I use almost the exact same set up, but instead of the SUP paddle, I have an extended length kayak paddle. You can sit on the cooler and paddle like a kayak and you can stand up and either paddle or push pole with it as well. If drift fishing, you may want to use a drift sock as well. Congrats on the purchase, I use mine a lot more than even the kayak.
I just got two Bote ISUPs for the kids and have adopted one (of the boards) for skinny water fishing to supplement the kayak. It's 10' 8" and doesn't appear to have the stability of your rackham for sure, but it's a nice alternate option and gets the job done. I landed a 35" pb red on my second trip out with it 😊
Awesome new ride. I kayak fish so enjoy kayaks and small boats like this since they very similar. You, lawson and Brent are my favorite 3 fishing you tubers!
I’ve been looking for a tarpon rackham for a while as well. Might just have to settle for the new redfish one. Good looking board brother, definitely like it paired with a fly rod. Have fun flinging some feathers and tight lines
I got a bote HD last sep 2020 and that V hull in the front has a design flaw. So ive gone about 20 times, I like to pull up on little islands and shallow water where I pull the nose of the board up and sit it on dry sand not to mention putting the board in, and getting it ready it has to sit on something usually concrete or rocks. It has worn thru all the paint in that time and is now thru the shell. Real nice gator shell tech super tough worn out by sand mostly.
Board seems redundant with a gheenoe and then we’re really comparing this board to fishing kayaks of the same price point... when you upgrade size on the gheenoe it’ll make more sense, love your vids favorite was you being dragged under the docks and still landing that giant keep em coming.
The day with the buggy whip was a knockout, nothin short of that. Nestor needs to send me a msg and I’ll bump his bank for some of those flies. Knees tell me I’m nuts for even considering a SUP but I love it’s versatility. Love the channel, keep after it. You remind me of me in younger days. Screw it, let’s fish!!
I would love to see more paddle board content. Love the sight fishing but in Jacksonville where muddy bottom is king don’t have that available. Love the channel.
These are the best platforms for skinny water fishing also they are fast when paddling to your spot or just out casually paddling around. I have a couple videos also on my channel showing just how skinny they get when fishing in tidal areas such as ozello crystal river area
Found your channel from looking for different Bote products. Planning to move to Florida in the next few years and get back into fishing more! Subscribed for sure
Nice have you run your BOTE over anything like oyster beds got it Scratched or anything like that? I'm looking at there inflatables due to storage space for me and portability for me .
Fantastic! Thanks, I am just about to purchase one of the BOTEs as well, that is awesome fishing and the reds look like fun, we dont get them in Australia.
At first I wanted to upgrade from my HD to a Rackam, aint no way now all I want to do is get rid of this HD 6 months and its falling apart about to be leaking. I cant believe it I bought the board cause I thought it was durable, pulling it up on sand beaches and the waves rocking it constantly wore the shell off the the v nose in 6 months.
If you get into Flyfishing it's a Rush . I've been doing it now for many years . Most gear I have Fleamkt special stuff . Once ya pick up a Flyrod ya almost never wanna use a regular rod n reel lol. It's a Rush like no other goodluck to ya .
First of all , Da bote it seems stable it’s an easy transport, enough room to put minimal things , and it gets the job done , now I just saw one on ( pimpmyfly) ‘s video it looks just like yours and it works ! Now today’s catch , bro watching you hook up was stellar those were some nice fish and you having a kick azz time , I’m an old dude and need maybe a micro skiff azz my balance isn’t that good anymore but all around that’s a great day fish’n 👍🏼 tight lines !
I currently have a Duck inflatable kayak and trying to invest in something like yours . Inflatable SUP since you already own this what's your experience with it Saltwater I've had comments folks tell me that I have to worry about oyster beds. Any experience with this thing? In your choice of this Boat /SUP ? TIA
man I envy you!! I'm I freshwater stream fly fisherman. I'm really wanting to get more into salt water as well. I'm currently looking at a bote Rackham areo it's inflatable. I think it's would do fine however I would also like to take it in Rocky Rivers as well because that's all I have back home. do you think that would be fine?
How shallow does it draft (basically length of bottom fin)? I fly fish from my inflatable paddleboard on the west coast of Florida and I'm thinking of upgrading to something similar. It get's sketchy hooking into big sharks on the inflatable too...
Maybe you already have, but check out @ThresherFishing he modified his sup, pretty cool, similar fishing in Texas. Also, for those of us that don't fly fish, maybe do this skinny water with ultra light spinning gear? Keep up the great content
Such an awesome video. Keep in mind while fishing that area, ksc and ccafs are no drone zones and you could get into some trouble if you’re not careful. Great fishing!

Thoughts on the new sup??? Forgot to mention it but it will be used for beach tarpon as well!
You crushed them great investment
I fish 99% from my 2019 Rackham and its way better to use the anchor pole than the anchor and rope setup!
Very cool. I’ve been looking for a flats fishing option that’s easy to transport. I hadn’t heard of the Bote. Thanks Justin!
Awesome addition for going super skinny, you keep putting out some of the best inshore content on all of YT.

Sick new board and love seeing those flies put to good use 🤙🏻
Just like lawsons little micro skiff! That’s sick bro!
Lawson has the Rover which is much bigger and can hold an engine.
@@justin_menendez I didn’t say exactly the same😉😂

Love the Bote. Between the Gheenoe and the Bote you have inland waters on lock.
Best video yet. Heck of job using that fly rod, epic day!
Thank you for watching!
Awesome new ride. I kayak fish so enjoy kayaks and small boats like this since they very similar. You, lawson and Brent are my favorite 3 fishing you tubers!
Thank you👏
This is no doubt the dopest video you have made. Amount of fish (and quality!), on the fly, from the Bote. Super sick! 🤙🏼😎
I’ve been looking for a tarpon rackham for a while as well. Might just have to settle for the new redfish one. Good looking board brother, definitely like it paired with a fly rod. Have fun flinging some feathers and tight lines
Yeah I’ve never seen one for sale until this one.

He says ... “ so I don’t have to jump out and wade” but then few minutes later
He jumps in.😂
The whole time...
That’s the Mendez special lol
😂
What a day. I was in South florida in February water was muddy as hell. Nice to see some clear water
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I know its two years old but I think that paddle board was a good idea lol.
Your fly fishing videos are outstanding.
The day with the buggy whip was a knockout, nothin short of that. Nestor needs to send me a msg and I’ll bump his bank for some of those flies. Knees tell me I’m nuts for even considering a SUP but I love it’s versatility. Love the channel, keep after it. You remind me of me in younger days. Screw it, let’s fish!!
That’s awesome! More of this! That kind of fishing is some of the best!
Thanks for watching!!
That snook run was the most epic thing I've seen today 👍
Nestor must be pumped you’re catching fish on flies he made for you!
He is!
Yes. Yes I am 😂
Nice video ... I just ran across your channel. I recently bought a Kaku Voodoo and I’m planning on fishing waters similar to what you have here.
That was an epic day of fly fishing the shallows! The little shallow water skiff is handy
Thank you for watching!
You have made a ton of great videos but this has been your best and my favorite one so far and I don't even fly fish.
I’m moving to fort myers next month and this just got me excited to fish out there.
Lit man, love the snook on the fly
I would love to see more paddle board content. Love the sight fishing but in Jacksonville where muddy bottom is king don’t have that available. Love the channel.
Now that’s the-way to fish well done Keep em comming J We have nothing like this in the UK 🇬🇧 👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
These are the best platforms for skinny water fishing also they are fast when paddling to your spot or just out casually paddling around. I have a couple videos also on my channel showing just how skinny they get when fishing in tidal areas such as ozello crystal river area
I fish off a paddle board as well and they are fun to fish off of. Fly fishing on one is way more difficult and good to see you got it down so quick!
You just had a day I could only dream of having🤣
Hell yeah my favorite type of fishing now and days is going out on my paddle board and sight casting reds trout and lady fish up in destin
good video it's that time of year skinny water is the place to be

Awesome bote and video. Every time I go fly fishing I end up giving up. I think I just need to commit and JUST bring a fly rod.

I was hoping to see you in a Custom Gheenoe Lo Tide 25 next but that was one heck of a day on a SUP and on fly. WOW!
So sick ive been trying to fly fish more out of my kayak I love the fly videos
Love that SUP. Is that the 12' or the 14'?
This is badass i live in Sebastian and seeing as your only 20 minutes away and catching all these fish while i cant even catch a snook at the inlet😂
Nice have you run your BOTE over anything like oyster beds got it Scratched or anything like that? I'm looking at there inflatables due to storage space for me and portability for me .
Fantastic! Thanks, I am just about to purchase one of the BOTEs as well, that is awesome fishing and the reds look like fun, we dont get them in Australia.
Justin great video, with the new boat. A lot of fish action. 👍🏻
Might be my fave vid of yours yet. Brilliant sight fishing on fly man.
love the flyfishing content, my favorite way toget nice fish, try to go peacock fishing with the fly next.
At first I wanted to upgrade from my HD to a Rackam, aint no way now all I want to do is get rid of this HD 6 months and its falling apart about to be leaking.

Sweet vid !! 🤙🏼 makes me want to get into fly fishing
If you get into Flyfishing it's a Rush .

Once ya pick up a Flyrod ya almost never wanna use a regular rod n reel lol.
It's a Rush like no other goodluck to ya .
Love your videos. So cool to be able to see the fish eat in the water on camera!
Thank you for watching!!
What are your thoughts on anchor vs stick it pole.
One of my favorite vids of yours love the new bote and fly fishing. Epic
Thank you!!
Sick video man! Keep it up!
Man you make fly fishing look easy. I wish the fish chased flies like that here in Charleston
Congrats Justin!!
Very cool board and video!
Dayum, son ... handling that 8-weight like a boss!
Love the new setup bro!
YES DUDE good for you!!
Badass dude. You're living the dream!
Awesome video! Nice fly placement
The fly fishing vids are sickkkk
Great catching those on flies must be a blast!
Do you mind sharing is your paddle board inflatable? Looking to buy the exact same if I can

Hi Dave, thanks so much for the comment and the kind words!
Nice boat🎣
This will be sick for the mangrove areas a little south of us
Beautiful boat awesome video congrats I'm sorry to hear you lost a rod the other day with Lawson which was another awesome video
Thanks for watching😎
Nice, as it should be, fish jumping and drag burning 🔥
Beast mode
LOL - I'm not sure I'd be wading off of the SUP with a gator in the water and a Bull Redfish in my hands.
It was either that or let the redfish pull me closer to the gator.
Setup is on point, liked the fly action 🤙🏻
Thanks for watching!
Great footage, love the fly videos my dude.
Great video, one of your best yet!
Best fishing channel out there
Keep grinding
amazing vid Just fishing haven nice bote
What fly reel are you using
I currently have a Duck inflatable kayak and trying to invest in something like yours . Inflatable SUP since you already own this what's your experience with it Saltwater I've had comments folks tell me that I have to worry about oyster beds. Any experience with this thing?
In your choice of this Boat /SUP ?
TIA
Great sight fishing footage!
Nice video bro straight killed it with a fly rod
Me: I wanted a boat so I did not have to wade
Also me: (gets in water to fish)😂
man I envy you!! I'm I freshwater stream fly fisherman. I'm really wanting to get more into salt water as well. I'm currently looking at a bote Rackham areo it's inflatable. I think it's would do fine however I would also like to take it in Rocky Rivers as well because that's all I have back home. do you think that would be fine?
I’ve heard bad things about the inflatable Bote paddle boards but I have never owned one so I’m not positive. Thank you for your comment.
And i thought for sure Lawson would be getting a gheenoe before you got a bote' lol Sweet setup!
How shallow does it draft (basically length of bottom fin)? I fly fish from my inflatable paddleboard on the west coast of Florida and I'm thinking of upgrading to something similar. It get's sketchy hooking into big sharks on the inflatable too...
😢 I was wanting that exact combo of paddle board and everything because I don’t see a lot of people with it and don’t wanna copy them but.....
Justin what fly reel is that?
Sick video man🤟🏼
Man this thing is so sick this is exactly what I’m going for. What part of Florida are you in?
Epic day!
i need more of this!
Maybe you already have, but check out @ThresherFishing he modified his sup, pretty cool, similar fishing in Texas. Also, for those of us that don't fly fish, maybe do this skinny water with ultra light spinning gear? Keep up the great content
Exelente video muy buenas capturas justin muy bonito tu bote saludos desde villahermosa tabasco mexico
In case I missed it, what size yeti you running/recommend? 🤘🏽
Your best ever! Sick Board too!
Such an awesome video. Keep in mind while fishing that area, ksc and ccafs are no drone zones and you could get into some trouble if you’re not careful. Great fishing!
sick video dude! fellow paddle board fisherman here! check out some redfish in the grass videos from up here in Charleston!
Top tier vid, keep it up🤙🏻
Damn badass video brother
Thank you!
