You guys changed my life 2 years ago. I've been fishing and enjoying the outdoors ever since. I'm a disabled veteran (USN), and I live in the Sonoran desert. You've encouraged me to venture out, buy a kayak a couple of years ago, and cast as much as I can on the few bodies of water we have. Thanks, guys. I mean it. You gave an old guy a new life. Please keep it up

You should seriously turn that thing into a camp on the water. Solar panel system, small fridge, AC system, bunk beds, a TV and gaming console, etc. If I were you, I also would have used construction adhesive to glue those 2x4's to the fiberglass, and then used screws on top of that as well. Those screws will very likely loosen over time because you didn't do this. You also could have built a frame out of Steeltek fittings, which would attach directly to the railing.

For future reference.....yes the cicadas are catfish heaven. Me and my dad went cat fishing 13 years ago with their emergence and caught hundreds of 3-4lbers. Immediately made plans for 13 years later and just did it again this past weekend and same thing. We even brought nets this time to scoop cicadas off the water to use as bait. So much fun.

The new decks are awesome. I always enjoy your videos with Daveygravy in them . Great video!

That sneeze in your hand segue to better help killed me, best segue ever.

The platforms are genius👍🏻Maybe you should install a railing on the water sides so you have something to hold onto and Gravy doesn’t fall off! Thanks for sharing! I love your videos🤩

Yes! Always pinkies out!🥳🥳🥳 I love me an Ayo video! Always delivering top notch content! Thank you brotha!😎

I'm blown away by how many didn't know this year was gonna be a banger cicada year out east. I'm in Cali and I've known it was coming since it started getting talked about last year. 2 broods, a 13 year brood and a 17 year brood, are emerging at the same time. Super rare bug event, guaranteed the fish knew it was coming.

would you ever do fishing livestreams?

Been going through some really dark times for the past 6 months. Started watching your videos again and not only did you make me laugh, you made me want to get back out on the water. Keep doing what you do! Thanks AYO

Fun episode. Really unique fishing experience. Gorgeous weather, the lake looks beautiful. Upper decks and ladder are excellent. Maybe an extended bow? Seems like you prefer clomping around in that area.

Love you guys. Can't wait to see you hit a million!

Once in a decade type catfishing!!!

I am so happy to see the upgrades and cant wait for more adventures! Fish-on!

Yunno, if you planned the carpentry a bit more, it would have resulted in a longer lasting platform that did not need to be screwed into the external railing (and thus not weakening it and introducing moisture accumulation points. For example by flipping the foot of he platform that was screwed into the metal so that the cut out corner is facing the water, and leaning it at an angle with a joint in the longer beams (or a cross beam), it would then naturally bite into the railing as you stand on it, opposed to that force always wanting to break away from it. EDIT- I take it back, he did think ahead. Stripping the screws so that no one can sneak in in the middle of the night and unscrew them is a big brain maneuver. That said, it came out looking super nice. Still partway through the video but I hope he weatherproofs the wood. 🤞

LIKE THE VIDEO YOU FRICKIN' LURKERS!

The video that every single person that even opened up KZread had been waiting for!

Top fishing and content. You were slaying it on the boat. Great idea with the decks

You should attach a kids slide to the side for safe release of fish…. And would be pretty cool exit from top deck !

Love it... you know I realized why I like your videos. You sound like Chris Farley sometimes, and you seem honest in your character! keep it up

Love your energy and authenticity. And it's wild seeing you catch catfish like that. Maybe my new fave vid! Yous are smashing it!

Yet another amazing video AYO! Keep them coming!

Your next project will be coming up with a long handled dip net. Back in the 80s and 90s we had to use a paint pole with a net attached because we couldn't find something commercially available. We made a lot of the things you commonly see in stores today. It was fantastic fishing when you had to make your own gear.

Best video in a long time. I love that vessel! Need more over nighters on it.

Heyy Ayo and Gravy, you got to love Gravy he's so funny, great upgrade on the boat you did good with the catfish next time remember your cooler, stay safe out there 😊

Dude I'm obsessed with this thing.. I fing love it. Sooo much

Awesome vid, your getting good at cracking fish yehhhh. Get all the boys out there

Y'all are crazy! Them are perfect fryers! 🤤.. Love what Y'all are doing on this channel. TY! 🤎🤍💙

I haven’t been this excited since the itty bitty project started. I love this channel seriously lol.

What a dream day. Had a similar day fishing for crappe with my dad a few years back. Reeling one in every 60-90 seconds. Its days like that that keep you coming back. Awesome video, I love that lifeboat's potential.

I think your next upgrade should be mesh netting for the entrances so you can have a breeze without getting ate up. Especially since you are pretty much turning it into a house boat. Add magnets to it and they should auto close behind you.

The updated decks are fantastic. Every time you feature Daveygravy in a video, I like it. Fantastic video!

Ayeeee man great vid keep it up! Don’t listen to the haters AYO!

Another good vid Ayo keep them coming bud its always something when Gravy is involved maybe a diving board or a slide next.
