  • Curious about the world's biggest fishing convention? I attended this year thanks to Pelican International and I captured some of the fun with my GoPro action camera. I used a Hero 8 and it seems that if you accidentally hit some buttons on the LCD screen, the color temperature changes. I'm not sure what that means, other then half of everything I video'd looked cold and blue. The air temperature at iCast, on the other hand, was Hot Hot Hot because it was again held in Orlando, Florida. I hadn't attended since 2019 and it was wonderful to see some old friends that I had met there before. I'm sure some people there are most proud of the big deals they brokered, but for me, it's the relationships with good people that I cherish the most.

    Great video. I bought a Pelican kayak because of Marty and soon will be buying a second.

    Always nice to watch your very informative videos. I hope to see you fishing in Southeast Florida or maybe down the Florida Keys.
    Wishing you all the best Marty!

    Always enjoy listening and watching, when I met you, the wife& I had fun just sitting on the dock in Tampa enjoying conversation of fishing books and life in general. Have watched your channel since the beginning in the little red kayak, keep up the great work.

    I don’t think anyone in the community can say they have as many long term viewers. Your videos were some of the first I had ever seen. I can say, I’m happy the future of wilderness kayaks is in your hands, even if it’s just you testing and showing off what they have. I have been using my commander 120 for close to 11 years. I wish they would make that boat again, with some of the modern upgrades. I remember my first kayak being a perception. I have been using GSI for nearly 15 years. Good companies to support, and I appreciate you being honest. Thanks for all the help over the years and the inspiration to keep things simple. You’re pretty much the guru of grassroots kayak fishing.

    Good to see a notification from Zoffinger. Keep going Keep going even if it means not the same project. I and many are proud of you. A lot love watching your show, even seeing your face. Knowing you have the body to perform the things you do. Boat stuff. Fish stuff. Good stuff. Your accent even rolls different or unique. We like you and your mind. Just do you. Thank you for gracing us once again.

    Marty, I’ve been watching you since you poor man’s fishing kayak build and to be honest I never really cared about quality, all I cared was that I got to see you, just you and what ever you where working on or inventing to make fishing that bit more comfortable. I wish you would go back to just filming anything your up to, those days were fun. Cheers Marty. 🇦🇺

    Great to see another video. I’m still really interested to see a “life update”. I’d like to see a tour of your trailer and where you’ve set up camp. Is it on the property of your old business? Are you trying to sell Kon Tiki? Keep it up.

    Kayak DIY had it correct. Your channel was much cooler back in the day. Watching your poor man kayak ideas was very inspirational. Then you got big with pelican and all the manufactured kayaks. The best and coolest yak you had was old red. May you paddle the mighty seas with her again !

    • @ReelWaterFishing
      @ReelWaterFishing Před 9 měsíci +5

      Idk he literally put a jet on that pelican that’s pretty sick and if it weren’t for a fan gifting him a hobie he probably would still be on old red lol

    Hey Marty, good video, Keep up the good work! By the way if they give you a inflatable kayak how do you think you can improve it, can not drill any hole in it!

    • @trampster7306
      @trampster7306 Před 9 měsíci

      Inflatable Kayaks & SUP's have got a bad reputation here in the UK - numerous cases of them catching the wind and blown out to sea, and folk having to be rescued.

      Videos from Marty are always great, been watching from the very early days, but if there's one place they fall down, it's the lack of interaction from Marty in the comments. 🤔🤔

    Hi Marty 😎 been praying for you as the Lord put you on my heart several years ago. Tampa was my home for couple years. Lakeland after that but I was originally from NC. We live in VA now long time. You are about age of our son so have motherly type affection towards you. I have been prompted to give you a name and let the Lord direct you to check him out as the Lord wills. Consider me a direction sign in your life journey > Dr Kevin Zadai. Not a church but ministry. I promise you nothing like you’ve ever seen before. Something is going to happen and you will need to know this group. I did my job. The rest is up to you. Many blessings ♥️
