Yea i thought i was keeping my kayak adventure simple. Just a paddle, kayak and a pole i said. Now i have a fully decked out bass fishing machine complete with a pedal controled trolling motor, side imaging, down scan, 2d sonar and mapping. Anchor wizard, deck lights, nav lights, spot lights. Thats not even including the copious amout of rods, reels, and lures i have aquired. Im sure im missing more stuff. Im not gloating about what i have and i feel very fortunate to have such a setup. This is just my warning to others, be careful because you can get sucked into the worm hole, lol. It took me a few years to build my setup and aquire what i have. Just dont think you NEED everything to get started right away. Start small and go slow you will aquire what you NEED in time.

Can the point of having 10+ rods explained to me. I can get having different rods based on whether you're going for smaller panfish or bigger bass but I don't understand guys having so many rods when you can only throw 1 at a time anyways
@freeamerican620Ай бұрын
@@zacheirikssonyou can only throw one at a time, but you can also have another rod with live bait down there while you thow 👍
@zacheirikssonАй бұрын
@freeamerican620 not everywhere is 1 place. Meaning different places have different regulations. Winter I may have 2 lines in the water. Summer I'm allowed 1 line with 2 hooks. Yes a treble counts as 1 hook

On long Island Sound the cops check boats to see if they have a bucket, portapotty or whatever and ticket those who don't. Very different world out there from 60 years ago when I first started fishing out there. Way too crowded for me now anyway.

A lot of military surplus shops sell some really high quality first aid kits, often coming in convenient zipper canvas pouches. Containing everything from scissors and tourniquets, to basic bandages. I also like to keep anti-venom with me since i often like to take advantage of shore casting positions i come across and we only have one species of venomous snake where im from so i only need one dose of one type.

Man, you are so right my kayak is very heavy I'm 58 Years old and moving my Old Town 120 PLD around can be a beast at times, so I did pick up that Vevor cart after watching your comparison video this cart is a life and back saver. Plus, I saved a few dollars. Great video bro keep 'em coming. Tight lines.

A PFD and a little extra flotation in the kayak are my must have safety items. And if I were to go out on ant Salt water I'd want an emergency radio/beacon. I bough a 10 foot recreational sit inside kayak and the first thing I did with it was to shove a couple pool noodles in the thing.

Sir I watched a Greg Blanchard video of him fishing in the morning on one lake and then going to another lake to fish. At the dock station they did a thorough walkthrough checked into his hatch and notice just a little water and grind at the bottom and they would not allow him to launch his boat disappointed, but he understood he is such a high class of character and shows us everything. I mentioned this to have a dry pad in your boat also just for that kind of thing to happen. I didn’t remember if you already mention it already or not, so I mentioned it.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS! Rod floats aren’t sexy, but thanks to your recommendation I use them and it saved me from losing 3 rods this month when my kayak flipped. (My wife would have lost her mind if $750 went to the bottom of the lake.) Also love how you stress wearing a PFD. It keeps you above water while you get your wits about you, or like you said, if you are compromised and can’t swim at your normal strength.

I know most people don't like them, but the visibility aspect is why I got a red kayak. I've had a few close calls on the water in my day and want to give the morons a chance to see me. Kayak color doesn't matter for fishing results either.
