A little about me:
I am James McBurnett. I live in the great state of Texas. Probably not where you would think, but I am located in the panhandle region. I moved here from Alabama and work as a Chemical Engineer in the area. After being here for a few years, I decided to get back to my roots as a fisherman. It is quite challenging in my area to find a body of water to fish. The closest lake to me is about 40 miles away.
After a couple more years, I realized how much I love fishing and wanted to share it with the world. Clearwater fishing was born. I wanted to teach people all about fishing. This includes rods, reels, fishing line, bait, lures, largemouth bass, crappie, walleye, catfish, bluegill, boats, boat trailers, outboards, and anything else related to fishing.
I also wanted to share my fishing experiences as well. To be entertaining, knowledgeable, comical, and FUN. This channel was created out of the love of the sport of fishing, and I plan to keep making content that represents that. Thank you for watching this video and reading a bit about me. Give me a shout out in the comments below and let me know you read this. Now get out there and go catch you some fish.
Equipment I use:
Truck 2018 Ram 2500 Laramie 6.7L Cummins
Boat 2019 Nitro Z21 with Mercury ProXS 250

    Just had to decide between hummingbird helix 7 chirp mega DI gps G4 and lowrance hook reveal 7 tripleshot with c-map contour+ card Decided to go with the tripleshot because it has side imaging and down scan and should be compatible with navionics charts...hopefully i didnt make a poor choice. Im upgrading from lowrance hook2 4x so it should still be an improvement. Mainly just need to see how deep fish are to get jig to correct depth(vertical jigging for salmon 20'-200'deep) Thinking the lowrance fish reveal thing should help me out quite a bit being new to fishfinders

    I have a Solix 10 MSi+ G3 on my 10' jon boat. Lol Apex, salt water, solix fresh. Ither than that, they are pretty much identical. Transdicers and everything is the same. Besides being able to connect that high powerd salt water transducer. Resolution is different but the immage is identical. Nore pixels for bigger screen. Thats it.

    Hi. I can't find any real guidance on the xi3 and whether it's truly limited to working with the lowrance and simrad for waypoint navigation. I now have the pwr129 and the xi3, and l'd like to know if Motorguide is just pushing those 2 makers, or it's really limited to them. I see garmin and hummingbird have NMEA2000 as well. Thanks in advance!

    After all this time i don’t understand why every keeps trying the same pitch and being disappointed in the performance. We know you need to reduce pitch when going to a 4 blade so the engine RPMs are where they belong. I finally saw another video where it was done right and the top speed ended up being the same.
