[@xlt_prem_1133]

Your videos are like a Netflix TV show series that I can't stop watching

[@YakFishField]

+XLT_Prem_ wow, thanks for the kind words man! I appreciate it.

[@thesajeguy]

@@YakFishField you should have a Netflix series it would blow up!

[@garywood8449]

I don’t care how many times I watch this ~ I CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF IT! Next year I AM GOING TO to follow behind you on this one. You are definitely my fishing hero.

[@vmaxrydr1]

As mentioned the production is very well done, from the music to the underwater views of the fish being released. Thanks for the effort to put this together.

[@YakFishField]

+vmaxrydr1 thanks for watching and the kind words! I'm a self taught editor but getting better and better.

[@Ariautoace]

You know that the partnership is good with Railblaza and it does not feel like an upsell when the production is great and RB's products are excellent. Good job. Also she got the hero shot, she got it on camera.

[@galvestonkayakoutfitters4446]

Congrats! There's nothing quite like battling a warrior in the deep blue. What a warrior it was!

[@YakFishField]

+Sean Rogers thanks Sean! I was stoked.

[@petedevine6563]

I have been following yours and Yak Motley videos for a couple of months now and I have been kayak fishing since the spring. I have a been using a big rig, and because of you, I just recently bought a 2015 hobie outback- what a kayak- I'll be going to the outer banks in three weeks to do some fishing for three days- my first big fishing trip. love your videos

[@YakFishField]

+Pete DeVine awesome man, that's great to hear. Thanks for watching brother!

[@fraggershall]

Is there a well on those little kayaks? Another great vid Robert!

[@YakFishField]

They make one for em, yeah

[@theDrJimmer]

Can't believe how close the sailfish jumped to your kayak! By the time I got mine close enough to the kayak, it was wore out. It just kind of flops around on my video ha. That's awesome!

[@YakFishField]

Yeah man this one fought forever! Took me like 20 minutes. Couldn't believe it still had energy when I got it close, I thought it'd be done way before that. Fun fish!

[@constantawareness4854]

Amazing bro, you have balls of steel, I'm surprised your kayak stays afloat lol. Great videos. I'm practicing with my kayak now, it may be a while before I do some of the crazy stuff you do. Gotta learn till I feel like my kayak is an extension of my body first.

[@YakFishField]

Absolutely man, gotta work your way up to offshore kayak fishing. When you’re ready to try it, can’t go wrong booking a trip with Deep Blue Kayak Fishing. They’ll put you on em!

[@harrisa2006]

splendid video robert!

[@boydrogers8028]

Hi Robert, I absolutely love the videos man and can't wait for you next video.I seen that you had a bag covering the front hatch of you hobie outback to keep your catch and was wondering where I would be able to buy one. (PS; I live in Australia).

[@YakFishField]

+Boyd Rogers that is a fish bag by a company called Native (they also make kayaks). I got mine at www.paddleva.com but not sure if they ship to Australia. Big company so they might!

+Brad Shitnlager glad to hear it Brad, thanks for watching!

[@LightRockFishingValladares]

Best kayak fishing video I've ever seen! Awesome dude awesome! You are the man! How many gopros & batteries do you take?

[@YakFishField]

+LightRockFishing Valladares I typically run five GoPros lately, but two are very situational shots like attached to my gaff or my paddle or something. For batteries I typically have about 3-4 spares on me per camera. That's all excessive though, I think the average videographer can get away with 2 or 3 cameras so they can get a few angles of each shot to keep the shot moving constantly.

[@cameronfell1909]

Amazing editing, music, and video! Congrats on the fish (even though I'm a little late) thanks for sharing your adventure!

[@YakFishField]

+Cameron Fell thanks man!

[@awesomerandomstuff9853]

U r my favorite fisherman youtuber. Thx for making productions

[@YakFishField]

+Sp8 thanks for watching!

[@orionsmith9852]

I know not much is gonna compare to catching a sailfish on a kayak lol, but come up to Kentucky and catch some big flathead and blue catfish with us boys up here. One of the best, if not the best freshwater fight there is! You sure won't regret doing it!

[@YakFishField]

I've fished Kentucky multiple times, usually Kentucky Lake or Barkley. I would love to get on a big catfish, that's one video I've never done. What's the best month for that?

[@orionsmith9852]

Robert Field they spawn around June, that's for flats an blues both. I've caught a lot of my fish from April up till they start to spawn then after they come off the nest until the water temp gets below 40 and stays there. When I buy my kayak this month it would be great for you to come up here and drift fish the Ohio river with me!

[@orionsmith9852]

If you want you can email me at [e-mail] and we could setup a time for you to come up and get on some fish

[@YakFishField]

The problem is lining up funding for the travel and whatnot bro. I'd have to align it with another trip/reason for going up there.

[@1jjwilliams]

Awesome video woo-hoo! As Rob would say Fish On! I'm loving it!

[@DwayneMcguire]

man that's awesome and has to be a bucket list if you can't do it a the time

[@johnharvey6685]

Robert Field why do the guides on that red live bait rod twist around the rod?

[@davidcortez8265]

O

[@ouchabn]

Cool video and bucket list

[@YakFishField]

+ouchabn thanks man!

[@richardN64]

Amazing video!!! Congrats for the catch! I see in this trip you change your Penn 309 for a Release Reel (SG or LG?) called now Truth Reels. You notice a big difference between Penn 309 and Truth, considering the difference in Price?Cheers

[@YakFishField]

+Richard Kayak Fishing absolutely man, the Truth Reels SG is a dream. I love that thing. I'll be picking up a few more before next summer.

[@richardN64]

+Robert Field Thank you very much for replaying, for this type of fishing, do you use mono or bried?

[@YakFishField]

+Richard Kayak Fishing 40 lb braid main line with a 6-foot 80 lb fluoro leader to a 3-foot 80 lb single strand wire leader for offshore fishing. Fluoro is optional but I think it matters when trolling if the water is clear like in south Florida. If the water isn't super clear, skip the mono and just go braid to wire.

[@richardN64]

+Robert Field You are a gentleman, thanks for sharing ! :)

[@andrewhelton1289]

Awesome work as ususal!!!

[@YakFishField]

+Andrew Helton thanks bro!

[@stevemcc4447]

Way to go! My 16 year old and I really enjoy your great videos. Lived down that way many years. Never gets old catching those fast, beautiful fish. We just got into the kayak universe, though, and truly appreciate your tips and advise. I do have a couple questions. Are some rod holders better than others, which do you prefer? What kind of radio do you prefer? Thanks

[@YakFishField]

Awesome man! Those fish are definitely special. I like the Railblaza Rod Holder II. Get em at www.yak-gear.com As for radios, I haven't had a ton of luck keeping one alive for more than a year, haha. I've used Uniden and Cobra, and I think I preferred Uniden best. My advice would be either go cheap so you can afford to replace them, or go expensive so they hold up. I always do the former.

[@stevemcc4447]

Robert Field hey thanks for the advice. I meant to ask you about paddles. Do you have a paddle that you think it is smart for being out on the ocean? I was kind of leaning toward Carlisle, maybe?

[@MARCELOHOFFMANN]

hello Robert Field, my names Marcelo Hoffmann i am from Brasil. Your videos are well produced and enjoyable to see.congratulations.

[@blakejohnson4279]

Congrats on that sail fish Hey Ive been looking for a fishing kayak any suggestions for a good one

[@Airbournerules67]

Any of the Hobie mirage series kayaks are a great option

[@YakFishField]

+Blake Johnson I'm using a Hobie Outback in this video and it's great.

[@blakejohnson4279]

+Robert Field I'll have to look into those but I recently got a pelican kayak

[@kienansanger5865]

I just started watching and I love it so far but I live in nh so we got bluefish tuna and during the summer I caught a 15 foot thresher the mist scariest thing I ever saw to jump out of the water

[@nicholaschaihong6029]

... Think of a footlong subway. Now multiply that by 15, that is what you are saying you caught

[@alexterry1902]

+Nicholas Chaihong a thresher shark has a long tail, I believe him

[@joelouieOWNZ]

Crazy footage bro! Hey I'm new to fishing... I want to buy a fishing reel for lake and pond fishing for game smaller than 5lbs. What can I buy? What's the best tackle to buy and what type of line should I use. Thanks

[@YakFishField]

+Jose Ortega I use Manley Rods for small game (www.manleyrods.com) and Lews makes some great reels around $100 that are often on sale. I typically use 20lb FINS braid as my main line with a 15lb Seaguar fluoro leader for bass and stuff like that.

[@MatrixMax-3]

Where did you buy the spear? And where you keep your fish? Is the space big in the boat in the front?

[@RIYakFishing]

"Another damn bonita". Those are a prized catch up here in New England.

[@YakFishField]

+RIYakFishing I think you're thinking of bonitO, not bonitA. They're two different fish. Bonito are good eating, bonita are very bloody and only used for bait that I know of. Bonita is also called false albacore, bonito are atlantic bonito.

[@RIYakFishing]

We get BonitA AKA false albacore up here in New England for about 2 months a year and they are HIGHLY sought after. They are not good eating and most anglers will release them. But, false albacore is definitely not a junk fish up here. BonitO, or Atlantic Green Bonito are also a highly sought after catch up here. They come around the same time as False Albacore and are VERY good eating.

[@joshuathompson9558]

Hey bro..just curious what do you do with the fish you catch...do you sell it to local markets or restaurants?

[@achigurh88]

not a lot of room for error when landing in yak... did yall take more time letting the sailfish get tired? great vid as always

[@YakFishField]

+achigurh88 Christina muscled her in really quickly, she actually made fun of me for taking so long. You can see that even after about a 30-minute fight, it still almost pulled my shoulder out of socket when I finally got my hands on her. They're the wimps of the billfish family, but they're still strong fish.

[@petehayes9497]

Ive done some sail fishing in El Salvador no luck here yet but as soon as I get back to Texas I will be moving to Florida. How long are you able to record on one Go Pro. Ive had alot of luck of crystal beach area as well with bull reds and sharks.

[@YakFishField]

+Pete Hayes nice! Typically 1.5-2 hours

[@bobbydunkin4284]

Is this more stressful on the back compared to standing and reeling in a fish on a boat?

[@ammcknockiter]

How do you get such good sound quality from the GoPro I have the hero4 and sounds crap

[@YakFishField]

You'll notice I usually have the headmount on when I'm talking. I take the audio from that and layer it under the video of the camera facing me and match them up. Much better audio from the headmount. And use the soft plastic back for the Hero 4.

[@ammcknockiter]

[@YakFishField]

Yessir!

[@jcipriani88]

What kind of two way radio are you using? Also, what is the make and model of your red reel and rod and what pound line? sorry for all the questions but I'm new to fishing and even newer to Kayak fishing.

[@YakFishField]

+Jerome Cipriani it's a VHF radio by Uniden. That's what you want for offshore - a VHF - so you can call the coast guard. The red rod is a custom, the red reel is a Truth Reels SG and it is awesome. I'm using 40 pound braid as my main line with a 65 lb fluoro leader to a 61lb wire leader for these fish.

[@Salty_004]

Do you just start jigging anywhere or do you find where the fish r @ with ur fish finder?

[@YakFishField]

Out there there isn't much structure, I'm just blind jigging. Depends on where I am though. In Panama, I'm jigging structure 100% of the time.

[@tommywickel7371]

What for rod was that the one you caught the first king with it was a ref bait caster?

[@YakFishField]

The red one? That's a custom build.

[@Nik-dn1vt]

hi bro which software are u using editing your videos? sick!!!

[@luke-lt5bc]

Very Nice Sailfish!

[@juancarlosperez993]

Great production! I just got my True SG reel one this vídeos was one of the reasons I buy it, just a question did you fight the sail fish on pre set strike drag or did you go full on it? Thank you!

[@YakFishField]

+Juan Carlos Perez I didn't go full on it, with big fish I like to leave it looser so they can run when they want to, and then I thumb it when I want to put some pressure on them or pull them up to the surface near the boat. I'd rather have a slightly longer fight than risk losing the fish.

[@juancarlosperez993]

+Robert Field Thanks for the tip! Great production!

[@vantubb669]

Hey I was wondering how your sound on your GoPro is so clear? Because whenever I take mine fishing it's always hard for my voice to be picked up, my voice sounds faint and distant. I have the underwater case on it as well

[@YakFishField]

+Van Tubb I take the audio from the GoPro on my head and match it up to the video of the camera facing me. You'll get much clearer audio from the headmount.

[@xerotao]

Called a spiral guides. Its to stop twisting of the rod blank
