Okoboji is a very nice lake but one of the resort owners is not. He tried to let out water to down south by Spencer and Cherokee saying “they can’t handle 3 in of more water.” This was after the worst floods in Spencer which happens to Be right down south of there.

I LOVE your content sobi. I feel like you put in too much effort to make your videos quality. I remember the fist time seeing your stuff the quality and the sub count didnt match up right. I watch a lot of youtube. Advice would be to film more often. Lower quality. Your personality and the fishing makes the content. Not the editing. Upload more often. Once a week at least. And your channel will explode.
