got a cover lock on it right there. I'll have to Loosen that screw to take the cover out of or take the cover off of it Let's go ahead and do that. A monkey's already got line on it So I think for her review, I'll leave that line on it. I think it's 10 pounds Something like that So I'll just leave it on there. Now. This is what I was looking at right here There's a little pin there. Can you see that pin now that comes out like that when you wind the string now over time I've had a bunch of these. I love them over time. It'll get a little Like a little cut worn in there from your string. Okay This one's in perfect condition as far as that goes The other one that I looked at for 20, which wasn't in this good of shape They didn't have they didn't have the cover off of it. So I Was like no, I'll just go with this one It is it does have bearings in it and the way this works This little lock this right here Right in there. I don't know if the camera's picking it up. I'm in the sun I got I got a hood coming for this thing in a new lens because I broke mine I'll share that to you when that comes in see a little lock there What this does is when you turn that see the lock comes out that little tab right there and What that does is it holds the cap on Okay, it just puts pressure on that and holds the cap on so I think it's Like that. So it just puts a little pressure on that cap. So the cap does not come off on you And the back comes off real easy Wow, it's it's very good shape in there all metal gears. I love the drag on these things There's the drag so you don't have that little wheel up on top. I hate that wheel on top. I mean these drags are real They're real sensitive. Okay, so this looks like it's oiled up pretty good. I don't think I'm gonna have to mess with it So I'm not going to and this just goes on. There's two little Haves there and it just goes on like that Okay. All right, cool now What I'm gonna do I hope My neck's not hitting the mic. I'm sorry about that So I'm gonna go ahead We're gonna put mine on here And I'm just going to wind this up off of this Into my reel For now because I forgot to get new string But this this string is not that old it'll be fine. Okay. I'm just going to cut my hook My hook off here got Bruno in the boat. He's right behind me He won it outside today. It's a beautiful day So I'll sit this over there put my knife away Now I want to take go ahead and take this all just Just loosen that she keeps asking me Well, it fit our rods. Well, they fit our rods Fit any rod That's universal. Okay, and she asked me again I think those will fit our rods I guess I I think they will And you just put the new one on there And they're just like that I'm gonna screw that back in there The rods ain't too bad. I mean for cheap Walmart stuff They're okay. It's not my favorite. I like the uh The ugly sticks or or a bug or sis uh, this is uh because the They're they're real sensitive up here. See this is real thick. I mean You know, it'll bend but an ugly stick you can pretty much bend it backwards And they're real sensitive up here for when you got a bite. So What I want to do now I got this reel off Just going to release it so the line comes out Now what I want to do is I'm going to take this See this comes apart I do like Like that a lot of guys don't like them Because when you're casting Sometimes they'll They'll get loose and they'll come out on you and if you if you're not paying attention It'll come out and you got a real back in and put it back in I don't have too much of an issue with that So what we're going to do I'm just going to run it through this first eye Right here And I want to run it through my bezel A lot of people call these a veil. That's not a veil guys. It's a bezel And I'm just going to just going to make me a slipknot right here This might take a second. I don't want to say it's just I don't know. It's just going to make a slipknot Just got to be tight enough to start winding because I mean if you get down to that far And that fish is still going with it You're probably not going to get him anyway guys Keeping on my batteries these uh These wireless mics I got they're phenomenal They're awesome and I love them But they sure do go through batteries, but they are They are the professional grade so See I keep hitting These lapel mics you know I keep My beard and my chin keeps hitting it. So I'm sorry about that It's a little breezy Well, I really really have to sharpen this knife man. There we go Because you don't want a big tail on it because you just want to slipknot see how that's slipping Because if you get a big tail on it it'll Um It'll want to tangle on you. I'm just going to slide this slide this over here like that Pull it tight Not that tight Fail all right, let's do this again. Let's do this again Put it in there I should have said Just pull it snug not tight Just snug it up like that. All right now. We'll want to take our bezel Not well, I called a veil for years. My dad kept wanting us a bezel sign. It's not a veil Veil is on an open face So Then as I got older as like he's right. That's not a veil Veil flips over, you know, like the wedding veil flips This is a bezel just cover something up All right now I'm just going to put a little pressure I'm going to hold it right there just kind of like I'm winding in a fish winding reeling in a fish and it'll come off the other reel See And I'm just going to transfer it over to this one. I think I'll leave hers Hers is pretty strong. I'll see if she likes it better I put the yellow on so she can see it better We'll just have to see whichever one she likes better is yellow is 40 pound I know you're not supposed to put 40 pound on these things, but it's fine But we'll just have to see what she likes And we'll go from there whichever one she likes I'll leave on for So I'm going to go ahead and transfer this over And then we'll hook it all back up. Okay guys, so I don't have a hook on here, but I do have a sinker on here. Let's give this a cast and see Holy shit. I'm on the other side of the road over there Uh, not even trying That's a good 25 to 30 yards These things just cast nice and smooth I wasn't even trying So if you got a piece of chicken liver or some bait on there These are good bass fishing poles or reels man. I'm telling you make sure there ain't a car coming Here we go Whoa, that's way over there. Oh, yeah, that's definitely that was definitely 30 yards without even trying And if you just want to flick it if you don't want to go too far I know you guys probably can't see where it's going, but you can just um, you know, just give it a little And you can stop it with your Thing there so you don't get hung up in a snag Oh, I love these I love these reels man. Oh, yeah I wasn't even trying that's a good 50 yards anyway that That went on the other side of the road up there Almost to that that pole. I don't know if you can see that pole up there in front of Jerry's house there So I love these things I'm real happy with it. I think I need to put a little drop of oil in these here because I hear one of them kind of like Whistling a little bit and the drags on these things are awesome. So I usually set it to where It takes just a little bit to pull it out and then if I need more as I'm fishing You know, then I can turn that back That little knob back as I'm fishing Depending on the size of the fish, you know, so there we go All right One more cast, right? Oh, yeah, oh shit car coming I want to catch a car. There we go Maybe a carp not a car It'll take out somebody's windshield. That'd be pretty embarrassing and expensive But I had to order I dropped my damn camera when we was camping. So I had to order another lens That's why it looks so funny because I got a filter on it. So I had to order another UV filter not lens The filter and it's also I got it in a kit with the hood that plastic thing that That uh, well, it's rubber. It also keeps the lens flare down. So Oh, yeah, that's way over there. That is out there boys. Come on. Oh, yeah, cool That was just in the nick of time All right, so I'm going to put my hook on here And then I'm going to set monkeys up and we'll give it a couple casts and see how it does Okay guys, we've got monkey set up. Well, that's a that's pretty looking good Pretty good looking rod and reel there. Also, you can change this from Right handed to left handed if you want. I do like that handle But let's give this a cast It feels pretty good Whoops Oh, shit Man, she's gonna be casting like a pro with this thing. I'll tell you That cast as good as mine Reels nice Of course, it's mono filament, you know always does cast in real smooth I may go with that on mine. I'm not sure Oh, shit. I didn't hear that hit the ground. It did man Well, she cast this thing this ain't no joke You can adjust the sensitivity on it High and low. I'll put it on high for Let's uh Let's turn this on again here Now when she gets a bite You know, it'll do that it also lights up for so at night, you know, I mean, that's that's a little tiny tug Because she has trouble seeing her pole, you know This does have one of those for the uh For the drag One of those wheels. I really don't Like them as much It does work pretty smooth though. There we go All right Well hers is done. I'm going to put the hook on this I'll be right back with you guys If I can find another one of these I'm going to get me one of these too. So I'll be right back with you Okay, guys I wanted to throw this in here real quick a fun fact um The Zepco 33 Came out the I'll read this to you the first model 33 were introduced Excuse me in late 1954 or early 1955 At that time the company would still have been using the name Zero hour bomb company. Okay, that that's what they went by If you look them up, um, you can find them online Old ones that they're expensive. They're around 50 75 bucks But they're they're from the early 50s and like from the 40 from the late 40s. It's still You can look them up under um Zepco zero hour or Zero hour bomb company um In 1956 The name Zepco was officially adopted Zepco still produces a model 33 to this day. It is however Very cheaply made in china, which is true. I showed you the new ones. We just got not long ago and I just don't like them Um, but mine as you can see made in usa Um, but so that was just a fun fact. It's hard to date fishing reel like that So I don't know what your mine is Uh, I had a similar one that was bought brand new from an old gentleman that I got a yard sale He still had to receive from the damn thing. He bought it at uh um What's the name of that place? J.C. Whit was it j.C. Whitney Out of a magazine. No, not j.C. Sears and road buck. He bought it Sears and road buck Uh in 1967 And that thing still worked like like brand new. Uh, I think he gave like a dollar 75 for Um, I think it was on sale But uh, he bought it brand new Um, I use that for many years I I don't know what I think it got I think it got stolen. Yeah, I believe if I remember right it got stolen So just a fun fact. So I don't know what this one is because they used that same The same that same style for years and years and years even up into the 80s except in the 80s Now they they weren't metal. They didn't have the metal Foot on them. They were plastic. They were all plastic in the 80s. I know because I bought one in 80 Seven or 88 and that's what and it was new then it was brand new So I don't know. I'm guessing maybe 70s ish right in there Is what I'm guessing this to be maybe it might even be late 60s Like I say you can't there's no numbers on him. You can't you can't tell Sometimes you can tell by looking at the gears and things like that, but It's fine. I don't care. It's I love it. So anyway, fun fact. Just thought I'd throw that in there for you Okay guys also what this has Down here at the bottom I'll show it to you See that hole right there a little hole that's a drain hole Because you know your line's wet when it's coming in and that's so when you're rolling it in it drips out um I like this thing. So still haven't taken this off Uh, I like the real now. I like hers a lot too. Um, that's uh And I kind of like the pink rod you can really see it real well after dork But that's just a good looking a good looking setup. She's got there. So I got her hooked up Uh, so hopefully I think one of the biggest problems she has is And I hate but You know teach his own right She'll get a text. She'll be looking at a text. I'll be sitting there watching her pull like that And finally I'll say hi, she'll look down at her pole Oh Uh, and she's also got to get she she won't um, she won't set the hook by You know wait until it's going and giving it a yank what she does is she'll go She'll The pole she just takes the pole because I'm like, no, you got a yank and set that hook So she'll learn or she's like she'll see a bird She'll be watching a bird or looking at the sites and join the weather and whatnot. I'm like, uh, your pole so hopefully this You know when it does that she'll be able to uh I look oh airplane boy. He's low But uh, hopefully, you know, it'll give her The the warning she needs that she's getting a bite because that's real sensitive. So that's pretty cool So that's about all I got for you guys today. So tomorrow stay tuned for some fishing weather providing and providing she don't have a lot of patience tomorrow Uh, right now. I don't think she has any so if she don't have any patience We're gonna go even if she has one or two, I'm sure she'll want to go Maybe we'll do some night fishing And that's also good because she has to keep turning her light on And uh, because she can't see her pole as well as I can see him I can see mine, but hers is really good to see but She still has trouble after after dark, you know seeing her pole So hopefully this will really help her after dark, you know, tching tching And it'll start going off and she can reach down pick her pole up and be ready for it. So hopefully this will help her So anyway, there you go. Monk you're set up. I'm set up We're gonna fish tomorrow guys. So yeah, thanks for joining me. Appreciate it Uh, I thought I got right now, but um, so we'll do We'll do a full review on these tomorrow And maybe I'll cast hers out a few times See how it how it does see what uh, if I can find another one for 20 bucks I'm buying it. I don't I don't care. I'm buying it. Uh, because like I said, there's 60 or 60 66 bucks Through zebcoe, uh, man, it it feels smooth. It feels right Uh, especially with monofilament monofilamental line is as always casted smooth it winds in smooth It's just not as strong as the braided as like I said, this is uh This I think is 10 or 12 pound test And it's it's thicker Than this braided line. That's 40 pounds. So, you know, that's kind of why I like the braided line um You know, there's pros and cons about everything, but you know, like the bait casters, they say don't use braided line Now I have and I've never had an issue with it But you shouldn't the monofilament on a bait casters Good, but I mean if you if you're going 20 pound test or something like that You're going for the big fish You know The monofilament just gets so thick, you know what I mean? And there you go. Now you're having trouble casting that so But you know, like I said, I got I put 40 pounds on these and the reason why I went with 40 pounds Is really not to catch a 40 pound fish. It's because you know, we do a lot of river fishing here There's a lot of snags. She gets up in the trees and stuff And with this stuff, I can actually pull the tree limb down and unhook it. You know what I mean with that 40 pound So that's why I run 40 pound on it. But we'll give her a shot with the uh At least with her. I think it's 12 pound. It's 10 or 12 pound test, which is plenty. I mean, I brought, you know I brought some big catfish 15 18 pound catfish in on 10 and 12 pound test But I used to run 14 pound and I know I brought You know, I brought in several 20 pounders carp You know, I don't know what they would weigh, but you guys know how they get there huge and I can bring carp in all day long You just got to fight them a little more. You got to play with them a little more You can't just reel them in like you can on this 40 pound But that's okay. We'll just see how she likes it and uh, if she does I'll just I'll get her You know, maybe some 18 pound tests or 20 pound tests But because I think she's she's getting about her cast and she just got a She gets way too far back like just a cast. You don't have to just you know 10 and 2 10 and 2 I had to worry my ex one time As a teacher, you know, she'd been fishing before but kind of like monkey and I never really fish fish She's like, well, how do you get that to cast so smooth because she'd be like Just pretty much throw it right in the water five feet out from her. She's like, how do you do that? So I told her, you know, you hold that button All right, you started about two o'clock when you get to 10 o'clock, let it go. All right She's like, okay All right, so now give it a cast and get her all baited She's looking good too, man. Just just perfect. She gets a 10 o'clock and she's let's go the whole rod Through the rod right into the lake. Oh my god She's a what you said let it go. I said I meant the button release the button So I started going to the truck and she's like, where are you going? I'm gonna go get a new pole. I'll be back He's mine. Don't throw in the water Come back mines all tangled But yeah, I said just when you get to 10 let it go. She let it go You said let it go Get a little warm out here now, but so anyway, hopefully that'll help her and um It's nice and smooth. So I think she'll I think she'll like it and um That way she can get you know better at fishing. So she can catch big fish and bring some big fish in and uh, hopefully um When the fish start hitting good once the river goes down and stuff when fish starts hitting good We'll do a catch and cook. So that'll be fun. So stay tuned for more videos like that And um, so I'm going to go ahead and go and get off here and get in house for it's a little cooler take Bruno in and We'll see you guys soon. Shea Bear the myth man legend. Thanks for watching monk. You're ready to go and I'm ready to go We'll see you guys soon. Bye. Bye and take care
