The BEST Kayak “milk crate” ever?!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- A little bit of randomness throughout the video. BUT, the kayak tackle/rod storage started out with your basic milk crate, then the Yak Attack Blackpak and things of the like. Is this the next step in the evolution of the kayak “milk crate”???

That is some “milk crate”! Thanks for keeping it real and sharing.
Straight up, if those shirts came in black and the bass and blue gill were white or gray, I’d be all over that. Good video, Greg 🤙🏻
Greg your the man dude... I am going to be making this box for my titan 10.5 as well. I really appreciate you going over this for us! THANKS!!!!
Anytime Taylor! It's a great addition and perfect fit for the 10.5. Let me know how yours comes out man!
Man you have come along ways from the early days. That box is amazing... Your buddy did a great job... Professional for sure.
Thanks Jae! He's the wizard for a reason! lol
That box is awesome! Is there a build video of it?
The Wizard is more like a god. Always impressed with his stuff.
he's the master DIY guy for kayak fishing!
@@GregBlanchardFishing does the Wizard have a youtube page or instagram?
Been watching your videos for a month or so now and I absolutely love the kayak fishing especially your frog fishing keep it up 👍🏻
Cool box! Appreciate you sharing your gear set up with your followers. Good stuff!
Love the sound track.... again lol. Anyday fishing is better than anyday day at work. Whether catching fish or not.
Out of my league Donny.
Can you say more about the lid on the box? The description parts list mentions custom top plate.
Hey, one of those shirts you shipped is mine! Can't wait!
Awsome man! Hope you like it!!
Loved the intro! Would love to see more of your daily life away from fishing too
Thanks man, definitely planning on more VLOG style videos!
Looks like possibly a Pelican 1620 is the base for that “crate” . Can you confirm the model number? I didn’t see that in the video description
I've got one and I love it
lojo.fishing what box is it?
Great video Greg! That’s why they call it fishing and not catching, you don’t always catch anything. I went out on my kayak last night for 4 hours and all I caught was a tiny bluegill. Thats a badass milkcrate setup you got as well!
Thanks Hunter!
I know this vids really old but I’m hitting your back catalogue to scratch the itch- just had a new baby so it’ll be a while until I hit the water again. Just an idea; I have the current tshirt designs you have and they’re beautiful; what about some of your favorite techniques done in that style- drop shot, jig, wacky, punch especially- just put it where the bait fish is….just a thought
Hey Greg, did you customize the top of the case to make it flat or did you buy it that way?
That tackle crate is awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Richard! Great addition to the kayak
Dude the green bass color on the new shirts is awesome!! And I will be making a tackle trunk once I get my new yak later this year!!
Thanks Cody! Yep, the tackle trunk is awesome!
A box of badassery!
I'm curious - do you not like to Flip in the delta? Deadly out there. Dee Thomas made it famous... He caught a lot of really big bass.. way back in the brush and soup using it.
That is a GREAT box, no doubt - but it’s $297.00. I’m making rod holders out of PVC & attaching them to two milk crates I was given - because my budget won’t support that much cash for AN EMPTY (very nice) box. Can’t bring myself to do it.
You did give me an idea for the box - I might check Harbor Freight for a more affordable similar case. Great video - thank you.
Wow that box is really cool.
Great share Greg, next year will be my upgrade to my crate. This is an awesome idea. I could see this at ICAST next year too :)
Thanks Jim! Good stuff at Clear Lake!!!
Nice crate .
Could you post a link to the actual box for us fellow titan owners? Or at least the measurements. Thanks
Thanks for sharing looks like a great set up... curious now that it's been nearly a year do you still use this box set up or have you changed it up. How's it holding up for you?
Design is clean!
Thanks for the video. Great as usual Greg
Greg, know this vid is older. But do you have that shirt in a white hoodie?
Hi Greg! What is the box? I'm interested in buying one, leave a link. Thank you!!!
It’s called a Case Cruzer. www.casecruzer.com/shipping-carrying-cases/index.html
Being real is the deal, not ever outing is successful when it comes to bass fishing some days are a grind.. keep it up bro love the vids!👊
Greg, your style and vids are awesome but you didn’t say in the product description where to find the box. Thank you and keep your lines tight!!
I went fishing today and caught all dinks. Some days it happens! Love the kayak crate. I cart top my kayak empty and getting everything hooked up takes a lot of time. Very slick system.
Great box! Love all the mods. Really clean and super efficient. I have a Titan 10.5 too. Just wondering how tight the fit is for the box. I'm currently using a rectangular milk crate and I believe it's 19" and it's a pretty tight fit. Also wondering if the link you have for the Boonedox landing gear on Amazon is for the Native Titan. I ordered from Austin Kayak but they are on back order and if I can get them from Amazon I'd rather do that. Thx
Super nice case. I want one now. The Case Cruzer appears to be a knock-off of the SKB case line and more affordable. Nice. That way I wont feel so bad for cutting it up. :)
What’s the info on the box?
What covers do you use for your lures while your traveling over never seen anyone else cover them like that
Just started watching your channel. have you done a video of the process of you pulling up to launch and what you have to do before you actually start fishing? Unloading kayak, loading all your gear etc...?
Great stuff Greg
Awesome video that’s a nice crate I will be checking it out for sure I’m still pretty new to kayak fishing but always looking for anything to make it easier or better
Clean, precise functions, and conceptually well thought-out. Thanks for the ideas you have given me. (The old Black Milk Crate has gotta go, after viewing this!) Haha!
Thanks again, Greg.
You got it man! Glad it was helpful!
Great video as always buddy. So would this fit in a Hobie PA 12 been looking for a bigger box for a while now
What’s your GoPro set up look like for the yak? Is it custom made for the Scotty mount?
I was there at Lake Camanche on Sunday! It was tough for me. Only caught 1 fish on a jig. The lake was good until the party boats and jets skiers started coming out.
tough lake to fish in the summer for sure, ill be back in the fall!
@@GregBlanchardFishing yup that's my plan too. Fall and winter should be good especially when the spots comes out.
Great box! Are u willing to sell it lol.. I been watching your video and u inspired me to start kayak fishing.. Thank you for helping me Learn different techniques and can’t wait to try them out this year
Need to post a video of how to hook up all of the wires and fuse box...
How do you clamp that sucker in the boat?!? Awesome stuff regardless, makes me want to take on a new project!
Where can I buy this box with the wheels?
Thanks
Thanks for the follow up video on the tackle truck Greg. Appreciate you. Keep on posting this great content!!
Sure thing, Troy! Thanks for watching!
Wow. That tackle trunk is pretty nice. I wouldn't mind having a scaled down version of that! Have you had the Space Dust IPA from Elysian? Great beer!!
Having one right now! I'm an IPA fanatic and space dust is in my top 5!
Yeah IPAs are SO good. They were my fave until I tried bourbon barrel aged stouts. But IPA is still the summer time go-to beer. My top 5 IPAs (not in any order) Pliny The Elder, Pliny The Younger, Heady Topper, Dinner, Hop Slam. UGH there are so many great craft brewers out there now! It's hard to choose.
Excellent production, but not as permium as your artwork. You seem like a remarkable kind of guy with lots going on and an orderly approach to everything you do. I'm glad Rudd encouraged us to check out your channel.
damnnit greg.. do you need a tent? Camping gear? lol.. Call me.. I got you - my garage is a freaking REI!
You're my go to guy when I need camping gear from now on, Matt! lol
Did you mean 20 amp hour battery and not 20 volt for your fish finder? Could you link the battery you got?
Wow. Regular is 3.77?! Here in Wisconsin, that’s the price for premium. But love the shirts, I’m planning to get one myself.
Hope you like it man!
Nice box! Where can I find the Wizard? I need one of this?
6:00 am in Minnesota
Do you think you will upgrade your fish finder at some point? Maybe something with side scan?
Mine just cracked (still works) but will be upgrading for 2019 for sure. Not sure on SS yet but that'd be pretty sweet for winter fishing in these deep reservoirs here in Cali
Next time man, the first time I went out In my 14 footer in the winter 32 degrees!!! But we caught some good fish
I think it is made from a Pelican case 1620.
Where did you source the hinges and latches
Did you assemble this yourself from the KR Series Carrying Case? Great Job!
Yep, my buddy did!
Greg how does it hold up if salt water was to get on the ports.
And how much would it cost to make a box like that
Still gotta test that out. Salt trips are hopefully in store for this falll. 400.00 roughly without the battery
The box linked in the description has a much thicker lid than the one in the video. Did you make a whole new lid out of the 1/4” starboard?
you got it man
I dont see the link? Any help please.
Add a yak power lights
Is the guy who built your "Milk Crate" in RUclips? If so, whats his name.
6:20 The milk crate, tackle trunk portion of the video.
Great rundown, man. Love this box. One question that I have not seen you address, why did you replace the case lid?
Marvin Forte the lid of the case stock had a 2” rise on it in order to have the lid open fully with rod holders mounted to the back you either have to space the rod holders back at least 2” further or flat top the lid I chose to flattop the lid. Because the box is rather large it would be a pretty good reach to grab your rods if you space them out further back. Hope this answers your question. Tight lines
Makes perfect sense. Thanks for the feedback!
Just what the wizard said! Thanks for watching, Marvin!
@@wizardwerx917 what size is this box? TIA!!!!
Hey Greg, thanks for the tackle box tour! I have a couple questions about it. I’m thinking about doing something similar for my 13.5.
1. Did you place board over the lid and screw in, if so is there a reason?
2. Are the tackle boxes 3700?
3. Did The wizard drill through box to mount anything? Is it watertight?
I really like the idea and you’re right, the black pack is nice but just not dimensionally big enough!!
Hey. I see ur list. But can u put the amazon links to each product? Thanks. I hope you get this
Hey Brock, will be doing an updated boat tour in the next week or two and I'll put all links in there
@@GregBlanchardFishing thanks. I'm gonna build one for the titan 12 I got. I appreciate the help
Where can one find the box its self?
maverick710 on PS4 i looked around. Its a pelican case.
Case cruzer box.. Look on thier site
Ryan Cagle hard to see on the Cruzer site which one of them they modified for this box that Greg has though.
KR2317-14 - KR Series Carrying Case
Case cruiser website
Anyone know what size this box is??
Greg i love you and hate you for showing me the box. Trying to put it together now. Do you have a list of the cables he used to connect the battery to the fish finder or the cords for for fuses etc? If not its okay i will try to go a local hardware store. The easy part is spending the money. They hard part is putting it all together haha
Haha, sorry man! The box in the end is worth it though! The cables had to be spliced and I know he used the following : Yak-Power YP-PMC48S Power Port 12v Outlet
its on amazon
@@GregBlanchardFishing thanks man appreciate the reply. Dont forget to pick up that buzzbait with a black horny toad instead of the skirt as we get further into the summer. I think its going to help you catch a lot of bass in tournamets before the sun comes up.
Where can I find different pedals for my propel drive??
link should be in the description for better pedals
Video starts @6:56 …..
But where did you get that hoodie?!
it's my own merch and linked in the description. out of stock right now but new inventories this May!
Do you never put a link on where the box came from all you did is put box and a description he say what kind what brand nothing
One thing I can't stand about my black pack is that it doesn't fit 3700 size plano boxes. I had to buy all small boxes.
For sure, always wish they came out with a bigger size blackpak but no need for that now!
Thanks, I was curious from the Headwaters kayak walk through video about your crate.
Any shirts in the future with snook,redfish
Ah, probably not unless I start fishing the salt more but ya never know
Looks like its a pelican case. Not sure the model.
I'm trying to find out too. He mentions casecruzer and tackle trunk several times but I went to their site and couldn't find it. And others are saying a pelican box but haven't checked.
He posted links in the description
KR2317-14 - KR Series Carrying Case
Case cruiser website
do you live in NY or In Cali
Yo that box is rediculous! Technology nowadays.
For real man!
That looks very heavy
I want a shirt
Do you think I can pay the person who made that to make it for me
Unfortunately he's stopped taking orders due to the overwhelming demand
Greg Blanchard it’s all right great vids btw as always
