Fishing the SWAMP! (Tournament on CADDO lake March)

[@jmccOutdoors]

Your casting is F-ing legit and I’m jealous. You’re putting lures in front of fish 90% of us never do.

[@kristinefischer2289]

🥲 thank you!! I’ve worked hard to be able to do that because I’ve learned when you’re fishing behind someone or fishing an area that gets a ton of pressure, making casts others can’t is the only way you’re going to get em

[@ShaneJMcNair]

That's the smile of success, hammer down Kristina... 🍺🎣

9:41 yoooooooo!!! Is there anything you can’t do ma’am!! You just get it done!

[@Jeff_Halligan_EPIQUE_Sandpoint]

you and Greg both, need to do a "skipping from a kayak" how to vid. Absolutely perfect skips ( not at all how mine seem to go. lol ) always fun to watch you having a good day on the water.

[@kristinefischer2289]

That is a good idea! I actually think it’s easier from a yak, you’re closer to the water

[@imn1ppystr]

skipping from a yak is the easiest form of skipping...

[@Jeff_Halligan_EPIQUE_Sandpoint]

@@imn1ppystr I seem to have a difficult time after learning to do it from a boat and shore. I just slam my jig into the water at high velocity. LOL

[@raffy313]

So impressed with your casting, specifically your skipping skills. I watch you and try to immulate your technique on the water but can't seem to get it on a consistent basis. Lol, still waiting on a little tutorial from ya when you get the chance. I know there's some small detail I'm missing. God bless and good luck with your tournaments.

Great video watching from Columbus Ohio 🐟🎣

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thanks for watching!

[@mmancino1982]

Gotta love when the braid sings

[@danielwebb5595]

Caddo is my most favorite place on earth. I grew up fishing there and I get there as often as I can. A blast to fish especially if you like shallow target fishing like I do. Not to mention it is absolutely beautiful.

[@kristinefischer2289]

It is truly stunning!!!

[@bobbychatterback]

Good Lord! Slinging that stick better than I can point at spots. Very impressive!

[@jking8828]

Nice fishing!!

[@mattblackwell4431]

Your casting is literally a thing of beauty! You make it look so effortless!

[@BellaMarie01]

I really wish we could fish together sometime. Because I need you to teach me your skipping. I have never seen anyone that can put the baits where you do. Hats off to you

[@johnwhite993]

Awesome catches Kristine. Loving the new hats.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thank you me too :)

[@juli82E]

I wish I could skip like that! Good Luck! I'll be stuck in an expo booth in Fort Worth this weekend wishin I was fishin!

[@adictosalapescaconpelonher9826]

Nice catch 👌

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thank you very much!

[@MSmith-jf5wo]

Way to go, Gal... I KNOW you'll get some "Good'uns" to add to your score. Keep on Skippin' them Lures (something I can't "master" yet!). Lol...

[@dawnparker2014]

I'm just learning how to skip. You make it look so easy. Worried about you when I saw those boats blasting thru there. Keep up the good fishing! Always a fan girl!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thank you!!!

[@christinerogers5331]

Amazing casting, skipping looks second nature to you! You've got a good start, keep that wonderful positive attitude and that beautiful smile and catch some biggins tomorrow! 🙏

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thanks Chrisitne ! I do it a lot so it almost is second nature !

[@AaronKellerFishing]

Man that lake looks sick! I remember when Greg Blanchard went down there and won the championship on a wacky worm!

[@kristinefischer2289]

They don’t call it the senko slinging lake for nothing 😂 I was trying to be different! I think Greg actually came in second!

[@garrettjohnson3458]

That wakebite bite is amazing

[@pars24]

Went there a week earlier. Was getting them on the trees as well with a craw, watching you makes me wanna come back this weekend. I need tp learn how to skip on a kayak, teach us please.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Need to do a vid

[@forrhs8430]

Another video that kicks butt! Thanks.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Aw thanks for the visit !

[@LillyLegacyWWOD]

The floating worm technique with the methiolate worm would absolutely kill in those cypress trees!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Actually tried that in practice

[@rogersmith8593]

Your skipping is a work of art. I really need to work on that technique.

[@johnjwedrall4290]

Happy St.Pats day 🎉😊!

[@vorteco7692]

Lol the tactical release at 12:05. That dink knew he belonged back in the water. Glad you were able to stay safe with all those moronic boaters around. Crazy… every spring. Lol The amount of times i see people full-out through marinas, no wake zones, and no wake lakes is astonishing.

[@kristinefischer2289]

That part cracked me up 😂😂

[@johnwarner4923]

Hey 👋.... been catching any more big hawgs .. I been getting some nice ones off the Berkeley flicker shad color. #7 series.

[@kristinefischer2289]

That’s a great bait!

[@plhauslein]

I love watching those throws under the branches!

[@johnwarner4923]

I love watching your videos. You can find em. ❤ good luck in your next tournament

[@MrCaissed]

Great casting at a very fishy looking area. If I lived around there I’d be fishing it daily!

[@louisianag]

Coming from someone who lives 25 minutes from Caddo I love seeing this. Past few weekends I've caught a 15lb bag everytime with 8-15 fish. Was wondering why I saw so many kayaks!

[@MrsAngelaMartin]

So glad you're back. Caddo resident Gma wishing you all the luck! Hope ya win it!!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thank you! I love Caddo!! You are so fortunate! ❤️👊🏻

@@kristinefischer2289 there's so many beautiful places to fish here. Johnsons marina is best to take the grands to. My mom and Daughter in law love potters point and my husband and I love to kayak carter's and the river. The beauty is unlike anywhere else. Thank you so much we all love that you represent strong women in this sport! Thank you for highlighting our your time here with us! Routing you on from the shoreline

My family has a camp on Caddo, I love that place. What launch do you typically fish out of? I haven't brought my kayak there in a couple years.

[@kristinefischer2289]

I spend a lot of time practicing;) thanks so much!

[@sbly318]

It’s one thing to skip, but quite another to skip it right on one’s head (3:50)

[@tomchalupsky5199]

How in the world did you get that rod without falling in? Magic!

[@williamjackson4150]

What parts of Caddo Lake did you fish in this video?

[@stevehogan8829]

Kristine, how often do you change batteries during a day of fishing in the back camera. Is that a go pro/? Love your vids. Yes, you're casting skills blow me away. I fish saltwater Kayak and just love watching you fish. People who don't kayak have no idea of how good you are.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thank you Steve!! I run my go pros and phone off one one Dakota lithium power box all day! Thing lasts me two days or more !

I did fish around there !

[@academicmailbox7798]

There's definitely an ergonomic factor working against the angler from the seated posture in the kayak, where casting and skipping is concerned. The real thing to do to mitigate back injury though, especially in early season where air temperatures are just not very warm (and temperature changes throughout day). Is to stay wrapped up with a 'one-piece' like as shown, or something that protects one's lower back areas from becoming cold. Whilst using those muscles a lot. The other thing that kayak anglers should maybe worry about is twisting sideways to make casting presentation (any basic manual handling teaching always explains it, how it's not a good idea). Be front-on as much as possible while doing tasks (it means that when one gets into more advanced years, one will still be able to perform tasks without making undue wear on the spinal parts. I think what kayaks will eventually have to look into, are some kind of outrigging components in order to stabilize the platform (that rotation of the seat and hull of the vessle is no good at all from a spinal point of view either). It's the individual elements of the spinal member which is having to constantly adjust itself to that. And there are limits on what our skeletons are designed to endure. Some kind of an outrigged component either side of the kayak to stablize it more, would enable the competition angler to stand and fish a lot more. Especially in dead flat water such as that.

[@BellaMarie01]

Do your perfer a shorter rod or longer rod to skip with

[@kristinefischer2289]

Shorter for accuracy and tight quarters. But I skip with a 7’6 also 😬

[@Adventures101.]

You definitely have to do a video 1 day on how to skip a lure from your ((kayak)). I watch you do it and it's amazing. I've tried just can't get it down. Would be an excellent video

It was pretty crazy - the guys that told me they loved my videos were the only courteous ones !

[@JamesJMadeThePlay]

I know everybody uses braid in heavy cover these days but in my experience heavily pressured fish shy away from braid at times, especially in visibility more than 2 feet. Maybe it’s just me imagining that for the last 20 years because it seems like other people have great luck on braid

[@kristinefischer2289]

It’s the most sensitive of all lines - so it has that going for it

[@troy.rogers]

Can you do a video on skipping please

[@paulroute8447]

when is your 2024 tournament on Caddo

[@shakeyfly]

what an absolutely cool place to fish. The fisheries up near me are all cookie cutter surrounded by houses unnatural

[@kristinefischer2289]

I’ve fished a lot of those too, and they aren’t my fav but, I’m still always glad to fish what I can when I can :) go get em!
