An un-biased review on the Eureka " NoBugZone" 3 In 1 Screen Tent. I put this tent through sun, wind, rain and lots of bugs to see how it holds up in the Canadian wilderness.

Tacoma Stuck In Deep Snow - Recovery Mission
Просмотров 296Год назад
A 1 night camping trip turns into a recovery mission when the weather drastically warms up the next morning, causing the snow pack to melt and become impossible to drive through. I learned several valuable lessons about winter 4x4ing on this trip. Also, big thank you to Luke (owner of the custom rig) and Kevin (ride along) for getting us out of there.

Took the boat out on a beautiful calm day to try out my new downrigger and fish finder. Alot of the lake was covered in a thin layer of ice that seemed sketchy to go through with an inflatable boat.

Stryker LX380 On Okanagan Lake
Просмотров 40 тыс.Год назад
First trial run out on the big lake with my brand new Stryker LX380. Stay tuned for more on this boat, I will be upgrading the motor in the near future.
Thank you!
Interesting video, although in Australia Yamaha is selling a f15 and an f20 that have different displacements.
I love fishing these small mountain lakes. Nice bike man.
@@BCfishingdreams Yea the tiny hard to access lakes are my favorite forsure and thanks, not bad for an 02 yammy
It doesn’t seem like the side walls meet the ground with any over lap. It would be bug central. 😮
@@dannys721 They can meet the ground if you dont guy out the bottom. It keeps the mesquitos out and is great for wind and rain but it certainly isn't a "no bug zone".
What lake is that?
I cant be the guy that blows up a tiny mountain lake online.
I have the 380 Pro Hunter with a 20hp Mercury, it goes 38km/h top speed. Getting a 7 pitch propeller to replace the 9 pitch propeller. Should get a top speed of 42kmph
Nice setup! I have recently purchased the airfloor and am eager to see the top speed with that in.
Next fishing video?
Very soon
You have the beginning's of a nice rig. You will consider more hp soon and a good fish finder. Good luck!!
Thanks, I have since upgraded.
0:54 wow. I wouldnt even fish, I'd just sit there on my portable camping chair and drink scotch
Didn't fish for long thats forsure. Such a beautiful lake but couldn't figure the fish out lol
@@BCMountainLife The fish giving you hints to just enjoy the nature
Boat's flying compared to the 6 HP one. Have you ever had the canopy caught wind riding like that?
Funny you ask... one of the strap buckles broke recently on a super windy day 😂 but never any issues going full speed on a calm day.
What are those dinghy wheels?
They are launching wheels. I purchased them from stryker and mounted myself. I have since purchased the dually wheels which are much better if you will be pulling a heavy setup onto the beach often.
@@BCMountainLife Ah I see. I was curious about the brand. I got a pair of Quicklok wheels on mine, though its a much heavier boat. About 700 lbs with the engine. Can still deadlift the nose up, though I would never (or could never) beach it on a shore like that haha. I use a block & tackle to pull it on the beach. Just island hopping. Very handy thing those wheels for a solo boater.
BUYER BEWARE! This tent frame's sliding mechanism is defective from the factory and broke off in my hands upon initial set up. RBM'S answer for a fix was to send me a replacement part that didn't fit. If I can save one person from the nightmare that I went through, this comment is worth it. DO NOT PURCHASE!
That sounds some like some shitty luck man... with any product there is bound to be defects occasionally. Mine is still going strong, owned it for around 4 years I think.. Customer service from Bereg Canada has always been top notch aswell.
thanks for this authentic video! very valuable for someone considering a stryker boat
Thats Awesome, an LX ice breaker! I just got an LX 420 - How has yours held up? Any water or air leaks?
Its held up great so far. No air leaks or water leaks. Had it out about 20 times. Stored inside and a coating of sunscreen every winter.
Longer net needed!! Awesome catch my friend
Yes indeed
How much is the tent
Love the mount on the bench. you should cut the bolts and use acorn nuts they are rounded at the end. Great video
Thanks! Yes forsure, I will be cutting and rounding off those bolts
Me ha gustado el video. Toma mi LIKE. Un saludo
I have never seen Okanagan lake so devoid of other boats, ever in recent times. In my by gone days in the 50's and 60's you rarely saw another boat even near Kelowna., Nice to be up past Vernon for some peace and quiet.
Great video, I was just looking at getting one of these screen tents. I've had the problem you faced of not having poles marked properly in the past, once I figured it out I just put a wrap of colored phase tape (electrical tape) around where the markings were missing. Camping/fishing season is coming, gotta get ready.
Thank you for your time and your good review!
Thanks, hope you found it helpful
good demo
Thank you
Just bought one of these exact same as yours. I have a 9.9 yammy how do you think the two will pair with each other?
I ended up buying a 15hp yamaha for the boat. A 9.9 should be perfect for fishing (trolling) and cruising with 1-2 people.
@@BCMountainLife nice I can’t wait to try er out this spring
Hi from South Africa absolutely an awesome little boat looking for one myself I'm a bass fisherman.
Hello, inflatable is a great option for the stability when standing up bass fishing.
Sure looked delicious ,peaceful
Yes, I very nice spot for some peace and quiet.
Want to sell your UP-2? 😬
No I use it often. I do wish I bought the UP-5 though.
@@BCMountainLife the up-5 is a beast and weighs a ton more. Do you think 1 person can manage the opening the up-5? That is a concern of mine as I contemplate between the up-2 and up-5 🤔. I would only use it for 2-3 people max
@@Bryan24k8 I use for 1-2 adults or 1 adult and 2 kids and wish I had more space. Cots and a table are necessary and they take up alot of room. I'm an average sized guy, physically fit, and popping up the UP 2 is easy. I have full confidence that I could pop up the UP 5 by myself. If you are a very small person and lacking in physical strength it may be an issue though.
Congrats on your new toy.
Thankyou.

Where is this? Some sort of private mountain outside of Van?
Public camp site, South Okanagan Mountains.
Hey dude! Really good job on the vid.
Nice catch!
Thank you Sir
Nice video, there are monster rainbows in okanagan. Caught a 11 pounder in it before. What model boat where you using? I dig it
Thanks! The boat is a Stryker LX 380.
Congrats on your first grayling. They can be good fighters, and beautiful.
Thank you sir! Good meeting you the other day.
Nice! What boat is that you are using? Neat setup
Hey thanks, The boat is a Stryker LX 380 with a Yamaha F15.
Nice job dude! I remember eating grayling for lunch when i'd visit my grandpa and grandma in the summer. They've gotta be the modt beautiful freshwater fish.
Nice, yea they are beautiful. They seem much easier to catch then trout and I would say better tasting aswell.
First
I had been looking for a video for a long time where you can see an inflatable boat like yours that has a gasoline engine and trolling at the back. Good video, I congratulate you, I'm going to buy some accessories that you show in your video. Greetings from cancun
Thank you very much it's great to hear that your finding some value in my content. I look forward to doing more on this fishing set up.
You got some balls taking those paddles off bud. 😮
Very observant of you but I didn't take them off, I just forgot to install them initially. Either way, I was running 2 motors and wasn't far from shore so really not that risky. If thats scary to you, you should see how I earn a living haha..Thanks for watching :)
Cool😮
P.S. Those wood staircases down the side of the cliffs are pretty crazy! Must have taken a while to engineer those.
Yea, expensive to build I'm sure. Some are metal and like elevators. $$$$$
Looks like a nice setup. The 6 horse, does better than I thought too.
Yes the little merc is perfect for smaller power restricted lakes, I have since up graded to a 15hp for big lakes.
Nice one brutha!
Thanks Bro, looking forward to doing a collab with ya soon.
Thinking of getting the Lx 420 I have 2015 9.9 Yamaha you think it will be big enough for the boat?
If your only using it for fishing it would be ok but I doubt it would get on plane with more then just yourself in the boat. I would say thats underpowered for a boat that big.
@@BCMountainLife found a lx380 only one yr old I think I’m just going to go for it looks like a good size and guy only wants 3 grand
@@jdh8835 Sounds like a good set up. The 9.9 should troll the 380 nicely and will allow you on smaller lakes too. Probably plane 2 people?
@@BCMountainLife Yeaa mostly on the Shuswap but also thinking I can upgrade to a 20-25 hp efi in the future then it would rip pretty good I think
The nostalgia I get from your guys' videos is awesome, I miss trolling on the south okanagan lakes. It really is one of the best trout fisheries anywhere.
To hear that my videos stir up positive emotions motivates me to keep making them. Thanks man. Youve been watching rawdog since the beginning I know Craig and I both really appreciate it. Okanagan is a tough lake to fish especially if you don't know it well but there are deffenetly huge 20lb+ rainbows lurking in there.
@@BCMountainLife For sure man, I was fishing the same lakes as you guys around that time, Garnet, Yellow, Skaha etc; even ran into Craig once or twice. Would have been nice to meet up and go fishing but I moved to Pennsylvania for now. Definitely miss the lakes back home. Keep the videos coming. 👍🎣
Holy crap! What a beauty! Nice footage with the new GoPro too. Looks great.
Thanks I'm really happy with the new camera. My hero 7 was super glitchy out of the box and the new modes and resolution on this one are great.
Nice work Garth, it's a sweet feeling when you latch into one like that.🍻🤙😎
Thanks, it certainly is!
Siiiiick dude. Thats a rainbow!
Awesome video and congrats on a beauty rainbow! One little tip, if youre trolling a heavy ball on one side and you have to fight to keep the boat going straight, dragging a small bucket that's tied to the other side helps a lot. I do that when I troll for salmon out of my inflatable.
Hey thanks for the tip yea It really was a struggle keeping the boat straight maybe I will try that.
You are a physio wearing waders on a boat duh what happens if u go over ? Oh yeah they fill with water in seconds
Yes I am aware of the hazards of falling off a boat with waders on. Launching an inflatable boat from a rocky beach in the winter time is why I am wearing waders. This is winter boating in Canada, if I didnt have to get into the water to launch and land the boat, I wouldnt be wearing waders. I thought that was pretty obvious.
I own the stryker 380 LX and bought mine in 2016 when stryker was fairly a new company. I love mine and my next one will be the pro
How has your boat faired? Any patches required? I would like the pro but the weight would be too much for me to manage by myself.
@@BCMountainLife The boat is in great shape. I made a few amateur errors and had to get it professionally patched in a few spots, but again that was my fault. I have the wooden transom before they revamped the boat with the aluminum transom, no leaks so far on the wooden one though. As for the rpo, I just received it. I purchased the same size as my 380 lx 12'5 feet. so now I have the STRYKER PRO 380 (12’ 5”) INFLATABLE BOAT. It has so many upgrades and lots of bottom protection. I have a electric start honda motor 20 hp i saved up for.
