Great video. Just bought the same box and was unsure how to run the wires.

Good beater knife !

glad to see my fellow man getting out there and enjoying the outdoors. i have a 19ft triton bass boat but my buddy has this exact boat. We are fortunate to have access to a lot of private ponds we fish out of his boat. When he first got it i thought it was a silly playschool boat but man have we fished the heck out of that little boat. im a hook setter and mostly stand when i fish, ive caught thousands of bass in that little boat and it does great. we have never flipped it, knock on wood. take care of yourself partner, best of luck

Thanks, just the info I was looking for as I was close to buying this reel!

Love it brother keep on dropping that line

what is the chart taped on the back of the box?

You are amazing... if I may ask, how old is the old man outdoors? I do have an inflatable which I customized somewhat - it fits in the back of my little SUV.

I prefer white over clear as you can see it is all around. With clear you not always see if sealed fully.

I was looking at one of these today. I’m interested in the medium action version in the 6-15 lb line range. I lucked up on an awesome deal for a Pflueger President size 35, and I hope to make this a bassassin combo

Would love an update on the pmw

Thank you, John! I'm building out a used Bantam 2x, looking forward to seeing more of your mini build videos! Subscribed.😁🤝

John, I have a inflatable boat called a Zonker. 7' long, twin pontoons and I drive it with a 45lb thrust Minn Kota. I didn't see your links for sources of the components. Our motor has a max amp draw of 42 amps but I'd figure 50amps. Several PWM on Amazon but I can't seem to find the box. Also, have you ever used a 12v fan set up to dispell the heat? Our controller box will sit inside a canvas bag 12"w X 12" H X 30" long. Any comment would be appreciated. Thanks

Also got this exact same combo at Ollie’s for 30 fyi

Honestly one of the best reviews I’ve seen recently great job man

“I like the wander of fishing.” Amen brother.

I enjoy your videos. Pan fishing is my favorite also. Thank you keep it up.

Thanks for the tips

I`ve caught more bass on ultra lite gear than when I actually go out and try to straight up bass fish.....lol😂

Fishing is like quiet time. Always brings rest to my soul. You’re a fascinating guy. Great talk. Someone needs to get you on a podcast episode.

I agree 100%! Give me an ultra light or light action rod, a good spinning reel loaded with 2 or 4 lb test and I'm ready. Box of crickets or meal worms is all you need. My tackle box has an assortment of cricket hooks, corks, some Rooster Tails, Panther Martins and a bunch of Rebel u/l crank baits and jerk baits. That makes for a great day! Like Henry David Thoreau said, "Many men go fishing all their lives without knowing it is not the fish they are after." I too am a recovering bass angler. Thank you for the video.

Yep time in God's great outdoors is what it's about. I see so much wildlife activity when I just slow down and relax like your doing. And if we catch a fish its is a bonus 😊 Great video John!

Good video sir! Always a joy to watch.

Good perspective! I agree, panfishing is hard to beat

Very well said Mr. John! I think folks miss a whole lots of fun when they limit themselves to pursuing only the prestigious prize whether it be a certain species of fish or animal. I love to catch a good bass or a large grouper or bag a nice 10 pointer but I’m not going to give up pan fishing or small game hunting because of the fun I would miss out on! Thanks for the video!

Thank you. Very good use of your utility trailer.

you will not have any fish to catch at all people need to slow down only because you can catch more fish doesn’t mean to say you have to take them all home you can catch a release. I do it all the time please people happy and safe Fishing love you all 🤙🏻

Hey John, thanks for taking the time to show us your trailer mods. I caught this one a little late, been to busy fishing!

If the only way a person can catch fish is by using a live scope their not much of a fisherman, their a video expert. There are times I'll turn on my sonar unit and only use it for the GPS if I'm on a new lake and never see the other screens....

Lews rods are terrible there reels ain’t too good either there nowhere near ugly stick I don’t care if my shoulder went completely out I’d still go with ugly stick and how is it unbalanced I don’t u destined how the fishing rod is unbalanced specially that small of a rod

Tacklebox? Wenger...got the tools I might need. Boat? Something big enough to cut an anchor rope in an emergency.

Have you tried the new crappie magnet eye hole jig they work amazingly at keeping the nibble while still being effective

Hey my friend , great video . good pictures and strait to the information,( and no loud ass screaming music) . I see you're a Texas boy as am I. Mind if I ask what lake your fishing? I also bought a 10E back in 2018 and have made so many improvements but have kept the original look for the most part. Hope to share all my hacks one day. Thanks . Good Job! Oh by the way, I'm 71 yrs old and this is my wife's acc. ( ie lindy 707 ), I'm Mike. Good to meet ya. Oh, and by the way I love the opening sound of the plop of a lure in the water . Nice touch! Thanks again

That’s awesome I just got the pond Prowler 10 and had the same idea using t-track for mounting my garmin and decided to see if anyone else had done it thanks for the video

Live Scope? Why not just fish in a damned aquarium?

Why doesn't the bass raider/pond prowler communities use kayak accessories? Gear track, paddle holders, and anchor trollies/wizards, etc are well established in the kayak world.

For an everyday working mans knife that I am going to abuse, I would prefer a cheaper knife for the simple reason that if i snap off the tip or booger up the blade, I haven`t lost much and it`s cheaper to replace. I have a nicer knife for when I just want to "carry" a pocket knife.

In addition to Imperial, Rough Rider also makes a good quality knife.

Pocketknives are just a great tool to have around. I certainly have my share. Very Nice video.

Live next to lake Tyler and it just keeps getting better

Never can have enough knifes in my opinion, got one in my pocket, one in each tackle box and a couple stowed away in the boat. Thanks for the video Mr. John!

I always have a net, even when wading. Back in the late 80's, caught a 3.5lb east TN smallie on an old Quantum Micro lite rod and reel using 2lb test. Wow, what an experience.

Very cool and thank you, how well does it cast micro baits? I just bought the same rod but mine is 7 foot.

very true @omoutdoors now we have all the equipment we want but we forget how important the fisherman's experience is, I love listening to your stories greetings good video🎉

I remember well, my great grandmother teaching me how to fish with a cane pole in our cow pond as a kid. Thanks for sparking that memory. I'm gona take your advise with using what you have in your box.

Thanks for video , its the best setup I have seen. I have watched numerous video's on these and most fail or blow up at some stage. With your set up , the key winning factors are as follows. Ventilation - these PWMs need good ventilation. Dials Off - This is very important to turn of the controll dial , and to have the rocker switch in the middle neutral position BEFORE plugging the unit into power. So again , thanks for your video and professional advice. God Bless Brother.

Very wise words.

I don't want to get one, because I don't find any weird stuff in Chicagoland waters.

We are spoiled as fisherman these days with all the equipment options their are to be had, and it`s easy to get caught up in over analyzing, over thinking, and worrying about all the aspects of our fishing trip so that we often forget the "real catch" is to just simply enjoy the day making memories with someone you love. Those are priceless, and if you happen to catch a few fish along the way, well that`s just the icing on the cake.....

Those are some great tips John. I enjoyed you telling both stories and learned something. Love the channel. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Fish on!

Enjoy the stories. Have blessed day.
