CHASING Summer REDFISH in My Kayak - Louisiana Saltwater Marsh Fishing

Today, I'm fishing the saltwater marsh of Louisiana's coast to catch some keeper-sized redfish. I pushed my kayak to it's limits today and it paid off!

I noticed a really cool hidden detail in the water after uploading between 07:15-07:20. Anyone else notice?

A red darted right past you if I’m not mistaken haha. I hooked onto a 40 inch+ before out there and it snapped my 30lb test like it was nothing. I will definitely be back out on the water in August, can’t wait

[@theangriestangler]

@@christopheralcazar8031 You got it! Man, I cannot wait to hook into a 40 inch or bigger

Was that Lena lagoon? Looked like it.

Nice video and well done again. Man some good looking water. That kayak cruises now!! Interesting how after a hook set - especially with tide coming to you - the reds will run toward you so fast that it feels like you’ve lost them. That’s when a very high retrieve ratio on your reel pays off. Can catch up to that fish and keep tension on. I use Lew’s Speed Spools and either 7.5:1 or 8.3:1 ratio. Fun fishing with those spinner baits. I recently used a chatterbait and had same good success. Hoping for some morning topwater soon as well. Way to go and good luck ahead. Cheers!

[@theangriestangler]

Thanks, I appreciate the tips! I saw that chatterbait video, awesome stuff! I'm gonna try for a topwater bite soon. It'll be crazy if I catch a topwater redfish before a bass, but with how much time I've been spending saltwater, I think that's likely to happen! Didn't end up making it into this video, but I went way up into the marsh and found some crazy clear water with a handful of redfish up real shallow. There was a ton of grass/vegetation, but I sight fished it for about two hours and they didn't want anything I threw at them.

I caught the biggest Black Drum last year in Dulac, LA. I can't wait to go back with my new yak and land some monsters. That water looks much cleaner than here on the Atlantic ICW, good job.

[@theangriestangler]

Thanks man! The water looked great this trip. I've been wanting to check out Dulac. What kind yak are you rolling with?

@@theangriestangler Just picked up an Old Town PDL 106, I fished out of a PDL 120 and fell in love with it.

Great video! I kayak fish out of Hopedale all the time. I’m getting my kayak rigged up with a trolling motor this week. Looks like getting the extra distance really made a difference for you this trip. Hoping for similar results as well! Were you up in St Malo?

[@theangriestangler]

Thanks man! You won't regret it. It is a real game changer out there. I was very close to St. Malo in this video, but didn't have to go that far out to catch em.

[@smsaenz]

@@theangriestangler Awesome, my dad is in town this weekend, so I think we'll head out there this weekend and test it out!

[@theangriestangler]

@@smsaenz Good luck! Let us know how it goes. I'll be out there again this Friday, but in a boat instead of the yak this time.
