I was told never to hang from the handles or scupper holes. I think it would be so much easier to do it just this way maybe another through the center to help keep the yak from deforming

Good suggestions, thanks for that. Havent seen any deforming yet, but I will keep an eye on it

Holy Rainbow Football Batman! Nice fish! Well done! I fished there my first time last year and we caught a few good ones from shore. My caught a chubby rainbow in his float tube. Those golden aspens make a beautiful backdrop to enjoy a leisurely day of fishing! Looks like a memorable experience to say the least.

I think it's Jackie rather than Shadow. Not to dis Jackie but I think Shadow would have had the fish sooner :) He's does it more often and he brings her fish, not because she can't fish but, you know, if he does it faster why not just let him catch the fish and bring it to you, right? You go, Jackie!

Nice trout session! Are you planning on taking the yak to the ocean like Cabrillo or Del Rey? the way you have your yak rigged, it’s perfect for the ocean.

Is there access to inside of the kayak to run wires? I'm considering this model. I want to put a trolling motor through that box and put the batteries in the back. But I don't want the wires on the outside and I don't want to drill holes

Good vid man, I keep my bigfish 120 on a 12 foot utility trailer, Im in the process of adding your trolling motor set up to both my wifes and mine, got the adapters also and will be ordering a couple rod holders also because I also like to troll swim shads for stripers, question ? do you ever get in your kayak at the boat dock so you dont get your nfeet wet ? Thanks from PA, and good fishing man.

This how I saw my first bald eagle out on the lake on a boat! there was a dead fish floating on top of the water the Eagle tried over and over he finally got it and left! I know people don't believe us when we tell them it happenedLOL too bad I didn't film it! just the other day I saw another bald eagle flying! ii was out on the back deck and saw a big bird and I saw that white face I couldn't believe it especially how far we are from the lake! but we do have a river up the road not far! they are so beautiful!

Just came across this now, a few years after it was shot; what an absolutely awesome footage!! I, too, watch the eagle nest cam, so familiar with the couple. Amazing to observe how the parent is working for that catch(I think it's Jackie, her wings are 'fuller'/broader) I also love how both of you (humans:) are awestruck by the sight of this beauty🦅 Thank you for sharing, great video!
