    This trip still doesn’t feel real and for many years I never thought this would’ve even been possible. And I guess that’s what I hope you can take away from this. The 4 of us are just normal dudes from the southeast. As you saw, none of us are expert saltwater anglers and we certainly have a lot to learn going forward, but we got out and did it. And that’s what’s important. So for any of you who have a place in mind, a goal or some sort of aspiration, don’t let your inexperience deter you from trying. There were a lot of failures on this trip (especially in this episode 😅), but with each one we learned something new and kept moving forward.
    The past few months have been crazy with getting this series done, hosting our first live film premieres & releasing our new merch line, but what’s kept me going through all of it is you guys. I’m so thankful for this community we’re building and I hope our films can continue to help you find your own own epic adventures.
    Thanks for following along and if you’re new here we would appreciate it if you subscribed. We’re so close to hitting 100K!

    I,m not ashamed to say I had tears when Steve finally got that bone. Those bones will pull out the best and worst of any true fisherman well done guys You nailed it.

    When you attached the special meaning to that fishery after having met a native to it, that was really moving. My heart was racing when Steve was hooked up at the end. I couldn’t tell if he was going to land it! When he grabbed the fish I felt the sigh of relief and finally exhaled! What an amazing trip.

    The quality of these videos always blows me away... this is a feature film of fishing, adventure, and camaraderie. Been here since Boone and not going anywhere... You guys are lucky to have each other. You may not have thought this but someday when you're all old these are the things you will remember, moments from these trips. Day-to-day life flies by monotonously and what we're left with are memories of our most treasured experiences. Call me soft, but when they gave Kevin the gear gift at the end, I couldn't help but tear up.

  • @wyattrubin
    @wyattrubin Před rokem +1

    I've fished for just about every kind of saltwater fish and there's nothing that rewards like a bonefish. Complete and utter despair when you blow a shot or lose a fish, absolute euphoria when you finally land one. I'm lucky enough to live in south Florida but I recommend every fisherman make a cast at one eventually. An endless pursuit.
