It’s driving me crazy watching you cast with your fly line twisted around your rod.😂 I can’t believe you don’t see it 😂

[@edwardholt2144]

fr bruh so annoying. 🤖

[@SproozGooz]

another banger Steve, even when you don't catch a lot of fish, your videos are always very informative

[@francus7227]

I love Steve's clips. But .... I wish he was still in Key West. He caught 10-12 different species. Now it's all tarpon and bones. I like mangroves, reef snappers, Spanish, Cerro, grouper, trout, reds, flounder, yellow tail, baracuda, tuna, bonita, and many more.....

[@corkycoursen-tv4wv]

Great video, sorry the worms were a no show…. Very informative vid. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@Backroad_Junkie]

Whew. From the thumbnail, I thought he just gave up on the kayaks, lol...

[@kellyf4238]

Steve, we've never seen you sit in the water and we've been following you for years. It was awesome! Lol

[@anthonyvespia6662]

Steve, I always love these flats, back country trips. And Especially, when i'm not out on my kayak, a Steve vid pops up. I would love to see you catch a nice Tuna, on one of your off-shore trips. 💯 🛶 🎣

[@robbertram3310]

I’m going to be at Key Colony on Marathon from 6/22 to 6/29, yellowtail and mutton at night, dolphin during the day (hopefully). I hope to see you out there!

[@scottwilsonrestoration]

fly rod casts a lot farther if the line isn't wrapped around the rod😄

[@rand0mGT]

Any dead bodies floating around Steve?

[@billmoss5624]

👍😎✌ .

[@DavidAbreu7777]

I have a dream. A tow behind floating solar panel towed by a power kayak. A 36v minn Kota. I watched a few bicycles tow a solar panel and thought someone needs a add a tow behind solar panel to a power kayak

[@pepepepito623]

The drag of "floating solar panels"... A "bank "on the hull in racks to keep them dry and some fashion like a fishing hat

[@garygiles6870]

if you lad a towel under your line that would help with your line tangle

[@jackdude2626]

FUN

[@JosephMontenegro-wr5gy]

Hey Steve do you go out to the Bahia Honda bridge for Tarpon fishing.

[@gwrulzmylife]

You're going have to invest in a polarized lens for the camera! 😅 I can't see nothing! 😭 You're yelling "Look at them!" and all I see are waves!

[@BigDipper79]

You wouldn’t see them with one. Stop whining.

[@Miamiwaterlife]

😂😂

[@MusMasi]

thought Palolo was only a Samoan word, they use it in hawai'i too?
