This job is all about the EQUIPMENT

ctx 160. we've been loving this thing i haven't really had it in videos much because i've been using it on my property more than at work today's the first time we're going to use this at work this has been on my property for over a year and i use it a lot there because we're developing um stuff for monkeybeaver.com and for the arborist side so first first day on the tree job [Music] with the cat 302.7d cr whatever that means anyway i've uh i've become an excavator guy i really love this thing jeff's gonna fall this leaning hauler hopefully the ducks will move should we throw a bunch of bread first [Laughter] true hunter away from the dark side okay so today is pond cleaning day and we need to just start fishing things out of there all those leaners we're going to cut them off and drag them over here and chip them those logs that are floating in the pond we're going to drag them up here and chip them that log over there will leave it's kind of a habitat thing then once we get this little area cleaned out we're gonna pull some stuff over to that spot that's over there on the other side of that bridge out there because there's aerators in the pond and we can't be dragging stuff across their aerators that make sense they have a boat they're going to loan us they should already have it here we were out here the other day yeah i saw the whole the whole thing the paddles floating away a boat floating away yeah it was like oh my gosh it doesn't have a rope on the dang thing it was like wait a second yeah why don't we have a boat with no rope yeah i was with chad we felt responsible so [Music] so so turned out to be kind of a nice day for it so far you never really look forward to cleaning the pond you know it's it's not the funnest thing i brought my drone i might show some aerial of it don't know why just because i'm a youtuber or something like that but see it gets clogged up with logs because the bank always erodes and then trees fall into it so we've done this before actually we'll get those logs maybe some of that stuff over there and then the main focus of our task today is to clean that little bay right there those logs and that'll be the main work today in the pond while we're doing this yeah there are some really big bass in here you can they're fishing bass in here with lures that are a foot long right yeah like 12 inch trout ain't they're any good the bass probably i mean they're they're probably ghetto bass i don't know they got like gold chains on them stuff [Laughter] they got a lot of bling there's a j in their lip uh they've got like piercings all over from this pond the only way you can catch them with is with like a lure that looks like a j yeah they're alternative bass and you gotta have like herb scent on it is it hooked up [Music] ah smell that pond that'll do donkey one of the cool things about being a tree guy is is changing the environment i i don't mean destroying it i mean your own environment your workplace changes and sometimes you're wrecking stuff and sometimes you're improving things today we're improving stuff and it's a change of pace all about the equipment today see that's a change of pace for jeff huh there's a lot of other ones yeah i mean if we left them all it just gets too clogged so we're leaving some over there and over there i mean they're not using them all i know that the one that used to be like right there on that one i don't know what happened to that one maybe it floated downstream down lake a couple years ago we took a bunch of logs that way with a crane so those ladies were concerned that we were removing all the turtle sunning perches but yeah no that's not our mission to destroy turtle habitat it's to uh clean up the place a bit you're just gonna have to jump in jeff you have to get on that log [Laughter] and yes i'm gonna half hitch that thing and see what happens just gonna be growing glowing green at the end of the day all right we'll be like we'll be like what's that smell oh it's jeff it's swamped james death two for one that's good yeah stop i'm so glad we didn't bring the big electric slow winch down here sweep them out let's play with let's let's jump rope jeff get in the boat it'll be hard for me to not sweep his heart out off or something something really pranking like go underneath the back and then go yeah it's working [Music] hey youtube i didn't have the camera running but we just started a new section here and uh it's going swimmingly [Music] okay so so cut it as far as you can without putting saw underwater oh [Music] nice job [Music] okay youtube that's about it thanks for hanging out with us today on our pond cleaning job all we got to do now is back blade the chip road this is like a bark trail and uh i'll show you
