the top 10 highest paying technology related careers. That is what we're going to talk about today. This is based off of data that I collected on glassdoor.com. These are going to be common careers. The really rare ones out there where there's like, you know, maybe a couple hundred of them in the entire world, obviously not enough people report those onsites like glassdoor or indeed.com. So I won't be including those, but this will likely give you a very good idea of some of the top paying careers in what is probably the best industry that you could possibly work in in the entire world. If you appreciate videos like that, go ahead and gently tap that like button, hit the subscribe button, ring the notification bell, and comment down below any thoughts, comments, criticisms. And the best possible thing you can do is share this video with other people because I don't have a big marketing team like universities do, so I'm not able to get the truth out there. So that being said, let's go ahead and jump right into it right away with one of the careers that's probably the easiest to get into at the entry level and that is technology sales. And specifically the type of technology sales is going to be business to business. So you're not gonna be selling to individual people, not gonna be one of those sales jobs where you're just approaching random people out in public or anything like that or you're being like kind of a sketchy used car salesman sort of thing. You're basically building relationships with companies that you might sell your technology products to. Now this is one of my favorite careers I've talked about it several times on the channel, not gonna be the best choice for everybody because let's be honest, not everybody wants to do sales, but this is one of those careers where you can make really good money right off the bat. We're talking something like 70, 80,000 even more in your first year. This is one of the only careers I know of out there where you can switch into it without a college degree, certification or prior experience within a month or two. So yes, you've heard that right. You can literally get a job within a month or two where you can make 70 to 80,000 and even more your first year. And I'm gonna be interviewing somebody on the channel pretty soon. It may already be out by the time this posts because I typically put interviews first, but he makes over $500,000 a year doing tech sales. Okay, so you can make really good money right off the bat. There's a lot of room for vertical growth and the best thing is nobody knows a company's customers better than the people who sell to them. So that means there's a lot of different positions that you could potentially move into after you've become a really good tech sales person. Now my friend Troy, who I interviewed on the channel actually trains people in tech sales and I'll put that interview like right up here. I think it's like right here. And I also interviewed Abdul on the channel who was able to get a tech sales job and make over $70,000 in their first year. And I'll also put that up right here if YouTube lets me. If you're interested in tech sales, you wanna learn more about it or how people are getting jobs in like one to two months which is just completely unheard of. You can check out Troy's free training which I will put down in the description below as well as the pinned comment. And if you decide to use his service because he actually gets you interviews himself with these companies that are looking for tech sales people, he's sort of like a middleman between the tech sales talent and the companies as well as training you, then you can use my coupon code which is Shane 50. I will also put that down in the description and the pinned comment. Next one on the list, number nine is going to be an information security engineer. And this is somebody who oversees an organization's IT security activity. And this is also somebody who typically has a good amount of experience in either IT cybersecurity or preferably both. And you can expect to make about $131,000 a year. Number eight on the list is one of my favorite careers. It's one of my favorite types of software development careers specifically. And that is DevOps engineer. So software development, software engineering is a relatively new field. And if you look at these fields like lawyer, doctor, et cetera, almost all of them tend to branch out into certain specialties and some specialties make a lot more money than others. And typically not only do they make a lot more money but on top of that they usually have better lifestyle, they're more sought after and they're more respected. Now it's going to be interesting to see which specialties stand out when it comes to software development and software engineering, but I would not be surprised if DevOps engineering is one of them. And the reason for that is because your whole job as a DevOps engineer is to get stuff launched as fast as possible so that you can save the company time and money. And you're basically kind of like half information technology and half software developer. And you can expect to make about $141,000 a year on average. Next one on the list is going to be a computer and information systems manager. And you're basically going to be helping a company to make sure their IT infrastructure meets the business's goals. Now this is not an entry level job, you'd typically have to have some experience in IT. But you can expect to make about $142,000 a year with this one. Next one on the list is actually relatively similar and that is going to be a technical program manager. So with this one, you're also going to be working on an organization's IT structure, but you're usually going to be working on new projects. So when an organization is rolling out a new project, they're obviously going to need some IT infrastructure and they're going to need somebody to kind of design that. And so this is typically what you would be doing as a technical program manager. And with this job, you'd expect to make about $145,000 a year. Next one on the list, number five is a really cool one and that is going to be blockchain engineer. And this is going to be basically a software developer that specifically works with cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. So you'd be working with something like Ethereum or Ripple or Solana. And as you can imagine, cryptocurrency is huge right now. It's only going to get bigger in the future. There's so much exciting stuff coming out with the metaverse and Web 3.0. And you know, it is going down right now just like it did in 2017, but it's probably going to rebound and there's going to be a ton of opportunity in the future. And here pretty soon, they're even going to be coming out with some projects that have some practical use cases, hopefully. So yeah, really exciting stuff. They get paid on average about $150,000 a year. Just ridiculous. Number four on the list is going to be a software developer manager. And this is somebody who oversees other software developers. So you do have to have some sort of familiarity with software development yourself.  And you can expect to make about $153,000 a year in this job. Number three on the list is going to be executives in general, but specifically I'm going to talk about the chief information officer. This is one of the highest positions that you can get into in the tech career. And depending on the company you work for, you can make a ridiculous amount of money in this position because it is an executive type position. And basically you are going to oversee the organization's entire information technology infrastructure. So you have to have a very good understanding of the business side of things as well as the information technology side of things. And in this position on average, you can expect to make about $161,000 a year. But if you work for certain companies, you can definitely clear well over $500,000 a year. Next one on the list is another pretty high level position. And that is going to be a marketing or sales director. Now the truth is in order to have a successful company, you have to have customers that buy your products. And how do customers buy your products? They either buy it through marketing or sales. So at the end of the day, all this other stuff is great. You know, you have to build infrastructure and you have to make sure everything's maintained and you have to make sure everything is safe and all that. But at the end of the day, if you wanna have a successful company, you have to have people buying your products or services. And that is gonna happen because of sales or marketing. Now one of the highest positions that you can get to is a marketing or sales director position. And marketing directors, for instance, on average in the US make about $184,000 a year. But it really does depend on the company that you work for. So for instance, there are marketing executives out there that make over $9 million a year like Jeremy Burton did last year. He made about 9.6 million. And then number one on the list is gonna be no surprise. It's going to of course be the CEO of a company in the technology industry. Now CEOs typically make about $241,000 a year on average, but you see a lot of outliers. For instance, Chad Richardson is the CEO of Paycom and he made $211 million last year. Elon Musk is the CEO of Tesla and he made over $6 billion. And if you take into account stock options and how much equity they have in their company, many CEOs make even more than that. So for instance, people estimate Elon Musk made over $100 billion last year, although he recently lost a lot of that net worth. So yeah, being a CEO in the industry that has the most opportunity out of just about any industry out there can be quite lucrative as you could imagine. Now some people become CEOs by starting their own company. That's probably the most common option. Others will actually work their way up into a company and then when the CEO quits or retires or whatever, they will take their place. So yeah, definitely check out my interview with Abdul, who's in tech sales and made about $70,000 over 70,000 his first year.

Hey there friends, how's it going? My name is Kevin and today we're going to be playing some rust. Big craze at the moment. Everyone's playing it with each other. And I'm playing it by myself. Let's get started. Ah! It's the Among Us craze all over again. Everyone's having a good time together and I'm having a good time with myself. That doesn't sound great. Even in context it's bad, but out of context if I'm just like, hey, I'm just having a good time playing with myself. Doesn't sound good, don't quote me on that. My God, are these actual players? This is how many people play this game? What? I thought there was like, I don't know, 20 player servers or something like that. I didn't realize there could be this many people in a game. You're sleeping.  Wake up, wake up. Oh, I was just waking up in the game. Alright, let's censor the nudity. That's right, you're not getting it, alright? This is the wrong place if you're looking for smut. There are other websites for that. I hear someone coming towards me and I don't like the splashing around the place. I just sort of set up my mic. Well, I spawned with a feckin lighthouse.  I can see them jumping around. They're shooting at each other. Let me try and talk my way into their little tribe. Hello, can you hear me? I'm friendly. Hello, friendly minus the friends, but I could use you as my first friend. Not that I'd be using you, you're like we'd benefit each other in our friendship and the treasured memories we'd make along the way. What do you say, buddy? You want to be friends?  Whoever's up the lighthouse, there's two naked people running at you with rocks. Wait, hold on, not me, not me, I'm nice. No, I said I'm nice! Well, turns out maybe I shouldn't have ratted them out. It didn't help that I said there's two naked people running up the stairs at him and I was all so naked. It's like me seeing a robbery and it's like, it was the pale dude, get him! Everybody get him! Hey buddy, what are you doing? Oh, that's what you're doing. All right, yeah, just beat me to death. Honestly, it's welcome at this point. I love rust. I'll find a friend eventually, it's only a matter of time. It seems like we're all spawning on the same beach and this... Oh god, I'm gonna hide before he does to me again. Look at him go. It's Santa Claus, probably coming to beat me to death like everyone else is doing. This is basically like a team deathmatch. What happened to you? I found the mummy, but Brendan Fraser is nowhere in sight. What is going on? Hey, watch your six. I'm coming up behind you, but I'm friendly. Look, yeah, this is me. I'm friendly. So, okay, you're shooting at me anyway. That's great. I'm new here. Give me a chance. Oh, presents for all of us. That's nice. I got a present. Awesome. All right, and I heard you take a swing at me so you're obviously not happy. It's the season of giving naked dude following me with a rock. Dude, honestly, we're both gonna die. Is that what you want? We're both gonna die on these cliffs. Please stop chasing me. Help, help, help, help.   I got a present for you. Don't hit me. Don't hit me. I'm nice. I'm so nice.   Hey, dude, I just spawned. What's up? Okay. All right, you know what I think I need?  All right, here we go. Different reality. I just woke. Fantastic. Hey, friend. Hey, buddy. Naked dude. It's me, another naked dude. Do you want to be friends? We have so much in common. Why are you running from me? Just another naked person running away from me in the forest.  Talk about me, by the way. I'm also naked just running down the street. Oh, Karen, I can push it. That is awesome. Oh, you can get inside. That is so cool. I can open the little window. I mentioned the owner came back and it's just like, yes.  Oh, you can even do the driver windows. That is so cool. I just wish I knew how to get out. Then it would be really epic. Anyone wants to hang out? I'm new. Solo only. You can't do that here. But I'm dying to a chicken.  How embarrassing. Okay, so you can't make friends on this server. You're not allowed to play with friends. You have to be solo. That's not going to do it for me. I need someone to take care of me and feed me. I'm pretty useless by myself. Oh, someone just spawned in here.  We need to get out of here. All right. Just beat me to death. Then that's fine. And off they go. They were kind of nice at least. Like, I've not come across anyone who didn't beat me to death yet. So just hitting me once and then letting me go. You're kind of on the top tier of friends already. Oh, look at this loot. Yes, I'm getting really good at rust. I found some food like an apple.  Low-grade fuel. Miners hat. A miner hat? Put that on. Yes, I'm not naked anymore. Oh wait, no. I just threw it on the floor. Getting loads of loot here. This is awesome. Another miner's hat. Okay, maybe it's not as rare as I thought they were. But I found a nice cave to live in. That's shiny. It looks like it should be important. Let me see if I can craft an axe or a pickaxe even. Sorry. I've played Minecraft. I know what the tools do. I can use this rock instead. There we go. I'm getting sulfur. Pretty cool cave though. Oh, really cool cave. Me likey. Finding lots of miners helmets. I better be careful. I'm not allowed near miners. This is all new to me. I don't remember this stuff. A flashlight. Now you're talking. Look at this. Oh my God. This is so cool. I'm not going to be able to get out of here, am I? I don't actually like this anymore. This is like the point where there may be no return for me. I might just die here. I found a pickaxe though. Yeah, there's no way for me to get out of here.  Can I jump across here? It doesn't look like it. I'm appealing for help in the chat. Oh, yes. Yes. Oh my God. I'm so good at paracord. That honestly seemed like one in a hundred of the odds of me actually doing that. Please let me out. Oh, I thought that was the exit for a second. I'm going to need some sulfur. Oh, this is metal ore.  Something useful. Me no want. Hold on.  Wait, do I need a can opener or something? Oh no, I can just eat it. Okay, there you go. I mean, I do have my pickaxe to be fair. It's out to a bar of chocolate as well. It's been a tough old day, so there we go. Treat myself. I don't suppose I can get out in this thing. I can get out.  Oh yeah, I'm naked. I forgot. I look down. Yes! Oh, I'm so happy I actually got out. That really felt like that was going to be the end of me. Now I have loot, though. I have something to lose. I'm afraid of people. Little did Kevin know he wasn't out of the woods yet. Still more cave, but I think this is doable. That took me up a long way. Is that a light? I could have sworn I saw a light. It's coming in here. How do I scare them? Okay, hopefully that worked. They're like, oh my God, there's some sort of cave. Neanderthal down here. Maybe I should do that. Just roleplay as a Neanderthal the whole time. If anyone comes near me, just start grunting and screaming. I've always maintained that is the best way to protect your home. Like if someone starts breaking into your house, I think if you drop down all fours, bound it down your stairs just screaming, like they're going to run away because they're going to be so scared.  I'm so happy. Oh, I got hemp seeds. I know what business I'm starting. I don't know if this is like a standard starter rust or if I've got incredibly lucky. Like it feels like I found some really cool stuff. Maybe the mines always just have really cool stuff. I don't know. All right, I just need some stone and I can make myself an axe. Can I just mine it? Like any stone, I wonder. No, not that. I guess I'll look for some sort of deposit. Oh, that kind of looks, I don't know, harvestable. I have no idea what I'm doing. Oh, I can just pick that up. Okay, interesting. I just need another 50 stone and then I'm good. I can make the axe. Yes. Okay, I got stones now. Craft. Wait, never mind. I need more wood. Okay, back to work. Oh, that tree just came down. Oh God, I got to be careful here though. Hello. How are you? I'm friendly. Wait, come back. Come back. I'm friendly. I'm friendly. I'm new here. I'm all so naked. What have you made? Why are you running? Come back to me. Come back and be my friend. He's really terrified. This is why I have no friends. The hell animal is that? Is that a horse? He has a horse? Wait, I want to be your friend, please. That guy looks so cool too.  Just screaming at him. I hear him. I wonder if that's his house. I'm just waiting for like a tree to fall and then I can see where he is. I'll force my friendship on him. I feel like I'm the bad guy. I like stalking this dude. Okay, finally make an axe. Craft it. Now you're talking. Now I'm getting double what I was getting and it seems to be faster too. Gotta keep an eye out. I know from experience that that brings in the crazies when they see a tree falling. They just run at it. Wait, how do I have so much metal ore? Oh my God, I have 865. I got to get back to that cave and just live there. I think I actually got to get out of the open. I feel like I have stuff to lose now and I can kind of see why that guy was scared because you're taking a risk.  Oh, that guy asked me did I get out. That's nice. I got out still looking for friends though. Oh Jesus. Oh God. Oh no. Gunfire run. Back to the caves. Where actually are the caves? I'm tempted to actually live in them. Oh, I think those are the caves. Okay. I'm like super invested now. I don't want to die. I've gotten so much stone. Look at all this. I've got like 2000 stone. Yes. This is the place. This is the place. Okay. I just made a blueprint. I don't know what it does. But I'm trying to build a house. All right. I got a stone little base there. This is going to be a nice little cabin in the woods. Ah, here we go. Okay. So I can build a wall. So wall. Build that. That. That. And then I want a doorway. I have enough low grade fuel to make a furnace. This is so cool.  Like building what I don't need. But I'm new. Okay.  Great. That's a stone. Upgrade that to stone. It's cozy. I'll give it that much. It's lovely.  It's so small. It should be easy to heat. I got a little sleeping bag there. Placing this will give you a location to respawn. That is just fantastic news. Please don't kill me. I'm just going to place a bed. I'm so scared. I can totally understand that man's fear now. Especially when I was screaming at him. Like some sort of ape man. Or a big foot. Now we need a roof. Let's see. Roof. Roof. There we go. A hat for your house. That's what we're talking about. There we go. That's all stone. It's so dark now. Wait. Is that even stone? That doesn't look like stone. Oh my God. No. Oh my God. How could you do this to me?  Really? I was so happy in my little heart. And now he's taking everything from me. Please. Leave my stuff. I'm new. Yeah. That didn't work.  Oh, I was so invested. All right. Well, I actually spawned relatively close. So while I probably can't get my stuff back, at least I can go to my house. And I'd used a lot of the materials actually building the thing. So it's not too bad, I guess. I can go back into the mine trying to get some tools. You are very cold. Wear heavier clothing or light a campfire. Like, I just didn't even know what clothing is. I literally just entered the stone age. And then someone with a gun and a full suit of armor showed up. Couldn't ugabuga my way out of that one, I'm afraid. My little home. Oh, look how nice it looks. Please don't have taken all of my stuff.  They didn't take my stuff. Thank you so much, random stranger in a tin can. Honestly, you probably looked at my stuff and just went... Pathetic. And just kept walking. I used there a full suit of armor. And I have, like, beans and a flashlight. Maybe it was the stench that put him off. He did take some of my stuff, I think. But it wasn't, like, a horrible amount. And he left that too. Ah, God bless him. That was nice of him to be fair. He could have taken it all just to screw me. Can I take this inside? If I'm cold, they're cold. Oh no, he's right there with the gun. Hey, I'm new. I'm a bit of a Neanderthal. You mind not killing me?  Please don't have taken my stuff, dude. This game is terrifying.  It's so scary.  Took all my stuff. Hey, dude, you mind giving me back my stuff? I don't have much and I'm new. Or just kill me. Okay, thanks. Aw, man. He's even taking it from my inventory. I can see them all going out. That is so sad. It's the same guy as before, man. He's obviously threatened by me. Oh my God.  Really, man? You had to go that far, didn't you? Reminds me of Ned Flanders. Did you have to salt the earth so nothing would ever grow again? Oh no. No, no, no. Dude, I've had enough trouble already today. What are you?  Always following me. Please, dude, I died to a chicken already. This is just bullying. All right, well, at least that wasn't too bad to kill. That must be how easy it was for them to kill me. Just some helpless animal. Oh no. Oh no, no, no, no. I don't want to fight. I don't want to... I'm going to die, aren't I? All right, okay, good. I'm going to live to... Rock. Yes. I think this is someone else's house.  It was probably like their dog or something now. It wasn't even a wolf. Stone pickaxe. Awesome. Hello, anyone in there? I'm your neighbor. I'm friendly now. Are you here? I don't know. I have to have that accent. It's the least threatening accent I have. Oh, beanie hat. Awesome. Oh, cool. Oh wait, did I just throw it down? I think I just threw it down. I lost my beanie. Okay, well that was short lived happiness. Oh, I lit myself on fire.  All right, I got my little pickaxe. I'm going down to get some stone and hopefully finish off my little base. That would be just lovely. The problem is I'm genuinely worried I won't be able to get past that wooden bit again, where I had to jump over it. A nice axe. Yes, that's awesome. I love the caves in this game. They're really cool. Yes, I made it past it. Okay, perfect. I don't think I looted much down here because I was too scared and I was just trying to get away. So this could be good. I could find some good stuff down here. I think I'm most devastated over the furnace because that took a lot of resources to make. Which way did I come? God, I'm lost. Well, I finally found some stone. Might be able to make a door for my house. That's the main thing I want to do. I just want to seal it up so it's kind of safe. 800. Awesome. Okay, I think that's enough. There. That's lovely. Now, can I make a door? Do I absolutely need metal fragments? I might actually need them. 150. That means I need a furnace. Oh, this is hard. Do I have enough? I took some out of my hat and I crafted some with animal fat. Oh my God, I'm getting so good at video game. I just need wood. And for that, I have an axe. Awesome. Furnace. Yes. Okay, I'm back on track. I just need to get the metal done and build my roof. Oh my God, that is a disaster. I didn't calculate it out well. It looks like one of my roofs in the Sims. There we go. Now all I need is...  All I need is my furnace set up and then I can make a metal door hopefully soon. You can actually gather stuff quite quick if you finish off the whole resource. I'm burning metal away here with loads of wood. This is great. Dude, please don't kill me. Please don't kill me. I'm friendly dude, chill. Cheers. Oh, thank God. Thank you very much.  It's got like a one in ten success rate. Wait a second. These weren't here a while ago. Were they? Do they just spawn in randomly? Oh, that's helpful. Does that mean stuff in the cave might be back? Ooh. A little bit, a little bit.  What is this? Is this some weird hot air balloon or something? I guess that's just for loot? That is so cool though. I've turned it on. Wait, hold on. This is bad. I don't know how to fly this. Why am I doing this? It's flying away. Okay, goodbye hot air balloon. You and I aren't so different, you know. We're both full of hot air. I hope that wasn't anyone's hot air balloon because I just sent it into orbit. It's gonna find its own way home, I assume. It's one of those self-driving hot air balloons. Oh God, there's someone there. That's probably the guy from earlier. He's probably nice, but I'll just keep my distance anyway. But the problem is, I think I might actually die of thirst. A term? I need that for water collector. All right, that's something. That's something. I like how I find my home by the skull that's marked on it because I've died here twice already. Okay, that's just enough. Okay, craft. Craft, craft, craft. Metal door. Yes. Craft. Yes. Yes. Okay, now can I put this door or this on it? Yes. Lock. Okay. It's locked. Wait, why is it just opening? Is that just because it's me? I'm safe. I feel safe. I'm sure people could get in here if they really wanted to, but the house is so crappy. Surely they wouldn't waste their supplies, right? All right. Other than the fact that I'm really dehydrated, this has gone super well. I think we're gonna leave it there, though. If you want to see more rust, let me know because I'll continue from here and we'll immediately go get some water. Game seems super fun, though. I've never really gotten into it, but I'm super invested already, so I hope you want to see more. Thank you very much for watching. I appreciate it, and I hope to see you tomorrow. Bye for now.


Let's come here on the Savannah River. Let me start off with a frog. Daddy Van Dam's using a chatter-donk. We're gonna see what we can get into. We were on the beach here earlier. It wasn't it. I think we could have caught them good, but we'd have to wait like three to four hours for that water to get right. Now this wasn't wanting to wait that long. It's like you're just killing time, kind of hitting random stuff and we're not really fishing productive. I'd rather come out here on the Savannah River, which I haven't been to in a while. Like the Ogichi, it's been about five to six months. I've only gone one time and then out here it's been, it's been a few longer than that. It's probably been seven months. So we're gonna see what we can get going today. See if we can get a few fish. The weather's actually really nice. The sun's finally peeking through the clouds.  We're mainly gonna be fishing a lot of this cover. Especially this tide being out going tide. We're about halfway through it. Some of these fish just are moving out to this main river. What was that? Turtles? Dude, I couldn't tell you the last time if there's pads on this thing. That would be cool to catch a frog fish. All this is really good, yeah. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do. I'm gonna throw a spinner rig guys, give it a little shot, bump it off some of these lay-downs. You guys are wondering about the Watertemp 72. Down in Florida last week, it was between 80 and 85. Really? That's probably a mosque is getting on it. That bite was insane. Don't come off as a good one too. That distracted me, do whatever to the left. It hit it at the same time.  That's a good bass on the frog guys, look how fat. That's a fat, dude. Look at that. Wow, I didn't mean to splash you, you all right? Bro, look at that fish. That's a stubby guy, ain't it? Look at that, guys. On a frog, I tied it on. Just to kind of play around today, and I don't know, first fish of the day on the Savannah River, we've been out here for what, 10 minutes? And a freaking good one on a frog, that's exciting.  That is literally a two and a half pound fish in a one pounders body, that's insane. Whatever, I did the same thing you did. You heard that blow up on the left, and I looked at you, but as I was looking, dude, he just, I was afraid I was gonna lose him. That looks monty. What's going up there that deep? Do you think there that deep up there? Yeah. I mean, I'm not saying you gotta be that deep, but those fish are hooked up on that, especially the cypress trees. I didn't even cut the legs on the same dude, I was gonna cut them, neither would I. Let's see if we can get one of these pads, guys. I would be so happy to get on a frog bite. Honestly, like the pads don't even look good to me, like in my opinion. Up on that, where that wood meets, the bank is better in my opinion. We'll hit this left side a little bit, and then we'll go in the back and hit just a few spots. We'll go to a good spot. Look how that skirt flared out. Guys, I probably shouldn't be throwing this frog, but I think I could catch a fish or two on it. I just think I can definitely have already had some more fish in the boat last time, so I'm fishing. But it was a good fish that ate it. And I think I could definitely get another bite, man, it's just a lot of fun. Love frog fishing.  Right where he should have been. He's about to pull all my rod out of my hand. I had to lean up on him, he was stuck in those trees.  Oh my goodness. I'll tell you, they're eat. Little tiny one, second fish of today.  He's fat, dude. All right, big C, your turn. This is what we're having to do right now to steer. Not the best way to get to spots, but we're doing what we gotta do. Trying to get big Steve on a fish before we fix this trolling motor. Oh, that was a big mud fish. He hammered the heck out of me, broke me right off, guys. First cast on this new spot. See how clean that is, dude? He went one hard time, he felt huge. Oh, gosh, he hammered the mess out of it. Throw in there, dad. That was the craziest bite he should've used. Oh, oh, throw in there, throw in there. Reedudy must've been looking at it because right when I reeled it, yeah, yeah, you're money. I don't think I stuck him either, dude, you didn't. Yeah, look, look at his teeth marks behind my bait. That was a good bite, dude. Come on, get this fish. I was working on the bottom all of a sudden, I reeled it, dude, and he just went, dunh, so I was just kind of dragging him. Oh, yeah, yeah, he did. Bro, what is going on here? Guys, I don't know what happened in the last 15 minutes, but we've had probably six, seven bites. But we're in the right spot, we just gotta capitalize here. They're not eating it right there, they're just slamming it and then they just don't hold on to it for something. Oh, big one, oh my gosh, it's just a mudfish. That scared me, dude. I thought you had like a six, seven pounder. Oh my gosh, when the mouth came up, I was not expecting that. I haven't fished out in so long. Hey, you got your first fish.   And these guys I do not bring in the boat, no mudfish in the boat. I thought you had a big bass for a second there. My thing's nasty. I'll fix your bait for you, so I'm not touching it. I'll pinch your hook a little bit. You want a lease of fish? But hey, listen, we've had a tough little day, just the trolling motor and everything, but we're still getting some fish. We're still getting some bites. We had a lot of bites down that other bank and I don't know what happened. We're gonna move here in a second. There are a couple more. Probably go off on this other side or a bend. Yeah, this is the stuff I'm doing right now. I'm trying to get my bait on, how I'm gonna, you got one? Oh, he's running at you, catch up on him.  That was a huge war mouth. I was like, what are you? Yeah, we're doing a bunch of bass today. Hey, you're doing a Savannah River slam.  Look how pretty that fish is. Yeah, isn't that crazy? Look at that. See how chunky he is? Yeah. I bet that'd be good eating. You see like the red on his fins too? He's pretty. Every fish that we've caught today, like the bass, the mudfish, look at the belly on that thing. Like that's just, that was insane.  Look at that one in the distance, dude. Look how I'm coming. I'm calling him in, you see that? Look how I'm swimming. You like that? Look at how fast he's going. It's all something proper. Look at him, he's coming along. You see that? Dude, what in the world? I got a freaking nice one. I don't know, he's running. No, it ain't. What is that? That's a bass.  Watch out, watch out, watch out. Dude, I'm talking giant. Oh! That's five pounds. I can't even believe that just happened. Dude! Can't even believe that just happened. Playing around. Dude, the frog is what's on. Wow. What's a big one, dude? I was looking at the gator and you were like, whoa, when I looked up, my frog was gone. Well, I saw something chase bait, so I was like, I'm gonna throw that. That's a freaking giant, guys. Freaking giant. That's Savannah River toad. Geez. When he came up next to the boat, it looked like a mudfish, but the colors of them were green. Yeah, the color was just weird, like walked out. Maybe I need to throw that frog more. I literally threw it out there, I was just... I wasn't even watching, I was looking at the gator. The gator was starting to come over because he saw my frog and I was just popping it and then you said something, I looked up and there was a huge splash. That was crazy. Holy cow, guys. That was crazy, guys. Maybe we need to throw the frog a little bit more. It's something that I won't throw on the Savannah River often. And I've caught two fish on it today, one being like a solid two and a half pounder and the other one being like a five. Like, that's some big Savannah River fish.   Nah, they won't. I mean, we threw in the, we threw a bunch of Texas rigs and we got a ton of bites, but nothing that would like really hold on to it much. You know, I only caught that one on it and then he had had some mudfish and... But I don't know, we're not really able to fish how we really want to. The trolling motor, like, I didn't really shoot y'all, but the cable snapped. So I literally just gotta, I gotta manually do it. So that's what him, I was like a little crank bait or a square bill would be money down this bay. But I didn't want to throw it because it's like, I'm always reaching down and trying to throw it. I want to throw a little bit more. I want big Steve to catch a few. I'm just gonna kind of mess around with this. Don't get him. Pulled him out of the slot. Pulled him out of the forest.  Hey, that's the risk you gotta take to get the bites.  Wow, that took all day. Just think, you got your first bass of the day. That's the four hour fish, y'all.  It's pretty fish. He's not big, but they're just thick out here, man. Chunky. He's big, he must be at least six pounds. When I saw your line pop, I was like, oh my God. You gotta be thick, you know what I'm saying? I don't know why I just looked at that tree and said, you know what, I got so in there. Another warm mouth. Big Steve somehow figured out how to catch another warm mouth. I can't get away from these things. Little brutes, they're cool looking. That one's not as pretty as the other one, but. It's not as big, is it? Mm-mm. Little twinkie. Little twinkie. Oh gosh, not missing you that time, buddy. It's a mud fish. That's the one that bit me earlier. He's going crazy. Y'all, this guy's huge, dude. You ready? I can't even turn him. He's big. Oh no. Oh no. It's a catfish. No wonder he's fine like that. That's what hit me earlier. That hard was a catfish. Look at how he's circling. See how he's circling? I'm about to say that's a little weird. Got a warm mouth, mud fish, caddies. Freaking big, dude. That's a big bass, dude. Let me see you, about four? Three and a half? Three and a half, yeah. It's crazy. The big ones are biting, dude. We got almost 12 pounds of three fish. We got a bag. I gotta do this, man. Look at those fish, man. That's crazy. Big Steve's catching all the species. Your boy's catching the thaddies. All right, it's your turn, Big Steve. Dude, he was running. He ran to the right so hard. He had me wrapped around that stump. Let's freaking go. I got three good ones in there, guys.  I'm talking a bag. Oh, oh, oh. What happened? What happened? We've had a day, guys. I really, all we have to do is catch like another, like a two-pound fish, and we, one or two two-pound fish would easily have 15 pounds. That's crazy, but I mean, I know if we like fish hard, and we gotta have 17, we might be able to put a 20-pound bag together. I mean, we got three really good ones in there. I was surprised by that one. I threw up right here, if you guys look, at these laydowns. I threw right up there. All of a sudden, I started like reeling it and kind of popped it over a stump, and I still thumped, and I saw a swirl, and he was running off to the right with it. That was a good one. This is all, like, territory that we fished earlier today. We're just coming back through, kind of cleaning up, because last time we didn't fish clean, so there's big ones. All right, guys, here we go. There's some good fish, man. Good river bass. We're actually about to get rained on, trying to release these real quick so we can haul butt back. Those are our two biggest ones today. About a three and a half and a four, five, four to five pounder. Beautiful fish. Easy four pounder. There she goes.
