Man, thank you ever so much for getting me so pumped up for the future of 2024. I’ve got to start looking around Boston and Cape Cod. Of course I do not have to pedal. I have an electric motor that will do the job. I still haven’t checked off on my bucket list of coastal fishing for summer, fluke,tautog, though I have five fished for striped bass up at Hampton New Hampshire. Thank you very much. Looks like I’ll have to buy on the water magazine.

[@markstafford4015]

Very informative!

[@tomfoley5574]

Now I see where the March Kayak edition cover photo came from! Great shot

[@tomfoley5574]

I’m a new kayaker. Just bought an OT Sportsman and fish the Falmouth area. This is so helpful to me. Great stuff Kev and team😄

[@bduals207]

I have done some pretty sweet mods on my OT! So fun!

[@brandondulle]

I use a OLDTOWN 132 to pull lobster traps. They are an amazing kayak! You’ll love it!

[@bigfishlarrywentworth9588]

Great episode Kevin!

[@kevinblinkoff8466]

Thanks Larry!

[@Sommertime_Outdoors]

would love to do a summer up in cape cod. I'm an avid kayak fisherman and love filming! would love to find a summer job up there.

> Really enjoyed this. Never thought of a fly rod for salt water fishing. I was puckered up thinking that rod is gonna break and then you said it would. Great action, Thank you mucho.

[@robgrubb420]

me too seeing it bend to the max I was thinking hmm.. if he caught one any bigger that rod was toast and that one did it.

[@ryandavenport252]

Was half that video off revere beach? Born and raised on cape and I don’t remember having a Boston city line view on buzzards bay lmfao… pretty sure u guys were on the north shore fishing Boston harbor in the second half of that video…

[@kris_designs3418]

I have always loved to fish from a kayak in Cape Cod, but the only reason that stops me are the sharks!!! How safe it is to go out there in a kayak and fish?!

[@robgrubb420]

ALWAYS DRESS FOR FULL IMMERSION... also what weight fly rod was that you snapped?

[@mrb401]

Really enjoyed this one 👍🏻 Hey Kevin, is it difficult to cartop that 132? I assume you have attachments to make it easier to load/unload?

[@kevinblinkoff8466]

I use towels/mats to put it up - put the bow up first, then lift the stern. Not hard to do but has scratched my truck a few times. Been thinking about picking up a Yakima Showboat accessory...

[@stripedbass5544]

I wish I had one never will so expensive I do surf haven't caught keeper in two years just started and going tomorrow

[@jjpope1144]

We’re you guys in an Autopilot 136 or 120? I’m thinking bigger is better for saltwater? I’d be trailering, so transportation wouldn’t be an issue.

[@Natureatnight668]

Fantastic to watch 😊 im renting a house on martha's vineyard for aweek in May 2024 looking for a dsys guided kyak fishing ..? Would you no anyone 😊 Mantly thsnks coming over for my 50th from the uk

[@waynehallock1263]

What pfd is that? Looks good.

[@kevinblinkoff8466]

It's called the "Old Town Lure PFD" has a high back that stays above the seat back. Highly recommend!

[@waynehallock1263]

@@kevinblinkoff8466 I have the NRS Chinook. Feel like it’s too bulky.

[@mdallas]

Drop the mic. If you ever had any doubts you can't anymore.

[@richardlemrise496]

Old Towne ad?

[@jedediyahaaronyisrael7118]

Must you know how to swim before kayaking?

[@kevinblinkoff8466]

You must wear a lifevest / PFD!

[@robgrubb420]

yes. swimming is a basic skill that every person should learn like walking... imagine never learning how to walk.

[@rockroosterfootwearmarketi5378]

Hi, this is Rock Rooster Footwear. We sent you an cooperation inquiry through your website. Would appreciate if you could have a check. Thanks!

[@staytight6340]

Lol These dudes are standing up and calling themselves kayakers😂 .......... More like a foot propelled plastic boat.

[@kross1957]

Where is your dry gear? You are extremely foolish to be fishing around the Cape without a drysuit. Kayakers be aware - this is NOT how you should do it.
