Dude! It’s hard enough landing a big tarpon from a skiff with a guide - but solo from a kayak? Mad skills.

[@ITigerbaum]

And managing cameras and microphones at the same time. A master of his craft.

[@roysaari3028]

Sweet tarpon!! Appreciate you taking us along!! Thanks, Rich!!!

[@lee8287]

Nothing better than keys kayak fishing videos

[@seanhall4098]

The back to back Champ ! Kayak game is unmatched !

[@johnmcinnes6644]

What a catch! And single handed in a kayak!!

[@pigsandapples]

Absolutely epic! The skill and patience to land that big tarpon (wind,current,structure) truly impressive.

[@michaelcohen2345]

Love the amount of recent videos!

[@topgunne12]

Great to see you got a new graph. It's about time!!!

[@Big_Bend_Benji]

Love the video!!! Glad you are always finding ways to make it into the keys! Those tarpons are massive fun fish, always wanted to catch one but they always escape at the last second! Great video!!!

[@aarongonzalez1382]

Two epic tarpon battles in one video! Just doesn't get much better than that! 😉♥

[@johndrever6842]

Great job

[@adjusted-bunny]

Daiwa is the best reel manufacturer out there. Closely followed by Shimano.

[@GabeG0esFishing]

Wonderful vid rich!

[@Waldo183]

Very impressed! I've caught tarpon from the kayak and it is not easy!

[@bretburt7317]

That was a kayak beast!

[@brunobarks6544]

Always top notch. Damn nice fish 👍 thanks again

[@STONERCREEK1]

When I was younger, my mother thought my hemostats attached to my fishing gear were being used for something else when I was on the water. 30-40 years later I still don't thinks she's convinced.

[@petermavus4131]

Crushin it Rich....Tarpon takeoffs are awesome

[@Lilbroblake1]

Your videoes are the best!!!!!

[@cuellito69]

Loved the video. You had a good battle with that tarpon.

[@josiahkeefer4765]

Next step... making your own paddletails. It's a blast! Great video.

[@youngcarll]

Nice work man

[@franzsperginand113]

What a monster

[@michaelzsizseri8015]

Awesome video rich. That's the tarpon way

[@jaymccarty8994]

Good one, Richie Rich!!

[@SnookClub]

That was awesome Rich! Don’t worry about that second tarpon, it was super windy and the current was ripping good. 1 for 2 on a kayak under those conditions is pretty amazing in my opinion.

[@mackleroy2702]

Hey brother, sorry about your truck yesterday at sandpit, I was the guy with the small black truck, I wish there was more I could’ve done to save it. This is just a bump in the road brother, you handled yourself well in the situation. Keep on keepin on brother and continue making that great content for us, we enjoy and appreciate you Rich! Tight lines!

[@FishAholicTV]

Thanks so much bro! The only thing I can think to do after this is to go fishing haha. I’m really bummed but it is what it is. 😔

[@mackleroy2702]

@@FishAholicTV I pray the Lord blesses you with an even better truck brother, keep on fishing, it’s in our DNA… 😀

[@johnrobertson111]

That's what iam talking about!! Silver King!! Great video bro!!!

Rich is the best fishing youtuber without a doupt this men is a beast at what he does 🎉🎉🎉deft my fav..am here laying down with my baby son watching rich catch dinasour from a kayak 😂🤣 btw is 99 degrees in miami right now is very hot 🔥🥵

[@davidbangtson3109]

Those were some fish! I can't even imagine catching a fish that big.

[@williamlutsch4259]

Hope you dont mind transplants coming from CO… cause ypur videos have single handedly convinced me to start selling all my mountain gear and am heading down to Melbourne in 1.5 yrs

[@aaronland7701]

Hey Rich, great content

[@MiguelAngel-gg6hc]

Nice fish bro

[@VitaminDeeTV]

When you finally landed that fish I was happy for you dude! I know you cut a lot of that fight out of the video. Some dicey moments there! Good stuff bro!

[@2Cool4Ryan]

The mulligan + dr.juice (from SaltStrong) = deadly combo.

[@BOZZALLINI]

Great catch! Hey I might be wrong but I don't see the link fir the hooks u aid u was going to post...if I'm not mistaken

[@johnhamilton9991]

What a fight and what a fish! You managed that first tarpon fight extremely well. Well done. 👍

[@FishAholicTV]

Thanks so much John I’m glad you enjoyed!!

[@jimrouth2998]

Really interested in the hook and mold you used to make the jig. I also make my own jigs a have a problem with hooks opening on larger striper. Any help with what you use would be appreciated.

[@phillumbroso4592]

amazing

[@ralphzaccaria7420]

Nice! And your life jacket didn’t blow up this time lol

[@richardwarfield7386]

Nice Fish Rich ! Was she about 60" ????? Right on Brother

[@kbyoo36]

I am enjoying the video you uploaded and thank you. If I could give you one piece of advice, it would definitely be helpful if you could post the specs of the equipment you're using on the right or left side of the screen.

[@rodrigocassio2621]

[@davids11131113]

SquidTrex are nice but a pricey lure, seem to be worth it though

[@KowboiK]

What's the name of those Jig Heads...some good hooks. That Tarpon was magnificent.

[@sweetcup6694]

@ 18:00 what was that stone you used to sharpen the hook?

[@JoeMaitlen-tw8wj]

I saw a comment that daiwa makes the best reels . I like pflueger products . They last a while.

[@jpg1789]

The second tarpon is making me wandering what really happened. The leader looks like having a few inches frayed. Is that correct? If so it doesn’t make sense. It was a new leader. Do you believe that fighting too hard wouldn’t frail it?

[@charlesjones6797]

What brand is the kayak your using?

[@erikb8827]

That was an awesome video Rich!!! I'd be high for a month after that

[@FishAholicTV]

Thanks so much!!! I was pumped for awhile after this catch!! I tried again the next day but only jumped two smaller ones. Then caught loads of bait for the next day which will be the next keys episode 🎥 😎

[@Nextlevup]

Nice was that the biggest tarpon you ever caught

[@pete5137]

What brand and model kayak are you in ?

[@fishinglagi5979]

Rất tuyệt vời

[@joelwcarter8058]

try trolling paralell to the bridge sometime,see what happens

[@brianbalgobin2612]

Why is current important for getting more bites ?

[@levipaulsen2050]

so the first tarpon you caught was your biggest then?

[@FishguyVR10]

That was a huge tarpon

[@garrettsondgerath9877]

Honestly being a Floridian who’s caught a ton of tarpon. It was small/average. Under 50/60 pounds. But super badass to catch on kayak.

[@FishguyVR10]

@@garrettsondgerath9877 well I’m also a Floridian but my biggest tarpon was about 20 pounds

[@garrettsondgerath9877]

@@FishguyVR10 if you can take a trip to boca grande around may-late June. You’ll hook into nothing smaller than 100 pounds. Live crab / mullet / or threadfins guarantee you’ll catch em if you can get on a pod

[@anthonydevillets3998]

When are you gunna go back up north ????

[@GAFisherman]

Your Mom and wife will be ready to get out and check out the area. You'll be ready for a nap when you get home.

Do you use a specific type of fishing pants?

What’s the code for the DR juice

[@Castaway_Custom]

Sheesh I came in third this time

[@donpostma7136]

What’s your best guess on size of that first Tarpon?

[@backontheyak]

Rich, withe the success of your channel, you mean to tell me that you couldn’t reach out to hobie and ask for a discount on a new kayak? I mean you had that for sometime i’m sure you could use a new one like a 360 one and you could get sponsored by them. Seems like every-time you turn around your fixing something on it. Just saying

[@oscarlugoflores7244]

Hopefully is 40 pound braid ,

[@josephtrapanese3310]

So when are you moving to the keys?

[@FishAholicTV]

Hahahaha I’ve brought it up to the wife many times. We talk about it but I’m not sure if she likes only one road in and out of the area. Because of hurricanes.

[@robgrubb420]

and its if you can get it to catch on your fingernail, not scratch.

[@RobertPhillipssaysisiapiand]

Nice poon Rick, now you better get back to your mom cause we know if nobody else in this world loves you your mom does LOL
