Best fishing show on the interweb. I enjoy the modifications to the kayak and then their usage. 👍

[@francus7227]

There's SO MANY fishing shows. I am a subscriber to two. Steve and Key West Waterman. He is really good, too.

[@greenman4508]

@@francus7227 I subscribe to several, the only time I stopped watching this channel over the years was when it was too depressing how I couldn’t go fishing because I was buried in work. Most of them are pp teases and I don’t like getting manipulated, I try to watch one in every region to see how and what they fish for there. I’m up in Maine so key west seems exotic.

[@francus7227]

@greenman4508 Try Key West Waterman.... It's really good. He does a lot of underwater time.... He puts out one clip a week. He always addresses comments... But only for the 1st hour after the clip is released. I love Steve and have been just as complementary of him. Aaron is great, too. Good luck in Maine. I am N. Florida raised. I need a tropical climate.

[@greenman4508]

@@francus7227 yes I’m subscribed to them, don’t get alerts tho. I’ll double check. Good fishing to ya!

[@anthonyvespia6662]

Nothing better than getting my morning iced coffee. Watching a new Steve video, in my truck, in the A/C. 😎 🎣

[@johnminoughan9386]

Steve has the most modified kayak on the web. Brilliant ideas & knowledge.

[@chrishaupert6807]

Where is that ramp? So hard to find easy spot to launch kayak and be able to leave jeep and trailer safely,

[@JacksGoneFishing-kh6zh]

Nice! Juvenile tarpon are crazy..

[@francus7227]

No additions or corrections. I'm just feeding the algorithm monsters before tapping the thumbs up 👍 button.

[@pepepepito623]

That Bimini road goes all the way to your ramp.

[@shugardad]

He got a new hat!

[@floridamanfishing1390]

It's been a while. Awesome video, sir. Can't wait till I get my Kayak back but for me they are a lil expensive Any Website or company you recommend for a setup like yours sir

[@miamiwax5504]

Has he ever done an episode about getting lobster?

[@johnrickards1908]

Yep, look back through his upload history, it's worth it! 😊

[@dww0013]

Nice cuda

[@pchinnIII]

Seems like every saltwater video where barracuda are taken they are hated. When I was a child almost all my fish drawings were either of sharks or barracudas. I thought they were the coolest fish in the ocean. Another memory taken down.

[@johnrickards1908]

"20lb bonefish" Did I miss something Steve?

[@edorofish]

Are the anchor poles you're using solid or thick PVC?

[@Beck-h8f]

Just moved to marathon. Love your videos. I’m having the toughest time finding bait for fishing from shore for snapper fishing. Hoping to save up for a kayak. Any tips for bait?

[@Charliesreptiles597]

First ❤❤❤

[@billmoss5624]

👍😎✌

[@HIFI1965]

We just spent two weeks in Marathon, and all we got was wind. Every time I see your vid, nothing but glass..... just sayin'. Cheers.
