    My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. czcams.com/users/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!

    There's a yearly 3-day/2-night canoe camping trip that had started as strictly just some buddies and me about 15 years ago and now has turned into a father-son and family canoe-camping trip. All the 2-3lbs. smallies you could ever want to catch a day with the occasional 4+ smallie and some largies, northerns, muskies and eyes mixed in. Now there's nothing more that I look forward to than this trip and catching them out of a canoe.

    • @Boethius411
      @Boethius411 Před rokem

      That’s awesome my friend. I love floating down a few of the bigger creeks here in North Alabama. The southernmost range for smallmouth. I’ve caught multiple smallies as big as 6& 1 over 7lbs in some water I could never reach wading or in my bass boat. And the numbers in that 2-4 pound class can be pretty great too. Maybe not as good as where you are but that chance for a true giant makes up for it. An hour south there’s shoal bass in that class too… not to mention some monster spotted bass all over the place here. It’s worth it just to get back to nature and the basics. The fish are really just one hell of a bonus. lol

    I bought a kayak as an inexpensive way to get on the water and fish. I didn’t know I would like kayaking so much. When I bought my bass boat I missed being in the yak. I definitely fish different water yak vs. boat but I still enjoy the quiet and connection to the water and the outdoors that comes with kayak fishing.

    Cast to side or at 45° angle will give you more resistance in water & better hook sets. A little softer tip rods help keep fish pinned better than fishing from bank or bigger boats.

    I absolutely love fishing out of a kayak. I go, at minimum. twice a week on the river in mine, and people all the time ask me why i don't just get myself a boat. They just don't understand the intimacy i get with the water and nature while im out there in my kayak. Plus the kayak is a lot more budget friendly, and i have just as much or more fun on the water than i would in a boat.

      Just moved to North Central Florida at the beginning of October (Ian made our entry a little delayed, haha) and I am in fishing paradise. After having been trained as a bass fisherman in the Midwest, but then living in Colorado and Washington for many years where largemouth are few and far between, I am absolutely slaughtering them down here. We live in Ocala and are surrounded by all sorts of lakes to hit, but when I'm just looking to land a fish and don't care about the size, I can just go fling some plastics into the apartment pond and there are always bass ready to strike. I do that damn near every day. Couldn't be happier.

Way better than southern Ohio where I lived my whole life before. I can kayak fish 12 months out of year down here. You absolutely have huge advantage in big bass boat because u can cover so much more water. You just need plan your fishing out before hand & launch in area you wanna fish when kayaking. You have much smaller presence & are quiet & stealthy in kayak.

  • @davelindsay6949
    @davelindsay6949 Před rokem

    Kayak sales reps say that all the time, kayak fishing is for fishing where boats can't go. I've been kayak fishing for over 10 years originally because we couldn't afford a boat, trailer and truck to tow the boat. Every where I've fished and I try to fish places boats won't want to go- there are always boats. At least in Georgia and Florida where I've done most of my fishing. So if you plan on buying a kayak thinking you can go where a boat can't sorry boats can go in inches of water same as a kayak, difference is if you get stuck you have to get out in swamp with gators, water moccasins, and leaches while your boat counter with just trim up his motor and blast the place out pushing past you. They have mud and swamp boats that literally run in 1/2 inch of water going over 50mph while you are pulling your kayak through swamp muck. So don't believe that stuff. I do recommend learning how to flip and get back in and having all your equipment tag lined to your kayak. Several times I've been targeted by drunk jet skiers as the object to do a slalom course around. I was happy when the one of the jet ski people went around the back of my kayak and hit the beach and was thrown from the jet ski, cracking the hull of the jet ski and was thrown from the ski to take a tumble on the beach. Lake Lanier Fourth of July weekend I got on a really good top water bite of spotted bass.
