 Welcome back to the treehouse ladies and gentlemen exciting times here We have chicks that are going to be hatching out of the wrackly roosts any minute now in any hour I'm kind of on standby my original plan was to go fishing today next next couple days But I'm kind of kind of on watch. I'm on chick watch right now So it might happen might happen during this vlog since I'm not going fishing today waiting on the chicks Working on a couple things. I'm doing vessel prep So I've got a challenge that I'm going to be doing soon an extended Hardcore fishing video slash survival. What have you so we're going to be doing vessel prep and also installing Our our new Doppler unit. Now. This is the forward-facing sonar turret. This is the foresight Which also has a wireless Controller I just realized It's pretty cool. It looks simple to install So we'll see so we're gonna be installing that test that out And we're just working on things and waiting on chicks to hatch So I'm a little worried about the the hatching process I don't think all the eggs were incubated at the same time. So it could be complete mess I don't know how many are gonna survive What we're here for it. We're here for the adventure. You guys are coming along So let's go do a chicken check right now. I hear some squawking going on in here. Somebody's laying an egg Things are happening It's like we got an Easter egg How we doing boy and girls who's in here squawking? Okay Box drama they all want to fight over the one nesting box for some reason now now we're gonna check on Very white this other one will shut up How we doing still got eggs? I don't hear any cheaping No cheaping yet So I've got this little house For mama and the babies. I'm going to fill that with straw They're gonna have their own water and food in there and then I'm just gonna close that up Basically just gonna put this out in front For a period of time so the other chickens can't get in there and bother them till they feel comfortable. I Don't really know what's gonna happen in terms of the other chickens fighting with the with the chicks or trying to To hurt them. I've heard you could just let them go let them do their thing and mama will protect them And all that's good and I've heard That ain't gonna work, so I don't know it's an experiment. We're gonna see what happens garden check with OSG What have you got over here? The tag on blackberries Last time they saw this there was no growth in here whatsoever. Maybe there wasn't even just planted So, you know what you're like literally witnessing I checked this earlier this morning bean sprouts popping We've got green beans lettuce all these little things I feel like my row is definitely not even supposed to get for planting with the toddler. Yeah, definitely not even Yeah, lettuce okra's beets are down in here somewhere and then we got green beans and then berries berries Recently we so we've been picking blackberries actually out of the woods wild blackberries and they're very thorny We're pretty nasty You actually made a jam that was really good Crisp, I mean, you know living off land here. What is that? Bug is already discovered looks like an African ant. I don't know what's that heck? That was it'll probably your house or second and then hopefully These will kind of grow in a different period that the wild blackberries will so we can pick the wilds And then we can have our own here. You know what I'm saying You know what? We're actually thinking about doing is we're thinking about Recharging the the lake life channel just naming it something different. Yeah. Yeah, I just decided this So it will we can include all of our I don't know. We just do so much around here. I feel like it's film worthy all the Organic organic granola stuff and then the recipes. She's not interested. No, that's not happening You just here for moral support. Do you know what that means? You're just here to help just Keep me going Thanks. All right. I am trying to figure out this fuse panel. This is a bus bar y'all It's a little cattywampus, but good news is we have a bus bar in our rod box Right here next to our live scope Brain so the the wiring will be pretty easy So I just got to figure out what's positive and negative. That's kind of important Okay, I believe I've cracked the code here and someone was obviously confused on this too that wired it and Quite honestly, this is how my opus my camper came wired with one of these Type deals and it was also confusing nice. I switched it But this top is a bus bar for negative So all the negative goes to the top section and then you can just choose Which positive you want to go to and have a fuse on it? So they don't have to correspond So you can basically put any of the negatives in any order up there, but then you're gonna have to pick One here and then put a fuse in it for positive So it shouldn't be too hard to do. First of all, why am I why am I doing this? Why am I doing this right now? Wanted to fish the beginning part of the season the bass season the heavy up shallow, you know Getting after it up shallow on the stumps all that stuff where I'm gonna be Knocking around a little bit with the instruments. I wanted to get that out of the way without this Extra turret on there because I didn't know if it'd be easy to take off. Apparently this one is Pretty easy to just disconnect. I'm not sure we're gonna see about that but I'm just gonna leave it on there most likely and This enables me to like right now when everything's moving off. Sure. We got a post spawn Croppy you got, you know, white best schools large mouth on brush piles all that fun stuff Now I can get out there in the deep deeps and do the scanning Spotlogging and then you know in the fall if I want to go up shallow again I could take it off But this is pretty much gonna be a summer program for me. So let's grab the unit Let's see if we can install this thing without screwing it up So I found an extra perspective mode mount in the garage and I'm hoping that I'll be able to Mount this one to this this is an older model So we're about to see if I could just switch these two in and out by the Bing by the boom It's going to be fabulous All right, so if we could take this off just this part right here because this whole mount would be Sort of a pain a match up get an additional mount. That's unfortunately just dream-crushing Not a huge deal, but I definitely want to have a second one so I can just take it off really quick Not have to worry about it because my last one I had a custom cover made for the bone So I never had to take it off So Two reasons I want to be able to cover the boat without having to adjust the cover and then also just take it off one I'm like in a stumpy spot. I don't I don't want to damage it for the most part the foresight insulation so far Has been very easy. It's just hardware Now it's time for the wiring and that's where things always get interesting So little redneck innovation here. No idea this is gonna work And I've never wired a full 21-foot bass boat Electronics at the bow to whatever so I don't exactly know what I'm doing, but We're gonna try so I'm gonna take this weed eater string, okay I ever good every good Dude has some weed eater string laying around It's stiff enough where I can feed it through this hole right here now. This Phoenix is like beautiful at the front because it's got four holes for Wiring additional accessories But I just have to feed it over to the right And I don't know if this is gonna be stiff enough to actually work But we're gonna try and see if we can see it coming out this other side. It's gonna turn the slide on See if I could see this bright yellow We did her line Yeah, definitely don't see it. I don't know where it's going Can't do this. It's just gonna The right angle of the dangle here Okay weed eater line not working. We're gonna have to bump it up We're going with some Some wire some steel wire. I don't know how else to do it I guess if you're a pro you have like a snake system like a plumbing snake you just get in there That would probably work the best, but this is all I got. Oh, I got it. I got it. I Got it first try Get back there But I can see it Keep feeding it through one of the things I commonly get asked at boat ramps is How do you like that Phoenix? and Usually what I say is one of my favorite things about it is the the finishing like the the build quality on the detail is good and Everything's just clean like under the consoles clean Most of the wiring in here is done Pretty well from the factory got the wire in I'm gonna have to run an extension So I've got some 14 gauge wire here. I kind of built a little kit from my camper wiring experience By the way, not a sponsor, but holy crud these husky boxes just for like Organization of stuff. They got these clear tops that open like our bass mafia boxes You completely take them off or you can hinge them like that Bass mafia box with all the componentry in there and then all my wiring Is in here, so I'm gonna get some 14 gauge wire and splice it and I've got some Interesting little splicers if you guys have never seen these before And you're into doing your own wiring work with your boats or whatever There's these little they're called wago Wago connectors. All right, so usually You know you take the you take the little blue deals With the plastic and you crimp them on both sides and you heat shrink them. Well with this You can just run the wire in it. It's got these little clamps easily disconnect them I don't know how it's gonna do with moisture We're gonna find out but these should be money for this. There's one right there So I got two of them For that 14 gauge size. Hopefully that'll work All right, we got a wire Attached to our wire We're gonna feed it through that hole and then we'll splice it inside of the rod box All right, now we're ready to put on our connectors I'm gonna put on some heat shrink Just gonna try to keep the neatness of The silver bullet going here. All right, we're wired up negative bus bar got the positive right there It's only a five amp fuse. I don't know if that's gonna work, but we're about to find out So this is the remote and it's actually Bluetooth I'm supposing which is really cool. So I could just put it wherever I'll have to hardwire it in. It's one more step to do All right, I don't know how it's supposed to pair. I I know nothing instructions are right here scan mode Attach foresight till I connect power leads mount the foot pedal in this desired location. That's all it says I'm just gonna turn on all power Full program my power switch here, which I think connects to that accessory board Okay remote Okay, something's not working There's a button here. Okay, let's see if this thing is paired up I'm an idiot. I was like what? My wiring couldn't have been not bad. It could have been could have been real bad up quite honestly But I think I did an okay job. I Just I don't see how this is gonna pair. I don't see how this is gonna pair with that. Just I just saw it move Oh, it's working. It's working There goes slick willy biscuits Dang, I'll check this out. So quiet. I didn't even hear it. I guess it's just automatically paired There she blows Why bam LFG wiring jobs What's up? Okay, so what I'll do is I'll tuck these wires up a little bit make them all nice and neat put some zip ties in the connection Final connection that I made That's kind of stuck up here Show you guys So that's what it looks like right there using those Way goes waggos everyone to say it and I just zip tied it. I don't know how that's gonna hold up with the moisture But there's this beautiful little lip up there where I can tuck these wires Okay job complete It feels pretty stable You know, I feel like it's it is gonna be deep enough, you know, I could still push it down a little bit more I don't want to get this thing too long to where it's just rattling around and I could put like a brace right here, but that kind of defeats the purpose of this is the best part of it Just quick disconnect So you just unscrew this and this pops out of this little Latch Gotta look at it. I'm still not sure what I'm doing. Okay, that goes down and I just pop it off We'll see when we hit some waves. We'll see how solid it is, but everything feels really good and it's quiet Which is really nice, especially for the crappies getting close Love to see it. Okay Just gave the chicken some treats. It's time to check All the eggs. Here's our mother Our broody hen technically at the moment See if we got any Close to hatching How would we really know this is kind of slick how I've got this box So there's no bottom so I can just lift it up when the chicks have hatched and then I Don't have to worry about them getting over that lip They're so warm feel moving in there if they're about to hatch. I gotta go get a flashlight and check Definitely a chicken in there. Oh my gosh. It's starting to crack It's cracking That one's that one's happening right now It just moved like we're in that scene in Jurassic Park This is happening guys The show is oh my god. It literally moved again. It's trying to hatch out. All right this one. Oh My gosh, this chicken is moving in here guys This little chick is moving. All right. This is happening like this is the next The next 24 hours it is going down I don't know if you could see this It's gonna be really hard to see this front beige colored egg Right there. It is cracking It is cracking right there like literally when I picked it up It started it started hatching Okay, it's not hatching yet. I mean, but it's just starting Open Okay, it's a pink egg or it's a beige colored egg It's right here if you look really close you can see that it's starting to Starting to crack a little bit That's the chickens Oh my gosh, I hear it Did you hear that? Yeah, do you hear that peep? Okay, Barry White she needs to get back to her nests. Let's leave her alone. Let's let her do her thing. Okay, I Heard like little cheeps inside of the egg. I don't even know if that's possible She heard it too got camera here White bass fish cakes going on you guys have seen the white bass fish cakes. I Know some of you commented. They're they're really good if you haven't tried them got to try them So some of the white bass have been caught the other day. Those are going in there. We caught I think we had 10 so there's 20 fillets in there. We're gonna see if that's gonna be enough. Is it enough for everybody? Couple of them and then a little appetizer. We got some shishitos shishito peppers little ranch Couple cold pops good to go Not a fish cake left So delicious Chickens are going in here to roost. Let's just see We got any hatchlings or this is probably gonna happen in the middle of the night, but You got any babies trying to come out he is like so broody Can I see because you kind of had one starting to hatch out on us? I guess she's got it handled mother's nose best Think when I wake up tomorrow morning, it's gonna be cheap cheap cheap going on So you guys stay tuned Doppler unit installed on the silver bullet Fishing trip to come on that. Thank you guys for hanging out with me here at the treehouse today If you want to stay tuned for more outdoor action, you know what to do and I'll see you guys on another outdoor adventure
