Leopard Sharks & Calico Bass |

[@scottehrlich6653]

Thank you Robert. I actually shop your sponsors now so it's getting them real results. You are a natural for this career brother. Truly appreciate the hard work so I can live it from my couch. Over.

[@YakFishField]

+Scott Ehrlich thanks for the kind words Scott, I appreciate it! I turn down about a dozen sponsorship offers for every one I accept. If I don't already use and love the product or WHOLE HEARTEDLY believe it's the best in its genre, I pass, even when money is offered (I'd be living much more comfortably if I just blindly accepted them all). I say all that to say that if I work with a company, it's because I stand behind the product. If you're ever unhappy with one of those purchases, you let me know and I'll help take care of ya.

[@scyaker9145]

What a great day of fishing that was , beautiful water and the three new fish. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. Tight lines Trey

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Trey! Next VLOG episode is Thursday and the 2nd fishing episode will air on Tuesday! Hope you dig it

[@WeeWoo93]

that shark is absolutely beautiful wow

[@YakFishField]

prettiest shark in the sea!

[@scotthall4166]

I'm from so cal, went out first time on kayak in ocean this past weekend. Out of Newport.I freaked out a little about great whites. I know it's rare but there have been a lot of sightings here. I'm working on getting over it. Ur videos are awesome. I want to do La Jolla soon. It's my favorite beach. Thanks for the videos!

[@Bryzzo-lj6jp]

Love the VLOG brother. I can't take the time to do something like this but I'm happy to live through you. Keep up the great work, have fun, no stay safe.

[@NiceGuy2u51]

The Leopard shark was beautiful. Nice catch. Looking forward to the next video! 🎣👍🏻👍🏻

[@YakFishField]

Prettiest shark in the sea! Thanks man

[@peterhay_]

Unreal idea. Such high quality videography with all those different GoPro angles! Well done!

[@YakFishField]

+Peter Hay thanks Peter! It's a feat to juggle them all and not lose the fish. Haha

[@G2Outdoors]

LOVE it! Your Pecos River and Adirondack canoe series are what inspired me to start filming my stuff. Big fan! Thanks for all the hard work to provide us with amazing FREE content! Ready for the next FIELD TRIP!

[@YakFishField]

+G2 Outdoors glad you're enjoying the content bro! I'll subscribe to your channel

[@timward5303]

Quality video work and quality fishing. Your ease in front of the camera makes these videos easy to watch. Definitely puts you on par with some of the biggest names in the kayak fishing sport. Looking forward to more entries in this series.

[@YakFishField]

+Tim Ward thanks for the kind words Tim, I appreciate that.

[@timward5303]

Been watching your vids and following your career since I heard on a forum about some guy tipping his kayak while shark fishing in TX. Best of luck to you brother. Keep up the solid work.

[@rcagle123]

Awesome! The leopard shark looks like a copperhead with the color and patterns it has.

[@YakFishField]

Yeah it does! Such a pretty fish man.

[@larryb3805]

What a great start to this series. Can't wait for nbr 2

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Larry, glad you enjoyed it! Episode 2 is nuuuttttssssss, those yellowtail are INSANE.

[@SeaDragonAngler]

another great video robert..... glad you got to enjoy the leftcoast

[@YakFishField]

+Sea Dragon Angler thanks man! It's just getting started, sooooo many more species get knocked off in the next 12 episodes

[@redbaron6560]

Best fishing channel on KZbin! Great Job. Keep em coming. Grew up in Oceanside CA. Miss it. Want to get out that way again some day.

[@YakFishField]

Thanks for the kind words! I just dropped a VLOG episode from the Hobie factory, that's in Oceanside. Cool town. My mom lives in Irvine, not too far. She's in VLOG #5 lol

[@michaelgavin1909]

wow man, really nice leopard shark can't wait to see more videos on the kayak!

[@YakFishField]

Those fish are beautiful man! Fishing episodes will air every Tuesday and VLOGs every Thursday for the next 13 weeks. Stay tuned...

[@samzab1163]

This series is great and very exciting. I wake up looking foward to today's episode. Keep it up.

[@YakFishField]

Glad you're enjoying it Samzab!

[@WaynJul]

Those bass looked like fun to catch. That leopard shark has nice colors. It almost had you singing soprano.

[@YakFishField]

+Wayn Jul hahah yes it did

[@drewanderson694]

Pretty cool seeing a big KZbinr catching the same fish my friends and I catch

[@YakFishField]

+Drew Anderson you live near an awesome fishery Drew! I'll be back out on the west coast again, you and your friends will have to join me for an episode

[@lookin2kayakandbike664]

Good one Robert. Looking forward to seeing the whole series. I really appreciate how you try to respond to every comment. That's true dedication to not only the sport but your fans/viewers. I've enjoyed your others videos too and the excellent quality. Keep up the good work my man! Surprised you don't have more subscribers, but it'll come.

[@YakFishField]

+Lookin 2kayak thanks dude! Glad you liked it. I don't worry too much about the numbers. I'm having fun and scraping out a living, can't ask for much more than that. Thanks for subbing bro!

[@VelocityFishing]

Never seen those kind of bass! Very cool Rob. Great video as always

[@YakFishField]

+Velocity Fishing yep, they're saltwater bass. Calico bass is a nickname, their real name is kelp bass. Cool species and SUCH strong fighters

[@werftv4580]

a big kelp bass is no joke for sure.. nice vid

[@fishingman8766]

what is Calico Bass?

[@werftv4580]

Paralabrax clathratus calico or kelp bass.. imagine an LMB times three or four.. with teeth and a propensity to break you off on kelp, rocks, or any other object they can find..

[@brandongarfinkel1924]

Don't call your Self fishing If You Don't Know What A Calico Bass Is

[@dinhomadeira7497]

I'm always following your videos here from Brazil ... a big hug!

[@YakFishField]

+dinho madeira thanks Dinho!

[@bradelsner8324]

Congrats on your first day! Cool species of fish to look at. Thanks for the good vid. Fish on!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Brad! The fishing only gets better from here.

[@bradelsner8324]

Awesome! Man I'm def jealous. Glad I get to live vicariously through you brother!

[@bradelsner8324]

Oh and if you ever find yourself in North West Arkansas you always got a place to stay. Smallie and White River tail water trout fishing is spectacular😎

[@larrymcmakin1153]

The coloration of that leopard shark reminds me of a copperhead snake here in Texas. Cool looking shark.

[@YakFishField]

+Larry McMakin I thought the same thing! I'm from Texas and have had a few encounters. It's the prettiest shark I've caught for sure

[@RobertJonesSilum]

My favorite kayaker comes to my local spot and I don't even know. FML. Awesome vid, can't wait for the series. Tight lines!

[@YakFishField]

+Robert Jones haha I'll be back on the west coast for sure. You'll have to join me on an episode

[@BeyondTheBoundsOutdoors]

Best kayak angler on KZbin. Period. Thank god I'm getting bass boat can't compete!!

[@YakFishField]

+BeyondTheBounds thanks man! Glad you're digging the vids. Bass boats are fun too! Congrats in advance

[@Jacob-lw8km]

Leapord Sharks from a kayak! I have to try this! Robert your videos are the best keep up the awesome work man!!! I really mean it! Can't wait for the rest of the series!

[@YakFishField]

They're such a blast man! As you'll see in episode 2, they're ALL OVER THE SURF in SoCal. Easy to reach by kayak or even from the beach. Thanks man, glad you dug it!

[@Jacob-lw8km]

Sounds Awesome man, can't wait!

[@gabepettinicchio7454]

The sealions have now been fully protected since the 70s. They have their place, but there are now far too many. As a result, they have hurt unshore fishing along CAs coast. They eat 30-35lbs of fish every day. That equals several 'daily' Calico Bass limits, and they are much more successful. They have even been seen eating 7' Thresher Sharks. They also provide food & attraction for the increase of Great Whites. They should be brought under control. The balance has been affected!

[@yunghaider]

Just a quick tip when targeting kelp bed, you want to place your casts on the head of the kelp bed that's where the nicer fish will be

[@YakFishField]

Good to know, thanks Alex!

[@cobbs]

My fishery! Hell yeah! You haven't put out as much fishing content as you used to, but it looks like that's about to change. Seriously, when you put out actual fishing content, it's some of the best. You have a way with editing and narration that makes the story compelling. And yeah, those calicos are strong fighters and hella fun to catch, much more so than lmb's. They're the reason I first switched from freshwater to salt, lol. Looking forward to the rest of the series, especially the La Jolla episode!

[@YakFishField]

+cobbs you live near an awesome fishery man! Glad you like the fishing episodes, there'll be a new one every Tuesday from now on. And I put out a pretty cool Panama series a couple weeks ago if you wanna check that out in the meantime

[@TridentDriver]

I will watch and like every video you make as long as you make them. Fantastic work! Your vids always motivate me to fish hard.

[@YakFishField]

Thanks for saying that, I appreciate it! Glad you're enjoying em.

[@nisse4629]

That is one of the coolest sharks i have ever seen. That and the zebra shark :D

[@YakFishField]

+BlackSapphiree haha yeah dude, prettiest shark in the sea!

[@robertomoralesm71]

nice job man look forward to see the new ones!!!

[@YakFishField]

+Roberto Morales thanks Roberto! Hope you've been well buddy

[@jaredtomanek2384]

Great catches. One thing that I would be interested in is depths of water. But man it looks like fun.

[@YakFishField]

So we were catching those calicos in about 40 feet, maybe 1/4 mile out of the harbor. The leopard shark came in about 12 feet right off the beach. They hang out in and right past the surf. In most of the episodes I talk about how deep we're fishing. And in episode 3 you'll get a glimpse of just how many leopard sharks hang out right off the beach!

[@RodneyMarquezFishingChannel]

Love it !! Great job !

[@YakFishField]

+Rodney Marquez thanks Rodney!

[@brandonkirk103]

Thats awsome! Amazing video as always Robert!!!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks for being a loyal watcher bro!

[@aaronl2316]

Sand bass can get HUGE as well. Great video man you should definitely try going for some spotted bay bass next if you haven't already

[@YakFishField]

+Khaki_ 323 didn't get a chance to catch those, but I'll be back in SoCal for sure.

[@KayakFreaks]

This makes me wanna get my truck now and load everything up and just hit the water and travel now!

[@YakFishField]

+Kayak Freaks haha soon enough bro!

[@AADVENT]

Another awesome episode. Loved what you are doing.

[@YakFishField]

+Project IB thanks man!

[@seawolffishingadventures1284]

Awesome vid Rob! Diggin' that you're fishing my backyard!

[@YakFishField]

+Sea Wolf Kayak Adventures you have an awesome backyard homie!

[@jasonpoultry0]

Hell yeah man! Top notch as always! I need to check yellowtail and wsb off my list. Can't wait for the morro bay episode, that's right around the way from me!

[@YakFishField]

Oh man, Morro Bay is an AWESOME fishery. I also did a Leffingwell episode right after, not too far. We WORE 'EM OUT both days. Those are episodes 4 and 5, stay tuned...

[@YakinwithJack]

You should have a lot more that 56k subscribers buddy. Your videos are always top notch 👍🏾

[@YakFishField]

I appreciate that Jack. I don't worry about numbers too much. I'll just keep doing my thing and if people dig it, the subs will come. Thanks for being one of 'em bro!

[@YakinwithJack]

Robert Field this is true. You should come to pensacola in the fall and catch these bull reds on top water under the bridge lights at night its epic

[@lelandcarr7076]

He needs his own TV show like if you agree

[@YakFishField]

+Pixel Peep thanks man 👊🏼

[@lelandcarr7076]

Robert Field welcome ur just so amazing and yeah

[@lelandcarr7076]

Robert Field oh yeah and what's the biggest fish you have caught

[@YakFishField]

+Pixel Peep the biggest fish I've caught is coming up in episode 9!

[@hondajukie]

@@YakFishField I actively fish for calicos n sand bass hope you get your flatty next time your down here send me a pm got some 20s,30s pounders I've harvested over the years ,question though I know peddle drivers are limited on in haul rod storage what do you do for nasty surf launches not to lose your rods

[@DwayneMcguire]

Honestly you ocean kayak fishermen second to none man 👍 🎣 lol

[@YakFishField]

+Dwayne haha thanks Dwayne

[@DwayneMcguire]

Very welcome 👍🎣

[@coopw101]

Bro that place looks sweet. Awesome vid thanks. Can't wait for the next vlog. 🖒✌🖖

[@YakFishField]

+Coop W it's super sweet bro. Next VLOG airs Thursday

[@anthonyyang7286]

That's pretty cool to see you catching calicos and yellowtail You should of fished San Diego bay or mission bay for spotted bay bass with swimbaits

[@YakFishField]

I'll definitely be back to the west coast man, maybe you can join me and co-star in an episode in the bay!

[@anthonyyang7286]

Robert Field for sure man

[@cade2561]

I've been there a bunch. I live kinda close to there. There's also spotted bay bass there. I've caught all 3(calicoes, spots, and those barred sand bass)

[@YakFishField]

+Cade Whitmore nice! I love it there

[@freddiesummers9159]

Keep doing the field trips I love em

[@YakFishField]

+Freddie Summers I will! I’m making a big announcement in a few weeks about the next evolution of the show. But weekly episodes will keep coming out! Checkout the other 11 videos in this series if you haven’t seen em, it gets better from here!

[@bagooats5373]

Ur such a great youtuber and I love this new series with the new species numbers. Keep it up!

[@YakFishField]

+Josh Snipez thanks Josh! Tons more species are about to get knocked off. Stay tuned...

[@mathewdavis-adventuresandd6643]

Great video. I've haven't heard of a calico bass. Three new species is a good start.

[@YakFishField]

+Mathew Davis - Adventures and DIY they're also called kelp bass. Such a fun fight

[@KayakCatfish]

Awesome video!!! Could you give a link to the other camera mount that you had attached to railblaza 600 on the front of your kayak? Thanks for the great videos! Looking forward to the next one.

[@YakFishField]

The short one? That's the alligator clamp mount from GoPro. Very versatile mount. There are lots of Chinese knock offs on Amazon but I wouldn't go that route, their clamps are unreliable and you're putting your GoPro at risk. The thing is $40 from GoPro which isn't cheap, but worth the peace of mind.

[@DwayneMcguire]

Very nice catches always great for new speices for sure ,,,would of been sweating bullets after the great white being mentioned lol haha 😄👍 🎣

[@YakFishField]

+Dwayne haha as I heard north they get more common. I saw one in Dana Point with my mom on a kayak. About a 9 footer. He just cruised on by though. Still a humbling experience to say the least

[@philcarr7015]

Another cool video! Loved the shark!

[@YakFishField]

+Phil Carr thanks Phil, they're a cool species!

[@luvmuscle37]

You could even have it to where you have them on your boat with a manual pump and pump them up put them on the retractable arms and extend them out for 5 feet and give you way more buoyancy when you’re in the open waters I think that would be a awesome feature on a kayak

[@andreitimchenko8748]

Robert, you make really good, entertaining and quality kayak fishing/trip series! I'm looking forward to see more! And one request to you: you are exposed to more different environment and test more gear than many of us. Could you do a full gear review which you had during this trip, to tell what works and what not so much (if it doesn't violate your sponsorship agreement)? You do some, and advertise more, and it will be helpful to know your fair opinion and recommendations. Thanks!

[@YakFishField]

+Andrei Timchenko yeah man I can definitely do that! I'll do an apparel walkthrough and then kayak gear. Good idea man!

[@dakotaorme7939]

Hey Robert! Love the videos! Keep up the great work man! Have you ever considered heading up to Alaska to do some Salmon/Halibut/etc Fishing? That seems like a ton of fun!

[@YakFishField]

+Dakota Orme thanks Dakota! I've definitely considered it, just takes funding. I'll get there eventually

[@charliegarcia7437]

Nice color on that Leopard Shark!

[@YakFishField]

+Charlie Garcia prettiest shark in the sea man

[@patrickconnors8403]

I cracked up, when the banner came up to report it was three, because I was thinking it (the audience knew it was three). What a pretty shark; that will make you forget the number.

[@YakFishField]

+Patrick Connors yeah man, I was so stoked I wasn't thinking straight haha.

[@patrickconnors8403]

I'd be stoked, lol.

[@lancelewandowski2667]

Awesome experience man!

[@YakFishField]

It definitely was, Lance!

[@thebrosquad6796]

1st video I have ever watched on ur channel and it was good so I liked and subscribed bro

[@YakFishField]

+the bro squad thanks dude I appreciate that!

[@turnerkay3334]

Awesome video! Just found your channel browsing KZbin fishing.... I live down in San Diego and work on a sport fishing boat. Yellows and calico are just great fun.

[@YakFishField]

+Turner Kay thanks Turner! Glad you dug episode 1. The 2nd episode where I chase yellowtail down in La Jolla is up if you wanna check it out. Your neck of the woods!

[@turnerkay3334]

Robert Field just finished ep 2! Awesome video again. Do you only do kayak fishing? I was gonna ask why you didn't go out to Catalina or Coronado islands but then I realized those might be a bit much of pedal in the kayak. Tight lines

[@YakFishField]

+Turner Kay yeah I primarily fish out of a kayak. But I did a mothership trip to San Clemente Island with 21 other kayak anglers. Those episodes will come after this west coast tour series.

[@turnerkay3334]

Robert Field awesome! It's always cool to find an angler that replies to comments much less this fast. There is a group of kayak fisherman that make a yearly trip to San Cedros island. If you have time I believe the channel "warbaits" just uploaded the first part.

[@YakFishField]

+Turner Kay yep I'm familiar with Cedros, I'll be going there with the same company I went to San Clemente with. www.fishvillage.com

[@M4Z1N]

If I was told "There are sharks in that direction" I think I would run screaming in another direction.

[@YakFishField]

Hahaha man, they're just fish like any other. I kayak around sharks all the time and have never felt threatened or in danger. They may come in close to check ya out, but once they realize you're not food, they keep moving. Really gentle giants most of the time... until you hook one.

[@ianmcgann2186]

Haven't watched it yet. I'm exited!

[@YakFishField]

Hope you like it, Ian!

[@prestonjimenez6543]

Awesome videos and series! Im def. Following... good to see a some good vids on water I kayak fish in socal

[@YakFishField]

+preston jimenez nice dude, it's an awesome fishery! The next 2 episodes in La Jolla are two of my favorites from this trip

[@prestonjimenez6543]

Looking forward to them man.. ill be in La Jolla next weekend!

[@Jeffman529]

Your videos are so well edited I feel like I'm not even watching a KZbin video but a movie instead. When was this? I can't imagine you edited this in between now and the time the last vlog came out

[@YakFishField]

Thanks dude I appreciate that! I'm self-taught so there's still plenty of room for improvement. This was a little while ago, I definitely couldn't have edited this along the way. My schedule was so tight there were many nights of driving until 2:00am and going fishing at 5:00am. Look for an announcement at the end of the season about a huge change to my life that will involve more "real-time" weekly episodes. Thanks again bro!

[@kimlock9298]

Rob if you want to do another shark fishing video use cigar minnows as bait it work really good

[@YakFishField]

+Kim Lock good to know, thanks Kim!

[@dinhomadeira7497]

Nice my friend!

[@kylarshay1267]

So when your fishing for bigger fish. Is your reel spooled with all mono or braid. And if you use braid what knot do you use to tie your liter to your main line?

[@Fishing-nk8vk]

How you don't have over 100k subs baffles me! Your video are insane good!

[@YakFishField]

I'm not too worried about it man. I took some time off of focusing on my channel, but I'm back now. Weekly episodes from here on out. I'll just keep doing my thing and if people enjoy it, the subs will come. Thanks for being one of 'em bro.

[@trippiebeats5045]

Great video love it great catches

[@luvmuscle37]

You probably could make it out of some kind of light aluminum rods and actually have a pump that hooks up to a small battery or manually pump up the tubes that hook onto the aluminum rods on each side that go out for 5 foot just to give you stability when you’re on open waters I’m sure that could be integrated into the kayak really easy

[@sstig13]

Lol at the viral video comment you made... Almost had you a George Saber moment. Awesome video!

[@YakFishField]

+Brandon Kyle Mckibben hahaha he's exactly who I was thinking of.

[@johanyak-n-surf8268]

Another amazing video! Be careful, those great whites don't play around.

[@YakFishField]

+Johan Yak-N-Surf no joke, and as I head further north I'm going deeper into their territory

[@joeyguillen5847]

Ever caught some bowfin Robert? I'm here in Iowa so it's fresh water! Good video man look your style and commentary! Fish on!!!!

[@YakFishField]

+Joey Guillen I've never caught a bowfin bud. Lots of em in Texas where I'm from but just rare bass bycatch. They look fun!

[@gregoryrappaport9180]

Looks like that Leopard Shark swallowed the sardine and hook. Did you get the hook out? Can you leave hooks in since it’s salt-water and the hook just deteriorates allowing the fish to live?

[@grunter1389]

Liking your black n red outfit that the Leopard was caught on . ( what model? ) Maybe you could run us through your preferred rods n reels and how you use them .

[@YakFishField]

+Grunter good idea man I'll add that to the list! The red rod is a custom by Mark Crouse and the reel is a Seigler Fishing SG

[@jellybellyfloper]

Is it difficult to combine footage from 3 different gopros? You put out great videos, and top quality too!

[@YakFishField]

+HINTZ not once you get the hang of it. I layer them all on top of each other in the editing program and chop them up that way. Thanks!

[@jimmyceltic4120]

Another cool video what rod and reel was the red one? Love the colors and markings on both fish

[@YakFishField]

The west coast grows some pretty fish! The reel is a Seigler Fishing SG, love it. The rod is a custom from Mark Crouse.

[@nickserrano8428]

So were you looking with your fish finder or were you just throwing a lure ? Cause I know people only use fish finders for depth and temperature

[@YakFishField]

+Nick Serrano I was just looking for kelp and fishing those and the boiler rocks that stick up out of the water. Let it sink to the bottom and varied my retrieve. Once I got a few bites, I replicated those retrieves and conditions.

[@pollyp4730]

Awesome video as always. Congrats on the new species. I picked up my 1st fishing kayak 2 weeks ago, you were one of the inspirations for it. Any quick tips for beginners? When are you coming to Australia to fish? Haha

[@YakFishField]

+Polly P my best tip is to find some people to go out with, that's the fastest way to learn. I'm sure there's a kayak fishing forum and some Facebook groups for Australia. In my experience most in our sport are happy to have meet ups or invite others to tag along. And I'm hoping to get out to both Aus and NZ next year! Where should I go in Aus?

[@pollyp4730]

Robert Field thanks for the reply mate. Northern Queensland has giant grouper and big fish on the great barrier reef. Im im Brisbane, great fishing here. Pretty much anywhere is great fishing im Australia. Thanks for the advice, i will look into some forums. Keep up the great videos

[@ammcknockiter]

Would love to see how you edit and film behind the scenes updated videos

[@YakFishField]

+North East fishing not 100% sure what you're looking for. A video on how I edit? Or what?

[@ammcknockiter]

Robert Field a behind the scenes how Robert does his videos

[@fishing-fanatic3427]

Hey Robert u need a break from all that fishing I will gladly fill in for u! Lol. Another great video!!!!!

[@YakFishField]

Hahaha I'm just getting started man!

[@damehinojosa334]

I watch all your vids great job, bro enjoy them all. Can you recommend a spot for me to get started this fishing season. Dana point or la Jolla for first trip? How many miles do I go out?

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man! La Jolla is incredible. Have to go out a certain distance to be legal, I don’t know how far but I’m sure Google knows

[@carlosmolina1949]

Awesome video dude !! Te admiro bro ..

[@YakFishField]

+CARLOS MOLINA Gracias por verlo mi video amigo! Mucho gusto

[@therealjohnsquad]

As an angler here on the Pacific coast (SoCal) I really enjoyed your west coast field trip. Any plans on an East coast field trip?

[@YakFishField]

+Kevin Johnson yes sir, look for an announcement closer to the end of the year

[@therealjohnsquad]

Awesome! Can't wait bro!

[@luvmuscle37]

You could have Flatow bowl buoys to put on the retractable arms on the side of the kayak where you could manually pump them up and then put your arms out on each side and give you a lot more buoyancy when you’re an open roof or water

[@luvmuscle37]

Inflatable using talk and text

[@faddyvlogs940]

great fish brother

[@YakFishField]

+Faddy Vlogs thanks dude

[@deorasta]

nice channel bro, love the videos.. iam starting to build a good kit.. what kind of rod and reel do you recomend for kayak and rock fishing? cheer from Barcelona!

[@airbornefishing4871]

The red rod why are the guides to the side or it just me great video looking forward to seeing what next

[@YakFishField]

The guides wrap all the way around it. It's called acid wrap or spiral wrap. I'll never go back to regular guides on conventional rods. Here's a decent article explaining the benefits. I don't know this company or their rods, so this is not an endorsement of them, but the article explains the concept decently: www.customanglerods.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=58

[@scott2686]

You didn't fish the bait barge?? If you're on a species hunt you should try it, I catch everything there.

[@YakFishField]

+Scott good to know dude! Makes sense that there'd be fish around it

[@PinaMcVfamily]

What kind of rod is the pink rod with the eyelets on different sides of the pole? Can you give the specs of the rod also? Thanks for the great channel!! Tight lines!

[@YakFishField]

+PinaMcVfamily that's a custom rod built by a guy named Mark Crouse. I'm really not sure of the specs. The eyes wrapping around is called acid wrap or spiral wrap.

[@PinaMcVfamily]

Cool Thanks!! I'll do some research on it. Looks like it is a lot easier on the rod and you when bringing the fish in, especially how close to the water you are sitting.

[@freddiebenson-_-926]

Just found out about your videos not disappointed i subbed

[@YakFishField]

+LambChops 07 thanks man that means a lot!

[@freddiebenson-_-926]

Robert Field No problem👍

[@luvmuscle37]

Robert just a thought why not have retractable floating buoys of some sort that could swing out on each side when in open water to give more stability on each side I’m sure that could be engineered easily for rougher water or an adapter with arm on each side that would be cool if only 4-5 feet for stability I’m sure someone has thought of that or maybe already available if not draw it up and try integrate just a thought as I watch y’all fish hopefully I said it right

[@Fisherman168]

super cool

[@YakFishField]

+Fisherman thanks man

[@Takuplumbing]

Hey boss, how does the lightning compair to the PA12?

[@5050fishing]

Nice episode bro!

[@YakFishField]

+Joseph Harrick thanks homie

[@willwailes9298]

What lb test line did you use for the leader on the leopard?
