Steven Rinella and Grant Gulley Troll for Lake Trout on Lake Michigan | S2E01 | Das Boat

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 มิ.ย. 2024
- In the first episode of Season 2, Steve introduces you to the new Das Boat-Dos Boat. After a bumpy start, Steve gets to South Haven, MI, where he recruits the help of local charter captain Grant Gully. Steve, Grant, and a local fabricator put in 10 hours of work getting the boat ready to fish for lake trout in 100 feet of water. With good reason, Grant is somewhat skeptical about the 14 foot, 50-year-old boat’s ability to handle the big water of Lake Michigan. Luckily, the conditions are perfect allowing them to deep water troll for the native char better known as lake trout. Along the way, they discuss Jon Gary-Steve’s fishing mentor and the original captain of Dos Boat-the young anglers Jon influenced, the decline (and comeback) of the lake trout, and a whole lot more. They might even catch some fish.

This is probably the most over-produced show about a cheap boat and I’m totally here for it.
Same here man baba
free content
Old John Gary must of rolled over in his grave when he saw that boat flipping off the trailer
I about rolled over in my grave for pete's sake!
Cameron’s Clams haha 🤙
Cameron’s Clams it looked like it just took the paint off when they zoomed in on it.
Ole John knocked that boat off the trailer to add some excitement and motivate him like he said.....sometimes our misfortunes lead to positive outcomes!
Craig Bielsky exactly. Just another story and battle scars.
One thing I absolutely respect about Steve is that he isn't afraid to share his mistakes with the viewing audience.
I like how Das Boat (and MeatEater) values conservation. Their content is not only entertaining, but also educational.
I think that's why I like them so much too. I was never into 'hunting shows' or the sort before. Now I watch the shows, listen to podcasts, buy stuff off the website and have even read one of their books. Some of my favorite moments from the TV show was Steve talking about his dying father just wanting to go for a long drive or them making an old Leopold biscuit and gravy recipe out in the woods over a campfire.
Finally a fishing show where they actually keep the fish.
Check out Opaleye and Deer Meat For Dinner.
Right? I’m really stoked that people are getting into the catch&cooks. Not many people can afford to go catch good food and let it go
Catch and release is important though, I think to both have fun and help keep a healthy population. Cant kill everything every time.
They don’t call him MEATEATER for nothing!
Steve will eat it if it's legal too....
Gotta love it!!!
Steven was just double checking that the curb was in working order.
That made me laugh out loud
Rinella is this generation’s Kerouac, Steinbeck, Fitzgerald and Leopold rolled into one! He truly has his own style, but we are lucky to have someone like Rinella who uses words like a paintbrush! Flowing them into a work of art! It’s incredible. His books are amazing, but i think his true art form is in the spoken Narrator breaks in all his shows, this one included!
add a touch of Bourdain as well
Agree. He is a great image for the modern hunting culture.
... He's great and all but no. Just, no.
I'm just getting into fishing/hunting and appreciate folks like Steve because if it was just Nugent and the alike no thanks...
“My brother REALLY does have an extra nipple, though”
I love it, glad y’all are back at it!
That was DEFINITELY necessary information
As a man with an extra nipple. I appreciate this ha
My brother had one. Got it removed and the scar looks worse than the nipple 😂
What a story. There isn't a group of people I appreciate more than old school mentors
My trailer broke into a couple pieces years ago. Boats make a very distinct sound when you're dragging them down pavement. 🤣
Couldn’t be more stoked about this!
Same bro! 🙌🏼
Since when did you watch Meat Eater
About how I feel when you drop a new vid Lawson 🤘👊
DOS BOAT - little boats, big dreams!
Dos Boat slaying trout in my home state of Michigan for at least 2 episodes back to back! I mean - does it get any better?! Steven Rinella sure knows how to produce true fishing and conservation entertainment.
So glad this is finally here. Love you guys at MeatEater!!
Not a huge fish guy but something about Das Boat gets me thinking I’m missing out! Great to see season 2 on the board
Youre definitely missing out!!
God I wish these were an hour long.
Just binge the episodes back to back 😂
Or two
I'm just starting out fishing at 35 yrs of age, so getting some lessons from Steve is absolutely perfect. He conveys pretty detailed knowledge and experience without making you feel inferior in any way. Plus, an Outdoor Canada subscription always helps. Thanks for this series tho, it's TREMENDOUS!
Never too late. I started at 13 and at 38 I still love it
Can't wait for meateater season 9, I never really hunted before in my life, discovering the meateater show got me interested in hunting and now I cant get enough of it. Less then a month till the start of the season over here in VA.
Me too Cole - I share the sentiment. I’m 30 now and on my third hunting season. Love it!
Congrats on getting in and keeping the tradition alive.
Meat eater got me into fishing too
Thank you for letting us use your boat, John. We really appreciate it.
Best hunting show ever made with the best hunter-host-naturalist ever. Waiting for Meateater season 9.
People who dislike Lake trout usually improperly handled and cleaned the fish after boating it. This dislike is a reflection of the angler not the fish. Great videos l have been waiting for season 2 , thank you for your hard work in making them. All the best from Canada.
I love watching das boat also i am a big fan of the older starcraft boats im still fishing out of my grandfather 14 1982 starcraft and the fish just love that boat. Every time I'm out I swear that grandpa is there with me
My wife grew up in South Haven. Was was excited about this episode. All the landmarks. I just loved the fishing.
I have a lot of family in Michigan, all living on or near different lakes. That image of a town on the water, with people boating around to visit neighbors like something out of Venice was one I was accustomed to. Now, years later, with much of that family passed away or moved elsewhere, I miss those trips.
As a kid from from small town in Michigan that fished lake Michigan and has family in south haven I can say that I love that y'all inspire others and new generation to get out and enjoy nature
what a freakin legend. production quality is top tier and i am still amazed they release this for free. 10 out of 10
I’ve been fishing lake trout for 40+ years. Whenever people ask me if I still fish, the next question is if I have any smoked fish available. Looking at the video of the charter Captain’s smoked fish, it’s perfect.
Smoked lake trout is perfection and makes taking this fish for food worthwhile and appreciated.
I can't believe this series doesn't get 4 time the amount of views it has. Top notch as usual. Keep up the good work.
I find it funny that season 1 made me inspired to get my boat running and go fishing for the same thing you guys go fishing for in Michigan in season 2. Hopefully by the end of this year I'll be able to smack some Mack just like you boys did.
Many thanks for showing my home state of Michigan.
DAS BOAT SEASON 2 BABY!
This is a week from the heavens! Dos boat season 2 and meat eater season 9!!!
I grew up on the other side of beautiful Michigan and have since moved far away, but the fantastic memories of the bountiful hunting, fishing and well other stuff will always be a huge part of my heart. As cliche as it sounds you can leave the Great Lakes but they will never leave your soul.
Awesome show. I fished with Captain Grant yesterday and had the best charter day ever. Captain Grant is a true professional. He knows how to give his clients the best time and he can put you on the fish. Clean boat and great equipment for you to catch the biggest fish you have ever caught. We had 4 guys and we all caught are limits. Such a great day fishing with captain grant on that "big fancy boat.
South Haven is my favorite place to visit in the summer time. Absolutely beautiful.
These series are awesome. I too wish they where way longer. Up here in BC Canada where the roads are steep, winding and rough a transom strap over the whole back end of the boat is the way to go nothing worst, than maybe I forgot the cooler, than dumping your boat on the way to the spot!
Lake Trout look like they'd wreck some of my lures and I like that. Great season opener!
"I dunno, a fishin' boat"
All you need to know. Steve could stand in a ditch and hook an Elk on a barbless fly.
The man is a legend and embodies the entire spirit of the hunter/gatherer...plus his cookbooks are among the best i ever owned.
Thank you Mr. Rinella
Wow just when i thought you should drive legally you literally rolled the boat off the trailer. Great videos from you guys. I love every second. Being literally the only person in my family that hunts and fishes I truly enjoy watching and taking notes.
Lake Michigan! In our neck of the woods! So awesome to see you are in our home waters! Keep up the cool videos!
Love it! Can’t wait until ( pure Michigan) comedy of errors. Thank you for not disappointing!
I've hit that curb more times than I'd like to admit 😂 awesome to watch this episode and see home!
I’m a retired American sitting over here in Thailand
Enjoying so many of your video’s thanks for keeping it real and insightful on so many levels
This is the most ingenious show i have every watched! Its competition...but not a competition
I cant help but think that Mr. Gary would be nothing but beaming with pride that not only his old boat but the values that he helped instill in all of those neighborhood kids are still alive and well and being passed down to an untold number of people in the next generation thanks to the reach of your influence Mr. Rinella. Keep up the respectable work Sir.
Just made my day here in still-locked-down Melbourne, Australia. Thanks, Steve and the rest of the MeatEater crew. Hanging out for the new season on Netflix tomorrow too!
Glad your back in Michigan. State land deer hunting is calling you.
Love seeing my state highlighted for it's subdued glory. Nothing flashy here, just good old fashioned fun.
Glad Das Boat is back for season #2. Hopefully it will have more seasons to come. Really enjoyed the 1st season. Kind of like 39hrs. to me. I want to see each every year
Cool to see you guys in my neck of the woods and waters (Grand Haven). Michigan has some pretty amazing outdoors to explore. Can't wait to see what you guys are up to near Boyne on the next one!
Good for a laugh. Good for the soul. Thanks To all the Gary's and thanks to you Steven for showing old boats still catch fish
Excited season 2 is here! Gives me a little escape to everyday stressors. Thank you
Me and my sons love watching your videos. Keep it up. These videos makes me want to take them outdoors.
Hahahahaha, Dude I grew up on Mona lake and now I look at the Muskegon river when the leaves are off. I have fished off many sizes and styles of boats. The one I still have is a 17 foot aluminum with a 50 horse tiller. bought new in 2000. I have fished all over the state. My buddy and I won the walleye tournament trail one year. still got the plaques for first place and biggest fish. Started binge watching meat eater and now the fishing part. Love all of it. GREAT piece of video and journalism , i'm hooked. Thanks.......Rob.
ITS BACK!!! BEST SERIES I HAVE EVER WATCHED!
I am so glad this series is back! And what a great back story on that boat!
Man I love this! I've got an old 16' alumacraft that I was working on for a while. It's been sitting next to my house neglected for the past few months. Time to get back to it!
I wasn't trout fishing but i got me a few walleye an perch out of there yesterday. I've been lucky enough to travel to Florida and back Michigan still my favorite ...fishing ...hunting... its just amazing

I watched the first season of Das Boat and was great. It really takes me back to the boats and fishing I did with my Dad when I was a kid.
Michigan born and raised. My Grandfather used to have his horse pull his spearing shanty out on to lake Michigan to spear Lakers and whitefish over the shoals off of Emmet county. Talking 1920's, 30's, 40's. Waugoshance Point, Gray's Reef, White shoal. Love Meateater and love the new boat series.
Glad for Season 2
Best 2 days of entertainment in awhile new episodes of das boat and meat eater the next day!
