[@MarkEricksonArtist]

Great day of reds! Great video!

[@quang4055]

I live for morning like this, excellent video bro

[@nathansherwin8609]

Great to see so many nice reds back in the lagoon. Population wasn’t looking to great a while ago…

[@LeadMunitions]

Good stuff buddy! We run very similar setups👍 how’s your Newport been running? I ordered the kit that includes the threaded rod that the motor mounts with and use it in place of the rod with just the pins in it that is adjustable. It stops a lot of the motor vibration noise.

[@Sommertime_Outdoors]

I have been loving mine man! Might have to buy that kit you are talking about!

[@freshsaltyfries5078]

Nice work. Why did you switch from lynx to outback

[@Sommertime_Outdoors]

I still have the Lynx and I like to switch it back and fourth my main reason was my outback was already on the truck the night before this trip😅

[@curmit]

Killer video and great looking water. Bummer on the GoPro but those things are a love-hate relationship usually. Mine acted weird last trip and would randomly turn itself off for a couple of hours and then began working just fine. It wasn't hot enough outside to be overheated or anything, just some random attitude from the camera.

[@Sommertime_Outdoors]

The conversations me and my GoPro have off camera should be illegal 😂

[@curmit]

@@Sommertime_Outdoors That is so true, once you get used to talking to your GoPro it becomes second nature. The conversations range from good to bad to ugly on occasion. I have caught myself yelling louder and louder to stop recording only to realize that the camera was not even on because it decided to take a nap. Eventually, the time comes when you go fishing with somebody else who has never filmed anything and you get the constant question "Are you talking to me or that thing on your head". That's when you realize how much of a relationship you have with a little black box that only talks to you with beeps and no words yet so much can be accomplished when you are getting along well.

drone shot intro was out of this world... gonna keep it 100, and sorry not sorry, but you combine this with a more unique narration and some funny b-roll jokes and you're viral... so many fishing brands ask my main channel "why aren't I blowing up" and it's cause they're copying everyone doing the SAME THING... and you're doing the same (albeit with results) but with a little more Sommertime and a little less what you think people "want to hear" and you're there... fr man too many ppl hear this and say "tf do you know", but you and one other dude have quality and consistency like this to make it big. Make those small changes and you're gonna see huge impact!! Anyways, tight lines, much love, and legendary catches. Glad you're safe from the storm and looking forward to many more videos 🎣💪

[@Sommertime_Outdoors]

I appreciate this comment More than you know brother! Thank you for all the advice definitely been thinking the same thing gonna try and make more videos with my personality coming out a lot more!

[@curmit]

@@Sommertime_Outdoors I gotta chime in here in agreement, the formula to success on KZbin has a lot of things that can be copied or purchased but one of the most important is a unique personality that is captured on camera and how well it goes with the audience. There are untold amounts of channels that are trying to copy, copy, copy and in my opinion they are duplicating that annoying fake style that is not their real personality. Once I read @TheboundlessNexus's comment, I realized that you usually say one or two awesome quotes in each video while fishing that make me crack up. This video was "It's absolutely beautiful back here, it's going to be even more beautiful when there is a tarpon jumping, but this is pretty dang awesome so far". Next one was "The main goal is going to be catching some fish, ...... obviously". Forge your own way as much as you can and hopefully you will get better success than being a sheep in a huge flock that are plagued by not being unique or original. I gave up trying to narrate too much in my videos that I occasionally upload, knowing that I will likely never reach the point of monetization, now it is more about sharing a good day of fishing with friends than trying to impress people I don't know.

[@TheBoundlessNexus]

@@Sommertime_Outdoors Can't wait!! And you take feedback like an absolute legend. Obvs I'm just one person and all with my personal opinion lol, but real talk the numbers don't lie. Innovation is rewarded in a time where everyone is using AI and copying "what worked" to make money off the residual hype (which is respectable, but ask yourself why do so many 100k+ channels only get 5k views per vid nowadays?) Simple, they aren't offering anything unique and are complacent with what they have. And, the problem with uniqueness is it's so often surrounded by a lack of results while we dial in to what "really works" that we confuse it for not working... But notice, every youtuber in bass fishing has the same stance, same angles, same talking lines, so many get NO ATTENTION... BUT, you look at hood fishing entertainment for instance... Shit bro, and he ain't got half the film quality you do. You feel what I'm saying?

[@TheBoundlessNexus]

Oh shiii I didn't even see on the first watch you're into salt strong too!! heck yea haha. what's your favorite lure from them? I can't seem to get the powerprawn to perform like i do my vudu...

[@Sommertime_Outdoors]

I like the 2.0 paddle tail and the jerk Shad too I usually jig the prawns on deep inlets or bridges not really flats fishing as much! Vudu slays and I also love the little weedless savage gear shrimp for flood tide fishing reds

[@BlatAttack]

It’s illegal to use drones in the refuge

[@TheBoundlessNexus]

I've been wondering about that... Is that just the nasa causeway? is it just the entrance into the preserve? I've seen sooo many youtubers do it without issue so I'm confused. I've tried looking into it and maybe just have the searching capabilities of an ape haha. If you could help let me know that would actually be killer!!

[@Reeldrivenoutdoors]

No its definitely illegal in the lagoon pretty much everywhere. And there are signs all over the refuge anywhere in the merrit island national wildlife refuge.

[@TheBoundlessNexus]

@@Reeldrivenoutdoors how are all the KZbinrs doing it without getting their videos removed or convicted though?

[@Bey0ndNames]

do you recommend ur kayak?

[@Sommertime_Outdoors]

Yes it’s a hobie outback and I think it’s one of the best all around yaks on the market!
