Catching Halibut On My Inflatable Kayak! -- Summer Fishing in San Diego Bay (Hobie Mirage Itrek 11)

[@BearzG]

What is up! Me & Ken went out and put the Hobie Mirage Itrek 11 to the test by hitting up San Diego Bay in "not-so-fun" conditions. Let me tell you guys this, it was quite an adventure and I do NOT recommend doing this unless you have a friend with you! So do yourself a favor, go have fun, experience new things and most importantly, be safe and have fun! - Bearz G

Good Father's Day for sure!ll Awesome Halibut! So close!

[@jarhead37]

Man I’m livin through your videos rn. Haven’t fished since the kid. But loving every video! Keep em coming. Got me cheering on the toilet 😂

[@SETSO-4L]

Hell yeah! Making me want to get one now

[@BearzG]

Do it, do it, do it!

[@Yak-life]

Nice Hali! Good to see you have your pfd on and buddy fishing. Get your self a no snag net🤙🏾

[@SDAnglersLife]

Bro you are hooked on kayak fishing now lol

[@BearzG]

Pun intended? 😂 Such a fun platform to fish out of, but shore pounding will always have my heart.

[@SDAnglersLife]

@@BearzGoh yeah absolutely. shore pounding is where I think most of us started from. I still shore pound often to keep me humble and remind me where it all started

[@kanakoa74]

Good video Tony… keep em coming!

[@blopez468th]

Great content! Looks like a gif Father's Day for you and Ken despite the conditions. Keep up the good work.

[@BearzG]

Thanks 👍

[@glenfishing]

Nice man! Yeah the conditions mean a lot more👍🏽

[@BearzG]

Most def.

[@Peterskillz]

You put the trek thru the ringer bro! Sick video

[@BearzG]

Damn right I did! Definitely gonna keep on doing so!

[@Peterskillz]

@@BearzG I need to stop messing around and just get one. The boat is cool and all but there’s something to be said about fishing on a piece of plastic being close to the water. Can’t wait to see more videos on the I trek!

[@BearzG]

@@Peterskillz most definitely! I'll do a full breakdown video of the kayak once I get more time on it!

[@jaimecruz8855]

Bearz g good deal man get ‘em brother

[@BearzG]

Yeww!

[@steveng3104]

First time watching your videos off the toliet. Hits different

[@Adankayak]

Nice catches brother 😊 I’ll see you out there one day. 🤙

[@mikeroll9868]

Nice fishing. I too caught a 21 “not to far from that one on Wednesday before.. We also had some other shorts and missed what felt like a couple of le gals. We were using jigs and live sardines. Maybe I’ll see you out there . I am fishing. 11.5 RIB.

[@jrr0204]

I like everything about kayak fishing from the surf except the paddle back in. I literally flip almost every time. It’s tricky getting in on those waves. If you at all get turned sideways it’s over 😂

[@Ian-W]

Thinking of getting one of these for fishing the bay and local lakes. At what point does the wind become an issue?

[@BearzG]

@@Ian-W 14mph winds.

[@Ian-W]

Right on. Thanks man!!!

[@BearzG]

@@Ian-W just don't Skip leg Day

[@Sir.Pharoah]

Really getting out there N a kayak or boat is a lot better than shore pounding.... Great video

[@GrimReaper68440]

Hey Bearz G, kayak fishing is a blast! I have an Oldtown Bigwater 132pdl, and I love it. San Diego is fun an all. But there are soo many other places to fish on your kayak. I went to Dana Point Harbor 2weeks Sunday. Caught my first ever Thresher shark 🦈 from my kayak. Best catch this year. It was a small one 63inches long, and 25pounds. They literally launch themselves out of the water. Best fish fight for me by far. Anyway take care .

[@714_oc_fishing-CHF]

Great job Tony! Where was the net?

[@BearzG]

At home.

[@stevencasillas7039]

Spanish landing is a great place to launch a kayak from. Park across the street to the left of the Hampton lot for free.

[@Jason_Voorhees.]

Another banger, youre brave fetting out there in that thing 😂

[@poersch86]

Kayak fishing is awesome, why did you get an inflatable one?

[@BearzG]

I have explained that in my first kayak video.

[@SETSO-4L]

This foo said in his AE86 Corolla 😂

[@BearzG]

😂😂🤣

[@marceloamador92024]

Outboard is next ! ! And some of tjose reels will end up on offer up , ill take daiwa mq

[@klinatoc]

Happy belated Father’s Day. Did pretty good that day. How was the wind on the kayak?

[@BearzG]

I was getting tossed around pretty good with the wind. But we were able to manage.

[@jammerk65]

buy a real Kayak !,,, i just got a Brooklyn 3 piece modular kayak delivered today, very impressed with the quality !,, cant wait to try it out !,,, they are on sale right now !

[@BearzG]

Nah

[@FishinPhil123]

Keep the grips on the fish or he will launch out of your measuring device. As a kayak fisherman for several years it is easier to bring a small measuring tape for legal purposes. Take colored electrical tapes and measure on your fishing rod from the butt. This way you can put the rod vertical on the kayak and hold the halibut up to it tail touching the kayak with the grippers. Tom Hams Light House.

[@FishinPhil123]

Add 1/2 inch for grippers in moutth.

[@billb2094]

Absolutely, you need a friend and a inflatable life jacket. Does this mean that you are going to abandon shore fishing?

[@BearzG]

That's the plan! Haha, just kidding, nah, shore fishing will always have a place in my heart.

[@db8633]

Its only 118 here bro, getting my lines wet! Daddy!!! 😂🥺🥺🥺 I😢😢😂 mudahsukah!!!;🎉🍻🍺

[@BearzG]

Only 118. Sounds like a you problem hahaha. Mudda sukkkaaa

[@ivanjdm619]

Burning out the spot 😂. You should have launched from Spanish landing.

[@BearzG]

🙄

[@SDkd619]

That was awesome 🤙 thank you for putting in the leg work to get some halibut for us to see. 🤌🏻

[@BearzG]
