What about bad crank sealse thats what it takes when everything else failes lets address the elephant in the room runs purfect now!!!!!!!!!

As long as you rinse your rod and reel off at the end of the day you won't have any corrosion. Buying an expensive Van Staal is unnecessary.

What kind of wire do you use?

Have used 25 V7500 spinfishers on our charter boat for the past 9 years, 890 charter days. The only thing we have had to replace is bail arms, and bail arm springs, the rest is still going strong, unbelievable reels for chartering. Had we had this unavailable here bailless model, we would have needed zero service

Just started tinkering with making these as a winter project. When adding my weights, how should I my plug float in the water? More or less at a 45 degree angle? Great channel and great tips on making these plugs.

I never fished the canal but I have lamiglas canal rod paired with a BG MQ 8000 what’s your thoughts

Awesome video, how light of a plug can you throw on this rod? Probably going to grab the 8ft for fishing back bays and stuff. The rods I have for chunking don’t throw lures very well.

👍 nice job w/ the video

Hey McLovin ! No music or what ever that noise.

Can that rod cast 2-3 oz lures pretty well? Can you get at least 65 yards on lures in the 2-3 oz range?

How many fish do u kill

Feast or famine is right.The lure you had on the last shot of catching fish was what.?Sorry if I missed it,but I see others use that same or similar one.

is this rod heavy? any idea how much it weighs?

What length and rating is the rod?I know you mentioned it was new but didn’t say what exactly it was unless I missed it.

i just order a combos Penn Spinfisher SSVI75 1202H Surf Combo 12 ft

Just put my $500 deposit down for 2 Salty's that my local dealer got in today. They've been out of stock for 7 months! Can't wait to pick em up & start hitting those shallows & offshore here on the Texas Coast. Total out the door $4300 $200 worth of fishing gear included from Line Cutterz, Including their new Diesel Rods, Fish Nets, Grabbers, Line Cutterz and other stuff.

Cool yaks! So between the two which one would be great for saltwater fishing? Are they both pretty heavy to load unload in the truck with cart wheels?

OK, were you on the land side or the cape side, and east or west of the RR bridge?

How bad is the hull slap on the salty?

The shear pin is designed to be the weakest link in order to sacrifice itself to protect the gears of the unit. Those rods from home depot are 1018 cold roll. Much stronger than the 304 stainless that came with the unit.

Can you get 100 yards of casting distance with that rod and reel?

Salty McFogg can you fish 4hourse nonstop casting whit the rod? im looking to buy the 9ft MH for jewfish. here in my country they dont sell ,so is dificult for me to know the rod better .I fish with bobber so its nonstop casting and popping.

Great catch!

Great day you had on the canal. Nothing like a striper blitz! I haven't been since 2018 but fished it on and off over the years. I was there in 2017 an insane year! Caught 7 or 8 stripers both trips back then. Two 40 inches 22 lbs each back to back . Still looking to break 30lbs. Anyways, looking forward to getting back down the canal August/September 2022 season. Nice video! Tight lines. Best of luck!

What size pvc did you use for the keels to clear ?

It was fun watching you cut with a hacksaw.....I would have preferred you used stainless steel....that would have been fun....so in five years have you ever damaged or lost a prop?... wondering b, because ca lot of guys carry a spare...do you think that necessary?.... just got my bigwater pdl...doing setup.

Old Town and Hobie are missing the “boat” by not offering 10’ Predator, and Pro Angler. They leave it to Native Watercraft for all the beans.

Glad you enjoyed it here!!!!!

Greetings from East Indonesia, Maluku, Aru Islands, Indonesian border, Australia

thank you senior for the tutorial on making creative popper and pencil baits and the genius of the work technique

spent 3wks on St. Lawrence River back in '76. Great uncle had home on an island. Was so fun and intimidating as heck for a 15yr old with zero time on bigger waters. Didn't catch much but it was so beautiful and peaceful.

great to see someone fishing the SaltX 6k too. Bought mine as all around surf reel for here in California. Had to relocate to Sacramento (~2hrs east of Ocean) but am minutes from Sacramento river...haven't been able to get out yet but can't wait. Not much experience fishing big rivers (Sacramento river is biggest in CA). Nice shots at several species of salmon, like Chinook & King, also strippers and sturgeon. So the 6k should get a good workout this year, eventually. keep the vids coming, it's appreciated by at least one of us out here in the ether.

I hope it's still going strong for you today. I considered it but decided I'd rather pay the difference and buy a Van Staal. It was very tempting at $400 but I wanted to be sure it would last and be fully sealed. It was just too new for me to give it trust. If they last for others, I may eventually buy one. There needs to be an online outlet for parts for the SaltX. I would rather buy whatever part I may need than have to send it in for service.

Nice video, what size coltsniper you was using

Just picked up a used one last week and doing pretty much the same as what yours was doing. I have to primer it to keep her from dying lol... choke lever is also quite loose but will see what a good carb clean does. Any chance you have a link for the carb kit you ordered? How has the 40:1 premix worked out for you?

Bro no sealing or shape sanding 😂 and you have a lathe 🤔🤣🤣🤣

Nice job. Was looking for the carb settings.

Ouch my ears , crank the volume up

hey just wonder what carb kit you used??

Don’t use that cheap plug use a ngk

Hmm... Salty on Tour or Tropical McFogg?

Epic! There's no fish that's more entertaining than the bluefish here in the Northeast. I absolutely LOVE getting into topwater bites with those "yellow-eyed demons", and they are my #1 fish I enjoy fishing for. Their power and aggression are amazing vs stripers of the same size. That clip of the blue jumping in and out of your kayak just goes to show how they can call almost anything food or worth attacking.

Those days when fish are slamming topwater are the best days. I find it so weird how stripers will easily hit spook lures when poppers and pencils aren't working. In 2019 I found a young Herring Gull that was tagged on one of its legs. I Googled info and sent some emails, eventually leading to a certificate of appreciation and all the info about that gull.

Awesome catch! Congrats! The power and aggression of those 34" fish vs that huge cow always amazes me. The term I use is, "wild, crazy teenager vs drunk old man".

I just bought this bed extender from Harbor Freight yesterday and it wobbles so much. On top of that, when I raise the crossbar to its highest setting, it still sits below my tailgate. Not much help if it doesn’t touch my kayak. Maybe adding a pool noodle will help? I’ll have to try before taking it back.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpnVdZuQj89oqbc "You like pink, huh? I like pink too. See ya later." HAHAHA!! Wise words. Just ordered my new Salty today and can't wait till she arrives!

Really cool seeing the top down view from the drone, you should do more collabs with Chris in the future!

Good video
