FIRST Kayak Tournament Of The Year (Hobie BOS)

This is the biggest kayak tournament i've ever fished, and it was very eye opening. First, this lake fishes a lot better than I thought previously. Second, these guys are good but with enough preparation anyone can take it! Thank y'all for the support! Get out and go catch some fish!

[@disturbed685]

Much love Larry! Been watching you for a long time. You put me on frittsides, great budget combos, and a new way to work a frog! Love seeing you fish tournaments and put in work! Cheers to a successful 2024 for you and the fam! Both on the water and off.

[@cullemallkayakfishing9563]

[@enonek2960]

[@nancymills5993]

Nice job!! I like your positive attitude. Practice makes perfect. You’ll learn more each tournament you fish!! 🎣

[@anthonypetrini5364]

52nd out of 91 people that’s not bad at all I’d definitely come in last

[@ZackFindsFish]

Great Job

[@enonek2960]

"CLEAR!!!" Don't die on me Bass! Stay away from the light, SWIM with Jesus! 😢

[@dashbye]

Yuh great vid

[@AnglingWithTom]

When using ned rigs they have a tendency to swallow so I just give a slight tug to set the hook instead of trying to rip them out of the water. Great sportsmanship and showing you care about their health.

[@rayhollingsworth2588]

No shame Larry you fished hard and caught fish. It just wasn’t your day to win the money. Thanks for bringing us along 👍

[@D-Rod95]

Great vid

[@danablackburn1681]

Love your videos. But you always say let’s go boys. There are females who kayak fish and watch you too. Keep up the great videos!!

[@nonstopfishing5855]

Solid Tournament my boy when fishing a ned rig You don't really need to set it to hard it's more of a reel into the fish set keep grinding good job

[@bigmoemedina313]

You sure lost a lot in the tournament Larry, not just the entry fee but also a whole combo!! 😮 I think you are much better than this Man, look at Dave Blanchard or Damian Thao for example, I think those guys are pretty good leads to follow, nothing wrong with that. Chin up Papa, you’re good at this, win a freaking tournament for us!!

[@HiQualityH2O]

That accidental kill happens a lot bro especially with small lures like neg rig.

[@finndodge8907]

that’s just fishin

[@BostonDonDaDaShark88]

Tighten the drag a little on the bigger ones just saying 😂 no hate love the videos brotha and 2 of America's Most Wanted w tupac snoop dogg ect. The song or a old snoop song

[@nonfatkibbles]

Maybe someone else has insight but could it maybe have been the air bladder in the fish needed to be purged and that's why it couldn't go down?

[@nuffypuentes73]

Do you put backing on your spinning reel then put braid?

[@smalltownbassfishin1247]

Keep at it bro! This is jist the beginning. P.s... who won the reel lol 😅😂

[@001062224]

What mount are you using for the LVS?

[@HiQualityH2O]

Why didnt you use that app at the end to see where u wanted to go was clear or not?

[@Sneakers_guy]

What up

[@johnjohnson5933]

Sometimes if you hook their tongue it does something to them . Nothing you can do !

[@dd214fishing]

Good luck with that tournament man you don’t fit the narrative so it’s hard to break that club 😂

[@xxPigpen]

No thanks Joe
