I just found your channel. Love it. I've been guiding for 55 years. Your boat and trailer hacks are great. The foam around the wires and cables to reduce noise is genius. I can't stand irritating noises. The lights on top of the PVC on trailer was another. Thanks
Excellent video. My son who is 15 just purchased a used 17’ with a 35hp Evenrude. We are looking for ideas for storage and to get the most out of the space that we have. Thank you.
You rock young man. I'm building a 14 foot 55' Alumacraft ' V bottom into a fishing machine. Gonna wrap my motor lines, get some of those buoy fasteners, and mount a yardstick on my port rod locker. FIsh on!
Some good tips, and additional one for the phone: My android has a setting where you can voice command it to take the picture using a few different commands. That way you don't have to set the timer...I just open the camera and say"shoot" and its done.
Good ones....definitely going to use some of these. Especially the bumper hangers. I got one for you...I run a stereo in my boat that has a small remote, go under or inside (or anywhere) of your dash and glue a magnetic on the opposite side of where you would like your remote to hang and then glue a thin piece of sheet metal to the back of the remote, keeps it from bouncing or sliding around and getting lost. Also glued a magnet under my motor cover (I have a 5.7L inboard) to hold it in place so I can control the stereo from the back when we are swimming and hanging around the swim platform. And yes I fish out of my 95 Sea Ray...I turned the walk thru bow into a casting deck with a swivel bass fishing seat and remote control trolling motor.
Great video. Good ideas. Just bought an Alumacraft. Plan on copying a few of your mods especially the gorilla glue. I always have a hard time drilling permanent holes in a perfectly good boat. I especially like the tool holder with little holes for lures!!. I would have bet a million dollars your grand finale would have been drum roll American Flag lol
hacks are creative, inventive and always fun to watch. I have a plastic cup holder/tool holder that I clamp on the boat with those spring loaded wood worker clothes pin type clamps. very secure and I can quickly put it where ever I want.
just a side mote for #8 I believe it was. The insulation he uses is typically found by water heaters or copper pipe in hardware stores or HD or Lowes respectively. It's used for copper water line insulation and mostly found in 1/2" and 3/4" inside diameter (possibly 1" as well). Also I would recommend getting UV rated zip tips to extend the life before the plastic becomes brittle and comes apart.
Absolutely correct. I would like to add on that stainless steel wire isn't but a few extra dollars. Or chain link fencing ties. Wrap whatever thin wire you got mate the ends together and use your drill or an (L) shaped Allen key to spin them together. This would last a lifetime longer than any zip strip. And the same wire would pull the foam for a seemless segmented look. All you would see is foam and indents. I would be extra careful not to over tighten tho as you could chop the foam in half or even rip it. Be safe everyone and happy fishin!!! From Ohio
Hey trout whisper, thanks for the tips. Great to see you enjoying your flyrod! This is not a criticism, but you can really add to your fly casting enjoyment by watching some instructional fly casting videos. You could cast 3 x's farther. And your cast would not "weakly die". You would enjoy it so much more! And you could cast into the wind. 1. Start your back cast with the rod tip, just in the water. 2. Accelerate from 0 to a fast hard stop stright up at 12:00. Try to stop at 12, but really you will stop a little past, or so 3. The (key) is the hard stop "with out bending" your wrist...!! This stop is where the true power comes from! Remember, don't bend your wrist until after the stop! 4. Pause, let the line straighten out on your back cast. 5. Now start your forward cast (same as the backcast) accelerate to a hard forward stop (high stop) at about 3:00 position. The hard stop causes the weight of the line to load the rod and spring/shoot the line forward. 6. Not critical, but your bending the wrist is killing the power of your cast. Bending your wrist eliminates the hard stops that are "essential" for a loading/launching your cast. Just to give you an understanding....with proper technique, you can cast the entire fly line. Admittedly this takes Knowledgeable practice, takes awhile. 7. Your best bet is to go to a fly shop, and sign up for some lessons!! The technique is both simple, suttle and absolutely "not" obvious and discernable by merely watching a good caster. 8. With proper flycasting skill.....fly fishing is truly magical. And surface fishing is so pleasurable and rewarding. With a flyrod, you can have fun, even with little fish. So now let me steal 3 minutes of your life...watch the RUclips video "in search of the perfect loop" one of the worlds smoothest, tight, pointed loop casters you will ever see! After you watch this video, you will understand.... Your friend just jim
im far from a great caster but i find pulling on the line makes my cast go alot further, seems to help load the rod alot. Maybe its called a double haul?
Like the bumper brackets! That's handier than the tie cleat. Tool organizer go to the $1 Store to get a cutting board to chop up. #8 is a great idea, going on mine! #10....no
Hey I have a small boat and I can’t afford a lift what can I do to not have barnacles on it please let me know guys I love it and would hate to sell my boat because of that.
Your "bumper" is called a fender. One tip for you: Take that PVC rod holder tube out, heat the end with a torch or heat gun and shove a wine bottle into it so the end "bells" out a little. That will save your line guides.
hey brotha, whereabouts you from, i’m down in south berwick and i recently got back into fishing and could definitely use some of your tutelage. i’m woefully lacking in fishin buddies.
i need that sticker because, as of now at 45years old i am yet to catch my first fish i shit you not, ive never caught a fish going kayak fishing in a few weeks when my kayak arrives in australia
Where do you live mate? I'm only 25 and caught hundreds of fish. Theres a few places I could suggest to you where you dont get a chance to reel in without having a fish on.
All of your tips are great except for the covering of your electric and fuel lines. Very bad idea. Most boaters don't know how to or just don't do a safety check on their boat. If your fuel line starts leaking and you have it covered it will create a very bad situation. Same for covering up your battery to motor wiring. Covering your control cables is a good idea for that area but please don't cover your fuel lines for any reason.
I see your from the rangeley region. I'm guessing you shot this video on mooselookmeguntic lake or rangeley lake. nice boat but you don't look old enough to be a trout whisper. a true trout whisper speaks to all the trout not just the ones in the lakes. A true true whisper knows where to catch the big trout in the streams and the small brooks where nobody else would thing to go or dare to take a boat. you need to remember to be called a ture trout whisper you need first to catch big fish like eleven pound rainbow trout. (yes I know places where I can catch them like that and bigger all day long. and no not at a fish hatchery either.)

good stuff man. Like the mods. Esp the tool holder.
Heck yeah let's go i Just bought a 16ft boat and plann on making the mods although not everything is the same 😂😂
Like the tips for phone and cup holder. I'm going to 'borrow' them.😁 those bumpers can also be used for floating devices
angela sheppard they call them fenders!

I do a lot of salt water so I put my bumpers in two different heights I have those bumper brackets they're awesome I got them on all four sides
I like the idea of the double sided garilla tape
Great video. Good ideas. Just bought an Alumacraft. Plan on copying a few of your mods especially the gorilla glue. I always have a hard time drilling permanent holes in a perfectly good boat.

Ive done five of those mods to my boat also.i like the one with wrapping the steering cable with pipe insulation
Cup holders for......"coffee"
Dude I’ve watched a couple videos and also have a RUclips channel but I LOVE the tips and mods I will use these! Thank you so much
Would like to see what you did with you transom tranducer mount you talked about with the cutting board. Great video thanks for sharing it. 👍
Thanks for the video, nice ideas.
I need a new windscreen for my boat, do you know what you have on yours?
I built side bunk guides, went up the side little further so I could see them when in water. I live in Washington State NW.
I like the cutting board tool holder!
Great tips. I have an old 20 HP outboard. If I put 8 of the stickers on my boat it will give me the power of a new 100 HP motor! Cool 😎
Nice video. Thanks for the ideas. I will be using a few on my 1976 MirroCraft rebuild. 👍
Thanks for taking the time to do this. Much appreciated.
Any thoughts or tips on how you would rig a tracker Magna 19 bow rider if you had a fresh slate?

Awesome information, thank you for sharing!
Great ideas Thanks.
Really good ideas. Great video…

What’s the door material in your boat??
Damn you got me😂 I was definitely agreeing with the most important mod. But I thought you were talking about the flag😂
That sticker adds 15 more hp
You are brilliant! Thank you!
Dude I gotta know what sunglasses those are please!
They're Costa's

Hey I have a small boat and I can’t afford a lift what can I do to not have barnacles on it please let me know guys I love it and would hate to sell my boat because of that.
You could buy a used trailer and keep it on the trailer. I have never left my boats in the water. Ymmv
Thanks for this
Everett lures
GOOD VID. some great mods
What do u call the mount for the retractable rod
Did you find the mount?
Hey man what kind of boat is that ?
Polarkraft
How to turn medium size zfishing boat in drivable on road
Huh?
I bet if you’ve had one season on the water you now have folding junk holders I’ve had two or three of them on my boat and they just do not hold up
Good tips
How much did cost to wrap your boat
Few hundred bucks. Maybe $400.. got a quote from a wrap place and it was over $1000
Your "bumper" is called a fender. One tip for you: Take that PVC rod holder tube out, heat the end with a torch or heat gun and shove a wine bottle into it so the end "bells" out a little. That will save your line guides.
Good stuff
Does the sticker make your significant other ok with you fishing all weekend without her?
Great video man.lots of great ideas 🤟
hey brotha, whereabouts you from, i’m down in south berwick and i recently got back into fishing and could definitely use some of your tutelage. i’m woefully lacking in fishin buddies.
I've been studying constructing boats and discovered a fantastic resource at Denelle boat builder (check it out on google)
What boat is this exactly
Polarcraft SC165 I believe
Comin to the county?
did not see anything about the Flags flying in the back!
i need that sticker because, as of now at 45years old i am yet to catch my first fish i shit you not, ive never caught a fish going kayak fishing in a few weeks when my kayak arrives in australia
Enrage i feel sad you haven’t experienced the tug of a fish yet in your life. Hopefully you’ll catch a monster fish soon!
Where do you live mate? I'm only 25 and caught hundreds of fish. Theres a few places I could suggest to you where you dont get a chance to reel in without having a fish on.
Nice 👍
FYI...That is a meter stick not a yard stick.
Unfortunately, not. A meter is about 39 inches. However you can purchase metal rulers of any length. that is a 4' or 48" ruler.

By the way -They are not called Bumbers. They are called fenders - Cars have Bumbers and Boats you Fend off so they are called Fenders

He literally told you why
Oh my. He sure doesn’t get it.
@@fishhuntadventure oh I get it.
@@Dean403 I was literally making a joke
👍🏼
GOOD HACKS MISS FISHING WIFE SAID SHE LIKE TO START GOING AGAIN
Are you serious that's how i spell my name bet im finding that for my boat i was honest asleep when you showed the sticker now im wide awake
I wish i can afford a boat! Haha
You can. You just need to put in the extra time and work.
@@fishhuntadventure my nigga
Personally I put my net holder against the counsel
‘You bring your lawyer fishing?!
@@fishhuntadventure yes one is needed to sort through all tje regulations these dayd
Cup holder doubles as a spare key holder.
Haha! Yeah I don’t even know what that key goes to honestly.
you got a dislike for number 10 lol
Don’t knock it till ya try it. All I’m saying.
Boring ass video jk dope mods thanks ill be using a few of these
A little over 3 ft its uhh 48 in😂😂😂😂 u mean like.... 4ft
Flag on a baby boat. lol
That is a meter stick, not a ruler
Actually we’re both wrong. Lol it’s 4ft long
@@mainetroutwhisperer Ok thanks
It’s not 3 feet it’s 48 inches 😭😭😭 so 4 ft
I would just use a texter pen and mark out my ruler intervals... No drilling involved
