Sobi, the man, the myth, the LEGEND!! We freaken LOVE your content man. You have inspired us to do what we do brotha. Keep grinding and fishing. Have an amazing summer, go crush em. Happy days!
Was at Spirit Lake - right next to Lake Okoboji last Friday (6/7). Caught my PB smallie that day....6lbr. Fished with my dad and my sons Ben and Noah. Making memories
This was so cool to watch. I love fishing okoboj. I've fished that lake 100s of times and know it very well. That lake can humble a guy real quick 😅. Great video!!
You nailed it with your overall description of boji. I live in Spirit Lake and fish all three lakes often. Rule of thumb is to be off of west by 10:30/11am before the wake and surf bros get out. Big fish to be had if you put the time in. Great video man!
I was the maintenance guy for 8 years at the condos you fished first on tournament day. Those docks are dynamite when the water is moving like that. Nice video, thanks for sharing.
Another great video. I love the Okoboji area. And that lake is crazy busy all day long. Did you happen to grab a donut from Spudnutz!! Best donuts around.
Okoboji is an awesome place but very very busy!! I basically grew up their as my grandparents had a cottage on the north point of west lake. Great video man!!
@@sobifishing you should see it on the 4th of July if you thought it was busy when you went it's way crazy then. Yeah May is the perfect time to go for pre spawn
Great job brotha! Sleeping in a storage shed love it lol! That's my style I often sleep on the deck of my boat or in my truck on overnight trips to save money
I think I saw you with the vex in Iowa at one point either the past 2-3 days or on the weekend, I saw one and I was like wow I wish I had that boat and then I realised just now that maybe that was you haha
Have you ever fished clear lake ia? We are lucky to have kevin Paul and clear lake bait and tackle. I think an interview type video with him would be sick.
Nutty, it doesn't stop being a canoe or a kayak because it has a motor on it today. Words do have meaning and Purist often is equated with Prude for a reason! We're talking about recreation buddy😂😂.
@@sobifishing I had a feeling, when I realized you were in northeast Iowa. Are ya soaking up any of that knowledge of them spooks? Aka giant whitetails lol how cool is that I remember listening to a podcast with chancy and he's on his boat ripping lips talking about big bucks.
I LOVE your content sobi. I feel like you put in too much effort to make your videos quality. I remember the fist time seeing your stuff the quality and the sub count didnt match up right. I watch a lot of youtube. Advice would be to film more often. Lower quality. Your personality and the fishing makes the content. Not the editing. Upload more often. Once a week at least. And your channel will explode.
The entire fishing community saw the guys who jammed weights in their fish get slaps on the wrist. Someone in this tournament saw that and most likely cheated.
The second you said it puts Tonka to shame I crossed this lake off my list for life. Tonka is the absolute worst on a nice Saturday. I can't imagine anything worse tbh!! Hate it
@sobifishing it's a round 20% per the Fisheries Biologist. People mistaken them for Muskie. Wish I could add a pic. The hatchery up there has 3 colors of Pike in area lakes.
@@sobifishing just at the mouths, ive never caught anything over a pound or two pushin that far back, but i will give this to you, i would still do it too😂😂😂

Thank you so much LFTL!!! Your positivity and energy fires me up, I hope you’re having a great summer!
This video and whole story is so well done Sobi! 🫡
Okoboji is a great lake. I caught a 7.39 lbs bass earlier this year in a tourney on that lake
Jeeeeeeeez 😳
Fishing flooded areas is always fun, great video as always!
Thanks Naspeltz!! Happy Days
A few years back when the water was high we would rip our jet skis around in the creek you were in lol. Funny to see someone fishing my hometown lake!
This lake has them!!! Watched a guy on east catch a 32# bag in early May, it’s busy but it’s really really good
Man got to give you props. Like the soundtracks you put on your vids. Fun to watch! :)
Thank you Sam for constantly putting out amazing content. I've been looking forward to this one for a while!
Thank you so much Hawkvision, I appreciate it!
Great story telling. Cant wait for more!
Thanks Kevin!!
Another great one Sobi! Love it!

Grats on top 20 finish! Have a few other buddies fishing that tour and rooting for all ya!
Thanks Veng!!

I did not grab any grub there! But next time I’m in that area I will 100% try it/ explore the town more.
Man I just want to spend one day in a boat with Sam Sobi. Nice work dude. Love your vids
That’s so awesome. I call them home waters and know those spots!! So cool to relate!!
That’s a really cool/ dynamic lake to call home! That’s awesome 👊
Its downfall is the amount of pleasure boaters but love fishing it on hard water.
Good finish can’t wait to see you at the next one
Okoboji is an awesome place but very very busy!! I basically grew up their as my grandparents had a cottage on the north point of west lake. Great video man!!
i’m from okoboji area… pretty cool to see you fishing here. Come back for ice fishing👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
That was a fun watch! Love your content!
How did I not see you!! Would have made my wife’s day.
Nice work Sob
Thanks Todd!
Great job Sobi! My home lake is Lake of the Ozarks so I know about busy!!
Nice job, Sam. By the pics it looks like Teal beat you to the creek in the first period.
He did!! We talked after the tourney and I was shocked he found that little creek too!
Awesome lake went there lots growing up and in college
Very cool/ dynamic fishery! I’d love to go there in May for some pre spawn bass and more walleye action!
@@sobifishing you should see it on the 4th of July if you thought it was busy when you went it's way crazy then. Yeah May is the perfect time to go for pre spawn
Awesome love it
Welcome to iowa good stuff man!
Camera Man= NO PFD? But Parker is the MAN! He may be good luck, but you still gotta catch'em
Happy Days Karp! Hope ur having a good summer!
Camera man wore his PFD the rest of the day, no doubt life jackets are a must.
So many other lakes around the area of okoboji I can show you as well. Go team blue!!!
Awesome fishery great video!
Great job brotha! Sleeping in a storage shed love it lol! That's my style I often sleep on the deck of my boat or in my truck on overnight trips to save money
I’m with ya! I sleep on the front deck often too
Next time you fish boji a must is the harbor.. you'll see the light houses. Big bass up in there
It was an awesome time in the boat with you m! Hope to see ya at Mille!
Awesome day with you too Patrick! GL to you the rest of the summer 🤘
Awesome time with you too Parker! GL to you the rest of the summer

Hey welcome to Iowa brother!! Next time let us know!! Come back soon!!
Always entertaining and new content. Keep driving
Thanks Erick!

I’ve fished Clear Lake with Kevin Paul wayyyyy back in the day! Kevin’s a beauty
Finally, I got to see the beer brand you drink. 😃
I was just in your neck of the woods, and I am missing it!!
I live less than 15 minutes away! Near the spillway in spirit lake fish hatchery there are far and crappie. Along with carp and drum!
Good stuff
I was born In Spirit Lake. Great kayak fishing
Needed to hit the ol marina docks.. a little secret 😁
No way you where in my back yard and I didn't even know you where here. Next time you have to hit me up Sam when your back in okoboji.
Man I have fished boji spirit and storm lake for 50 yrs. Great waters and people
Gotta come back and ice fish this year

Hey man if you see this as someone who lives in this area from my experience the bass love the red colored lures (especially senkos)
Omg I was the guy with the boat on the end by okaboji store😮😭
The silver thoooo!
First silver pike I’ve ever seen in person! Beautiful slimer
First one I’ve ever seen in person, freakin beautiful!
Thats my home lake I live about 5 minutes away from Emerson bay where you launched
Haha I live and do landscape in the area and at about 3:40 is I did the wall and patio in the background 😅
Are you staying with chancy walters from whitetail adrenalin?
YES!! Chancy is the freakin man
@@sobifishing I had a feeling, when I realized you were in northeast Iowa. Are ya soaking up any of that knowledge of them spooks? Aka giant whitetails lol how cool is that I remember listening to a podcast with chancy and he's on his boat ripping lips talking about big bucks.
Silver pike are very common in boji. Catch one abt every time I’m there
SobiWonKanobi, nice video
I caught a 47 inch 30 pound Muskie on the at same lake this year
🍻🍻

Youuuuu got it homie 😅🤘
Do you do any bait finesse fishing?
No but I’d like to get into some of that, hbu?
No but I’d like to get into some of that, hbu?
No i would really like to try it though.
nice video

Camera guys should have a pfd on
I live in Iowa

Def a Iowa strain muskie not a silver pike... can tell by the shape of the fins
Marshal wasn’t trying to move much was he,I’d a 😅told him to get the F out the way big boy
I boat marshaled that tourney
Dang - no life jacket for camera guy 😮
The entire fishing community saw the guys who jammed weights in their fish get slaps on the wrist. Someone in this tournament saw that and most likely cheated.
I am just here to catch a glimpse of Willert's beautiful face
Get in linnnnnnnne son
The second you said it puts Tonka to shame I crossed this lake off my list for life. Tonka is the absolute worst on a nice Saturday. I can't imagine anything worse tbh!! Hate it
If you go during the week or early in the season then it's not bad at all.
Silver Pike are very very common up there and the surrounding lakes.
That’s so cool there is a thriving population around that area!
@sobifishing it's a round 20% per the Fisheries Biologist. People mistaken them for Muskie. Wish I could add a pic. The hatchery up there has 3 colors of Pike in area lakes.
Lol no way theres a big bass back in this creek…
Welcome to Iowa brother, very boring😂
Fun video to watch, but for gosh sakes adjust your drag.
pro tip, there are no big bass in creeks, only rivers and run offs
Commmmme on Jake, you ain’t nevvvvva caught a bigggen in a little creek that runs into a larger body of water 🐳
@@sobifishing just at the mouths, ive never caught anything over a pound or two pushin that far back, but i will give this to you, i would still do it too😂😂😂
