Chasing Peacock Bass on the Isle Switch Paddleboard

  • One of the main fish I wanted to catch when I was in Florida was a Peacock Bass. I was in Bradenton. There are no peacocks in that area. As I did my research on where I could catch a Peacock, I came up with two locations: West Palm, and Naples. Both were 2 hours or more away. But with the Isle Switch Paddleboard I knew I could access the canals in Naples very easily - and fish water that you can't reach by land. So that was my decision.
    And it paid off!
    I saw a LOT of peacock bass - unfortunately, I couldn't get a lot of them to bite. But, it was still an EPIC experience that would not have been possible without the Isle Switch.

    Thanks once again to Isle for making this DREAM CATCH come true. Grab one of their awesome paddleboards like the Switch and start making some memories! islesurfsup.sjv.io/Y9gAQP

    Of course I missed this, and you were even kind enough to mention me! Awesome trip down there. Cameras overheat so easy in that Florida sun. Good work on that paddleboard, and I'm so glad to see you scratching one off the bucket list. 👍

    • @AaronHuntFishing
      @AaronHuntFishing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks man. I really expected to fish more and catch more- but the week became more about relationships and other people. It was also post-spawn, abnormally warm and dry, and also a bad Red Tide, so tough conditions overall. Probably not the optimal time to be there for fishing in hindsight. I need to do a wrap-up video.
      But this fish was the highlight for me.

    Yeah buddy! Nice work on a bucket list fish. They really are beautiful fish. The music was getting me all excited and was hoping it was coming. Nice job dude. Loving these vids. Editing is killer.

    My son lives in Boca Raton. Last April when I was there we fished Okeechobee for largemouth and Lake Ida in Delray for Peacock bass. Caught my P.B. Largemouth at Lake O and he and I caught 24 Peacock. All on jerk baits. For a perspective, I am fishing Cross Creek tomorrow. Yikes! Looking forward to your next video. Always entertaining.

    Cool looking fish! So glad you were able to get one. Always fun to catch a new species for the first time. Great job! That paddle board seemed to work out great for you. Seemed really stable for an inflatable

    • @AaronHuntFishing
      @AaronHuntFishing  ปีที่แล้ว

      The paddleboard was amazingly stable. Almost felt like a floating personal dock. I thought about it less than I do my kayak or canoe. And yeah - I was thrilled to catch one of those.

    The charter boats typically use live bait to fish for peacocks so that explains why the swim bait worked.

    • @AaronHuntFishing
      @AaronHuntFishing  ปีที่แล้ว

      I went into it with a plan to use things that mimic baitfish. Just wish I could have fooled a few more!

      I don't. But all i did was use 2 nylon cam straps, and run them over the board and through the jeep witht he doors open. This is how we secure our Canoe at home as well. Straps like these are all you need: amzn.to/3I0fjEv

    Nice work! Noticed you were using the insta360, for fishing vids did u like it better than the GoPro?

    • @AaronHuntFishing
      @AaronHuntFishing  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. So far I'll say they do different things well. The 360 camera in 360 mode does add a lot to my editing time. but I think the extra angles are worth it. But, the PQ in 360 mode is a little less than the 2.7k of the GoPro. I haven't used it as a direct replacement for the GoPro yet. Mainly because I don;t have a microphone solution - and honestly that wasn't why I got the 360 anyway. It's really a b-roll / second-angle camera for me.

    How is your lower back after siting in that position for the entire time?

    • @AaronHuntFishing
      @AaronHuntFishing  ปีที่แล้ว

      No problems - the seat is very comfortable. I changed my leg positions a few times. Just like I do on the kayak. In fact in some ways it was easier because I could completely cross my legs.
