  • I was amazed how well it worked! Not only can I stay in one place, I can launch it much easier than I originally thought! Two thumbs up for this kayak!

    Love the gps spotlock on my bass boat. Game changer . Spotlock is gps trolling motor able to hold you in one spot once you set it.

    Do not pick up the rod on the halibut to set the hook, let them take the bait and swallow it, give them line for longer than you want, just suggestion

  • @theseagull7020
    @theseagull7020 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love your videos and big fan here. On the Rode mic, does that keep your GoPro water proof? I want to get the Rode mic, but I’m seeing that one on the doors need to be removed for this to work. Any suggestions?
    FYI: I fished that area for about 10hrs on my hobie looking for halibut and no luck.

    Just found your channel today, enjoying your videos. I use the TFO DR9 Downrigger-Mooching Rod while kayak fishing the West Coast of BC inshore waters. I like the sensitive carbon fibre tip and S glass back. I can either mooch or troll and can bend under pressure.

  • @jamestownvirginia8463
    @jamestownvirginia8463 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I actually moved my transducer to avoid hitting rocks on landing, although I strictly use the kayak in fresh and brackish waters. Good job, spot lock is great but a bit noisy in fresh water. Great video, educational for me! It's a great little kayak.

    Awesome video Adam, the tutorial was very to the point, espeacially for those wanting to launch from the beach for the first time. I really wish you would've landed that monster. Again everytime you eat the fish wanna eat lol. Great job and stay safe out there. Aloha from Kansas

    You have proven you can catch ling, salmon and halibut. How about making 2021 the year of the “ghost”? Time to catch the elusive WSB - White Sea bass! Know you can do it!
