THE BEST KAYAK FISHING CRATE EVER!! VIBE SEA GHOST 130

[@JustinSmith1287]

Hands down the best setup I've seen to date. And likely the cheapest. I'm probably going to mirror this exactly, minus the anchor setup. Dang, man nicely done!

[@justingilbert3667]

This is one of the nicest setups I've seen. And that is counting the crazy expensive options out there. Well friggin done!!! You selling these on Etsy yet?

[@ipathvvv]

I'd buy one!

[@trwas]

I'd buy one too!

[@WaffleShortage]

love that anchor setup. so clean and functional.

[@denniskuenze659]

Wow, you hit it out of the park with this one. What a great idea! Thanks for sharing it. I'll be making a few of these soon.

[@TheGoatMumbler]

Thanks for watching!

[@bowman8316]

That was the best ive seen ! Thank you 👍🏻 probably the Indian lol 😂🤣

[@lestermoes8179]

Could you post up details on the mounting procedure, including hardware, for the anchor tube? I'm curious how the rope and anchor are not getting snagged when deployed. Awesome job by the way, very clean kayak crate!

[@larisaplotnikova7043]

*Exceeded my expectations **enjoyable.fishing** recommend in quality & appearance - bought this for my 9 yr old daughter, but would recommend it for any age girl*

[@luispardo3323]

Kick ASS!! Simple and to the point! Thank you, Buddy!

[@charlespruitt6536]

Very nice setup. I love how clean it is. It doesnt look awkward and overdone like most of the crates you see people slapping together. I will be building mine like that. Thanks for the great tips.

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

If you strap your crate with bungees...and tether everything TO THE CRATE you're going to loose E V E R Y T H I N G ! I will only use flat strap or paracord to tie my crate or at least TETHER the crate to the kayak.

[@damionandy]

Man, awesome video. I grew up on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi and now live in carolinas. Just now getting into fresh water fishing and kayak fishing. This was an excellent video and saved me a ton of money! Thank you!

[@t.f.3305]

i have been watching to many of these

[@Finntastic]

Well done! Well thought out and designed. The shower drain tip is excellent. Thanks for sharing.

[@gpb29]

Admittedly, as you started this vid I was a skeptic. So many videos that just waste our time. I was wrong. I did need to see it!! Excellent job, man. I just bought a Pescador Pro 100 and will be using this video to set up my crate. Thanks for sharing.

[@whooots]

Could you outline/list the items you used to make this in the description??? Thanks

[@shawndavis2329]

Did you ever list the parts somewhere? I'd like to see that

[@devinspilker3498]

Thanks for the video. I also have a seaghost 130 and have. Even trying build something just like this. Couple questions. What trolly cart did u purchase? What size milk crates did you use? Lastly, what brand and size cooler are you using. Thanks again!!

[@cheyennehdakota854]

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME. DIY DONE GREAT. You may have knocked this out in two days but I can see you really knew what you wanted and needed. This is a true labor of love! I bought a 10.6 Old Towne Sportman kayak recently to see how the other half lives (my other kayak is a well used LL BEAN sit in). I wanted something basic that I could build up and since storage is always a concern this is a fantastic solution. Thanks so much for sharing your mind and your time :)

[@desertboy9632]

I just got one the sportsman 106 yesterday I havnt gone out In water but I stood on it and was a little flimsy/squishy on deck when I would walk idk if it cus I’m on hard floor not I water or is yours a little flimsy/bend when standing ?

[@bronwenable]

I'm sold. How does the grate attach to the anchor sleeve? Thanks

[@BobBohner4851]

Yup you’re right. This it’s the best and I’m copying ALL YOUR IDEAS. Thanks

[@BluecollarBackcountry]

Mines almost identical. I did buy the high dollar crates at Academy (I haven't stolen a milk crate in years) bahahaha nice rig for sure.

[@TheGoatMumbler]

Yeah. Two things I pick up off the road or trash piles. Milk crates and 5 gal buckets from Lowe's and Home Depot. I bet I have 10 crates!

[@diasalexandros6651]

How do you even reach back to access stuff?

[@boomer8393]

Excellent design - slick and practical. The moniker 'TheGoatMumbler' caused a momentary 'Deliverance' flashback, but the video proved worthy of my attention. Well done!

[@Imightberiding]

Oh man, when you were spinning the crate around to show all the angles at the end of your video, I noticed your "Don't Mess With Texas" sticker. I just caught a glimpse of it on a small screen & thought it said: "Don't Fish With Jesus". I burst out laughing because I was thinking about all the fishing parables in the Bible & realised he would be the last person you'd want to fish with if it were a competition. He would best you every time to the point of seriously pissing you off. He'd be catching them all while you came up empty handed. Now if you were fishing together, you would probably go home with lots of fish. At any rate, not being from the USA, I don't always automatically recognise all your slogans. Cheers from Canada. BTW, that's a smart setup you made for yourself.

[@wayneerickson1791]

I made a crate system like this using the zip ties for hinges. I think I need to make the slots bigger as it ratchets tighter and tighter with each opening. I saw another diy using offset cabinet door hinges. I think they would be sturdier and Align better. Buy heavier stiffer crates over lighter.

[@claudexy]

wow..great setup. nicest i've seen yet. i will try to make mine very similar to yours....thanks...lol interesting things for me to do during winter...:) take care ,buddy + nicely made video.

[@maricarmenrodriguez1403]

Not using as tackle box. Used this for small odds and ends organizer. Works perfectly.

[@utetrahemicon]

Milk crate theft is a really big problem for dairies and stores in the US and costs the industry thousands of dollars every year. While the big boys might be able to suck up this kind of loss, it can have a very real impact on the smaller shops and dairies and it’s you, as the consumer, who will end up paying for it.

[@dedpoptart]

I'm copying this entire design only because I can't buy a better cart. Well done, easy to follow video with a good descriptive narration.

[@JoseGarcia-ph2ir]

Lowes does carry it. I was looking at them yesterday. 13.oo each or 19.99. Yours looks awesome

[@mo-reesespieces9066]

Sorry if I missed it but how did you mount the hinge for the top part of the crate to the bottom crate? Ditto to everyone else's nice comments. Cool idea. Peace, Mo

[@markfromaustralia1594]

Great video till you disrespected Native Americans. I have a friend that is a real American and will stand up for him every day of the week.

[@Yelladog78]

I'm doing this only deleting the rod holders and using the crate to double as a dolly to pull the kayak closer to water.

[@BeardedKayakFishing]

Just found this. Best one yet. Only thing is i would mount rob holder on angle for over hanging trees and easier to cast without hitting behind you

[@roberthall5616]

been looking for an excuse to buy a Morakniv. They have one that has a cork handle so it floats....

[@mre4875]

Saw this video awhile back. Since then I have customized my crate system. Just stumbled across this video again. Enjoyed it even more this time as I can now really appreciate a well put together crate. I might steal your anchor tube idea. I like what I did with mine but I like yours better. Not sure if my well is wide enough though.

[@byn1975]

Nice crate! Can you post a link to the wheels shown on this crate? Thanks!

[@oldfireguy57]

What model and brand of dolly do you have and is it difficult to access the ice chest from the seat.

[@turbodog1542]

How did you attach your paracord to the lid and create?

[@orly5962]

Yes sir, you were right. Best one I’ve seen done 👍👍💪💪

[@johnbates8964]

I'm really liking the "launch tube" anchor storage, well done!

[@josephlipp275]

I think I am going to add that to mine

[@Didmy30]

Should have video'd it in the sun. Hard to see.

[@limatolu]

I plan on making this, thanks for the share. You knocked this out pretty nice. I'm digging the extra tray on top.

[@johnokamoto6762]

I'm using your anchor storage idea for my crate! I've seen so many people using the tube on the inside where it gets in the way and takes up valuable space. Your idea is so much better!

[@nancyhainline2517]

How hard is it to recover if your kayak flips?

[@romansthirteen-four8626]

Love the setup - can you do the step by step build video?

[@rickwieland7920]

Can you tell me what model dolly you have. I have the same kayak

[@clarkkent7638]

Can you get to your cooler behind the crate while on the water?

[@letun3481]

You had me at "Don't mess with Texas" :)

[@darylhockin8088]

nice setup mine i took a 3rd crate and cut it down to make a lid for my top

[@chillios2222]

lol pretty much yea theres a lot of videos

[@schoolboy405]

Look at that wacky worm just... wackeeeng

[@txmexnittro]

Good looking crate box💥🙌🏻

[@bassdojo]

You could sell that set up for $100 easily!

[@kevinsheridan2432]

Great video, thanks for sharing, next time film it out in the light

[@robhaynes7630]

It's not the arrow it's the Indian! Love it!

[@Fish_Castro]

How is the anchor tube mounted?

[@LosAngelesPilot]

Great idea, Copying...

[@NasTimeAdventures]

I almsot didn't bother but I'm glad I did. You're a clever man with some great ideas. Thanks buddy.

[@kennethmartin9583]

Really hard to see

[@Arcturian1111]

I'm looking to make one of these crates with the wheel axels permanently installed into the crate, to use as a method of transporting my kayak as well. I'm almost finished with the idea. And then I can utilize your ingeniously made fishing crate. Great job.

[@NanookGaming]

Good video,. Thanks

[@comfortablynumb9342]

I just got a used Vibe 130 Sea Ghost from 2017. It's my first kayak so I don't have anything to compare it to but it's nice. It does it's job, take me fishin'. I'll have to check out your videos about it. In my opinion one of those tackle boxes is enough on the boat, and a soft bag full of soft plastics. If you find the fish they should bite lots of different stuff. A box of jig heads, weedless rigging hooks and a few hard baits are all I take for the saltwater. A few paddle tails, shrimp imitations, and jerk shads are all it takes. Mine are either Gulp, Z Man, or Salt Strong usually.

[@DannyWalker1949]

Looks Real GOOD. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@130flyboy65]

Drain cap is clever!

[@richardyuen6354]

How do u reach your cooler?

[@michaelosmon]

“Now you could use pvc and spend hours with a dremel....but I want mine to look nice” - points to a pvc anchor storage

[@maiko6862]

Difference is a straight tube vs the reel recess which holds the rods secure. That's a lot of work for a $20 of the shelf part.

[@Fish_Castro]

He was talking about the rod holders not the anchor.

[@PedroHernandez-iz8ef]

What dolly do you use?

[@kpocala1061]

Check out them Plano hydro flow 3600 boxes. They let your tackle breath better. Great video and God Bless Texas!

[@ozzarks]

Holy Shiiiiiiidizzle ! You were not kidding, ABSOLUTELY the best crate, and I have watched about 1000. So glad I saw your video before I wasted my time, money and energy on trying to figure it out] by trial and error. The hinged top is PURE GENIUS ! Thank you for telling us about it with OUT any useless jibber jabber. Look forward to the rest of your videos. Nick in Redfield Arkansas.

[@josephspina7827]

I made similar crate box, i used small tie-wraps for hinges on one side , on the other end (front of box) installed a plastic knob on one half and a small bungie cord on the other to keep it closed and secured. On the top section i purchased a cutting board and cut it with a 1/2 inch over hag on all sides, drilled two 3/8th holes on the front and two more on the back side of the cutting board about 3/4 from the (front end and back end) side of the board and opened the holes to the sides and with a bungie cord attached to each end of the small crate to create a lock and hinge using the holes on the cutting board. Everything else is similar two rod holders on each side, knife i keep it somewhere else, i have a similar anchor setup but not installed and multiple inter changeable jig boxes for different fishing scenarios

[@tracyjohnson9997]

Great setup! Thank you for sharing

[@TheGoatMumbler]

You bet

[@Andrew-er5cf]

Well done sir!

[@vebelostotsky]

Very nice decision !

[@tonycunha1847]

Nice set up

[@jefferybarron929]

10,001 now lol

[@Kragothe]

real good video,given me a couple real good ideas for my crate :)

[@thereelangler2391]

This guy throws impressive shade at people who carry "extra" tackle. Get those people to a burn unit lol

[@robertbarnes5839]

Great job!! Loved your comment ....”It’s probably not the arrow but the Indian!” LOL!😂🤣. The simplicity and thought that went into it is great👍

[@martinlarkin9624]

Nice work. How did you anchor the 3" PVC to the crate and attach the drain cap

[@17fourU]

Look at the @9:11 time marker. It shows (on the top) that he used a bolt and nut to secure the tube to the crate. Probably same for the bottom of the tube.

[@martinlarkin9624]

@@17fourU thanks

[@robertchadwick1552]

Nice job building that & thanks for sharing your thoughts & process.

[@BringTheBeaver]

Very nice setup buddy. Definitely worth a watch! 👍🏻

[@LindenRanch]

First Prize. Definitely the best Kayak crate so far. The lid is frosting on the cake. 🎂

[@ksvance22]

How about selling yours!🙃..thxs for sharing .

[@guillermomichelgomezflores1408]

Which part of Dallas are you? I’m in Rockwall

[@garylhedrickjr6863]

Great job , great ideas thanks Hand.from Ohio.

[@markstephenson7050]

how did you mount the 3' pipe anchor storage??? very cool!!

[@libbyguidinger6212]

Always good to film in the shade of a tree to show something made entirely black

[@martintopp1399]

HI there. Great video with some really well thought out ideas. Greetings from NZ.

[@benthetec]

You’re right. This is the best kayak crate vid. I have a sea ghost 130 as well. I plan on stealing your ideas!

[@mechadebzilla]

Thank you for the well-thought design. Love the Texas regalia all over!

[@motodemon-qn9wx]

I like it, very nice and clean ....very doable thanks

[@jasonellison3086]

I like your low cost approach. Thank you very much for the information.

[@che-NY]

That crate looks just like mine, It's a great set up. The only issue I have is when the crate is in the back of my kayak, its very difficult to turn and lean back to grab anything out of the crate Rich

[@peterfagley772]

A very nice job, thank you for sharing!

[@tuyup1139]

Great video!!! I have a recreational kayak and i dont fish but your design is slick and cool

[@TonyNelsonCamping]

Cool setup indeed. Thanks for sharing.

[@jamesbanks8963]

Very nice. Best one I've seen yet. Some very good ideas there. My only suggestion would be a retractable anchor rope.

[@rickyhaynes1312]

Is it just me? what are the wheels for???

[@TheGoatMumbler]

So you can roll the kayak down to the water on your kayak dolly.

[@Edpalomares54]

Nice job! Wish I was that handy I would make one!

[@ecomed-davidhagan2996]

Great video my friend. From down under in Sydney Australia.
