Shadowing Practice: $250 Temu Budget Fishing Challenge - Learn English Speaking with Video

Creando lección...
1
I got a haul of some of the most controversial and affordable ice fishing gear on the market.
2
Everything we use today comes from the app Timu.
3
Timu has literally everything you can think of from everyday life to fishing and more.
4
All at insanely affordable prices.
5
But the real question is, can Timu's ice fishing gear actually hold up to real standards out on the ice?
6
Today we're putting that to the test.
7
To do this, Aaron and I put together a $250 Timu only ice fishing haul.
8
And we're doing a challenge using nothing but Timu gear.
9
Here's how it's going to work.
10
Whoever catches the first fish gets a point.
11
Whoever catches the most fish gets another point.
12
And whoever catches the biggest fish of the day gets the final point.
13
Whoever ends the day with two points wins.
14
But here's the twist.
15
We won't be using the same gear.
16
We separated the gear into two different boxes.
17
And once you pick a box, you can only use the gear that's inside it.
18
Now let's get these boxes open and start the challenge.
19
Okay, Aaron, here are our two Timu Hall boxes separated together.
20
We're gonna do rock-paper-scissors to see who gets first pick to choose which box they want ready Alright two out of three
21
Two oh, I'm gonna choose the wagon box and yes that wagon did come from Timu also
22
The first in this mystery box is this little tiny Timu wagon Maybe
23
if you got a little two-year-old nephew or something they can fit in here
24
But we're not going to use that right now.
25
All right.
26
First item.
27
Perfect for this cold weather ice fishing.
28
This is a sweet shiesty we got.
29
So I'm going to replace my hat right now and put it on.
30
Cephatus brand.
31
I don't know what that is.
32
Cephatus.
33
Can't see the hair.
34
How's it looking?
35
That's actually sick.
36
So now we're into the lure part of our challenge.
37
And I'm going to try to catch a fish on every lure we get here.
38
We got some big old ice jigs.
39
And hopefully we get a smaller lure.
40
Because these are pretty big for ice fishing but these could catch us a big bass too.
41
Ooh, we got this high shark spinning reel it shows.
42
Let's open this up and see how it looks.
43
Yo, that is surprisingly smooth, but the colorway, the gray, the black, the orange, this is probably my new favorite ice fishing reel for sure now.
44
I think these are some pliers right there, baby.
45
I don't think we're gonna use this much in our challenge.
46
Maybe to cut some line though.
47
What the?
48
This thing is extremely small, bro.
49
This is the bottom half of the rod right here.
50
And this is the top part right here.
51
I think you just Stick it in a simple as easy simple as good.
52
We're just gonna have to test this out.
53
See if it can handle a big fish These are just a whole bunch of jigging spoons that we can use.
54
They come in some crazy colorways right here We got some little wax worms
55
and I didn't think they actually came with a hook in
56
each one of them We got some cotton candy jig heads
57
one of my favorite colors to use I just bought these
58
at the store the other day for two of them was like ten dollars
59
And that's all of my gear
60
but before we go to errands I need to show you guys something really quick
61
because timu actually hooked you guys up with crazy savings
62
And I want to show you exactly how to use them
63
right now timu is running two promotional offers The first code is kcc9873
64
which gives you twenty dollars off
65
if your order is over twenty dollars This coupon needs to be redeemed 24 hours after you receive it.
66
The second code is kcy8835 and this unlocks a $100 coupon bundle inside the Teemu app.
67
Everyone's bundle is different, but the total value is always $100.
68

69

75
If you want to check out Timu or grab any of this gear yourself, click the link in my bio and use my two codes to unlock the savings.
76
Now let's see what Aaron got and start this challenge.
77
Bro, what in the world?
78
So what I think this is, is some type of rod holder and also a type of tip up where
79
when you get a bite on the fishing hook that pops up
80
and notifies you
81
that you have a fish on let's see what else we got in here bro what
82
so this right here is a pair of bibs
83
but i think the black ones fit my outfit much better
84
i might have to throw these on next thing up is
85
right here these are a bunch of various ice fishing jigs
86
and i think these will definitely help me win the quantity challenge
87
because these catch a ton of fish okay i see something in here
88
that might help me win the biggest fish challenge of this.
89
It's a bunch of these jigging crankbaits all in here.
90
And these catch big fish through the ice.
91
And this box looks like a reel.
92
This low-key looks clean.
93
It's a high chow reel.
94
Never heard of it before.
95
This handle is actually sick.
96
Really sturdy, heavy duty.
97
And the final package, this looks like my musky rod, bro.
98
There we go.
99
Okay.
100
All right.
101
This actually looks nice.
102
Got some type of cork handle on this.
103
My musky rod is like a jumbo size version of this.
104
This is nice.
105
And that looks to be it in my box.
106
I'm going to go put my rod and reel together and get to fishing.
107
Okay, guys, I just screwed this on.
108
This is my final combo that I got and I think this reel actually looks awesome.
109
We just got to throw some line on it real quick and then we'll be good to go.
110
Aaron is still spooling up over here
111
and I think just to get our first fish I'm gonna
112
knock these cotton candy jig heads out of the way and put a spike on the back.
113
I'm gonna drill my first hole right here.
114
I just have some leftover wax worms that we have right on the back of our brand new rod.
115
first drop on the Timu items.
116
Boom.
117
This rod is very, very sensitive.
118
So I'll be able to feel a bite instantly.
119
I'm finally set up with my rod and reel, but since we're giving a point to the first person to catch a fish, I put on the smallest jig head just to get a number on the board.
120
Just like that, dropping it down.
121
I'm just going to let mine kind of soak in the water for a little, and I'm going to go drill holes all around this water so that if this one's not working,
122
I can just continuously move without stopping.
123
I don't know how many holes that just was, but we gotta check our rod now.
124
If there's nothing on here, then I'm gonna start going to every hole until we find the fish.
125
Yeah, it doesn't look like there's anything on here.
126
So I'm just gonna walk around and try to find the fish.
127
And just after fishing through a few holes, we found one with some life in it.
128
Oh, I got a bite.
129
Guys, we just dropped down on the third hole and we see a fish.
130
I just got a bite and Aaron's dropping down to get that first point.
131
Oh, I just got bit.
132
No, man.
133
I want to get that first fish so bad.
134
Oh, oh, I got a fish.
135
Got one.
136
There we go.
137
Let's go.
138
Let's go.
139
The first fish, baby.
140
Aaron was so close to getting him, but I got him first.
141
That is one point.
142
It doesn't matter the size of this guy.
143
The first fish is all that matters.
144
It's on our cotton candy little jig head.
145
And guys, this rod works.
146
That fight, I felt the bite so hard when it nibbled.
147
And then I set the hook and got him.
148
Let's get him back.
149
Thanks, bro, for getting me that lead.
150
Let's go.
151
So now that Tony has a point for the first fish, that means in order to win this, I have to catch the most fish and the biggest fish for those final two points.
152
It's gonna be tough, but I still think I got it.
153
I'm just gonna drop him down right here Aaron's going to get a wax room, but he doesn't know we're all out I like to just keep it very still
154
and then jig it every once in a while Aaron just walked straight past me.
155
I guess he's not having a good feeling about this hole
156
He doesn't want me to catch another one right in front of his eyes
157
He might be mad because when he went there was no wax rooms in there when he thought there was That guy's cheating bro.
158
I took my time and drilled every single hole out here.
159
He's just going and stealing them.
160
I might have to sabotage him.
161
If he doesn't stop stealing my holes.
162
We stayed separate fishing and then it was time for me to switch up.
163
My bait is gone so I guess that's a sign to switch it up.
164
We have the Timu spoons that were luckily in my box.
165
I'm gonna go with this yellow and orange one.
166
And it does have that little rattling spoon thing.
167
I think this should work a lot better than our last lure
168
and what I was thinking almost quickly came true guys I'm gonna bite I'm gonna bite oh I missed it.
169
I missed it.
170
Let's drop it down real quick
171
man That one was definitely bigger and my miss led to a bite for Aaron on the other side.
172
What the guys guys Aaron's on oh My gosh, no way, bro.
173
You switched up your bait to this I switched up to the bigger lipless crank, the pink one.
174
And I think this might be my PB bluegill, bro.
175
Bro, that is like massive.
176
Biggest bluegill I've seen in my life.
177
Did you think it was a bass?
178
I thought for sure it was a bass.
179
Did you eat this?
180
So this is the biggest fish.
181
So I get the point for that right now.
182
There he goes.
183
Aaron was in the lead now, but one big fish could change it all.
184
Oh.
185
Got him.
186
There we go.
187
Let's go.
188
All three hooks in him.
189
I cannot get this out.
190
Oh, there we go.
191
The second fish puts me in the lead now.
192
Still waiting to get that biggest fish of the day though.
193
So I moved on to the next lure to see which one they would bite.
194
I'm gonna try to catch one fish on these fake wax worms and that will get me more of the quantity up.
195
And then after i catch one on these wax worms i'll
196
be going to my final lure these big ice jigs things have been slow but
197
if i can catch a fish on these two especially this
198
one then that'll be a good day i'm walking around just my rod
199
and my camera aaron's walking around with a whole sonar
200
that little garmin phone sonar so he can see where the fish are
201
and when they're coming up to bite it's kind of cheating But I'm still in the lead for this one.
202
Let's go over to these holes over here.
203
Hopefully this thing can drop down This is where Aaron got that big that monster blue gigi Is not dropping I
204
Was fishing to try to get some more points until I heard this ah Think I just heard a gunshot
205
Yo someone's hunting extremely close by Aaron's looking around
206
Bro what I had to go over to go talk to Aaron
207
but notice something while walking over what the there's no way you call
208
Roll on about to come over here say let's get out of here.
209
Yo It's just thin ice, watch out.
210
No way!
211
Some guy's like firing shots
212
and I was about to tell him like he's getting close to every shot and I come and he has a fish.
213
Look at the stripes on this guy, that is a beautiful bass on the ice.
214
Usually these guys are super lethargic in the winter, but this guy was feisty.
215
Literally the second I dropped it down he destroyed it.
216
Man, Aaron found the method, I might have to switch up.
217
Yo, this guy stinks.
218
Yeah, smells awful.
219
Yeah.
220
There we go.
221
Hey, Tony just said, bro, move spots.
222
You're not catching anything.
223
And I caught one, bro.
224
What bait were you using for that bass?
225
I switched up.
226
It's these little crank baits that I got in my T-MU box.
227
Crank bait.
228
And I was using the pink one originally, but I asked Tony, I was like, should I switch up to a more natural color?
229
And I did.
230
And I just tipped it with these spikes and bro, that bass wanted it.
231
Yeah.
232
I think I'm going to take this fake waxworm off and I'm going to go for the bigger fish too.
233
Things were getting too close.
234
So it was time to switch to the big lures i think i'm gonna go with this red
235
and black this thing's pretty heavy duty and i know
236
if i get something on this it's gonna be pretty big aaron said he missed another bass it's perfect timing
237
because i got my bigger jigging lure on black
238
and red right here what do you think about
239
that good color choice
240
or no i like the red i'm not gonna lie i might tip it with a wax worm or something
241
if i were you now it was prime eating time for the bite to start heating up maybe someone's duck hunting.
242
Yeah.
243
Or is that a hammer?
244
Wait, but that's not a duck.
245
That's a goose.
246
Oh.
247
Let's get out there.
248
I do got a bigger lure, but that only means bigger fish.
249
I fished this lure for a while and it had some great action, but with no bites, I just don't think it was the lure to use today.
250
This lure is pretty cool and I know it can work good, but it's just a little too fast for the slow bite that's going on right now.
251
So we're gonna go to our
252
final and last lure to win us this challenge spikes with a new color spoon this white
253
and yellow perfectly imitating their prey there we go and
254
when i set off with this aaron had other plans now
255
here's where i'm going to use this rod holder to advantage the sun's setting we're short on time
256
so i'm going to drill a bunch of new holes
257
and fish them but while i do
258
that i'm going to use this rod holder
259
and this thing's actually crazy check it out
260
so i just set it wherever i want in the ice
261
and i use this screw to drill it in i'm gonna set my rod in here
262
and then tighten that okay good just like that
263
and then this is a tip up guys
264
so what i do is i pull this flag back
265
and hook it right here bring my line back here
266
and set it on that hook so now hypothetically
267
if a fish pulls on my line what i'm about to do now this flag will go up let's see
268
if it works And while Aaron did this I fished hole after hole until I found one With the hungry fish
269
Think I'm on one Yep I'm on Oh it came off
270
No way I don't know what that was
271
But I was on something Oh There we go we're on again Oh yeah Oh it's a bass Oh my gosh Aaron
272
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
273
Wait, wait, wait.
274
Oh my gosh.
275
Oh, he's fighting.
276
Please don't snap off, please.
277
Oh Yes, I got him.
278
Let's go.
279
Let's go.
280
Oh my gosh, bro.
281
I thought I lost him.
282
I thought he was snapping me off I don't know bro.
283
They're kind of like the same size.
284
Finally, I'm on the board with a decent fish
285
but there's more down there i see them
286
so i'm gonna send this one back in a different hole
287
and then we're going out to catch him oh thank you
288
bro you got me in the lead let's go we're running out of daylight aaron's gotta act quick
289
so right now i think i'm in the with the biggest fish
290
but Tony's one up on me on the amount of fish
291
and first fish
292
so only thing I could do right now is I have
293
to catch one more fish to at least don't stand too
294
close this ice is thin all right I'm going back to
295
that hole I'm so happy I got
296
that fish to bite man I thought I missed him okay
297
guys drop him down these guys are getting feisty what Aaron
298
just pulled up out of nowhere aaron cannot be without the garmin bro he came
299
and took my hole too oh oh you're about to get
300
that oh i did get
301
but i got bit ah i missed him oh let me
302
get down there you can go down there oh my god
303
it's my turn now buddy oh i think i was on
304
your line bro i don't think they want your lure bro I'm switching to a new hole
305
when he doesn't know how to fish this guy come on I'm on I'm on right
306
when Aaron left I'm on a fish I think it's another bass yep another bass let's go let's go Oh my gosh,
307
right when Aaron left What the heck?
308
Hooked in the same exact place The bottom of the lip Right when Aaron leaves my hole I get my second bass,
309
bro I'm just going crazy in this challenge Do you think Oh, what the heck's coming out of him?
310
Second bass It's still not as big as Aaron's though Do you think it's close or no?
311
they're all like the same size honestly yours was definitely bigger though
312
but so i'm up two to one i'm first fish
313
and i have most fish but i'll allow you to get an extra point
314
if you catch something over four pounds all right that's a honey hole there's a lot of fish in there
315
so once again i'm gonna drop back down there
316
if you want you can try to catch them
317
but i don't think you are let's release bro i just don't want to scare all the fish
318
and like he goes back and tells them like I just got caught.
319
I know Aaron's salty after that.
320
Send him back.
321
Ay!
322
Starting to get cold.
323
If I catch another one in the same hole, then something's not right.
324
After I rigged up another spike, I dropped my spoon back down the honey hole to secure the dub in this challenge.
325
It feels so good when you get hooked on a bass.
326
And my drag is set, like, perfectly.
327
So when they start pulling...
328
Oh, I got a bite.
329
I actually got another bite.
330
These bass, even in the winter
331
These bass nibble the lure So you can't tell
332
if it's a bluegill A bass
333
or whatever They all just nibble it I kept getting bites here
334
And we decided
335
if I get one more fish Then call it a day All we gotta do is drop it down
336
And we just have to get them to bite the hook That's what we can't get going right now
337
Gosh What is this thing?
338
Gosh What am I keep missing man?
339
Could that be a bluegill?
340
But why would a bluegill be chilling with a bass?
341
I tried to get this fish that was biting, but Aaron was hooked on before I could.
342
Oh, if it's a four-pounder What the heck?
343
Oh my gosh!
344
Jumbo bluegill, we gotta get one more fish to tie this challenge up before it gets dark.
345
That guy is beautiful.
346
All right, one more fish.
347
One more fish.
348
If Aaron gets it, it might be a tie.
349
All right, we gotta hurry.
350
We only got about five or ten minutes left of daylight.
351
Come on.
352
Give me that big bass I need one so I can just win
353
Aaron Aaron might be having to come back right now then minutes before being completely dark.
354
I want a big boy Oh my gosh Aaron's on no way Yo Stay on stay on
355
Dude it almost broke me off on the ice What the hell?
356
Bro, what are you saying, bro?
357
What's this guy saying?
358
The ice was breaking the crazy, bro.
359
No way.
360
Somehow, Aaron was able to get another jumbo bluegill right before dark.
361
It wasn't a monster, but it was enough to tie my fish count
362
and canceling out my first fish with the biggest fish, ending us in a draw.

Pronunciación a tener en cuenta

El hablante usa 119 contracciones y formas reducidas, como I'm, gonna, we're. Dilas en su forma corta, tal como las oyes.

  • Los sonidos de “sh” y “zh”: gosh /ɡɑːʃ/, gunshot /ˈɡʌn.ʃɑt/, shiesty /ˈʃaɪsti/, sabotage /ˈsæb.əˌtɑʒ/, promotional /pɹəˈmoʊʃənəl/
  • Palabras largas — cuida el acento: affordable /əˈfɔɹ.də.bəl/, promotional /pɹəˈmoʊʃənəl/, continuously /kənˈtɪnjuəsli/, surprisingly /səˈpɹaɪzɪŋli/, controversial /ˌkɑn.tɹəˈvɝ.ʃəl/

Sonidos difíciles para hispanohablantes:

  • s + consonante al inicio — sin añadir una “e” delante: spoon /spuːn/, spike /spaɪk/, snap /snæp/, sturdy /ˈstɜrdi/, stripe /stɹaɪp/
  • /v/ — no es /b/: los dientes tocan el labio inferior: controversial /ˌkɑn.tɹəˈvɝ.ʃəl/, wherever /(h)wɛɹˈɛvɚ/
  • /z/ — sonora, no /s/: pliers /ˈplaɪ.ə(ɹ)z/, scissors /ˈsɪzəz/, surprisingly /səˈpɹaɪzɪŋli/

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
