[@SwampDiverOutdoors]

This is the Lunkers I subscribed to years ago. Spontaneous, crusty, and full of energy.

[@3VDM]

Exactly my thoughts.

[@johns5263]

why I clicked. had a feeling it was going to be an old vlog.

[@MrDmbobcat]

CRUSTTTYYY, who is your favorite Rob? The Rob, old man making a gillie suit and swiming a jig in the pool. Or the Rob on keto wearing short shorts, every brain cell in his body is wirling in a tornado, rob who shinns him self so bad on the box jumps while cam does it effortlessly.

[@HulkSmash08.]

Just wish he would upload more

[@andrewwolf4963]

I stopped watching him for 2 years, this was the first time I was excited to watch He can thank flair for his channel suggesting this video lol

[@JigginWithJordan]

At the end of this series you and I have to have an aluminum boat battle 👀

[@jtoutdoors9346]

High stakes. First boat to sink, loses. 😂

[@Kilo011]

A battle to the death 💀 😳 lol jj

[@beaujames8267]

I was just thinking whos was going to be better Jiggins or lunkers and I came to the comments to see if anyone had any opinions... Come to find out Jiggins already here lol

[@jroager]

Fixing up Aluminum boats... #trending

[@Hoodsaintfishing]

Loser has to blow up his boat lol

[@madison.outdoors]

Rob jumping on the boat fixer upper just further proves that AYO Fishing has indeed set a trend within the Googans and its great to witness the small guy inspiring the big boys.

[@terrencemontgomery80]

Yep

[@calvinh.8882]

My aluminum boat cracked up in the front by the trolling motor also, it was due to the trolling motor bouncing as I was hitting waves, so I had a guy weld another piece of aluminum over it so that it was double plated and, had him weld a 1/4-inch thick plate to mount the trolling motor to, and it didn't ever crack again. But I also put a velcro strap to hold the head of the trolling motor down so it didn't bounce so much when hitting waves.

[@collinstuart3622]

Glad you came in to stop the reel from going live! Love that y’all are dedicated to have a quality product for your buyers

[@andrewhoste7811]

Love this . AYO has inspired everyone to restore boat. This is amazing.

[@terrencemontgomery80]

THAT PART!!!!🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@waynewade6723]

Awesome to see you on this channel Rob!! Can't wait to see what you do with the boat!!!💯🔥

[@leutrellbodden3743]

Always a great surprise to see a Lunkers video 🤘

[@terrenceseymour]

I walked the battlefields that new zealand fought on in Vietnam and found the exact spot that my father took the complete charge of a claymore to his lower body. I understand your enthusiasm of walking the ground mate.

[@tylertaylor470]

May I ask what happened with your father and the claymore?

[@terrenceseymour]

@@tylertaylor470 Yep no worries, a trip flare initiated a claymore during an ambush on the corner of a track in Phouc tuy province. He was medivaced to a US field hospital where they were going to remove his legs when an Australian Dr noticed he was a kiwi by his dogtags that were fiber and not steel so he took over the treatment and saved his legs. They removed 308 claymore balls from his body and the other 400 balls had gone straight through him. Luckily I found the digitized commanders logbooks from Nui Dat fsb. I knew the date of the incident and dad's service number and proceeded to find the medivac request via jungle penetrator to the site which obviously had the grid reference so I checked Google maps against his battle maps and the exact same track was still there but was now farm land not jungle so I made my way to Vietnam with his original battle maps and found the corner of the track that they were ambushing. It was pretty spiritual to be honest. I also walked the site of the battle of long tan which felt like walking with ghosts. Dad survived and went on to be the longest serving soldier in New Zealand history when he retired. Thank God for that Australian Dr in Vietnam and dad then met my mum in hospital back in nz as she was a dressing changer there.

[@tylertaylor470]

@@terrenceseymour was this a friendly fire incident? So he hit a trip flare, and someone set off the claymore? And amazing he was able to save him at all let alone his legs.

[@terrenceseymour]

@@tylertaylor470 yes it was friendly fire from what I know. Unsure the exact sequence of events on the night and he doesn't really know either but from what I've read in after action reports etc it was a flare that set off a claymore accidentally. Yeah he's a tough bugger. It was difficult and dangerous growing up with a dad that was seeking that level of adrenaline rush again! Haha

[@thatfishingguy11b]

Honestly as a since 2016 sub and a grown man, thank you for stepping back in.

[@davet6567]

Gotta say respect here man. The fact that you didnt like something about the product and stopped it for now is awesome. Keep taking it.

[@deriklindsey9648]

Tricked tins is a genius when it comes to tricking out boats. Guys a legend

[@darrendrake3737]

Love the fact the googans are taking the power back and making sure if it’s has their name on it it’s top quality and not shit

[@honeybunbandit1]

Just call you Ayo with the Itty bitty lol 😆

[@maddgoatee9708]

Tricked tins, you literally picked the best aluminum boat guy to repair and trick this boat out. Wish you would have seen that boat crack and talk that old man down farther. Matt Downs from tricked tins is legit and his channel is underrated. Can't wait to see the build.

[@ridgepainter3318]

Really wish yall would produce all of googans products in America.

[@PWNSTERSkyline]

Not sponsored and just have one. Get a Primeweld 225 tig or mig 180 welder and it will do that boat easy and doesn't cost 2500. Tig is around 800ish and mig is mid 500, can do pretty much every metal and I've used it on flatbottom boats to car parts. Great all around beginner to intermediate welder that will do that boat like its nothing. You'll save money in the long run instead of buying all new stuff that could be a quick fix or have to wait on parts. And they can weld on 110 or 220.

[@ryankoehler3170]

It feels like Rob was meant for something greater than KZbin. Honestly.

[@janellevoigt5481]

Glad your back Rob, missed ya dude!

[@johnwatts5690]

Top deck can be welded from underneath if it is aluminum. You may want to add some reinforcement anyway if you have a heavier trolling motor.

[@byronhendrixfishing8393]

I wish I could whip that boat in the Toyota series next year. I’d leave the wrap on. I chase for Scott Martin and chasing for Hilary at Nationals.

[@nikkirichards4952]

All I can say is wow, that's 1 helluva "new" boat ya got there!! Cant wait to see the new build happen... another great Craigslist find.. Searched dispose but couldn't find the channel, is there a link for the new channel?? Have missed seeing your face and all your glory and the vids of course!! Hope that Lil Miss Hershey is doing better...

[@markdetoma9062]

So good to see you back

[@bear4482]

I sure hope you start putting some life back into the OG Channel I sure miss it ❗ I'm an old fart can't afford alot of extras so Uncut is out of the question. But love the rest❗ Thank you for your service Rob❗🇺🇲🇨🇱

[@Gymmafia88]

Man I fish with nothing but googan soft plastics because of you lunkers. I got into bass fishing 3 months ago and am hooked. Just wish I had the $ to get that bag. 😕

[@ronthompson2366]

I have to say... I have had the big full on fiberglass bass boat. I was still in the military and I fished it every chance I had... well the military had other things that were more important than my off duty bass fishing... so long story short I sold the boat. But years later I retired... and when it came time for another boat. I went to an Aluminum boat. I just didn't need that much boat anymore. I love it... easier to care for... less opportunity to damage the hull ...it fishes shallower water and access to some smaller lakes / ponds.... the list goes on. Sure on big water a big rig is smoother and faster. But in general I love my Aluminum boat.... Some ideas... go with a jet vice a prop... shallower water... Install float boxes on the back and a tunnel in the hull ... Bob's transom jack plate... of course rear anchor poles... the rest is simple... electronics and trolling motor... plus the cosmetics... they have some really good flooring material now that can replace the carpet and it doesn't get hot... basically the only thing is how much you want to spend. You have the money to spend so yeah send it. Upgrade the wheels and tires on the trailer... I hope you show the build and progress it will be fun to watch. Use your contacts and get a Merc.. I am a little surprised you didn't look into something like Grizzly.... variety of different brands... in a plain somewhat plain new Aluminum boat to start your build from. Comparing the cost... and having a warranty... either way. This is going to be a interesting build process and project. Looking forward to it... this is good content. 👍

[@sigbeatsmm]

appreciate the podcast with mike 👍....

[@inw_sentinel]

Wow... boat like that runs 5k up here in east washington / idaho...

[@Swimbait_addiction]

Can't wait to try the new reels. Have several rods. Hope you guys make a big swimbait rod eventually. Like 4 to 8 oz. Bags look sweet. Thought when I subscribed to Uncut you were giving away that boat to subscribers?

[@uproutdoors7070]

This is awesome! I just put aluminum framing and decking in my jon boat. I built it for fishing impoundments and reservoirs loaded with timber. I just bang through the timber where other boat would be scared to go!

[@shane012504]

My dog has the same disease and he is a 16 year old piken and I've spent over $18,000 on him the best thing for his treatment is prednisone liquid steroid and it rebuilds the whites and balances the blood out! Prayers for Hershey!!!

[@dillonkaradunis3119]

You should trim some off the break side and make it ergonomic for your palm to be checking your line for bites or twitching the rod and make sure it is easy to clean if you go to "the filth " as rackly calls it

[@paulb351]

Finally! Looking foward this series of videos

[@trentfindley7212]

Boy this video, everything about this video. From the boat to some of the references. Literally i have a story behind em. Just from personal experiences

[@Jhampton83]

You gotta let me sale you an Xpress buddy! Just like when I sold you the skid steer! These aluminum boats are legit

[@JohnAllen-po5wd]

Love how you speak the truth and whatever is on your mind. Refreshing.

[@BassRaider]

I’m excited for this build!

[@TheREELBass_Dad]

Man you sold my dream boat for my 5 year goal boat 😅 For Sure won’t be disappointed in the Yamaha though A++ I’ve ran a 2002 50hp for 8 years now

[@ST-ku5ni]

Same here. 100% Sir!

[@JoseMedina-bl5ym]

Look at pulse welders there are actually expensive but do research on welding aluminum

[@_the484]

You gotta have your Colorado buddy back on the pod soon. Dood knows a bunch…

[@blakefourrier1245]

Miss these type of videos

[@henryburg5538]

I loved that boat!!!!That boat is my dream bass boat. Why would you trade it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I can’t wait to see the other one fully redone.

[@gungadinn]

There have to be weld shops in the Dallas area that can weld aluminum. Take a 1/4" drill bit and drill a hole where the crack ends. The welders should be able to do the rest.

[@brockestes1202]

Hey man I love your vids and I would love to meet you and the Googan squad. I would love to go fishing with you but I know the odds of it are very low but if I could I would love too fish with you

[@dfox7777]

Love the video, has your old school feel to it! Man if I just picked that up and had an unlimited budget, I'd go jet drive on it! Kinda like Ott's tin rig!

[@Grenade825]

I lowkey really liked the storge unit stuff

[@SamMan85]

I wonder why Lunkers didn't use Tiny boat Nation, obviously not a tiny boat. But I'm definitely down for the series.

[@nock-offarcherytv]

If you want another prime black series bow my shop still has a few in stock if you want one make a trip down to conroe texas we can get it ready for you

[@p_campbell]

Holy cow lunkers is actually uploading a video..... 😜🤠

[@RIPFPSDOUG]

I would 100% take that gig bud. But I just cant hop to Dallas and hope it works out. If you're ever up north Atlantic area, and need a camera man/editor though, hit me up. Im your guy. I can also take you to the best spots for Bass, Trout, Salmon, Whitetail, and Elk. Seriously shoot me a message if you are ever up north east. We dont stack double digits here like they do down there, but We have some of the best trout streams in the country.

[@justinscomp]

My prediction: We never hear of or see this boat again. Prove me wrong Rob!

[@Lunch_box]

Gotta watch this before Rob takes it down

[@johnneallakel]

Way to go Rob! If your camera man crashes this one at a Bucees you can WELD IT! Easy peaseu

[@joesguiltyguitar]

Rob said only one week to fix up a boat Haha yeah buddy 🤣💨 lol 😂 Good luck with that one Rob ...

[@bamadondon0495]

Should have named those shorts "FREDDOM HANGERS"💪✌️

[@johnneallakel]

Oh and by the way congrats on everything you have created. Glad to see back. Thank you sir

[@run_rabbit-run9762]

Why did he get rid of the other boat to do this?.....someone needs to get AYO on the line, he's gonna need to give Lunkers some tips on polishing turds.

[@WoodandThread]

On your front deck cap where your troller motor is. Make sure to drill out the ends of the welds before welding them up so they don't keep spending and check your ribs in the front to make sure there not cracked or any of your structure under the deck.

[@StoutBuildingCo]

@ 24:00 fire ant on your shirt😂

[@67stang65]

Looks like that crack you just found might have come from the screws put in that panel?

[@michaelwolf7840]

No man it's not a bad idea to throw away a $100,000 boat without knowing what your getting I mean there's a lot of people like me who are really struggling right now but it's so awesome that I can see people like you giving away so much. I mean I'm currently living in the back of my dad's garage in south florida and i sweat all day and night because rent is way to high in florida. I'm not looking for money, I just think that you should appreciate what you have a little more then you do

[@jasondubreuil6402]

Glad to see you back Rob, always a pleasure to watch your videos. I missed your shit on heah man.

[@sandywoods9740]

Happy you found the time for video here. I know you have put everything into Speak The Truth. Good luck with the boat.

[@carlbecker3828]

Not a boat owner but ive rode in a few but i think aluminum boats not only r lighter but i think them beimg lighter causes a rougher ride then a glass boat

[@carlbecker3828]

Congrats on getting reported

[@MrHondarider01]

Rob can you get the fish ones back on the website? I like those but they aren’t on the website anymore.

[@MisterEmoto]

Hell yea, classic rob is back! Was worried you were going Hollywood on me

[@richardsimmons6526]

Used boats are crazy right now. A lot of people would kill to have that boat. My first boat was 1500 with a 25hp and it got me on the water with my dog and I still have better memories on it then my 45k boat.

[@joshtucker839]

Glad to see you back brother. Ready to see what's to come!

[@XclusiveDesigns1]

Should have gotten an aluminum Ranger. 2013-2019ish. All aluminum hand built boats. Built with .100 aluminum. Or a triton of those years. Exact same as a Ranger. Just different cosmetics. The construction is the exact same though. Can’t tell the difference between the two until they go through paint.

[@pootmahgoots8482]

I got the fizz going for those black series rods and the spinning reels. I'm frothy thinking of the upgrades you're doing to the new boat.

[@FabianRodriguez-tl9rp]

You got that BELLMEAD SPECIAL LOL 😂 GOOD LUCK WITH THAT

[@davee5384]

You might wanna check the entire front of that boat for more cracks AND re enforce those areas to handle the larger trolling motors you are going to use on it. Luckily it is aluminum and you can have it easily welded. Going to cost a grand or so to have it fixed and re enforced.

[@Brooksy4592]

Lunkers bk to doing what he does best spontaneous crazy shit and I love it 😂 can’t wait to see what you do to new tin rig

[@txmarine82]

Can’t wait to see all the builds Bro

[@qsaace7240]

what happen to the camper you had on the back of your dually

[@gregsmith2377]

Thanks for the great update

[@JayJay-sv6mt]

Those tunnels were bricked and built like that back then ??

[@evanbrackebush6855]

It's seats and a little dash how badass can you make it lol 😆

[@ianfarquharson3772]

Good to see you back on here,and doing something new and interesting. Can't wait to see new series,and watching you burn in some aluminium.ThankQ.TkEZ>UK

[@TSK-jj9pb]

I know that Atwood’s in Waco anywhere!!

[@garylukas3476]

Tricked tins guy does good work.

[@MrRolandarriaga]

Our dude is back! Lesssgooooo!!

[@nate.hanlon]

when or where is the Belgium videos coming out.

[@VibN117]

Hope the beet for you pup man. Lost 2 this year and our cat, dont wish it on anyone, pets are one of the best parts of life.

[@scoper1008]

Good thing about aluminum boats welding is way cheaper than fiberglassing

[@doctork02]

Thank you!! God bless you and your family!!!

[@iankenney6515]

Glad you're "back". Hope the original Googans didn't give up control of the company. Sounds like shit has gone a little sideways. Right the ship dude. Throw a jet pump on that sucker and bring the boys up to your home state. I know y'all floated on the peninsula for steel but there are many more options for salmon. Put those kids on something that tastes great in the twenty pound range.

[@coreydark8795]

You have a sponsorship with Merury sooo why not put one of their motors on it? If not then try and find a good Evinrude E tec they're very fuel efficent.

[@TickleMebawls315]

Those are carpenter ants but they still ants 🤣hope ur boat project goes well and can wait to see more 🤘🏻

[@codiharrisTx]

The good ole bellmead atwoods lol

[@LuLu-ht9bq]

[@jacos.870]

Badass aluminum boat dude! That 90 is a little old but I guarantee if she’s got oil in her she’ll be badass too!

[@markcantu8611]

I watch all of tricked tins videos. He is legit, your gonna have one sweet aluminum rig.

[@bullitjohnson9917]

Hopefully your back for good love the videos

[@biggjoe8526]

When I think the heartbeat is no more and it comes back.

[@Mike_Gs]

yo lunker when you do all the changes to the boat is there any chance you could add the prices upp from everything because i have always wanted to do the same

[@williamrobinson3664]

That would make one bad ass aluminum bass boat after you and tricked tins get done with it. That would be an amazing boat to give sbfishing, to replace the tricked tins Jon boat he uses!! That would be good for all parties, in more ways than one.

[@michaelmuncher34]

Congratulations on 2million Rob

[@Klintong79]

This is going to be great, can’t wait to see what you do with this boat!

[@debassin2135]

Do you think they’ll make a womens fishing short? The rainbow bass one but a little shorter ?
