[@VelocityFishing]

Another amazing video Robert. Never realized how incredible looking the Rooster Fish is! So much content packed into one video. The documentary style is perfect. Also, if anyone has a free minute, any feedback on my videos is beyond appreciated! Tight lines Rob

Thanks Velocity! I really appreciate that man.

[@StickEmFishing]

I checked out your channel and I think that fish tank is going to be super sweet! if you have a minute I would appreciate if you returned the favor and check out my channel. if you like it be sure to subscribe. I gave a few videos a like and I subbed. keep it up!

[@VelocityFishing]

Hello Grayson haha

[@fishingwiththevalentins]

This video is so amazing, I have so many comments I don't know how to start, Whales, Snakes, Fish, Big Birds .... I'm still halfway watching and I'm blown away so far.

[@YakFishField]

Glad you’re enjoying it!

[@sevegomez7805]

I love the jack just floating around behind the kayak

[@YakFishField]

Yeah, I tried to find him after I released the rooster but couldn’t. Guessing he either recovered and went down or a shark got him.

[@HiepNguyen-uu9vn]

One lucky guy Robert. Love seeing your videos.

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Hiep!

[@fishing-fanatic3427]

Good job on the rooster! Patience and perseverance paid off!!!

[@YakFishField]

Yeahhhhhhh buddy! Time and time again that proves to be the case.

[@theeagle6823]

This guys awsome to watch.I can watch u all day

[@YakFishField]

+Max Throttle glad you're enjoying the vids Max, thanks for checking em out!

[@JVDigital1979]

The way you caught that rooster fish was classic. Great video!

[@YakFishField]

I was so stoked man. Had given up hope

[@Level.up.fishing]

Hell yeah buddy! Glad you got your rooster, and from the yak too. Now that's what I call badass

[@YakFishField]

I was just a little stoked as you could tell! Haha thanks Nick

[@Level.up.fishing]

No problem. i see you quite a bit on the TKF facebook page. I'm still trying to get my first slot red from the yak so i got a ways to go before i get a rooster haha

[@pajet3798]

Awesome video Robert. Special moment when you get a first of a species. It's pretty funny with the captions how every time you say yellowfin tuna it picks it up as "elephants". Keep up the good work Robert.

[@Billmcd1974]

Congrats on the Rooster...still on my bucket list. Cool fish

[@YakFishField]

It’s SUCH a rad species. Spoiler alert: this was NOT the biggest one I landed on the trip. 2 more episodes coming, next one tonight!

[@imorange6016]

This is the kind of videos we've been waiting for NICE JOB MAN!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man! Got more coming. Gonna start posting an episode once a week!

[@WaynJul]

Thats great catching some tuna and topping it off with the Rooster fish. Snakes on a plane/ Snakes on a kayak.

[@YakFishField]

Hahaha "who put these MFing snakes on this MFing ocean!"

[@lorannorx3623]

Good fishing got me stoked to get back on the water and go hunting as I should...

[@YakFishField]

Nice man, glad to hear it!

[@east_tex_will8264]

That was awesome! Trip of a life time, thank you for sharing.

[@YakFishField]

My pleasure man, it was definitely an awesome trip! I've got more episodes coming, going to be posting once a week. If you dig the content I'd appreciate a sub!

[@lildawn_9401]

I love your channel, your the motivation for me to keep searching for my favourite fish!

[@YakFishField]

Nice! Glad to hear it man

[@brandonkirk103]

Amazing video as usual Robert, keep up the amazing work!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man I appreciate that!

[@glenstrella3823]

Excellent video! Very entertaining and loved the excitement.

[@YakFishField]

I appreciate that Glen!

[@FTW1374]

Great Panama series Rob, as always I really enjoy your storytelling style. Keep them coming!

[@YakFishField]

+J Corr thanks man I appreciate that

[@Jacob-lw8km]

Epic as always, I'm now planning to go to this resort soon. It looks awesome!

[@Jacob-lw8km]

Also just wanted to say that you are my favorite KZbinr and that you are the reason I got into kayak fishing especially fishing for musky from a kayak. Which is now my favorite style of fishing. And it's all thanks to you man, you are the best and your videos are awesome. I hope they never stop, keep up the good work man :)

[@YakFishField]

It's my favorite place to fish that I've been to so far. You can join me on a trip out there bro, I guide groups 3-4 times a year there now. Hit up [e-mail] and tell em you want to go with me sometime and they'll send you more info.

[@YakFishField]

And thanks for the kind words brother! Glad you dig the content. Encouragement like that is what keeps me doing the videos bro, so I really appreciate it!

[@VentureTube]

Great video as usual Robert! C'MON!!

[@YakFishField]

+VentureTube thanks bro!

[@M4Z1N]

Beautiful fish! It looks so beautiful out there. Great Job bro.

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man!! It's absolutely breathtaking out there. We ride horses up to the top of the mountain and the view is insaaannneeee.

[@roycooper7132]

Wow amazing video like always! Nice job on the rooster, Tight lines Robert 🎣

[@YakFishField]

+Roy Cooper thanks Roy!

[@markgardiner1613]

Nice video Robert. Looks like a great place to kayak fish.

[@YakFishField]

+Mark Gardiner it is! I’ll be back there in January

[@elizabethsangiorgio270]

what did you do with the jack that died on the top of the water when you tried to revive it? I wonder who else noticed that

[@YakFishField]

I tried to find her after i released the roosterfish, but she was gone. She either recovered and swam back down, or a shark got her. She got hooked deep by the jig. Unfortunate, but it happens from time to time. Nothing gets wasted in the ocean though.

[@elizabethsangiorgio270]

well at least you tried to save it and that's what counts =)

[@austinprosser4179]

Intro "the question is can i land it"? Thumbnail, holding a Rooster fish! I wonder🤔...

[@YakFishField]

+Austin Prosser haha spoiler alert.

[@peytonmeidl3250]

True

[@DestinationFishing]

Nice job man, I'm glad you got what you were looking for.

[@YakFishField]

Thanks! I was just a little excited.

[@Hook2Cook]

You could NOT plan that one! Awesome

[@krisb6661]

Well done man, that Rooster is a beaut! Definitely one for my bucket list.

[@YakFishField]

The Punk Rocker of the Sea! Coolest looking fish I've caught IMO.

[@rcagle123]

Awesome Man! Looks like one helluva trip!

[@YakFishField]

It definitely was!

[@quinnfitzgerald8500]

RIP Mr. Jack Krevalle 1 like=1 prayer

[@YakFishField]

+Quinn Fitzgerald haha it sucks man but it happens sometimes. I poured one out for tha homie

[@redlinerecordings8928]

if you had put 20 seconds into reviving it, it probably wouldve survived! Live and let live my dude

[@sandyosbourne5737]

I love it

[@sandyosbourne5737]

Can I be in your next video

[@sandyosbourne5737]

Quinn Fitzgerald ddddddddddddddddddddddddeeddddddddddeddeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeereeeeeeeeertt

[@mathewdavis-adventuresandd6643]

Awesome. That rooster fish was pretty incredible looking.

[@YakFishField]

The Punk Rocker of the Sea! Such a cool fish.

[@hudsonr.743]

"That's the exciting thing about the ocean. Could be about anything really"

[@YakFishField]

Yep

[@jystcarter1773]

"IT'S A ROOSTER!!!!" 😂 Love it.

[@YakFishField]

I was stoked!

[@aidenmarks4034]

That rainforest looks beautiful

[@aidenmarks4034]

Robert Field Awesome!!

[@scotty187prolearner9]

Dude I’ve never seen such a positive channel I mean literally scroll through the comments try and find one he hasn’t replied to literally coolest dude ever I frickin wish I could fish with u one day 😂

[@kvartekmedia]

Bad ass series man , just started my channel & will get to this level! Keep these videos coming man & you'll continue to grow 👌🏽

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man, I appreciate it! You'll get there for sure. If I can do it, anyone can.

[@Jorgerodriguez-pe1wf]

Awesome video.. I'm actually planning a trip with a buddy to Los buzos .. very excited about that..

[@AA-ol6tb]

Wonderful your videos, Thanks for sharing them and I hope to see you soon. Greetings from chihuahua mexico

[@YakFishField]

+Alfonso Armendariz thanks Alfonso!

[@Asdfkhalid866]

Great video! I was wondering though if you got the big jack back to keep or just let the sharks have him?

[@YakFishField]

+Chuck Becher once I released the rooster I spent 20 minutes looking for him but never found it. Not sure if it went down or got taken by a shark or what. We don't ever really see sharks out there, but it IS the ocean so obviously there are some.

[@mattihalmari2539]

Episode 2, let's go!

[@YakFishField]

Hope you dig it bro!

[@mattihalmari2539]

Robert Field I sure did. Grabbed a box of chocolates and jerky and watched the entire vid

[@DwayneMcguire]

Awesome show 👍 🎣 beautiful fish

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Dwayne!

[@xtasyboi]

Great commentary and reaction to the rooster fish!

[@YakFishField]

Haha can't fake that reaction... I was stoked.

[@mitchlentini404]

You're my favourite kayak fisher

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Mitch!

[@MarkAnthonyBautista]

wow! lot of jacks in panama. what happened to the last big jack you caught? what knot you use to your leader and how many lbs of line and leader do you have? thanks man :)

[@YakFishField]

It swallowed the jig too deep, got hooked in the gut, and it was a longer fight. I wanted to go grab him and revive him once I realized he wasn't going down, but the rooster hit and I couldn't get over there. By the time I landed the rooster I couldn't find him, not sure if he went down, got eaten by a shark or just drifted too far to find him. Always sad when a fish dies on accident, but it happens now and then. I Was using 50# fluoro leader tied to 40# braid tied with a modified albright knot. Double up the braid using a bimini twist or spider hitch first.

[@MarkAnthonyBautista]

yeah! accident happens all the time, nice rooster fish though. hehehe! for almost 4 months fishing (port and small boat fishing) haven't try to land a big fish hahah! i tried jigging two weeks ago i hooked one using 150g lure (it's kinda big i guess) but unfortunately the leader snaps to my main line after 3 minutes of fighting haha! lesson learned, perfect knot is important when jigging. hopefully i can get one :)

[@robertkennedy976]

You should go to Costa Rica tamarindo beach I got several rooster fish

[@YakFishField]

+Neomanis Kennedy I'd love to fish Costa Rica!

[@michellemuskeyn329]

I love fishing, but because of where I live (Vancouver Canada) I don't really get to ocean fish much. I've never seen heard of, let alone seen a rooster fish! So cool man, thanks so much for making this video and showing me one. Definitely going on my bucket list to catch one along with a stergen, tarpon, lion fish, Goliath grouper and any type of shark would be AWSOME!!!!!

[@YakFishField]

They are an incredible species! Sturgeon are super fun too, I'll have 2 videos of them coming up in the next couple months. I was up in Oregon actually, not TOO far from you! Subscribe to my channel to catch those vids when they air. Thanks for watching!!

[@michellemuskeyn329]

Robert Field thanks for taking the time to respond to my comment! :)

[@michellemuskeyn329]

The Wanderer yes, I know that! I guess what I meant was I don't own a boat, and we don't have the cool tropical fish here like they have in Florida! Edit: my original comment was poorly written.... I know.

[@cullenscott2484]

Very cool video man. Found your channel today and it's very cool!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Cullen! If you dig the content, I'd appreciate a subscribe! More videos coming soon.

[@cullenscott2484]

Robert Field don't worry I already did!

[@redladyfish4201]

Congratulations on that rooster fish, that was amazing, that just show you that some accidents in kayak fishing can turn into unexpected surprises! Great job on the editing👌

[@YakFishField]

+Red Lady Fish it was a special moment for sure, and as you can tell I was just a little stoked ;) Thanks for watching!!

[@anewton2476]

Congratulations on catching your roosterfish you are awesome

[@KeyWestKayakFishing]

Fish Gods said bless you. Congrats on the Rooster.

[@YakFishField]

New to your channel, addicted already. Great video, subscribed and ready for more.

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Chris! My #FieldTrips series is airing now! Episode 6 just dropped tonight.

[@theoatmeal2853]

I almost cried laughing when the Jack was floating in the background while you realized you had a roosterfish on

[@YakFishField]

+Russell Wilson it was unfortunate, but it happens

[@SeaDragonAngler]

these videos are top quality, well done..... amazing fish

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man!

[@AndTeeter]

2nd time watching this one. Such an amazing experience. Will be adding this trip to my life goals.

[@YakFishField]

+GameHeads2012 glad you enjoyed it bro and do it! You won't regret it. If you ever wanna go fish with me there, email [e-mail] and they'll set it up. I go back 3-4 times a year now

[@GoldGlov3]

Looks like an incredible experience

[@YakFishField]

+Justin it definitely was Justin!

[@petersrum]

Great Video, One day i'll get over there! Congrats on the rooster!

[@YakFishField]

It's incredible out there Peter!

[@David-eh6qc]

I went on vacation to Panama a couple weeks ago and caught some Tuna and Snappers

[@YakFishField]

+Donkey nice work! I love it out there.

[@connordillon3911]

Please do this again this is amazing

[@YakFishField]

+Connor Dillon oh I will. More Panama episodes coming soon.

[@connordillon3911]

Awesome

[@m7airbi344]

Can you do a video of what you have setup on the hobie, I got the same, could you please include what rods you use? Thanks.

[@YakFishField]

+Mohammed almehairbi yes I will work on a video like that! Penn makes solid rods and reels for saltwater use.

[@m7airbi344]

Thanks a lot Robert!

[@sillymortalz]

The sound of rain hitting the camera is satisfying 😂

[@YakFishField]

Haha

[@hangingwithtyler2843]

Cool keep up the hard work ❤️ I love fishing

[@YakFishField]

Thanks, I will!

[@zitounatecgnologie645]

it's a maizing big man big fish Nice 🐟🐋🐳🎣🎣🎣

[@YakFishField]

+Aziz 7affar thanks Aziz!

[@gilberttorres3498]

When you launch from the beach. How far out do you go? I live in Ventura, Ca.

[@YakFishField]

There is no rule like that. Depends on where I’m at, what I’m fishing for and what the conditions are like.

[@gilberttorres3498]

Do you have anything planned out for SoCal in the future? Have you heard of Heroes on the Water? Veterans kayak fishing as means of therapy.

[@larrymcmakin1153]

Great video. Congrats on the rooster!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Larry!

[@ChoiceKayakFishing]

Cool video man. After watching your video I feel like I have do this. Thanks for all the info on you vid

[@YakFishField]

I head to Los Buzos 3 times a year and guide groups there now. Join me out there! losbuzos.com

[@ChoiceKayakFishing]

Robert Field what are the dates you go there and how much does it cost?

[@TheBowserJournal]

Don't you worry about lightning strikes when you are on open water? Is there something you can do to mitigate the risk?

[@YakFishField]

Sure I worry about it. Being in a plastic kayak helps lower the already astronomical odds. You should be more concerned about getting T-boned headed to work than struck by lightning. I don't spend my energy worrying about those 1 in a million things... too many real concerns to worry about in this world!

[@TheBowserJournal]

Good points to ponder. I actually worry more about other boaters not seeing me when I am on the water.

[@jaydenandarlen8817]

Bro you should come to Western Australia some time. Brilliant fishing here. Love your vids keep it up bro!

[@YakFishField]

I plan to man! Well I don't know which side yet, but I plan to do a week in NZ and a week in Aus somewhere!

[@jaydenandarlen8817]

Robert Field you should come to Western Australia bro! It's really good. Come to this town called Onslow and you can go out in a boat to the monte bello islands which is like a dream for every fisherman!

[@BitetheBaitFishing305]

Wow awesome show man really enjoyed it!

[@YakFishField]

+BitetheBait Fishing thanks man!

[@suniidove9275]

Wow, Amazing Fishing!

[@YakFishField]

+KH Rural Life thanks!

[@jasonpoultry0]

When you got bit on that blue runner live bait rig "oh shit" haha! Fantastic video as always Robert. Much love. "Snicklezs" from Instagram

[@YakFishField]

Hahaha it was on fire that morning! You know the bite is good when you can't even talk about one fish before the next one hits!

[@RoundeyeSamurai]

Awesome video... great Rooster!!!!

[@YakFishField]

+Andrew Burtt thanks Andrew!

[@MrBobby123]

@Robert Field what kind of knife is that? (11:36)

[@YakFishField]

The one on my PFD is the NRS Co-Pilot knife, and there's a link to it in the description of the video.

[@FumblingThrough]

Great vid, happy you got that rooster finally, but what about that jack you just sorta abandoned.... you never showed if you actually took care of that fish, and it looked pretty not good when it was floating away.

[@YakFishField]

+Fumbling Through because there was nothing to show. After I released the rooster I spent 20 minutes looking for it but never found it. Not sure if it went down or a shark got it or what. Unfortunate, but it happens. Anyone that fishes semi-regularly gut-hooks a fish now and then. Hopefully he swam off. If not, obviously they aren't endangered out there, and a shark got an easy meal. Circle of life!

[@organizedautist8292]

When you catch the fish do you keep it or do you let it go

[@YakFishField]

+Zman army watch the video and you'll find out..?

[@TheMikeman1971]

Awesome looking fish congrats.

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Mike!

[@TheMikeman1971]

Your welcome .

[@riderslife7311]

Awesome video man wish I could catch those fish

[@YakFishField]

+Riders Life you can! Come join us at Los Buzos bro, I guide trips out there now

[@FISH-OHOLIC]

Watching this makes me happy with a slight hint of jealousy mate. There's never enough time when your out in the water. I'd be out fishing 12 days a week if I could get away with it. Great video Great information Great location 10/10 for me 👏

[@YakFishField]

Couldn’t agree more man.

[@blackdessertrose]

Song used at 19:08? Awesome video btw, congrats on the rooster!

[@YakFishField]

I don’t remember man. Did you try the Shazaam app? Should tell you what song it is

[@RushJunkieTV]

Well produced I enjoy this video

[@YakFishField]

Thanks!

[@theonetheonlyw5483]

Robert, great video, ya got yourself a new subscriber here! Keep up the good work!

[@YakFishField]

+TheOneTheOnly W thanks!!

[@joe581]

What a video! This is what KZbin should be:)

[@YakFishField]

+Joe Conlon thanks Joe!

[@spatchimusPRIME]

So do you fly with your kayak or is it a different kayak different places?

[@82rocksolid]

Haha! It's a Rooster, Its a Rooster!!! Awesome man! Like I said Rooster's are my favorite fish! Nice catch and nice release man! Congrats! You got a new subscriber!

[@YakFishField]

Hahaha could you tell I was a little stoked? Thanks man!

[@82rocksolid]

Yeah for sure probably looked like a replay of when I caught my first one! They are awesome looking fish! I'm pretty lucky that my dad lives in Cabo. I'll keep on watching your videos man. Be cool to have you down to Cabo sometime! Tight lines bro!

[@Lucaslikestofish]

why did you guys keep as many as you did? are they dinner for everyone at the resort or something?

[@YakFishField]

+Luke Suder exactly. We were feeding 16 mouths and any extra goes to the locals.

[@Lucaslikestofish]

glad to hear that nothing was wasted! Good on ya

[@jrgford1]

another great one !!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Joe!

[@wicky3927]

great videos dude keep up the good work!!!!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks man!

[@DwayneMcguire]

Very welcome man awesome fishing man 👍🎣 ,,,,,,lol love the try something and edited it didnt work lol cracked me up

[@jimmyceltic4120]

Awesome video beautiful fish. Is that the Cabelas Salt Striker reel?

[@YakFishField]

+Jimmy Celtic thanks Jimmy! Yes it was. It's on the bottom of the ocean now, haha

[@kiahwells4408]

What rod and reel are you using for your spinning setup?

[@YakFishField]

+Kiah Wells umm I actually lost all those spinning setups during a badly timed flip offshore. I use Penn stuff mostly for saltwater spinning. Penn Conflict on a Bluewater Carnage 2 for jigging. Penn Battle series is solid and affordable, Penn Slammer is super solid but pricey

[@chrisweeks2495]

Love your videos if you are ever around Navarre or Pensacola fl would absolutely love to have the opportunity to fish with you

[@mako4823]

What lure did you use when you caught the Jack

[@YakFishField]

+MAKO I was catching them on a vertical jig, basically a big slab of metal with a hook dangling on dacron

[@2010nvillanueva]

Awesome fishing!

[@YakFishField]

Thanks Nelson!

[@そえやんチャンネルーーまったり釣る釣]

Amazing fish! Very beautiful! I want to made this movie!!

[@Salty_004]

What is the popper lure you where using out there?

[@YakFishField]

+I S L A N D B O Y I don't even know man, it's nothing special. Just a big 6 to 9" popper. Used a variety of colors, don't think it matters that much

[@evanh6746]

What is the all red rod you were using to troll live bait?

[@YakFishField]

That's a custom rod by Mark Crouse.

[@evanh6746]

Oh ok thanks

[@RapalaArmy]

Nice rooster Rob! Well done.

[@YakFishField]

+Rapala Canada thanks guys! I've caught quite a few fish on your lures out there in my 2 return trips since this video.
