Fornwith I drift and paddle. speed only matters if your using lures.

Jason Valle Yea I was using some lures, but not sure how fast I need to be going. If your using live bait you can just semi drift / paddle? I just started kayak fishing so any tips would be solid.

Fornwith yeah with lures faster the better on a kayak but if using dead or live bait you can just drift around

its hard to find time these days to fish with calm conditions on my days off I usually just go alone but I do offered guided tours for a fee with all equipment needed if your interested on rates or times to go you can email me at [email protected] or you can call/text my personal line at 808-398-6623 I'm located on the north shore of Oahu Aloha thanks for watching!

I got really lucky I put my arms up and caught the swingarm otherwise I would have got mangled. I got a sore rib and a nice burn through my shirt lucky

I offer guided tours I work under a close friend and fellow pacific warriors discovery channel fishing partners guiding called coastal kayak tours you can visit coastal kayak tours.com but I believe the fishing has been removed off the site as it is hard to line up a day with good conditions for blue water with clients. I usually take over his fishing clients and the owner does the "Eco tours" or rentals. If you give me a call at least a week in advance of your arrival I can do my best to line up a day to take you out. It all has to do with the weather cooperating.

+Jason Valle thanks Jason. I guess by the last week of May, the seas should be ok for offshore fishing. Here in Florida, it gets glassy nice. Some thunderstorms but flat water. Will contact you as soon as it is definite.

2-3 miles

Mark CP opelu akule malolo

almost any species pelagic or inshore depending on your location. ive caught tuna and ono a half mile from shore.

thanks. sure

try trolling a crystal minnow nearshore on west side stay just behind the surfline 15-20ft. of water. the wind us generally lite in the morning hours year round on that side

about 1-2 miles offshore for pelagic. I wouldn't go that far unless i trusted my fitness. its not your arms that get you in trouble its the weather. knowing the area and a lot about how weather affects the ocean is a huge advantage. ive been kayak fishing for 4 years.

live opelu or akule

check out aquahunters.com forum section for any kayak related questions and you can follow the current tournament

hes using my rod and reel. a penn 850 ssm on a 7ft. 25# rating eclipse whipping rod and a penn squall 60 lever drag on a 7 ft. 40-60# rating shakespeare tidewater rod

Jason Valle mahalos any suggestions for more close to shore ill be trooling by drop offs and I only have my 12 foot ugly stick with a daiwa spinning reel and a 6 foot shimano combo for whipping can I use the shimano rod with the big daiwa reel?

Pono Fisher yeah you can. try using yozuri or daiwa crystal minnow lures for near shore

Jason Valle mahalo I am gonna get a tide water rod for christmas

hes a beginner. bottomfishing he got a 3#yellowspot and a 5#kagami. when i passed him my pole on double hook up it was an ono he lost it

the bedrock was a little dry. but there was definitely some very slick wet parts that haven't dried yet. it was a very challenging section. thanks for commenting

thanks for watching james. im using a 80# rating full steel eyes tidewater rod with a penn squall 60 lever drag reel. 60# leader. akule will work but i prefer to use live opelu. lures work when the fish are hungry i use crystal minnows about 4 inches. try to stick along deep drop offs and ledges aloha.

as for your reel and rod setup i definately recommend all still eyes and a rod between 6 and 7 feet. the reel should be lever drag so you can leave it on free spool then set the drag instantly to set the hook. especially good when dragging dead or live bait.

yes. thank you for commenting
