12/2/2016 I would like to thank all of you who have given me this platform to fish....and to instruct maybe a few how to chase these great eating fish. I will be releasing a couple more segments before 2017 roles in....what I am doing now is getting ready for spring to role in for "Pre-Spawn" crappie. In January I will be replacing my line putting lubricate on my reels...and making sure that I have new everything...hooks, jigs, split shots, etc.....To all my viewers and subscribers get ready for some Extra Extra fun come end of February early March!! I am already excited!! To all of my viewers that have not subscribed!! You want to make sure you are subscribed so you do not miss not a single segment come spring...

Ok, you sold me on this boat. Had been looking a multiple different brands, but this one seems to have the best reviews and you can go crazy with modifications.

Thank you for the run down on your boat. I am looking at used options now and you have sold me on this one.

Great video and nice boat! I have been watching these videos for years and I finely got one this year!

most in depth explanation of the E10 on youtube...I love my 10E to...and your presentation gives me lots of new ideas...thanks...

Excellent video...I am looking to purchase one. I have been eyeing them for a while now doing my research. You have finally convinced me to make the leap.

You have been very helpful I can't wait to order my crappie gear from you. Thanks again

New Subscriber! I love the boat, and I am just getting started fishing, so I am sure I will learn a lot from your videos. Thank you sir!

Hi CAM, Thank you so much for the hospitality yesterday. The crappie was so good and I was not expecting that lol . Keep up the good work.

Great video...love the fact that you didn't do any drilling it appears, that's a great sense of assurance of no leaking in the boat. I'll probably copycat you on the spider setup for the reels that's really cool, thanks again for all of the tips!!

Cam! My man! The crappie KING!! I JUST BOUGHT YOUR BOAT, BROTHER!! can't wait to use it!

Can't believe I had missed this video at the time. Great boat info. Thanks!

That’s the little boat I want to get for me and my 7 yr old son, great video. You just picked up a subscriber and a like. Great Job

you're the reason why I'm about to buy the same type of boat! Me and my son love watching your videos! we're down the road from you in Macon.

I purchased the same model boat as yours from Dick's about 3 weeks ago and I love it! Great ideas for mods and you solved my dilemma about mounting the depth finder (yes, same as yours) . Excellent video, thank you.

I just bought one this week this boat is light sturdy and a lot of fun

Cam, really good info, thank you. Your boat is perfect for a small lake. I am learning a lot from your experience and excellent videos. Keep up the good work. Tight lines

I really like your setup, I just bought a 8 ft version and picking it up tomorrow. So watching your vidz again and taking tips from you on setting the boat up and size anchors and fish basket usage. great tips and thx again.

Nice set up! Just bought one last month and trying to get it set up for a trip with my dad next weekend. Great simple idea on the fish basket. I'm going to have to steel that! The depth finder is also pretty slick. I have a cheap Garmin 4 that I rigged up to pack in a small cooler and use for ice fishing. I'm going to tweak it for the boat, but if I use it a lot, I'll switch to your set up. The spider set up looks pretty sweet as well!

Enjoy the tour. You got a nice rig. Looking for one myself.Thanks

Fantastic presentation, thanks for posting.

Really nice rig and some awesome upgrades. I have a WaterQuest 10.2 that I’m about to start working on, you’ve given me some good ideas. I just subscribed, glad to find your channel. Thanks for sharing

HELLO GANG.... Sack of Milk is the English interpretation of “sac-a-lait”, the Cajun French name for crappie. The fish are called “white perch” in north Louisiana, but in both places they are so esteemed for their mild, sweet flesh that the Louisiana legislature has declared them the official state freshwater fish.

great video, I like the way you have the boat set up, I had a boat similar but made by pelican, used it for 12 yrs, a fishing machine those type of boats are. look forward to more videos

I just got this boat and it’s awesome. Only had it on the water 2 times and it does great. About $1100 with everything you have to have on public water if you don’t already have anything. It’s a good buy.

Thanks Cam nice rigg I'm definitely aiming to buy one for myself in the near future I'm following you so I can learn more tips. "Fish on"

A fishing pole should be in everybody's hand and I'm jealous of your boat. Its awesome. Subbed you.

Great video ! Love the set up !

Love this boat! I used to have a smaller 8' bass raider I loved. Now have a Sun dolphin 12' American. Not happy with it when I have a friend with me . No handles to attach anything too... working on modifying it now but will be tricky. Your boat is much better Imo.

good videos Cam, enjoy them a lot. Keep up the good work.

Awesome setup you have there.👍👍👍

My man Cam looking forward for some good fishing videos in this new year...I'm about to start posting some myself this year

You the MAN!!! Love that setup.

Hi Cam, Thank you for the great reply. I also have the dual motors (both are Minn Kota's) but on the front motor I found a small screw under the control head that threads into a washer and nut. If you remove them you can turn the control head around and reinstall the screw and nut so you won't have to run the motor in reverse and be able to use the multiple forward speed settings.

Thank You for your video. I love my Pelican 10E. Like you I fish a no gas motor lake. Thanks for some good ideas, I will add some to my boat.

I love crappie fishing and I fish in a kayak. Got a new fish detector this year but I haven't mounted it in the kayak. I live just outside of Nashville. lot of good lakes around here. keep making the videos.

That is a sweet swet up. That spider rig is pretty slick.

* Nice video , I have 2 of these , now my buddys have one . I got my 1st one 9 years ago and we still luv them. We call them buddy boats cause most are plastic pontoonish with 2 seats. I have found that a 40 thrust motorguide with a 3 blade prop works best with 2 small 35ah batteries (wheel chair batteries) makes them easy to carry and last most of the day. I also have mounted our padded folding chair to a plastic office task chair base, works great. If it only had built in dolly wheels like the Bass Baby. I just bout a Bass Baby & we are going to try it this season but its only 8 feet where this pelican bass raider is 10ft 3 in. to be honest If they would make one 9 feet long with rear dolly wheels that would be the ideal size. perfect for 2 ppl and fits well in the bed of most pick up trucks. My friend has a 9 ft Pond prowler made for Bass pro shops but they dont make it any more but its the best size. A 55 motor drains the batterys to fast, a 30 motor not enough power. motorguide may not run as quiet as the minnkota or the newport but the motor guide with the 3 blade prop runs smoother more consistent and better reverse power and that comes in handy more than you know. Oh and i put a drain with a 3/4 in drain plug in the floor at the rear very useful. nice crappie btw, wait till you catch a small 20 pound stripe in one of these :) enjoy.

I'll be sure to drop by. Also thanks for the fish cleaning videos.

you are so right Sir my friend bought one and I weigh 350 and the boat has no essues what so ever. it is fast and very eazy to get in all the wright places. if you don't I would sugest tie a line to your depth finder because like you he clamped it on and hit a stump and lost it. great video Sir

Love it man we just got one hoping to enjoy it with the family

Good job. Great ideas for my boat.

Like your boat. I just talked the warden into going to buy one. Thanks for sharing.....

Got mine at academy, very great boat. Perfect for someone who can't quite get that 21' bass boat yet. perfect for any type of fishing

That boat is sweet. Love the videos keep um coming. 😁

Nice boat, I am subscribed. Looking forward to more videos!

You are one heck of a salesman my goodness

I'm now very interested in your boat selection.....Thanks

I have one.... I love mine also....it's great for one person, easy to get in and out of the water, I'm 68 and don't even work up a sweat.... Easy to setup for different types of fishing....... I love fly fishing, spin casting, long pole jigging shore lines..... And setting long lines and trout lines......this boat works for all.... Just need to find a way to set up a hammock.... " LOL " "LOVE YOUR VIDS KIDDO "

Now that's a sharp set-up Cam! Gonna have to borrow that spider rig design😉😊...keep making these vids my Brother.

Nice job and a very good review!

Awesome setup love it

Another great video brother

the best thing to use for an anchor is old window weights. They are a little harder to come by these days but there's still some out there. They were used in old house windows to help the windows open & close.. Best anchor you can have💯

Love it Cam great Video .

Nice set-up. I fish from my kayak mostly, but sometimes more room would be nice. Enjoy your video's.

You have a very nice setup

Very good video gonna get one of these boat was curious about them.

Great video very informative thank you! I'm considering pulling the trigger on one myself. My only concern that I have with this boat is where I live. I'm in WA state. We have a pretty decent size lake up here that get 2 foot swells some times. The sides seem like I would take water pretty easily if water starts to act up. How easily would this thing get swamped?

Enjoy your videos. Been binge watching this afternoon. Great boat setup but that thing would be hollering for mercy with my cornbread fed butt stretched out in that captain's chair LOL. Keep ripping those paper lips, man

Excellent review. Best so far of the Pelican 10. Could you move the seat as far apart as possible on the rails and tell me what the measurement is between the seats?

Thanks for the info. Just got my bass raider today... Mods coming...

Gordon Bresette2 days agoHighlighted comment I like your videos and you mentioned how when you catch one the other fish are enticed I'm not a know it all by no means but crappies are my life and have spent as much time studying their behavior as I have fishing for them I have discovered that noise will make them start biting again once they stop just slosh your hand in the water or stomp on the bottom of the boat it sounds crazy but it works also if you are on a school and you can see the fish caught a few and they quit biting just try something different just a suggestion

I had a Bass Hunter for many years that is a bit like what you have, but probably not as durable. I'd recommend you consider transporting it with the battery out of the boat as that was what started the destruction of the Bass Hunter I use to own, may it RIP. Always amazes me how people can spider rig without having a tangled mess.

Yes, pics of the spider rig apparatus and how it sits in the boat. I have a store bought spider rig for my tracker boat, but I don't want to drill holes in the pond boat, like you said.

The Pelican Bass Raider 10E is 10'2" long, 4'2" wide & 145 lb. in weight.

HELLO GANG...I AM GOING TO BE RELEASING OUR NEXT VIDEO "FISH FRY FRIDAY" IN SEVERAL DAYS!! I WILL BE FRYING SOME OF THE CRAPPIE YOU HAVE BEEN SEEING ME CATCH ON AN OPEN FIRE DOWN BY THE LAKE(see down stairs video of last video cooking fish by the lake) I WILL BE USING HUSH PUPPY BATTER TO COAT THE FISH IN(compliments of 1 of our subs Dell Ervin)....AND THEN FRY THEM WITH HOME STYLE FRESH CUT FRIES & HUSH PUPPY'S +HOT SAUCE AND SPICY MUSTARD FOR DIPPING......MAYBE A BEER OR TWO....HANG OUT WITH ME FOR A WHILE GANG!! THIS YOU WILL WANT TO SEE!!

I used to have a small set-up too. You can take the bolt/screw out of the head on that front motor and spin that head180 out. You might have to drill another hole in the shaft.

Like the little boats I'm in the market of getting one now to try to get to them good spots on the lake for them crappies

Cam, i'm watching this old video and i'm wondering if you updated your depth finder ?. I will be purchasing this boat next spring. Thanks!

How fast do crappie grow? Rule of thumb is 10" in 3 years and 1" per year thereafter. However, if the cover is good and food source is great they will hit near 10" in 2 years. The key is adequate cover and food source.

Very nice setup.

Nice setup!

Cool setup

Great Channel and Video. I'm shopping one of these. I'm pretty sure and please correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure this boat weights 145lbs

The sun dolphin sportsmans boats are the same as the pelican bass raiders. I got my 10ft SD sportsman from HD for 550 shipped to my front door. First I used a minn kota 55lb thrust. It moved it ok but if you are out on a large lake or might venture to a place with large gators get a gas motor to move a lil more confidently. I went with the 2.5hp Honda.

nice setup. as soon as I got the new tacoma first thing little man said was dad we need a trailer and a boat!!

Thx again Champ👊

Hey man, I've had a similar boat (Bass Hunter Stalker II) for about 6-7 years. I love it. Don't have mine tricked out like you do, but I may be picking up a few ideas. Even though I have a bass boat, I still find time to fish out of my Stalker II.

I love it!!

No problem Fam.

Cam. Is your depth finder the Fishing Buddy Max DI? Man you have taught me so much about Crappie fishing! My wife just caught a 15 incher. We limited out using your nasty hooks and red and black with a chartreuse tail. Do you ever fish at night using submersible green lights? The lights attract phytoplankton, which attract minnows, which attract Crappie. Just bought a Bass Raider 10 E and a Minkota 55 Duro max with the adjustable speed. I am just needing to know about getting a depth finder here in Missouri. Thanks for your infomative videos, and your tackle selection. Just waiting to get nasty stick combo. Thanks, Robin 👍

Watching this right now i have one just like it i call mine (side kick) i love your set up, mine is a 10'3 pelican. Thats bad ass !

I have one of these and absolutely love it. We modified the heck out of it and also use two motors as you described. Good video. Checkout our mods if you get time. Fish on!

Hey buddy, I was wondering if I could come there this Saturday October 28 . Let me know, I can bring my Sundolpin boat as well.

Cool rod holder you built dude.

Really super nice.. Looks like you did this video 4 years ago.. How is the boat today for you? I'm thinking about buying an X10 Twin Troller..

Use mine in saltwater, you gave me some good ideas with your rod holders for next year. So you and people know you can put a keel guard on the pontoons.

Very informative video, upload more crappie fishing video and moreover I subscribed your channel

Great review. Been thinking about getting one vs my 12' alum jon boat. Would you recommend it over Jon boat? Thanks for sharing.

Man I have the same lil boat and I love it

Reginald Lars...so you just want pics of the spider rig + rod holder? more less how it sits in the boat? yes?

I'm interested in that rod holder build!

Sweet setup

Nice sir !

Hey cam again wat model depth finder do u have I know it's a hummingbird portable but wat model thank u I wanna purchase one

Hi, my name is Rick, and I just bought a boat very similar to the one you are showing. It’s called a Field & Stream tracker 10’ long. I haven’t even put it on the water yet, but I am afraid of leaving it out in the winter! I live in S. New Jersey. I guess I am afraid of the boat cracking or anything before I even get to use it. I would like your thoughts about what I can do with my boat before it’s too late. Thanks, Rick

nice rig perfect setup

Hey Cam, this is Louis I meet you this morning at the lake. We didn’t catch anything but my girlfriend got the hang of using the bait caster with help from Bert, lol. I definitely want to get a boat like this. Any suggestions?

Hello CAM, I am a little late to the party. I just bought a nice used Bass Raider today from a friend. I Like the depth finder set up. Can you tell me what brand or model that is and does it come with the clamp set up? I enjoyed you video and it has given me a direction to go. Thank you in advance.
