All Day Kayak Island Fishing Indian River Lagoon Florida - Exploring New Waters!!

[@packersr2hard]

Rich, i met you one day recently down at the Manatee center. I came over and introduced myself and you said you were headed out trying for permit with crabs. I've been waiting for the footage brother. Hope you didnt get skunked. Very cool meeting you, keep the footage coming. Hopefully that Fort Pierce footage!

[@packersr2hard]

Dude you covered ground in this one. Nice trout. When I was a kid wading with dad there were so many more trout and fish in general in river

[@christian_csm_]

Best thing to wake up watch Flair, then Field days and now Fishaholic 🔥

[@phyminzaw9296]

Dude I like ur clips and I'm waiting more deep sea fishes if u can.

[@mikeyalvarez9153]

Love fishing the Indian river but there is so many rays and skates there and also catfish

[@markm391]

Nice trout! Looks like a really cool spot to explore 🤙🏻 The production and drone action was on point as well 👍🏻

[@timemmons]

Another great video Rich. I’m fishing the southern part of the Indian river tomorrow and you got me pumped to get out there. Thanks a bunch

[@christopherraymond7848]

Goin drum fishing this weekend in NC, so excited. Love the video! Keep up the great work!

[@TeamBuffaloOutdoors]

Best of luck!

[@robertdiehl1281]

Thanks for taking the time to release that ray and send her back without a hook and line trailing from her.

[@genegribble6945]

Dude! This is was another great outing. The Savage shrimp just picked up at Academy. No luck this weekend at Beach n Board Fest. Really nice fish caught. Keep up the positive attitude, your attitude is contagious, keeps many of us thriving and us hungry for the next fishing trip. Great spot the Indian River lagoon.

[@billreid4597]

Thanks Rich! another good vid. Always enjoy your stuff. Livin the dream bub.

[@petermavus4131]

Waiting here for freshwater trout to open after cyclone bomb we had with snowfall.Only your beautiful weather vids keeping it sane.

[@curtmurdurk]

Nothing but respect for the grind you don’t leave until you feel as if you put in a days work

[@jasoncotherman6942]

Thx for your videos; I’m from Martin country to. Class of 2003- MCHS. Been fishing my whole life; looking to get into ocean kayak fishing…- cheers

[@natedawg88]

I've been wearing out the bluegill in St. John's river canals. Big ones too, can barely get my hand around them!

[@nckhed]

Nice. Those are always fun to catch.

[@lidochefgs]

That's my backyard, and I said to myself "Stingray", very soon after you hooked that big flat bastard....I used to be very casual about handling a hooked ray, until one buried it's barb under my thumbnail. It was one of the worst pains I've ever experienced....I was nauseous and heaved a few times, just due to the pain. I WILL NEVER be half-assed when it comes to handling a Ray ever again! But that area you were in is some of the best water anywhere when it comes to those three species you mentioned, unfortunately there is a hefty population of stingrays also swimming there......

[@phil2009ist]

No better feeling than waking up and seeing big homie Rich dropped a banger. LFG🔥🔥

[@ethan3704]

Its always a good day when fish a holic uploads!!

[@matthutch4216]

There is nothing like a fish whacking a popper. It is so exciting and gets the adrenaline going.

[@newman7910]

You’re getting me through this cold, snowy, relentless Indiana winter.

[@fishing-fanatic3427]

Amen to that I’m sick of this cold and wind.

[@Onewayto2024]

Beautiful shot of the rainbow behind you while you’re holding that trout! Way to go Rich!!!

[@jodyhiatt5284]

Nice and quiet spot is always nice

[@mwcinci]

One of the hardest working people in fishing! Nice catches

[@cathypacho9776]

Another Great Video Rich! 😎🤙🐟🐠🐟🎣

[@jowfishing]

I see amazing catching fish over there 👍🏾 Good job sir 😇

[@hamidoubakhti3426]

Good day, good luck to you, very nice fishing

[@surfingfireman]

Well done with the ray. Respect!

[@djsthemetereman]

I tell ya I'm a freshwater fisherman but watching this makes me more & more wanna fish salt water. Terrific action

[@danielfonvielle9487]

I switched years ago and never looked back!

[@obcession]

Felt you pain ….. and then had a chuckle, snagging the stingray. Been there done that with a cownose ray. Lol

[@Diresword88]

haha, nice Stingray :D. I had this happen a few trips ago. Was fishing an area bouncing a paddle tail through some pot holes and all of a sudden I was STUCK! Knowing there were no rocks around, I started popping my line, for it to all of a sudden start slowly moving and then take off....After 15-20 mins of fighting, got in about a 20-25 lb stingray.

[@philvogt7671]

My favorite bait to throw when exploring is a white fluke. Actually. I throw a white fluke 9/10 times I go fishing lol

[@_srilankantraveler_]

Nice another..great episode thank you for sharing with us 🥰🙌

[@jorgeoquendo7837]

Oh man, what an effort you always put.

[@mikewhitaker2306]

Love your videos lived in Florida many years of my life was a die-hard fisherman there wish I could move back there

[@maxhaughin371]

Nice release on that Ray! I would've been crapping myself

[@FISHGEEK007]

When we go fish the marsh in Southern Louisiana that copper bladed spinnerbait is our go to Redfish killer. Sightfishing and blind casting hard to beat. So funny you put that shrimp on and as soon as you got away from the mangrove and threw it out into the open water flat I thought to myself. Trout and bang you caught one. Most of the deeper "bowls" in the open water out there will hold Trout. Not sure what it is about those bowls it's like even if it's a foot deeper they seem to lay in them. Dandy trout at the end brother. You need to try that flat down by JB causeway. It's money in the winter

[@deanmarten]

Man, great day. You worked hard to make it a great day.

[@peterbuff9750]

Yeah it happens often with cow nose rays. Had quite a few snagged on bucktails in back bays (west north shore LI). Only thing you can do is drag them to shore 🤣

[@ebx2323]

Pretty cool that you didn't take the easy way out when you hooked that ray! Cheers on another great video!

[@CustomerSupport-d1f]

Just found your channel. Good content. Try the Z-Man Spitting shad or frog with a 4/0 or 5/0. You can skip them up under the trees with a spinning rod and get the fishing hiding under the trees. Can't do that with many baits. You can see videos on YT.

[@dabonemarrow5337]

Luv the soundtrack quite tranqulle!!!!

[@reddogleader1968]

I am looking forward to seeing you net a 40" Snook with that St Croix 2021 Mojo Inshore Spinning Rod.

[@DRA513]

Way to hang in there on a tough day!

[@blizzington4528]

I can’t wait to try my dartspins I bought the one in every size and the big one looks super good

[@MarvinDSancho2011]

my favorite videos are from florida..... no quiestion i love the montauk ones but florida is where its at for me.

[@PMPbigfish]

amazing spot my friend. success always for my friend 👍

[@ITigerbaum]

Looks like your luck has changed, or possibly fertile ground that doesn’t look beat down. I know you feel good!

[@wulandaychannel587]

Nice picture friends. God job four you

[@geraldgailey1664]

I live in Florida and love your videos! Great quality. I’ve been thinking about hitting Indian River once it warms up a bit. We saw Tarpon in August in IR so I know they are there.

[@TeamBuffaloOutdoors]

Great drone shots!

[@theloosemoose8200]

I just fished this same area 3 days ago, it's still transitioning from winter there so it was rough (mostly Jack's and trout) I didn't see any snook.,good job on the grind... I'm fishing rose bay now

[@vertice3579]

Looks like i’m fishing the wrong areas. I’m mostly fishing around the power plant to stuart inlet. Got some pretty poor results recently.

[@theloosemoose8200]

@@vertice3579 central Florida fishing during winter is rough for everyone. You need to target reds/trout/sheepshead (even those fish hide in their respective comfort areas).. right now is spring transition and over the past week I've been having to find them scattered around as they seek new waters... Jack's/snook/ flounder ect moving in from big water inlet areas... Bait fish are slowly moving from shallow safe zones to open river and that's been the easiest way to spot bigger fish as of this week, spotting surface strikes and targeting points at Creek mouths... We've also been having weak tides the past week but that will change as of this week .. you're gonna see things really pick-up after the 15th

[@FISHGEEK007]

@@vertice3579 if you are talking the creeks on Hutchinson you need to get out on the flats by the mouths of those creeks and there should be a decent Trout bite but other than that it's tough for another few weeks

[@vertice3579]

@@FISHGEEK007 Yes haven’t fish the flats but mostly the mangroves area and structures. Moved 2 years ago in Jensen so i’m learning a lot. Even sheepsheads have been hard to target for me , but i keep grinding.

[@vertice3579]

@@theloosemoose8200 thanks , looks like you know the area well. Are you moving spots a lot ? I find myself going back to similar area and based on your comment i may have to move more.

[@mattraven69]

Fishing bucket list to outfish you at all your spots. ^^^

[@kennethbeyer6576]

I grew up there where you were fishing I won't say the name of the place. It's hard fishing during the day and especially on an incoming tide. The shoreline further to the east closer to the beach holds a lot of reds in the afternoon and so does that clump of sticks you're fishing next to great video good catching

[@czwest7845]

Nice Trout Beauty!!

[@pmhum]

Great job. 👍

[@Chaoswolf5678]

Great content as always! You deliver the best!

[@joeymuhleisen1759]

I do a lot of work in the Vero beach area all I ever see are dolphin. Probably why you see more quality than quantity. Love the channel! Best of luck to you

[@mauritobias8759]

JUICY VIDEO DUDE 🤙🤙🤙

[@hsidder]

Mad props for taking the extra effort with the ray, knowing the risks with the Barb. True fisherman!

[@bdr5150]

Yea man that was really cool to see!! Just because it isnt the species you are after doesnt mean you have to treat it like a piece of trash! The ray was pretty chilled out too! It really never thrashed around and just swam away slowly.

[@ciscoterres717]

yay! fishing in the morning with my cup of coffee.

[@jejakumancing5376]

Love watching you video lur 🙏

[@ddaverr]

Need some catch' n cooks this summer.

beautiful trout!

It’s 23 degrees here I envy the weather😂

Are u heading to NJ for stripped bass soon 🤙🐟

[@FormallyDarth]

Thats Awesome i was there A few week's ago!

[@meytal_rockz6669]

Live to fish Fish to live!!!

[@Brandon-nj2vo]

Ive fished that area damn near my whole life. Popping bobber and topwater and doa (or vudu shrimp) work best in those areas imo. You should try to fish haulover canal at the mouth for them 50 inch reds and mogan black drum! Good luck to ya 🐟

[@nickt423]

Those Fishaholic poppers look pretty cool! I may have to get a couple. Been looking for a Smack-It type lure for a while now

[@brvhrtwtw]

If you could do a fishing video in Marathon, Florida Keys that would be awesome! 🤙🏼

[@DanyRivard]

I just subscribed to this interesting KZbin channel!!

[@joespear915]

The tail on that ray isn't going to hurt you. You just have to watch out for the sharp barb in the middle of the tail.

[@battlefieldoutdoors]

Sitting here at work selling kayaks, wishin' I was catching those snook and trout!!

[@Countrygirl-k6o]

Beautiful fishing location ✓

[@LGHHN]

Pretty Trout, the spots, his shine, the size. Dont get them that perfect here in Tampa.

[@lee8287]

I would love to fish for spanish with you this summer in NC. I fish the same areas Elias is in.

[@RICKYL100]

Hey rich are you going to check out bull bay rods and Florida fishing products reel, I live in Rhode Island but those setups look sick! There’s a place in Narragansett ri that sells the rods I’m going to pick one up, anyway another great vid love it, wish I was in Florida! Almost striper season here. Can you please let me know your settings for the go pro I’m new to it and going to start making videos and yours always come out so good thanks

[@rememberHAZARD]

I'm gonna drag my Outback up here to the space coast region pretty soon if you need a partner out there

[@nsbstrong3624]

New Smyrna here , keep it up

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

Man.. you work hard on your trips.. keep grinding.. ✌🏾

[@CoastalBendFishNinja]

Great video and day fishing all the way around. While the trout were really nice…we have always considered a gator to be anything over 25”. Know others that even say over 28”🤷🏼‍♂️👀. What size do you consider a gator?

[@cawfeecatt1553]

26:58 you could call it a rainbow trout now

[@cawfeecatt1553]

have you thought about getting a sail for the outback?

[@novaday8813]

Can we get some more live mullet on perhaps a popping cork??

[@Trophyseaker]

Great video! How do you like that mojo inshore?

[@giveawaysweekly3387]

that stingray is huge you are so lucky you didn't actually hook him cause those sometimes take like an hour to get them off the bottom sometimes when they suction under the sand

[@mikefred55]

I have snagged 2 large rays like that. Great fight but a bit disappointing too.

[@blowakiss4u143]

Love watching your videos. I just moved to Florida and I'm looking to getting into fishing. Would like to hear more stuff in your videos in regards to fishing laws so I can learn from you! Any resources you use would be cool to know as well! Keep on fishing and we'll keep on watching!

[@hkilic03]

Dudeeee I felt your pain when i saw the ray… I was expecting to see a big red.

[@LGHHN]

You should check out the Tsunami Live Action shrimp, A lot of colors and it rattles, They come in a 3 pack for 7$ Quality isnt amazing but alot cheaper than these other Live Action shrimps out there.

[@trancemusic8805]

any reason you don't bring any live bait? live shrimp or pilchards always perform in those environments the best for me

[@aaronchilders2299]

I’m going to Florida next month near the top of key largo what’s some baits I should use

[@bubba2858]

Awesome

[@252chase]

Try a popping cork with doa or gulp

[@dylanliquard9333]

When’s the trip back up north?

[@troygladle9863]

Looks like ya moved down to the Treasure Coast. Here full time now?

[@chsangler4717]

Hell of a trout! Beat my pb by 2 inches

[@mikewilliams9286]

Pro move not reaching into the net with that ray. Nothing worse than starting your day with a hot poker to the arm.
