Thanks for watching everyone! What is your favorite cooler?

“Match your cooler to your beer.” Best advice I’ve heard yet lol

yeti and the roto molded crew are solving a problem that doesn't exist. Kudos to them, it's a good business model for people who are inclined to spend needless money to keep up with the neighbors.

Thanks for the advice and comparison’s on those coolers Yak! Great video!👍🏾

Those new generation Yeti style coolers are amazing, but the truth is that most people (myself) only need it to keep things cool for the day. When my wife and I go on fishing trips we always take the Coleman over our Yeti, it's lighter, and because of the thinner walls just holds much more. The Coleman will easily keep ice in all day on the hottest days. good video.

Jack, welcome back with a fun video! I'm not knocking your financial or real estate videos. I gotta throw a tip back to you on covering your coolers for a day out in direct sunlight...Flextech! Almost time to get the kayaks out and explore some new waters here in NC. Thanks for doing what you do! LOL! I still get the WD40 on the headlights video on my feed now and then.

my favorite cooler is the rtic i got for free from work about 6 years ago. other than that i would never pay 300 for a cooler. maybe up to 100 but if i am going 300 might as well get a 12 volt fridge/freezer and you need 0 ice.

Great video Jack I feel the same way about coolers don't keep mirror in them but dang it my tea has to stay cold along with my water

My favorite cooler is any brand that keeps food ice/cold for a weekend camping, AND also has latches that keeps raccoons out! Last camping trip, I had a London broil, and chicken for fajitas get stolen by those little bandits. For practical camping purposes, the style of latches are important…

Ramble all you want, it was a great video. My igloo cooler is 6 years old, held ice all day for my son's catch of the day on the Nature Coast. It has a handle and wheels... perfect to lug around basically anywhere. We just used it at Casperian Beach so my kiddos can go shark teeth hunting... kept ice all day.

Thanks for the advice, bro!

Great advises, one thing you forget to mention bigger budget coolers have thin plastic hinges screwed into to lid and body that make it fall apart real quick. Small budget coolers last but the bigger size with screws in hinges do not ! Thanks

Thanks for the info. I don't don't have a favorite cooler, but I have a favorite beverage.

I took one of those Igloo playmates with some beers and ice to the Gator Nationals. Was there all day, came home, the next afternoon my beer was still cold. As for my Grady White, it's got a really nice built in cooler and my beer stays cold for days.

Igloo marine ultra coolers for me with homemade dividers. I run them length wise 2. And one smaller one front to back. They are completely sealed from each other. Drinks in the largest divider and my catch in the skinny divider and bait in the small cubicle. Basically 3 coolers in one. Been using this setup for about 3 years same cooler.

For Shallow flats fishing it's nice to be able to stand on the cooler.

I just recently picked up a 52 Qt Igloo overland. For price and features, it seemed like the best value. I couldn't stomach the YETI/RTIC PRICES. The Lifetime coolers would be my next choice if I wanted to upgrade.

Came here for the coolers stayed for the backyard setup. Like what you’ve done with the place

My orca only comes out on vacation. We did a 10 day trip in Georgia and still had ice on the way back. It's too heavy for the day to day. During the pandemic only local place was 8 bucks for 10 lbs. I did break it out a few extra times for that. My "daily drivers" are found on side of the road.

I have one like your red one I spray foamed the inside the lid and that cooler works better than our high end cooler.

Love me some natural light your spot on every time

I've got a 100 quart cooler that I use a lot specially during hunting season. I put a couple bags of ice in the bottom and I can fit two quartered deer in there and let them age in the cooler for a week and the ice is still mostly there. And that's in Texas where deer season means temps in the 90's most of the season. Now if you want yeti or arctic quality but made in America and cheaper look at lifetime branded coolers. Their plants are in Utah and Kentucky. I've got one of their fishing kayaks that's not supposed to be used in Rocky white water but has handled it and the abuse that comes with fishing those kind of waters for several years. Yeti and arctic are American owned but Chinese made so that means you are paying a premium for the name not the manufacturing that's why I try and get lifetime brand products from coolers to tables. They are proof that you can build a quality product in America by Americans and be more than competitive in price. Yeti and artic are charging for the name more than the product itself.

Life is too short to drink hot beer. :) I have used a Polar Bear 12 pack soft cooler every day for 5 years and it's still in perfect shape.

Personally I have a multitude of reasons why I bought a rotomolded cooler. First is that I like quality products and I am quite hard on my tools and such. Secondly my cooler lives in the side box of my work truck and on the railroad a black box gets very hot especially when your on rail all day. I needed something that could handle the extreme temps I was working with an buying ice everyday does add up. The Orca I bought keeps ice for 5-7 days in a black metal box(essentially an oven) on the railroad where rail temps are routinely 100+ during the summer. I have no regrets buying a rotomolded cooler but with caveat of knowing it's not for everyone. If you cant stomach the price and are conflicted about it then for the average person an Igloo or Coleman will work fine for day trips.

Thanks for the reality check. I've been going down the Cooler Rabbit Hole. It gets stupid real fast. This Sailor appreciates a reasonable Soldier.

As I slowly age, I have come to realize lugging around a hard roto molded cooler is an overrated experience especially if your ice retention needs are 1-2 days max. I am more into the soft coolers now.

first time seeing video loved it

Love your video.

After a day of researching coolers, this was the best vid by far. UNless you're ona trek in Sahara for 3 days....ice is cheap lol

great video! im looking for a small hard cooler just to hold 6 drinks....any advice??

Was just thinking I haven’t seen a Motley video in awhile, then, boom… hope y’all are doing well brother

Love the videos, were you drinking before you made the video ? lol

Waiting for a Yak-loo Cooler to come out!

Okay I need a cooler that WILL last 2.5-3 days without access to more ice. We are going to a music festival and once we park and set up we won’t be able to leave again. So what cooler should I get them?

Glad to know I'm not the only one with a half dozen or more coolers, lol. Sometimes I wonder, am I a hoarder? No, each one of these serve a different purpose and are a different size depending on the size of the other stuff in my truck and how much food I am bringing on my trip. And then a friend says, thats what a hoarder would say...

just got a cater gator. ive got the igloo bmx but really wish it had a drain.

Igloo all the way. For the price you can't beat it. I do have my on ice machine though so that's not a problem.

I got a Lifetime 28 cooler for my Busch Lattes

Which is better between the BMX and the Overland?

i guess i will hold off on an expensive one. The only time i wish to have one is night fishing in the summer for trout...the ice doesn't hold up in a cheap one

I got a yukon outfitters 30 can soft cooler, thing is excellent, was on sale 80 bucks.

I use coolers a lot. I just cant get rid of or replace my old igloo marine ultra cold 45. from west marine maybe 15 years ago. Its been to so many beaches in florida, on many boats inshore and offshore. Its flown off boats doing 55 running to shore from a storm. Its been down the rivers of the texas hill country. Its been camping up and down the appalachians. Its been on the banks of the everglades. I spent $25 to replace the two broken hinges and broken latch with recycled fire hose latches and hinge. I will never get rid of it.

Match your beer with your cooler... that is good LOL

Thank u

Don’t forget how damn heavy those yetis are!!! I had a roadie 20 and screw that carrying it around to the beach and stuff I sold it sticking with my 15 year old igloo marine cooler

Igloo BMX is the best bang for the buck

Thanks the truth hearts! Mississippi

For ole red how did you keep food dry? Looking for cheap day cooler but take drinks and sandwiches. Don’t want soggy bread

My cooler is alcohol fluid. Some days it identifies as Guiness, Some days it identies as Rum.

How about a video about your comparison of fishing rods/reels!

Here is the thing for me. Usually I need a cooler to keep beer/drinks cold for a day. Not a week. Not even a weekend in most cases. So why do I need a $300 ice chest for that?

Hell yeah! Buy a high dollar cooler and those bad boys grow legs and walk for sure. El cheapo coolers are loyal they don't run away

I dont see a lifetime cooler, and thats definitely a competitor for yeti when it comes to us middle class folk and lower lol. I ordered a lifetime 55 qt just last night from walmart. I saw a few videos saying how they're great and have oce retention up to 4 days or something. Which is good for the price, the size is also good for the price compared to rtic and yeti. I feel like as long as it is a rotomolded cooler, it should be good enough. Not as good as a yeti, but for the price, ita great. Anyone have opinions on lifetime rotomolded coolers?

did you got back the one brant stole from you a few years back im pretty sure it was a yeti

Lifetime cooler all the way. 1/3 the price of Yeti and trash bandit proof

Just the best cooler period!! THATS ALL!!

Playmate lid let’s to much air in and beer gets warm, I believe in old red coolers , half gallon milk containers Make great block ice 🧊 last awhile

We couldn’t have you not having a new ole red!!

Funny i was thinking if i should buy a Yeti so I've been watching videos and some say you should get Yeti ice lol which is an additional $20-$30 dollar. I think they are overated for the price

Yak's essentials in life. Beer, Cooler, Sand, Water, Family and Friends. what else would one need in life....

You don't need $300 coolers. Stop using cubed ice! Find a plastic container with a cover that fits in the bottom 25% of your cooler. Fill it - freeze it - drop it in. Plus ... you can use the water when it melts. Drinks on top of the container, trays of snacks above those. I use old Gal milk jugs for my larger cooler. (they equal 8#'s of ice each) (don't fill them all the way up) Great for fresh water at the end of the day to wash me & the deck down. Block ice will last 3 times longer than cubed. If you wrap bare block ice in newspaper to about 1/4" thick it will last even longer. If you can't freeze large ice .... find an "Ice Carver" in your area. They have large block ice scraps they'll sell or give away. My local Carver trades a garbage can full of ice for a 24 pack of beer. Enough for my 120 qt in the boat and 2 - 40 qt coolers to the brim. (Bring a small hatchet with you. Makes it easy to chop to fit more in your cooler)

HEY! Do you have a kayak?? : ) miss the kayak fishing.

What about a boat/jet ski purchase comparison video or camper.

All I want in a cooler is one that want spill all the water out, if it tips over in my van.

roto coolers are heavy too.

Like you, I have all brands and sizes. They all have their uses. My current favorite, which fits the widest variety of needs is my Engel 65 (company is based in Jupiter Florida). A touch heavy, but holds ice forever, fits perfectly on my boat, sturdy enough to jump on / stand on, non skid feet and……and the latch is a beer bottle opener! Boom! Perfect!

The one thing you didnt talk about is weight. Igloo with marine grade latches and hinges make the best all around coolers. A full 50 quart igloo cooler (fish and ice) is a one strong man carry cooler. Same size in Yeti type is a two strong man carry cooler. For the 15 or 20 qt size use either one but figure the yeti type to be a load. Use a beach cart. Then there are the ones with wheels…NO.

I spotted a yak fishing clip, OMG!!!!!!!!!!! I have a Thermik I inherited that works well. Otherwise its a cheap igloo with a diy foam filled lid.

I got myself a pelican cooler only because I like the brand.

Just get to it.

You should do a test and see how quick the yeti would get stolen

😂😂 this is the best review

The one thing you didn't touch on was weight. My grizzly or RTIC coolers are three times the weight of my cheap igloo that's the same volume. If I'm lugging something down to the beach, weight matters

Is that an Army Captain insignia on your merch?

just bought a 45 quart ozark with wheels at walmart for $65.

Ive always been a fan of the cheap coleman coolers. Old reliable. My dad has a vintahe green one from the 70's that still works great. Being a jeeper tho id recommend somethint with latches so you dont lose your beer. Yeti coolers are great but at that price youre really just showing off to your friends like "look at my $300 cooler ya peasants" all that to throw a 12 pack of Budweiser and a $2 bag of ice lol.

All Igloo coolers are made in USA . I think the yeti tundra is the only one from that manufacture that is . USA 🇺🇸 USA!

I have a Coolest cooler and the Coolest Vibe. Wish this company still made coolers

Lol funny story in Pensacola. My buddy and I were fishing we left the yeti to carry on the second trip to the truck. We'll some criminals stole it. We decided to play a nasty prank . We ran to Walmart and bought the high end yeti like cooler. Well we both dropped a deuce in the cooler. You know the kind from a night of beer and cookout food and crabs. We put in in the truck bed and hid watching . Took fifteen minutes. Then some scummy locals in a shitty truck drove up and grabbed it. It was thrown on the side of the road by the bridge when we left. Hope they spilled some on them .still laughing.

Lol I like it, take your bike to your buddy's house with a 6pk.....you know take a lunch with 4 or 5 beers lol....what happened to that 6pk? 😆 prob drank 1 or 2 on the bike getting there 😆

Can't go wrong with a lifetime

Eugene approves of coolers!

“ he gone ! “

I'm looking for a good Beach cooler, meaning 1 that can roll well on Sand but they don't seem to exist. Rovr has the best wheels, but they don't seem quite large enough FOR SAND (Unless the sand is FLAT), Igloo Trailmate has large wheels, actual separation between the wheels and the cooler (which you need when rolling on loose sand) but they're squared off and plastic. Those seem the only legit options for beach sand that I've found. I honestly don't understand how the majority of these coolers with wheels have almost ZERO separation between the wheels n the cooler. I guess that's ok on most ground surfaces, but sand? NOPE........NOPE!!

Big frig coolers for me

Bigger cooler more ice my old pos Coleman keeps ice for five days, yetis don't.

Cheap Igloos work the best for every day. Yetis are good coolers for multi day camping or boating but way to expensive for what you get.

Didnt someone on another channel steal your cooler? haha. Best cooler is a free one.

Just got my red lol

Igloo all the way. I could buy a Yeti, but if I turned my back on it for a minute and it walked off I would be too pissed of to enjoy my weekend, and I live in a neighborhood where they steal the paint off your car. If you're down to just ice and water at the end of the day, it's still keeping your beer cold and your dead fish are still dead. Go cheap, more money for beer! Great video!

Coleman marine is a dang good cooler

Looks like you getting a lot of grey in your beard there Yak 😁

Ice is gonna melt..no matter what you pay for a cooler.. Happy fishing always..

I just want a cheap cooler that can hold a 24 pack of cold cold beer..

You don’t have a orca cooler😢

Hey we appreciate the videos but the cooler y’all keep forgetting is PELICAN! And lifetime brand from Wally World…. They are far superior to most coolers….. MADE IN THE USA….. I’ve never seen a RTIC or yeti made in the states? The grey lifetime 28 qt is a great contender in this contest and the pelican 30 is flat amazing, it is guaranteed for LIFE!! if you prechill the cooler and use folding ice packs at the top of the cooler they keep ice for days and days in the Kansas heat . The latches on the pelican are extremely easy to open.

I heard you say you dont like paying for ice.... Just think of it like paying the electric bill for freezing the ice, I know you do that at home already. Im sure you have heard a comment like this before... anywho

You really stereotyped type of beer with cooler...... I just imagined someone opening a yeti to steal a beer and closing it right back because its full of Miller High Life. lol

That was beer Not Mirror

went with igloo today, because one is $65 and the other is $350... like, no ty...
