I shouldn't have landed it! | Kayak Fishing with Friends Pt 1

In this episode of SFH, My friends and I go Kayaking Fishing for what ever bites! We start our day by doing a bit of reef clean up, catching Blue Line Snapper then move on to catching some Opelu for bait. We dropped our first bait's 30 minutes after sun up and Hanapaa! My buddy Elliot hooked onto the first fish, 10 Minutes after he lands his my pole takes off. We are on to our first big strike, After a little tug of war I get my fish to the Kayak and accidentally flipped my spool lever into freespool, That's where it all went sour. I ended up with a crazy bird nest (Tangled Lined) in my reel but fought the fish through it. A minute after I landed my fish, my buddy Alistair hooks onto a solid fish! There is nothing better than fishing with friends. :P

Man a life vest that isn't zipped up is pretty much the same as not wearing one. Be safe brother!

[@seagullfishinghawaii8304]

You’re absolutely right. I’ll have to work on that and get out of that bad habit 😖

[@Krew808]

What you use to connect your lead to line? I use rubber bands but always got break when bringing it in.

[@seagullfishinghawaii8304]

I use a diy sliding clip.

[@ScubaChris]

Fat boy! Awesome:)

[@bigdsohc]

wow haha accidental free spool. sometimes the opelu like hide under my kayak when predators super close. I'm like what the heck is all this slack line from then I see the buggah swimming right under and next to me or behind me.

[@seagullfishinghawaii8304]

Bruuuvv!!! I absolutely hate when that happens. I’m always like, I’ll fix you mr.opelu and send him down on a lead 😅😂
