My favorite fishing youtuber to watch right now.... just some normal guys catching fish without a huge budget and fancy boat!

@joebob5998 5 жыл бұрын

Thats awesome guys. Especially the life vests. 😂😂 I spents many years in a 16’ aluminum with a 35 hp engine. I was only guy that didnt have a bass boat in our club. Its makes you slow down and fish, hone your skills. My wall full of trophies and plaques backs up that statement. Most of them being first place. Stay true to who you are. Nothing better than watching all the guys talk about the pile of crap boat that just kicked our asses. Good luck boys.

Me and my partner won and placed in many top 5s out of my 17' bass tracker with a 40hp force engine. Out of aquia creek and Lapr tournaments out of leesylvania. We have weighed many 20+lb bags. Win u win in a john boat u have won a few bucks. When you win out of a 21' bass boat u will always stay in the hole. My bass tracker will run a week on 12 gallons and runs 32mph with 2 people and gear. It rarely broke down and i paid 1200.00 for it used. Those $60,000 bass boats will rarely recoup just the boat payment. Ive owned those boats and am happy i downsized.

While I agree and you're not wrong, there's a big grey area too... the 18 foot used glass boats are definitely and overlooked option.

I agree, sometimes running long distances can hurt you. I won't ever forget one particular tournament I fished at Kerr lake. My buddy said he knew an area that held fish 30 miles from the launch. We left and caught fish then had to endure an hour ride in whitecaps back to the boat ramp. We finished third but the two boats that beat us fished within a mile of the launch.

Fished one tournament year’s ago with just a trolling motor. Won the tournament and got the big bass prize. Big bass weighed in over 6 pounds. We didn’t even have a watch with us and got back up at the ramp 2 hours early and just fished around the ramp till time to check in. Won over $100.00 and a case of boat motor oil!

Carl Zluticky i fished out of a jon boat for 3 years and never ended up winning a tournament and had days where if I could have ran to find one more keeper we could have. I finally saved up to buy a skeeter and now I’m doing great in the local tournaments and am making a run for aoy.

I fish big boat tournaments a lot out of my 12' Deep V conversion and do pretty good. I've fished 4 open tournaments so far this year between fishing the Oklahoma 2 Man Boat Tournament Assication's tournaments and have cashed a check 3 of the 4 with a 2nd place being the best finish so far this year in a Open big boat tournament.. And there nothing better then the looks on the faces when driving out of the parking area with my 12' boat in tow and check in my back pocket. You would think I have a 3rd eye or something by the looks I usually get when I pull in for check in and pre tournament meeting...lol

i see you have a 12ft jon boat with two people and gear and some deck work and plywood. So my question is is that jon boat manufacturer claimed max weight of 400ish pounds pretty far off? I am about to purchase a 12ft cheap and want to carry two people, gear, and some bass boat mods like a deck and rear deck but i do not want to over fill the boat. So do these get around well and can tote more than manufacturer claims?
