“Das Boat” sounds like one of the craziest concepts for a fishing show we have ever heard of. The MeatEater crew boat a 30-year-old boat in Texas and are taking it on the road. The plan: Give 10 anglers one day to modify the craft as they see fit, and take it out on the water for some fishy shenanigans.
Das Boat Episode 6: Frank and Rob Are Back on the Savannah River
“Long river trips can take us deep into some wild places aboard a vessel that will carry far more than the basic necessities. In the season finale of Das Boat, Mustache Rob and Frank are back on the Savannah River in Georgia, headed more than 50 miles downstream into water that neither of them have ever seen before. It’s an exploratory mission, of sorts, though the Savannah is far from wilderness, and Rob and Frank’s journey is more National Lampoon than Heart of Darkness. At the terminus of their trip waits Wade Plantation and some heaping platefuls of southern hospitality. All Rob and Frank have to do is bring some catfish for the table and safely pilot Das Boat downstream.”
Episode 5: Frank Smethurst and Mustache Rob Hit Up the Savannah River in August, Georgia

They catch some of the many native sport fish in this archetypical southern river and set their sights on the east coast’s most sought after migratory game fish—stripers. Along the way, Das Boat gets a major upgrade, and they discuss the Georgia-South Carolina rivalry, southern roots, Bartram’s Bass, and the intertwined history of Augusta and the Savannah River.”
