PFD

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

A PFD is important item but we covered that in a separate video.

[@WhatTheH3ll1000]

I love the rod holder idea with the cutting board. I may steal that one.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

A simple and cheap solution. It works well!

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

My PFD is a $20 snorkel vest. They are bright and you just wear it like a vest. No need to blow it up till you need it. The blow up valve is to one side of your chin!

[@Wofford1985]

Just wanted to say thanks for the fast talking and getting to the damn point. You're awesome!

[@edevans5991]

I live in the midwest but man, from my little experience sitting on top of a school of Spanish Mackerel in a kayak sounds fun as hell.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Spanish are fun to catch the first few times but we are fortunate enough to have a ton of other species to chase.

[@markluke8447]

Great tips. As a beginner kayaker, these are the types of insights that make my learning curve much more pleasant. Thank you.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching, Mark.

[@christopheranthony7644]

First time watcher. Just bought my first kayak to fish. I know nothing. So thank you for the info, but mostly not talking just to hear yourself talk like most. All info, to the point, no nonsense. Keep up the great work. Thanks again 👍🏻

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching, Christopher.

[@scottdacey1858]

When I first started yak fishing I brought everything under the sun. I found that it added more weight than functionality. I pared it down to no crate, a Plano compartmented box, select few lures and tackle and 2 rods. And found that I have more than enough room for a small cooler and my live baitwell.

[@drewbennett9287]

What kayak do you have?

[@gagelawson7879]

I’m a bass fishing angler but my family and I travel to Navarre once every year and I fish off the pier for Spanish and redfish. Might have to bring my kayak along next time we go. Love Navarre.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Bring the kayak it’s a fun place to fish!

[@averageeverydayfishermansh4501]

I happen to have all of those items (different brands/styles). I had to learn over the last six years that each one is important to have so this video is awesome for new folks!!! Save yourself some time and headaches and just get them as you can. You may only need the dehooker two or three times a year but it is a lifesaver...or finger saver...when you do. They really are that important! Great video and great info!

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching, Brent. Tons of awesome products on the market and the majority make our time on the water more enjoyable.

[@lukemckenzie07]

I always have a bailing sponge. Great for soaking up a wet deck or gear, then wring it out over the sides and good to go. The sponges that floor tile installers use are best I find. And an empty mayo jar for #1.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

The sponge is a solid idea but if you get the Predator/BigWater I don’t think you will ever need it. I’ve put guys in it over 280 lbs and never has water sit in the kayak.

[@janzencady4470]

I bought a yard stick and drilled it to the side of my kayak and it’s super handy

[@millsb90]

Super handy. Or super footy

[@yakattack_fishing8542]

My kayak has a 24inch ruler built in! Love it. Thanks for the video!

[@whysoserious5854]

Yo English subscriber here ... Nice channel bro

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching!

[@amateurangler9715]

Dang, I need a pair of those dehookers

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

They are very useful!

[@rubenakacoolerlid2314]

Hsi videos are very informative iv purchased a Transducer holder from him and he went out and purchased 2 additional length screws too fit my Autopilot

[@cocktailsanddreams]

Great video bro...we just started kayak fishing this past summer and loving it.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching!

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

#1 must have for me is MARKER BOUEYS! NOT for marking structure but to keep loose in the kayak so when it rolls... I KNOW WHERE ALL MY STUFF WENT! By the time you grab some stuff, get situated and try to triangulate where you are, you may have drifted 30 feet from where you actually rolled. Believe me, I never found anything the first time I rolled... a couple years later I figured out that I'd drifted a long way before I tried to figure out where I was.

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

Forgot to mention... DOLLAR TREE dog leashes! You get 8-10 for the price of a kayak leash.... "LEASH IT OR LOOSE IT!"

[@MrJeremygroseclose]

Yak leashes on Amazon. 4 pack is like $12 bucks

[@elitilapia9060]

Subscribed!!!! You have to do a how to video on that rod holder made from cutting board and pvc

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for subscribing! I can make a quick video about the rod holder. It's a pretty simple rig that never moves.

[@mikearcher6239]

Nice video and thanks for the links!

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching, Mike.

[@austinhernandez2716]

Also have leashes to tie to your important stuff you don't want to lose. If you flip over you could lose every thing.

[@budfahnestock2418]

i've found that just having the grippers in the mouth of most fish makes it so they can't close their mouth enough to get my while using my pliers, even way down in there

[@glennsowacke9752]

Awesome video!!! Thanks for the info Nic!!!!

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching, Glenn.

[@joemartin6439]

Thank you you’re the most great guy is see you use many old town kayaks .i hope the 120 is good?

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

The 120 is good.

[@ivancamp7716]

Its called a snap hook it snaps and it hooks thows thing are awsome.

[@pitchkapizda8355]

Great advise 👍🏼

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching!

[@FishingFinAddict]

Great vid filled with great tips! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks!

[@laddupholsterydesigns9801]

I carry 9 of the ten mentioned. Thanks for the video. I would add an anchor. Made a world of difference fore me. Sometimes you want to drift, sometimes you want to stay in one spot.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Great point! An anchor can be very useful. We fish a ton of shallow water so the push pole doubles as a stake out pole.

[@fourtyn9nerfan]

Great great videos! I need a bolt and a orange prop nut. I pick up my pdl 106 tomorrow!! My first pdl dive! I’m excited and been watching your videos all day! Do you have a store in town, Or just online? Also thanks for all the great tips!

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

We recently moved a bit north of Navarre and online orders are currently the only option.

[@mhough3]

Great vid!

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks, Mike. I hope a few of those ideas help.

[@topwaterpursuit]

Boom! you forgot to mention that BA Hoodie you got on, I prefer my two tone colored one myself.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

It is a sweet hoodie! I prefer the two tone as well.

[@Zenfit2000]

Great tips

[@peterlenhardt235]

Great tips but you forgot your PFD. Keep up the good work.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Thanks for watching, Peter. No one forgot the PFD it was covered in a different video. Can’t include everything you need in one video it would take hours lol

[@CastNBlast]

I’m try this thanks for the tips

[@chrisparker6800]

I've actually caught an 18 inch trout that was a gator. It's not the size of the fish it's how you hold it....

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Ha! In that case, I have a few fish to photograph!!!

[@MarkoAbo]

Nice video! But you should rename it "10 kayak BASS fishing must haves". I fish Chinook King salmon on the Columbia River in Oregon and I have no use for a push pole, a plastic fish grip, a hook remover or a measuring stick. Be well and fish on!

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Mark, we don’t fish for bass though. We use those items for a variety of species in the southern United States. Always cool to see the different requirements in other regions.

[@sykostudios7423]

Nice informative video bro. Thanks. What would u recommend to stop gators from coming after me while I’m trying to fish. Of course a gun is the most effective. But what if that’s not an option? Serious question btw. Thanks

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Certain times of the year they are super aggressive. I would just pick a different area.

[@RVsbladesnthangs]

Where can I see more detailed pictures of the one rod holder that you pointed at? The one on the cutting board material with the black rod holder on it. Thanks for the info Rip'n Lips!

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKHbZ5p9q7x6ZtE We will also bring releasing a version we produce in the next week.

[@dannystump4466]

How many rods do you carry and how do you rig them when inshore fishing? I am considering carrying 3. One for soft bait , One for top water , and one for live bait or hard plastic diving or spoons. Any suggestions or is that just to much? I’m not super fast at knot tying especially on windy days and want to spend more time fishing.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Danny, three is perfect in my opinion. I carry one with a topwater, one with a suspending bait, and one with a 3" soft plastic the majority of the time. It allows me to cover the entire water column without retying.

[@Handofseeds]

this may be a crazy question but do you sharpen your hooks? Im currently doing that with alot of them and I'm wondering if its a bad thing as in scraping off a coating that will make them rust quick.

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

I have never sharpened a hook. It may help but we have never had any issues catching fish!

[@mikeshanley7939]

#1, most muy importante “must have?” 3 letters: P F D

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Ya, we would put that into safety. Not rigging.

[@richbailey8174]

I am so glad I waited the 10 minutes to find out that #10 was kayak...who would of known?

[@EricElPescador]

Hey man, I’m looking for that measuring board. The link takes you to a frabil “L shaped” stick rather than a board like you have. Can you provide the details of the board you used in video?

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

That video has been around for sometime and it looks like the links have been changed. I use the yellow ketchboard these days and we sell it on the website - navarrekayakfishing.com/shop/ketch-karbonate-measuring-board/

[@rogerhall3061]

its like he went into Walmart and just picked random things and said they would be good plus ratchet straps will always be better then rope if you cant tie down a kayak with a ratchet strap you shouldnt have a kayak

[@NavarreKayakFishing]

Or he makes a living catching fish from a kayak and has a little experience...

[@rogerhall3061]

@@NavarreKayakFishing TRIUE COULD BE I COU;D BE WRONG

[@jamescroft3083]

I know how to tie a trucker's hitch. Much better than a ratchet strap. Seen a lot of failures with a strap. None with a properly tied rope.
