ANOTHER MAJOR FISHKILL - Trying to find surviving bass - fishing
Channel: Cheap Angler
Date: 29/05/2017

In this video, we stopped at a favorite pond, only to find all the fish were dead. So we packed up and went to another pond, only to find all the fish were dead. So, we packed up and hit the river, and I got one on the first cast. 

If any of you have a monetized YouTube channel, you know that the last few months (especially for outdoors channels) has been terrible. Apparently, the outdoors is offensive, and YouTube has restricted the amount of ads (if any) they will show on videos like mine. Even the biggest channels (Like the Googans) are suffering. LunkersTV has even stated that it is now COSTING him money to produce his videos. They've all resorted to pushing their own sponsors and branching out to non-fishing related sponsors. Everyone is scrambling, trying to find a way to get their income back up. I personally have lost 80% of my monthly income. YouTube thinks this is acceptable.

I'll say that again for people skimming through:

I HAVE LOST 80% of my monthly income because of YouTube's "Adpocalypse."

Imagine you make $20 an hour for about a year, then your boss decides the work you do isn't as important as other employees, so you get a pay cut, and now you make $4 an hour.

Like I said, there is a scramble going on among millions of YouTubers trying to figure out what to do. A lot of them are leaving and joining other sites, like Twitch and vid.me, but that's not an option for some. I started posting to vid.me as well, but it's not exactly the right community for my videos. Most seem to be using amazon Affiliate links, but those only work on fans who are genuinely interested in the products used in the videos. Most of my viewers are there for the action.

As a last ditch effort, I've added a PayPal Donation button to my channel art links, and included the link in the descriptions for all future uploads. I hate asking for money, but it's something a lot of YouTubers are doing to afford to continue creating content for their fans. I'll include it below as well.

If you like my channel, or anyone's channel, and want to help support it, make a small donation (if they have the option). Or, if you plan on buying something online, check out their videos and see if they have an Amazon affiliate link you can order it from.

I am doing this on my own behalf, but it does apply to almost every monetized channel out there. Times are tough for content creators who relied on YouTube, and YouTube is turning their back on us.

Thank you for your support, and please, support others as well. It's a lot of work with little reward doing what we do.

** Some fishing locations are private property, others may be places I was invited to on the condition of anonymity. I've posted a handful of locations and had them blow up and become over-fished. Whether this is due to my YouTube channel, or the result of other people spreading the word, I will no longer be posting locations publicly. If you really want to know a location, message me privately. If I can share it, I will. I can easily be reached on Facebook and Instagram.
