Ed offered to take me fishing and I took him up on it because all I had to do was bring a rod. Things have been busy lately and fishing wasn't on my list. Turned out to be a great day for both of us.

After a long wait, I was finally able to run down to Jackson Hole and pick up my dome. I had been waiting a few months for this day to arrive, now that it has I'm glad that it's over and in the rear view mirror. Super happy to have the dome!

Went out fishing with Ed and his boy Jeff. Jeff had never fished plastics before and he is now a believer in how effective they can be. He and Ed went out the day after this trip and caught many more. The only bait Jeff would fish with was the 3" crappie slayer. If you want to buy any of the baits you see here check out my Etsy shop by clicking on the link below. Thanks for your support! prospe...

My 3 year old granddaughter has been on me to make some purple lizards. We made some worms last week and she really had fun, so now she is back for more.

Lost a Rod and Found a Bear

Took Cash, AJ and Buddy out for a day on the lake. Fishing was tough but we ended up heading down stream and found a really cool canyon to drop anchor in. On the way out we were pleasantly surprised by seeing a black bear.

They say a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work and I think we proved it.

I've heard the further back you mount the pivot point on the handlebars, the easier it turns.
I think that might be the case, I’ll have to try that!
Wow. Awesome fix.
Thanks so much! 😊
That’s the first traeger emergency I’ve ever seen. 😂 Had a new bench grinder quit me. Found a spider web ball inside the switch blocking the current.
I hesitated sharing that. But I thought, TH-cam has been pretty good to me on some of my other projects. I might try to pass along a little trick. Not that it was very complicated. I’m just glad I had Uncle Royce when I was a kid to teach me about electronics. Haven’t been electrocuted yet! Happy new year!
Thanks for the tip. Happy New Year Joe.
You as well!
Love the build! Currently building my own! How did you remove the jack shaft to slide the sprocket on? Thanks!
Honestly, I can’t really remember. I think there might’ve been three bolts holding one of the bearings on and it just slid out after I was able to release them. If the bearing was in the way, I probably took it off with an adjustable wrench and a hammer. Good luck on your build! Let us know how it turns out.

👍🏻
Awsom build
Thanks 😊
So cool!
I have the same problem and need help any suggestions
We were totally buried until we got out the hammer tool. I would recommend a chisel bit from a rotary hammer if you can get a hold of one of them. It wasn’t much work after that. What a pain though! Let us know how it goes, please. That reminds me that I better get mine greased up again. Good luck!
Happy to see ya out brotha, happy thanksgiving and merry Christmas to ya all. i'm gonna get my butt to Wyoming and come fish
Merry Christmas to you as well my friend! I hope you had a great thanksgiving and that your family is doing well.
Looks like a great day on the ice! Nice fish and nice tree! Happy holidays Joe and Ryan!! Thanks for sharing. Look forward more ice fishing vids. My favorite!
Thanks! I never know if things are worth posting or not. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Happy Thanksgiving Joe! The "FatGuy" lures coming through as always.
You as well my friend. Looking forward to a great season. Say hello to Parker for me.
@@prospectoroutdoors Will do!
@@prospectoroutdoors Parker says Howdy!
@FishSteelerChronicles Nice! 😊
'Tis the season...ice season! Fun stuff, Joe.
Thanks! 😊
woohoo! gl this season.
Thanks! You as well!
Happy Thanksgiving. Now you’ve got me excited to punch a hole in the ice for big brookies Friday
Happy thanksgiving to you and yours. I was up at 4:30 this morning catching up on all of your videos. Can’t wait to see the Brookies!
Thanks for the reminder to get my gear ready, amigo. Happy Thanksgiving.
Definitely getting closer! Have a happy thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving to all! www.etsy.com/shop/ProspectorOutdoors
Love the hard water time of the year!
Definitely time to get things going again. I couldn’t figure out how to get the fish finder out of demo mode! 😂
Mike, thanks for your order! If I were to send you some extra baits, what would you be interested in? Large/small?
@ I’m a trout fisherman so small, I now have a source for my plastics. I more than willing to $$$ to support my friend.
Sounds good buddy. We’ll get you some coming. Thanks so much!
very well done!
Thank you so much!
Looks like you both had an exceptionally great day. Thank for sharing. Btw, do you ice fish the big horn?
We do Ice fish there. You never know what you’re gonna catch from day to day. We sometimes get into the Sauger and other times, It’s all catfish. Once in a while the trout come through, and they are usually very nice. Thanks for your kind words and support.
That was the coolest video, Joe. Glad you could share it with us. Good timing. You post some really cool videos. Keep it up. I can bearly swim lol. Sorry don’t get paid for comedy.
Hi there from Antonio, from Goa the state of India. Loved your detailed educational video. Am your new subscriber. Just had a question. Did you notice that when we don’t use pure lead then there is a visible amount of residue. Now in your electric melting pot, does it incorporate with the melted lead? And if so does it settle in the moulds that you are making? Please do reply.
Hello. Thank you for the kind words. The lead that I am using is probably not even close to pure. Most of the impurities float to the top and you are able to scrape them off with a spoon. Sometimes I use wax or sawdust to help in that process. Hope that helps! Take care.
Great action. Fall fishing is here.
Yes, sir! I need to sit down and watch some TH-cam myself. Been too busy doing other things these days. Can’t wait to get caught up! Thank you my friend.
Any new updates or mods on any of the ice houses im really looking forward to seeing yours this year again.
I have been doing some filming. Hopefully we will get things wrapped up before the season starts and get some video of using it to catch fish. Thanks for watching! Sorry so slow.
Totally Jealous! I love astronomy and star gazing. What a great find and addition. Can't wait to see it set up.
Great action. That water was smooooth. Got some nice specimens. Bonus rainbow.
Got into some bigger ones. Those goats looked like you could pet them. You need to take a bow and go after those carp
Pretty cool, Joe! Not sure how my wife would react if I told her I was buying an astronomy dome. 😀
We need a walleye fishing video!
Crazy cool. I don’t think I could drive by Henry’s without fishing. I would have paid good money to be there when you told Gina you were buying an astronomy dome
Thanks. It definitely wasn’t a time when you wanted to ask the wife if you could do something, you just had to tell.
Does it come with a heater... nice find. P.s. I'll cook a Buffalo, yum
Does it come with a heater... nice find
Funny thing, it did come with a heater. It’s in a tote up in my shop. 😂
Thanks for taking us all along, too!!!
You bet buddy. We’re gonna have to figure something else out though. I’m getting tired of bass fishing. 😂 bring on the ice!
@@prospectoroutdoors Well, it's not far off!! I closed up my house a couple of weeks ago.. Blew the water lines out, etc.. Heading back to the Basin over Christmas and will empty out the system after that week, hopefully for the last time, as I'll be moving full time next spring. Is the gunshop at Agri Tire a good place? I haven't gotten a chance to stop in there.
What town is the gun shop in? I’ll go check it out.
@@prospectoroutdoors South side of town, Greybull.
@@prospectoroutdoors South side of town in Greybull. A buddy and I were talking the other day about the refinishing of the road between Basin and Greybull, and the fact that the original road was in better shape than any 1 year old road in Wisconsin.. 😂😂😂
That was an infomercial for your baits
But wait, there’s more
Don't release carp...😮
Carp lives matter
Awesome Video! Those lizzards look like money. Well done Grandpa!
Grandma said that she was super excited to get them in the mail.
What a time to be alive. FaceTiming grandpa for custom purple lizards
I caught a nice 6-7lb walleye last Saturday at Barry’s landing. U should do some catfishing the bite was literally on all day on cutbait. Everything we caught was over 8 pounds.
I will have to get out and give that a try. I have been thinking about targeting the catfish lately. Save me a spot next time you go!
@@prospectoroutdoors they are fat and healthy right now
My buddy caught a cat the other day and it was beautiful.
@@prospectoroutdoors we caught a few different colored ones but when they get that beautiful gray color they are gorgeous!
@@prospectoroutdoors going to take my dad out Friday and Saturday, if u see an old blue kingfisher with 2 guys that’s us.
Well done, amigo!
👍🏻
Love the sparkles. Awesome Grandpa. One eyed One horned giant purple people eater.
That's an impressive your testing .Thank you for sharing
Any excuse to get out on the water. Thanks for your support!

Glad I'm not the only one that's learned the hard way why we don't lean over the edge of a boat with our glasses unsecured. 😊
For sure!
Good to see the field testing. Do you think if you put a piece of foil in the molds you could get a silver belly shine?
Sounds interesting 🤔 I will have to try that out.
Cool sighting. Nice Northern lights. Good to see the new molds in action. Nice match on the feed.
Pretty rough life for sure. Thanks!😊
Last molds I’ll buy “Today”. Sounds fishy. Looks fishy too. Can’t wait to see your product testing
She doesn’t buy anything I am selling these days.
Oh bummer, he was so sad! Crazy year of swimming wildlife. Great memories were made that day. Unk Joe comes thru with the grand slam of the day with a floating pole!
The bear was definitely not to be forgotten. I can’t imagine a kid having a rod that doesn’t float. We should market them for ice fishing.
Heck yeah those look great.
Thanks, buddy. I was super surprised how much I liked those little curly tails. When I caught that one behind the boat trolling, I was sold.
You just make sure to have everything poured up in every color when I’m ready to restock for ice fishing!! 😃
Like I always tell the kids, “you get what you get and you don’t throw a fit.”
Awesome vid Brother... Subscribed up and will be waiting for the Next one. Till then Tight Lines and Stay Blessed 😃👍
Thanks so very much!
