Great content, good to see a local with a nice set up.
I appreciate that. Glad you enjoyed the content and the boat.
Beautiful setup man, and earned a sub off the name alone. I’ve been saying for years that dishing us my therapy , not a worry in the world when I’m out on the water
Like minds and like hearts man, glad you feel the same way, everything goes quiet when fishing. Helped me through alot. Appreciate you subbing!
Best boat setup I’ve ever seen. 🤞🏽🤞🏽
Wow. That's greatly appreciated. Glad the effort I put into this boat is being received well.
Awesome set-up! Just bought a smaller 14/36 jon boat, but this gave me some good ideas
Thank you, means alot. Glad you got some good ideas. I'm sure your 1436 will turn out great! That was the original size I was going for, that's a good size for 1 or 2 people.
You’ve done a great job with that boat young man I’m proud of you.
Thanks, glad you like it and enjoyed the video.
Great video I have a similar set up , you have definitely done some research. Great job , keep enjoying the simple things in life , fishing is good for your soul
Thank you, glad you appreciate the efforts. Your right, fishing is definitely good for the soul...get that therapy!
Buying my first new boat for crappie fishing love the setup
Thanks, sounds like your going to have a blast with mods on your new crappie rig.
Great video, thanks for the tips.
Thanks for watching, glad the video was valuable
Where is the life jacket from? I love that it color matched with the boat. I didn’t even think to do that! This is why I love watching your videos, so many great ideas!
That means alot, glad you like my videos and that they are informative. Here is the link to the lifejacket. I got mine from Academy sports. www.academy.com/p/magellan-outdoors-sabine-paddle-sports-vest
Love your video's! It inspired me to go out and buy an old starcraft to deck out and enjoy the outdoors.
I love that you find my videos helpful and interesting. Those starcrafts have great hulls and will be a great build. Let me know how it turns out.
Great walk through
Thanks Dana, I appreciate it. Glad yiu found the video enjoyable!
Great video dude!
Glad you enjoyed it. Appreciate you checking it out.
I had the same issue with my Alweld on rod storage. I mounted a support mid ways along the gunnel. It can be removed or put down out the way. Just don’t in front my rear and front deck I mounted D-rings so when I lay my rods flat I can bungee them down. I’ll try and send you a picture because it took my a while to finally come up with something other than drilling like you mentioned. Nice video
Man that would be awesome if you cM send me some pics of your solution because I really do not want to drill holes😅. I appreciate it. You can send them to my Instagram or email me a fishingistherapy2020@gmail.com
Nice setup just got my first jon boat. Can't wait to build it out. My neighbor gave me it for free, its only a 10ft all I need
Aw man that's nice! That's going to be a good build. Are you going to put it up on your channel?
Nice set up, clean and everything in its place. As far as far as the rods I wouldn't have an issue with cutting a hole.
Your right, I ended up going with the Millennium Marine Rod transport rack and I love it. Saved me a few holes. Glad you enjoyed the video and the Boat.
Sweet setup
Thanks appreciate it.
Awesome
I have the same seats in mine.
Yes add the rod holders I think you would love it. What size is that boat?
Yes I have added the rod holders and they work great. The seats are very durable and comfortable, glad you like yours as well.
Thumbing Up👍
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Nice!
Thanks, appreciate it!
Great set up. Your boat is sure set up nice, but I would definitely put the 3 rod holders tubes in for your fishing rods. Mainly before you break one and then also it's a lot cleaner look.
I agree with you. It is a cleaner setup. Check out my video that premieres today and see the rod setup I have chosen to go with. Thanks for watching!
I have rod sleeves for my poles. Not only does it help protect them, but keeps them from tangling with each other. If you don't want to drill into your boat maybe rod sleeves will be good enough for now.
That's a great idea. Do the rod sleeves tangle your line when you slide them on or does the hooks get stuck in the sleeves when your rods are already rigged?
@@fishingistherapyonly time it might get snagged is if i have a treble hook but the material is pretty easy to work free
@PNW_Wolfpack_Adventures Okay, thanks for the advice. I will look into them and see how they work.
Hey brother, on anything that is rusting out, use dielectric grease and it will protect it from the elements
Thanks for the tip, I appreciate it. Reminds me to reapply some to my trailer lights.
I’ve got a Crestliner retriever 2070, it has holes cut for running rods up into the bow compartment. They work great I recommend it but if you cut holes yourself you might want to install sleeves up in there or the rods might be hard to slide out past the eyes. The holes in my bow have internal sleeves/tubes.
That's a great idea. I will look ingo do this. That saves alot of space! Thanks for sharing that.
@@fishingistherapy Tubes from a golf bag work good for this, you can get them real cheap at thrift stores. Great setup.
Nice! Thank you for the pointer, going to measure and see how I can make this setup work.
nice boat!
Thanks Cole. Glad you like it.
@@fishingistherapy you’re welcome
I’m with you on the holes. It hurts putting semi “permanent” mods in your boat. But, you’ll enjoy it that much more. Don’t overthink it. Just do it. I’m sure you’ll dig it but what’s the worst that can happen?
Your right. I'm juggling the millennium marine rod transport rack and cutting the holes. Going to make a final decision and post a video of what I decide to do. Thanks for the encouragement.
nice
Appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Hey bud have you ever thought about the adjustable jack plate transom mount?
Yes I have. Since this video I have troed the vance manufacturing adjustable jackplate and now im currently running the On The Fly adjustable jackplate which is more convenient especially whike underway.
How has the Tohatsu been holding up? Thinking of getting one. You have done a great job on your boat.
It has been holding up very well. Regular maintenance helps alot but it has been very reliable. Check out my recent tohatsu update video. th-cam.com/video/nXTJo05TL18/w-d-xo.html
Great Content! What kind of Jack Plate is that?
Thanks. It's a Vance manufacturing mini jackplate.
Could you tell me which model number trolling motor did you go with. Thanks
Not sure which model number,m as I ordered it from the Bass Tank. The sku number is MK -1358857, it's the Terrova 55/US2 Trolling Motor w/i-Pilot & Bluetooth - US2 12V-55lb-54" × 1
I think my John boat is like 14ft long I think 6 ft in the back 5 ft in the front, maybe about 3 foot deep, and yes the rod holders would be nice!
That's a big boat. It's basically the size of mine then. Mine is a 1448. 14ft long and 48 inch wide across the floor. 65 inches across the gunwales.
With a steering wheel
@@lajackabill I thought about getting a console unit but didn't want to give up the extra space
@@fishingistherapy shooooooot that’d be nice if you had space
What size boat is that?
Also where can I get those seats?
Also id like my 14 ft Jon boat to look like yours with the seats cut and the middle one out
I had mine customized by backwoodslanding.com in Alabama but I did it over the phone and email. My boat is a 1448 flat bottom weldbilt. I got my seats from tacklewarehouse and Amazon. They are Millennium marine boat seats
You're just below me. I'm in Whitfield county. You're in Robb county if you do anything wrong in your car. Got a U turn ticket like 20 years ago in Robb county. It was over $400.⁰⁰.
Was just down there today. Had to get an MRI done.
Hey, yes I an just below you. I'm in Cobb County, usually don't run into law enforcement much but I love the area. Hope the MRI went well.
Where did you get the flip seat mount?
I had the track custom welded and added tk the seat, so the mount came installed already. But I belive it is this one.Attwood SP-15900 Tilt-N-Slide Seat Mount Set, Bench Style Seat Plate on 15-Inch Rails, Strong Durable Aluminum Construction a.co/d/9hsPPMy
where did you get the flooring from?
I got it from Hydroturf. It's the duck camo color
Instead of making new holes I would go with vertical rod holders off of the bench.
Great idea! I am looking into a few options and that one sounds good
KEEP ON KEEPIN ON YOUNGBLOOD. NJOY YA VIDEOS
Always a pleasure! Appreciate you watching.
