In todays video the Grizzly finally gets the Pond Prowler 8 back out on the water. Oh, and we have made some upgrades. Fish finder Garmin Striker 4 with transducer, 55lb thrust Minnkota Trolling motor, and showing some of the old mods in more depth because all of your questions. The video is long but it has all you want to know in it from what we put into it and how we mounted and attached everything. Then the Grizzly takes the Prowler out on Pena Blanca Lake and tests out the new mods and catches some fish. Thanks for being here.

Nice to see you get the install of the Striker 4 up and running. Too bad about the trolling motor, but glad you got it all together in the end.

@GeekGeezerFishing 10 месяцев назад

Yeah. The trolling motor was a bummer, but glad how everything turned out!! Thanks for the continued support!!

I'm thinking about getting one of these. I like what you've done with it, the platform is especially cool.

@GeekGeezerFishing 2 месяца назад

Yeah I watched a few video reviews on this boat and yours so far is the best. Even though you were wearing your wife’s shorts and shoes, they kinda matched. Really enjoyed you taking your time to show us the mods including the handle issue. Super helpful! The biggest piece for me was that you actually took the time to video yourself having a great time doing what we enthusiast love….. Fishing. Looks like you had fun brother! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much for watching!! Glad you enjoyed the video. Despite the wardrobe choices. Lol

Just got a 10' prowler for the fam. Close to the same setup except I have the 45 thrust. We are right in the middle of tons of lakes to hit. We are all very excited. Great video, really like the chapters.

@rayhemmele4915 10 месяцев назад

That scotty xducer mount is designed to go on a horizontal surface! I so badly wanted to stop you from drilling those holes!

@grizzlywithgeekgeezerfishi1622 10 месяцев назад

Dang, I wish you could have, haha. I had no idea I was going to mount it at the top, but I didn't think it would make it into the water even though it seems so close 😅.... well, next time, this was trial and error... thanks for watching ❤

@GeekGeezerFishing 10 месяцев назад

Appreciate your input. Thanks for watching.. 🙏

@grizzlywithgeekgeezerfishi1622 10 месяцев назад

Really wish someone would've stopped me from pulling out that trolling motor handle 😢

@bmbelectricllc7940 8 месяцев назад

Like your video, may I add that you should lose silicone when drilling the holes I have one too, had a few years and water will get in.

@GeekGeezerFishing 8 месяцев назад

yea, I super appreciate your input. I have gone back and done that, and plastic welded the old holes back up. Thanks for watching and caring enough to reach out.

Fellow tucsonian I've got a 10.5 ft bass hound all set up with graph, 40 pd trust troller and a 2.3 hp gas motor also. even installed a custom canopy on it. Bad little boat gets me on the water pretty much everywhere. I have a small 4×6 ft trailer that I don't use anymore I can sell you for cheap if you're interested

@GeekGeezerFishing 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching hope you find that boat a hone. Trailer separately from boat?

@a.jaxzun7938 10 месяцев назад

Bass hound for sale?

@christophergolding4823 10 месяцев назад

No I'm not selling my boat or it's trailer. But I do have a early 2000's 4 ft by 6 ft trailer I don't use anymore i'd sell for $200 that would be perfect for that pond prowler. Or hell I'd give it to you for a day on the lake with some like minded peeps.

@christophergolding4823 10 месяцев назад

@@GeekGeezerFishing yes trailer is separate not selling my boat or trailer , but I have one I don't use anymore would fit that bad boy perfect.

@paulgargano6026 8 месяцев назад

What wire connection kit trolling motor to jumper cable are you using and where did you buy it?

@GeekGeezerFishing 8 месяцев назад

So I went to an electrical supply house, and I got a direct burial connection. Once I tightened and heat shrunk it, I think it's water tight enough.... it is not marine grade but figured it is better than electrical tape.

@monzsterman 26 дней назад

So what was the initial reason the trolling motor didnt work before you destroyed it?

@GeekGeezerFishing 26 дней назад

Haha... great question...As far as I know it worked before I pulled out the handle. I never even tested it before I pulled out the handle it was brand new. I was simply pulling out the handle Because I thought you could pull out that handle.But I found out when you remove that handle.It actually smashes internal components which I was on aware of. And I thought I would share it with people even though it makes me look a little stupid. But that way no one else makes that same mistake.

Is Parker Canyon Lake still open?

Yes. There was a bass tournament there last weekend

The video: The fishing part 👍👍 when it comes to the repairs though 👎👎 Again otherwise good job. Sincerely! R.S.V.

@GeekGeezerFishing 6 месяцев назад

Appreciate your feedback 👍

@JerseyFishing20 4 месяца назад

I thought the wires were already pre ran on those boats so you don’t have to run a cable all the way to the back

@GeekGeezerFishing 4 месяца назад

They do have a plug there but I don't have anything to plug into it? I suppose you could buy a plug and wire the trolling to that. Great idea. The guy I bought the prowler from said that plug was to plug in lights so I didn't even think about it as an option for the trolling. Thanks for your comment and question. Tight lines 🎣.
