[@cybernick8495]

Thniks for the tips

[@manuelmelchizedek4309]

Nice sheepshead .wow .big fish

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man! Such a fun fight.

[@chrisreumont]

The part were you show the fish and cast to it. We watch it chase and bite was incredible. Great video.

[@YakFishField]

Glad you enjoyed it Chris!

[@txaquatics3065]

Dude, the hook up at 20 minutes was phenomenal.

[@YakFishField]

Too much fun man. Those are the kind of moments I drove 12 hours for.

[@JohnAdamsInc1]

That catch at 20 mins is UNREAL

[@iluvpugstoo]

Am an avid fan of your channel Robert. Awesome content and your video craft is wonderful. Keep 'em coming and thank you !

[@YakFishField]

Thanks for the kind words brother!! Glad you’re digging the content.

[@johnfaulkner6042]

Nice site casting, was great to see the red eat your bait on film.

[@YakFishField]

Yeah man, hard to capture but those are the moments that make this so fun.

[@xtasyboi]

Nice sheephead and drum there

[@YakFishField]

Tons of fun!

[@jeevandewee]

Sight fishing is the best! I love your videos man! Greetings from Holland, Joachim.

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Jee! Would love to get out to Holland to fish one day.

[@jeevandewee]

Robert Field You’re very welcome, to come fishing here! 👍

[@joshtenney8979]

Very cool!!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Josh!

[@danielduplantis6469]

Watching that 26" hit you on the hop was beautiful. Sheep are fun to catch down here in the winter. We'll fish on bottom with shrimp and a weight. Your PAC videos make me fall in love with home all over again. Been fishing PAC since I was like 4!

[@YakFishField]

One of my favorite places in the country to fish man. I’ll be back there this fall.

[@danielduplantis6469]

We usually do really in October. I call it "Red October" because the last few years we've lit up the red fish the last few years. Where do you get your shirts and face masks?

[@danielduplantis6469]

Dude i got my dad sold on the Zman shrimp. He caught bull red yesterday with a Zman. The gold spoons are still working like magic in PAC too.

[@MakzFishin]

yesss, those Z-Man are hard to beat. If i'm not throwing a Buggs then my next choice is a PaddlerZ or the EZShrimp

[@JonnyAljets]

Great vid bro! Nice kayak too :)

[@YakFishField]

Thanks bro! Can’t wait to chase some river giants with ya again. I’ll be in Texas for 2 months this time next year

[@timc.3223]

ive actaully fished here and this is a great spot i strongly suggest going here if you ever get the chance

[@YakFishField]

Yeah man, PAC is so rad! Maybe my favorite place to inshore fish.

[@RobertJones-ql4oj]

19:58 That was awesome

[@YakFishField]

Those are the moments that make sightcasting so fun. Thanks Robert!

[@Unkled_fishing]

That was soooo cool as hell at 20:05!

[@YakFishField]

Those moments are what Fishing the marsh is all about!

[@Unkled_fishing]

Robert Field Absolutely! 💪🏼👍🏼

[@WaynJul]

Those fish must not be use to traffic out there . Usually they would spook. Water is very clear. That sheeps head just came right at you. Huge one. Gene the drum master.

[@YakFishField]

Yep, you’ll see us struggle more in episode 2. But we still get some solid fish

[@theuzzells]

this is a good channel. nice work!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Hank!

[@ryanlang4327]

Love your vids man I'm starting my own fishing channel

[@YakFishField]

Nice! Just have fun with it and it’ll grow!

[@MeredithMusings]

Great video!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks!

[@codylavergne9506]

I caught a 42 pound black drum on 14 pound mono with half a crab in dulac

[@YakFishField]

Nice dude, that’s a beast!

[@dingofishing64]

Wish I knew what reel you were using. Sounds amazing. Guess I'll have to keep buying until I find it. Would be nice to know but oh well

[@hellyeah1928]

YES YES YES !!! The best part of the day is watching another Robert field video, watching what you love to do and watching g a pro put a dent in the ol fish population!

[@YakFishField]

Haha thanks bro, glad you're enjoying the vids!

[@bigpat728]

the fish at 28:00 was money

[@YakFishField]

Yeah dude, beast!

[@hoidantheorangedragon4526]

wow we watched that red take the bait

[@YakFishField]

Yes we did. :)

[@sandrasalinas1988]

Dude that was some awesome footage the sight cast to the red and the sheephead bro beautiful footage I was on my feet when I saw that sheephead hit that lure shrimp I’m from Texas they don’t play that down here the port Isabel tx area man I’m still freaking out on it Ps also using my girls account thanks frank Trevino

[@YakFishField]

Yeah man, can’t beat sightcasting in the marsh, it’s one of my favorite ways to fish. Couldn’t believe the sheepshead ate so close to the boat. I’m from Texas too, but Dallas. Thanks for watching Frank

[@sandrasalinas1988]

Yeah I’ve kept up with ur channel crazy trips bro !!!! Thank you so much for responding

[@jackcraddock575]

subbed

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Jack!

[@BrandonBarton13]

One of my fav place to go kayak fishing! Great job capturing it!!

[@YakFishField]

So much fun dude. I'll be up your way in February... what's up?!

[@scyaker9145]

As always, great fish and video

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Trey!

[@timward5303]

And... Rob finally has a net. Solid work, got my heart racing on that top slot red.

[@YakFishField]

Nope, borrowed that net from Jameson. Haha!

[@ryanwalker4303]

Cool shot of the big red eating your lure

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man! It's such a rush every time.

[@KayakingKennedy]

Dude that spot is THE spot!! Cant beat Mr. Eddie and Mrs. Lisa's hospitality. I'm going back next month abunch of us YakTribe folks and after watching this video that is all I can think about now!!

[@YakFishField]

Couldn't agree more man, they're awesome people and it's an incredible place. I'll be going back at some point for sure. Good luck down there!

[@RicebirdEC]

You ever used a feelfree kayak? Thinking about getting the moken 12.5

[@YakFishField]

I have, they make solid boats. I always recommend demoing any kayak before you buy it. Everyone's different and has different preferences.

[@lexaket]

Wow!!! It was so cool. I like river fishing so much. Thanks for video man.

[@YakFishField]

It was a fun day!

[@williamlaurent375]

Dude your channel is sick! You deserve more subscribers! Thanks for the awesome videos!

[@YakFishField]

I'll just keep doin my thing and if people dig it, the subs will come. Thanks for being one of em!

[@tombob4002]

that drum was insane thank u so much for the video

[@YakFishField]

Haha yeah man, and they get even bigger! Glad you liked it Jacob

[@0526Rob]

Nice job as usual! That sheepshead omg! One of my favorite for eating!

[@YakFishField]

I've never eaten em man, I didn't want to keep such a stud. I'll have to keep a few next time I catch some normal sized ones haha.

[@gpi1955]

blah and I was supposed to be down there that same week...totally awesome video especially how you could actually see the fish clearly before the strike. so cool at the 20:00 mark then just got better and better lol. awesome sheep head too!! I could tell you had a blast in your voice.

[@YakFishField]

Hahah thanks man! That sightcasting segment is what it's all about, that's why I love redfishing down there so much.

[@Jacob-lw8km]

Awesome fish Robert, I love sight fishing marshes in a kayak. It's just an amazing experience. Can't wait for your next video :)

[@YakFishField]

Me too man, so much fun!

[@michaelnicolaysen7391]

Sweet episode, most exciting red fish video I've watched at least. Also glad to see all those jackson kayaks :).

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Michael! Glad you enjoyed it bro

[@7citiesfishing]

Dang man another sick trip! Love some redfish

[@YakFishField]

Me too dude, redfish have a special place in my heart

[@7citiesfishing]

i really like how you comment back to people not many do

[@jacethornton4103]

Dude this is crazy. I grew up about 30 min north in Houma and my dad owned a camp less than a quarter mile up the road from where you were. I was there in 2008 during the shrimp run in July and caught about 200 specs on shad rigs. Glad you guys killed it there. I would live to go there on kayaks.

[@justinb3994]

JT Kayak Fishing my family owns a camp on island road. I've been fishing there all my life. I wish I could share memories of all the fish I've caught but it's just too many😂. And I love to get a report on how the fish are biting. Might have to make a trip soon

[@YakFishField]

Nice JT! It's such a rad area, this was my 3rd or 4th time fishing PAC. Love it there and I'll definitely be back.

[@andrewsmith941]

What kayaks are y'all using they all seem to be super stable

[@YakFishField]

We’re all using different ones. Jackson Kayak and Wilderness Systems are the brands we’re using here. Most fishing kayaks are stable tho

[@Popesmokes1]

Robert you videos are great! I even hate fishing but watching you fish is awesome. Keep it up man, who knows I might just cast a line out sometime soon.

[@YakFishField]

Haha glad you're digging em man!

[@anewleafestatesales7420]

That was so cool

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Danielle, glad you enjoyed it

[@golongle]

One of your best videos to date. I could be bias though haha. I love the flats.

[@YakFishField]

Hahah man it's one of my favorites too. Just a super fun day.

[@slikrik6098]

Thumbs up Mr. Field , Great trip

[@YakFishField]

Thanks bri

[@jaidensullivan6849]

Hey you shouldn’t wear waiters while kayak fishing because if you flip they will fill up with water and you could drown

[@YakFishField]

Not true.

[@DCD-il3nm]

Very cool. I'm there next year man.

[@YakFishField]

You won't regret it bud, it's always on fire down there.

[@MrPerkylad89]

What shades do you wear?

[@YakFishField]

These are Smith Optics but now I wear Waterland Co

[@ryanh9820]

Amazing shot of that red sight casting. Heading down to Grand Isle at the end of the month hope I have the kind of luck you did.

[@YakFishField]

Grand Isle is the land of giants bro. Very close to here but different style of fishing. You probably won't hook as many, but they'll probably be BIG.

[@harry1264]

Dam that's what u call living

[@YakFishField]

It was a fun trip

[@garymyers472]

Your videography is definitely improving

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Gary

[@GrimReaper68440]

What an awesome 1st day. I could definitely get used to those fish pulling me around the marsh. Unlike San Clemente island sealions in California. Lol, just kidding you. All joking aside. I am really impressed with the sight casting those 2 fish, the red and the sheephead. I actually saw them suck up that plastic shrimp. That was awesome to see. Take care, hunker down.

[@YakFishField]

Those moments are what the marsh is all about man, SO much fun. Thanks man, glad you liked it!

[@julianschenkel8963]

Never heard of redfish. They look beautiful. Kinda prehistoric.

[@YakFishField]

They’re technically called red drum. They’re SO much fun and delicious to eat as well!

[@julianschenkel8963]

Robert Field Yeah. It looked like they put up a good fight.

[@iluvpugstoo]

If you like these redfish please take a look at Marks Fishing channel.

[@julianschenkel8963]

iluvpugstoo Sure dude!

[@retnav92]

Another 👍 episode. :)

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Greg!

[@retseibt7002]

What size is your penn spinfisher V reel

[@YakFishField]

3500 if I remember right

[@retseibt7002]

Thank you

[@cybernick8495]

I just started sheephead fishing last summer cought smalls to

[@richwood8538]

I know a lot of people are going to beat me up for this, but I make jerky from drum! Robert you've done it again. Looks like you have fun wherever you go. I read in the comments you are thinking of fishing the great lakes area in the fall of 2018. You gotta bust a giant smallmouth in lake St. Claire. 🙆👍

[@YakFishField]

I actually think black drum are great eating... when they’re small. The big ones get a little weird. I’ve actually been on Lake St. Claire once but didn’t really get to fish. I’ll be changing that this fall!

[@richwood8538]

+Robert Field I'm sure you will make it happen. Tight lines!

[@philipstempien8256]

nice

[@YakFishField]

Thanks bud

[@newplayer2776]

Nice catch!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks!

[@iana3398]

Just got back from catching 40 lb black drum

[@YakFishField]

Nice dude, those were beasts!

[@iana3398]

Robert Field where did you live in SW Florida? I currently live in punta Gorda (small town on Charlotte harbor)

[@CMonsta]

Does it get better than that? Wow! What an awesome day! Another great video. Would you take a Coosa FD out BTB?

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man! I haven't been in the Coosa FD. Jameson has, and he took it offshore on a mothership trip for big tuna. He said it performed well.

[@lancelewandowski2667]

Perfect cast at 20:05 man. That’s how you do it.

[@YakFishField]

Yeah after spooking one right before by landing it too close, I tried to hide the landing in the grass. Worked out!

[@Unkled_fishing]

I agree that was probably worth the whole trip!!

[@kndaily4812]

I like fishing

[@YakFishField]

Me too bro, me too.

[@SuperBlind7]

Very Cool! 👍🏻

[@YakFishField]

Glad you liked it!

[@beardisauce1870]

just an FYI for trout fishers... did Mystery Box for trout. complete joke. sent me some 1in plastics with hooks for 3-4in plastics... Huh? Not one piece of equipment looks usable for trout. Crappie and Bass maybe... definitely not trout tho. Ive taken a ton from your videos but the Mystery Box was a fail. As always tho Robert... another great video... thanks.

[@YakFishField]

Sorry to hear they didn't work for ya. I've only used the inshore and freshwater boxes, both have been great pairings every time so far. Thanks for watching bud!

[@YakinwithJack]

Sight fishing Reds is my favorite thing to do. I recently caught some bull reds on a Zebco Dock demon it’s was intense. It’s on my channel if you want to check it out

[@YakFishField]

Me too man, meeeee too. I'll check it out!

[@mauricekafoe9135]

Is there a difference between male and female reedfish you can easely identyfi

[@Felground]

How did you rig that z man shrimp?

[@YakFishField]

On a shakey head, basically a bass fishing setup!

[@jackleahy8624]

collab w blacktiph

[@YakFishField]

We just might!

[@jackleahy8624]

please

[@jackleahy8624]

u guys are my favorite fishing you tubers

[@DeadBeatDex]

Their ain't nothing like a bull red

[@YakFishField]

True that!

[@fishing-fanatic3427]

Awesome video as always! The z-man shrimp are awesome they last forever and catch alittle bit of everthing! One other question u running fluor or mono leader?

[@YakFishField]

Fluoro, 15# on some setups and 20# on others.

[@FISHANE84]

Nice job bro!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks buddy.

[@davidfleming2043]

What net are you using?

[@YakFishField]

Mine is a piece of junk cheapo. Jameson’s is something like RS Nets, I forget

[@lukiepoockie]

Great video! I can only wish to be were you are at today! I only have 200 subscribers right now and will be doing a giveaway at 500! Love the video keep it up!

[@lukiepoockie]

And I also admire how in every single comment no matter how many, you always respond!

[@YakFishField]

Just keep at it bro. I was at 200 subs once. I don’t worry too much about that, I just pump out content that I love as often as I can. Do it for the love of it and the subs will come! You’ve got one more sub in me bro. 👊🏼

[@YakFishField]

Man if you guys can invest the time to watch and comment, the least i can do is reply. It means a lot bro

[@tommydavis2696]

Are y’all fishing close to the dock or did you take a mothership out?

[@YakFishField]

Did you watch the video? Hard to miss that part...

[@minkenator]

What kind of net is that that you use in this video?

[@YakFishField]

I think it's a company called Rising. Jameson let me borrow it, pretty nice!

[@jugowater9546]

does fishing line color matter?

[@graatata8279]

Clear line like mono or fluoro can make a big difference in clear water.

[@YakFishField]

I use a fluoro leader so the line near the lure isn't colored. Mainline color doesn't matter in my opinion.

[@tombob4002]

1 of my favort parts of yr videos is a alwaye see u releasing fish n i love to see that i do the same if i want to eat fish i go out n 1 thats already dead instead of killing 1 that could live 2 give some 1 else another fight or inportanly breed more fish :) love yr video u make we want to keep folowing my dream

[@YakFishField]

Yeah man, I keep fish sometimes but usually wait until I gut-hook one or something like that. Always work towards your dreams and goals. I'm making a little more progress towards mine every day, and enjoying the journey instead of worrying about the destination.

[@tombob4002]

Robert Field great words of wisdom good luck my freind

[@jrs2023]

Nice

[@YakFishField]

Glad you enjoyed it Jesse

[@danielstamand3]

so many sponsors lmao

[@YakFishField]

Yep, they help me do this for a living. They all make killer products, you should check 'em out. Without them, this video wouldn't exist for you to watch. Hope you enjoyed it Danny!

[@robertholton4807]

Grats on pb sheephead. Is this trip catch and release?

[@YakFishField]

Some people kept fish, I released all mine. In hindsight I regret it haha, but I didn't have a stringer or cooler with me.

[@joshuahorstmann297]

I always have more luck at Venus, then Pointe Aux Chenes this time of year but you destroyed them

[@YakFishField]

I've never been to Venus. This was my 3rd or 4th time at PAC and I've done well every time. Love it there

[@joshuahorstmann297]

Must be the time of the year

[@SFLFishing]

what kayak did you use Robert?

[@YakFishField]

That was the Jackson Kayak Coosa HD

[@RicebirdEC]

What Jackson kayaks are y’all using? Trying to find a new one that doesn’t break the bank but stable enough to stand in for sight casting

[@YakFishField]

Gene was in the Mayfly, I was in a Coosa HD, Jameson was in the Coosa FD and Brooks was in a Mayfly.

[@mattblackfish3706]

Nice job! I fish over there a lot and thought about a trip with Eddie- but most every time I go out I haven't found a need to do it... yet! Check out my page if ya get a chance.

[@huntermartocchio4329]

Why gaff a fish u won’t keep?

[@YakFishField]

Did you actually watch this video? Zero gaffs were used...

[@newplayer2776]

2nd comment yay

[@aminadabo9337]

Very good video friend!!!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Ami

[@aminadabo9337]

You`re welcome

[@FishPornTV]

20:00 = coolest part yet

[@YakFishField]

Haha too much fun man

[@mattdurand9508]

Nice video. I really enjoy kayak fishing!! I’m in the market for a new fishing kayak. I currently own a Ocean Kayak but can’t stand up or use pedal drive for covering distance. What do you recommend?

[@YakFishField]

Well if you want a pedal drive your main options are Hobie, Wilderness Systems Radar, Old Town Predator PDL or Jackson Kayak Coosa FD. I’d go to your local dealer and demo a few before you buy one.

[@kevinfayard7790]

Fantastic video Robert. I live on the Mississippi coast and have fished Louisiana as well, and I have never seen a black drum as large as the one that your friend caught. That was astounding.

[@YakFishField]

Glad you enjoyed it Kevin! I’ve seen a few bigger, but that was a stud. They get GIANT though, like 50+ lbs

[@clfishing2788]

Man all those gopros would get in your way of casting

[@YakFishField]

Yeah, they do.

[@lojofishing]

dude those things fight so damn HARD!!!

[@YakFishField]

Redfish are tanks man, so fun

[@javioncohen5430]

i know im randomly asking but does someone know a trick to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost the account password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me!

[@lianhank9534]

@Javion Cohen instablaster ;)

[@laurelblackburn372]

do you ever see snook back in there

[@YakFishField]

Nope. Never heard of a snook being caught in Louisiana. Think it’s too far north

[@averee94]

Awesome video 🤙🏽

[@YakFishField]

Thanks bro

[@cybernick8495]

What color luers do you recommend for red drum fishing

[@YakFishField]

In dirty water I like dark colors and chartreuse. In clear water I like white, pink, a little red depending on the area. A gold spoon is always a solid choice too.

[@jacobmusselman4683]

i cought 13 trout on the same zman

[@YakFishField]

Nice! They're super durable

[@tyvassalli3821]

There some bloody big fish there!

[@YakFishField]

Ohhhh yeah. They get bigger, too.
