[@willkuss5374]

Puppy drum and sheephead galore, nice.

[@RadReelingFishing]

They were delicious too. Thanks for watching.

[@michaelgarcia1251]

Keep Fishing RAD ! Enjoying your Videos !!

[@Floridawoodsbanshee]

Black drums are under rated. Very good eating fish. I had one 23 inch with worms so I only keep 22 inch or less.

[@willie2510]

They are very tasty

[@Msack1967]

Do you use the same rig for sheepshead and drum

[@RadReelingFishing]

yes

[@Msack1967]

Thx Jc new to this type of fishing but I'm leaning

[@rowdyriemer]

I hooked a pretty good size black drum at the Panama City marina recently on a cheap rod and reel. Had him right up to the edge, but the line snapped trying to get him over the fence. (Had to pull the line by hand, as he was too big for the drag on my small reel.) My 15 lbs. braid line broke in the process. :( I should have brought my drop net.

Great day on the water JC good video thanks for the Adventure thanks for bringing us along

[@FaithNFishing]

Black drum are a ton of fun! I need to get out and target those guys soon!

[@capt.j.toddwalker2028]

Awesome man solid fishing.

[@danieldonaldson6001]

Love the new intro JC!! You make the best south west Florida fishing videos and the best kayak fishing videos!! Keep it up!!

[@bigd5625]

Can you buy the pedal drive old town and when you get ready can you change it to the motor? I didn’t know if you could do that or just go ahead and buy the motor. I figured the pedal would be good exercise then when I can’t pedal because of my back I could change it out to the motor. I would greatly appreciate anyones answer on this. Thank you ahead of time!

[@RadReelingFishing]

The Old Town Predator PDL use to have an electric motor that was made to fit the pedal drive area. I'm not sure if that option is still available or not. That's the only Old Town kayak I know of that had that option.

[@bigd5625]

@@RadReelingFishing ah ok. Thank you JC!!! Good luck out there!

[@JETTIEROCKSFISHINGwithMIKED]

Man..you got those things dialed in brother

[@michaeltate9117]

[@FloridaBoyGrizz]

It just shows you don’t need expensive stuff to catch fish love your videos man

[@2005GMK]

Nice catch.

[@lisajenkins1482]

Nice video❤

[@jerzymike-sx5wv]

Ypu make it look so easy kayak fishing. Good job

[@ctdvargas]

How long is that cheap zebco rod? Ive only seen them in the 6ft length. Hoping to find a 6'6 one somewhere

[@RadReelingFishing]

Mine was $9

[@presidentsniper4462]

That little combo is better than some of the expensive stuff that is advertised thumbs up JC

[@richardblake4777]

Glad to see you back on them J.C., always enjoy your videos. Educate me on the difference between drum and sheepshead please. Snowed in in Arkansas.

[@RadReelingFishing]

Thanks for watching. Black Drum get much larger in comparison to a Sheepshead. I'm sure there's plenty of info online. They both eat crabs, shrimp and sandfleas, stuff like that. Drum are thicker bodied than the sheeps, and both are delicious to eat, having distinct difference in flavor and texture of the meat. There's a few things about them.

[@piinkwock9535]

You really blessing us with posting consitanly

[@MrGreen-sw1ly]

Can't go wrong with sheepshead but how you know that little boat is charter? Could easily be family outing?

[@RadReelingFishing]

Sheepshead are delicious. You do have a point there for sure...Captain or not, I still don't think it's ethical to crowd someone when you are in a boat. If fishing from land in a condensed public area, then thirty feet is tolerable, but un acceptable when boat fishing...Commercial fisherman and charter boat captains often wear waders to protect their cloths, he was wearing them. Also, he was doing everything for his passengers. I've seen him on the water several times before and he has always had different people. I actually had a very similar encounter with him last year where he crowded in on me when I was pompano fishing and he had three men with him. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@MrGreen-sw1ly]

@@RadReelingFishing I am sure you know more than me about this. I just thought charters are usually bigger boat.

[@Saltloony]

It was a great day.

[@tyso71]

Keeper sheeper lmao, I love your energy

[@garrettpresnell9575]

Hey buddy good stuff like always, what else can I say my man!!!! You always make it interesting I must say LOL...Anyway hey get back at me maybe we can hook up while I'm here....thanks

[@stevehogan8829]

Yep, he's got to be having a tough time to do that. Ha ha, you shoulda told him to get a Zebco. Ozark Trail and he'd do better.

[@RadReelingFishing]

Ha ha...too funny.

[@hedge7743]

Man, thats a good day right there! God bless, Stay safe, Tight lines! - Hedge

[@David-ly8ez]

Awesome fishing! JC looks like you are hooked on kayak fishing man , good for you, wish I could do as well.

[@claudiaweber7011]

Hey JC, love this video. FUN to watch! Side question, can you tell me what kind of battery (Lead acid or lithium, and what Amp Hour?) you were using in your OT 106 w/ Minn Kota? Because of you, I bought one! 👍😃🎣🐟💦

[@RadReelingFishing]

I use a class 27 100 amp hour lead acid marine/RV battery. I got it from Advanced Auto Parts, about $100.

[@andrzejserafin8427]

Hey JC ,great video as always, I'm just curious about how fast you can move against that strong the current?

[@RadReelingFishing]

When the current in the inlet is at a peak about 2.5 miles per hour at level 10 on the remote. I generally cruise in that peak speed current on level 7.5 on the remote at abut 1.5 miles per hour. It depends on how much weight I have in the kayak and also which direction the wind is blowing also...

[@joshuaarjona694]

Hey JC quick question how long should you wait to fish after a flash freeze?

[@RadReelingFishing]

I live in south Fl, I have no idea. Thanks for the vote of confidence though.

[@joshuaarjona694]

Hey man I'm from south texas and I have no idea how to handle cold weather thanks again JC.

[@Saltynativefishing]

Hey man. How can I contact you?

[@RadReelingFishing]

All three: instagram, facebook, gmail are at radreelingfishing Go to my KZbin main page and FB and Instagram are linked in the right part of the banner. Go to the about page of my KZbin account and the email is on that page.

[@Saltynativefishing]

I messaged you

[@chrisfilippi]

Hey JC another great vid. I really would like to see your routine reel maintenance on that reel. I am sure you are fresh water rinse after each trip but curious to see the condition of drag washers. Your vids helping me get through tough cold weather. Best Chris

[@2003zq8]

Hey J.C , lookin' forward to seeing the Zebco rod get worked by some snook. That will be the real test. lol

[@scmcreations]

Ya ever have drum with what worms in it?

[@TheNyzzler]

His last video he had one with a shit load of worms

[@JimMFishing]

As for that captain who thinks he owns the water, I think its pure rudeness on the water. Next time, put a 2oz Hopkins on that combo and start casting it off his bow. Do it enough with lots of splashes. Ruin the bite. He'll get the message as will his charter. Be sure to get his registration numbers, too.

[@jamesrobinson2715]

Smart not landing your fish until the boat went past you. I have stood on my rod until a boat went past. If you don't do it they'll fish your hole out.

[@marjoriebray5418]

Good move with that passing boat!! And yet that charter captain pulled that move. Something like that is totally unacceptable. Looks like his mother never taught him right!!

[@t26803]

I use cheep setups all the time and for years and years... If and when they go bad get another.. I have never spent a lot of money on reel and rod or tackle of any sort. Many people spend more on one piece of equipment then I will spend on my rods and reels for the rest of my life. What's the point. Advertisements make people spend money on crap they do NOT need. Most $25 reel rod combos will last you 10 years or more in any conditions. Don't be a sucker. You don't need a salt water reel, salt water Boat or special anything to do most type of fishing. It's not rocket science. It's fishing just the same as any fishing. I use my Crestliner Walleye boat in Florida 20 miles offshore and then next week in a 50 acre lake in Wisconsin. May want to get a galvanized or aluminum trailer is all. I use freshwater tackle in salt and salt in fresh. Rinse and repeat. People love to make it complicated and costly. It is not!!!!!!!!!!!! I Have seen people fishing in Pontoons off shore 3 miles next to $90,000.00 bay boats and people in john boats in wi. fishing next to $100K plus lund fiberglass walleye boats that would sink the first couple waves over the front as they don't have a self bailing haul. They look nice but the pontoon will drain at least without relying on Pumps. So just go have fun and don't buy the Hipe. CApt. Tim Capt. Tim

[@abigailbalneg6863]

What about craka crab I like to see you 😏

[@fishydubsfishing6516]

Charter and commercial try getting up on them you’ll see some of the nastiest people in the world

[@jackfunk5765]

well ya ain't fibbing. Good job. Oh by the way I hate you. You get to fish for a living. I really don't hate ya I am just jealous as all hell. I guess I have to sort out my priorities.

[@RadReelingFishing]

Thanks for watching and commenting. I actually have three different jobs within my corporation. One of them is fishing and editing videos. I also manage an online presence that includes websites, selling books and audio lessons. I also play music for a living. It's great being my own boss for sure. I don't make a lot of money to live on though. My accountant gets a chuckle out of how little I make and that I'm able to live off of it. I drive a 21 year old car and haven't had a car payment in over twenty years. This means I get to keep the bare minimum for car insurance payments. I very rarely purchase paper towels and also do without a lot of other luxuries. Black beans, tacos made with frozen ground turkey and salads are some of my main meals for dinner. I live a frugal lifestyle. I very rarely go out to a restaurant to eat. There are loads of ways to not spend money in order to be able to fish for a living as one of my part time jobs. I work many, many hours in a week to make very little to live on though...
