This is WHY I Fish a Hobie Outback Kayak

GEAR LISTED BELOW:
I love fishing, especially kayak saltwater fishing. I have kayaked fished for a long time but I've never owned a kayak this nice. It is awesome exploiting the potential of this Hobie Mirage Outback kayak, especially standing up and catching fish. This speckled trout made the trip on this extremely windy day. The bay was gusting and rolling waves in, so this was really my only option on this day down here on the Alabama Gulf Coast.

Great Video started watching your videos yesterday. Kinda I ironic was talking to someone this morning about you. Turned out it was your mother 😆. Watch your video on GSP.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Haha that’s cool! She’s a nice lady for sure

[@oafishing]

Hobie is life! nice trout!

[@brucegoose6717]

Good content. You'll be at 10k subscribers in no time.

[@codyosborne9307]

I've gone back and watched every video you've ever released, Steven. Now I'm all out of Bama Saltwater content to watch. I'mma need to you release.... hmmm.... 25+ videos a day. Gotta get my fix, man.

[@AdamStuber]

Awesome speck! I fish that area about once a week and haven't come close to any that size. Great catch man!

[@BamaSaltwater]

Yessir!! Gotta find them aggressive fish, work baits fast and thorough to cover water

[@paulywally3780]

I’ve found that fishing these waterways in a kayak is super important. Never been able to catch the specks like I have in a kayak. They get spooked pretty easy and the kayaks seem to do the job well.

[@ericglenn4644]

Nice trout

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks!

[@Toasty_1992]

Badass! Just stumbled on your channel and subscribed. I really want to get this kayak. I am saving up for it even tho I know I can get a cheaper one and have money left over for a badass fish finder and other gadgets. I feel as much as I would use this kayak I would feel proud having this model even though I wouldn’t be able to afford a fish finder afterwards and other cool attachments for a while.

[@bunnpokefishing]

Congratulations 1k subscribe bro

[@shoua50]

Shorts!!!! Is it already that warm there. Nice catch

[@BamaSaltwater]

Oh yeah haha

[@kenson6725]

Hard to beat an Outback, I like it better than my PA.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Yup, I could’ve bought a new PA but went with this new Outback intentionally because of the size

[@andrewshevchuk2062]

Why did you stop kayak fishing?

[@kirkshammett94]

I mainly fly fish. How is the stability standing in this thing?

[@BamaSaltwater]

Very stabile !

[@toddramsay977]

Great video! Kinda short. I like the 15 to 20 min long videos, not long but you feel like you saw some catches. See RX Angler channel in TX.

[@BamaSaltwater]

I usually do too, sometimes the weather does not cooperate. I was 2-3 feet in Mobile Bay because of the wind that day haha

[@IMGhostRogue]

I’m new to Hobie outback, how do you get the wheels off by yourself

[@BamaSaltwater]

Getting them off is extremely easy. Just undo the little pin, and lift up on the yak.

[@IMGhostRogue]

@@BamaSaltwater how about when your back from the water? That’s the most trouble I’m having

[@BamaSaltwater]

@@IMGhostRogue that’s the hardest part. Easiest way without modification is to flip it on it’s side, install the wheels, then flip back over. Boondox used to make really good landing gear but it’s hard to find and can be fairly challenging to install
