After two skunk days where one day I caught one small Jack, one Mullet and one Pilchard, and the next day I got one small Jack, I needed a day of catching. With the winds finally dropping a bit, I headed out to the reef with a block of chum where I knew there would be some fish around willing to bend a rod. Boy was I right. A ton of rod bending action until I didn't want to fish anymore.

Man, that yellow jack. Holy mols
Great video Steve learn a lot and enjoy watching your videos thank you
Suuuuuper geooorgeous day in the Florida Keys!! Now don’t exaggerate Steve!! Great video.
This is the First fishing video I have ever enjoyed watching!! Your so knowledgeable and personable! I’d sure enjoy watching many more! Looks like you really enjoy what you do!!
I respect & admire the comfort you exhibit piloting your minimalist fishing craft. What you got there I can't afford but EVEN if I could afford those flashy fiberglass overpowered outboard boats sitting in most marinas, I would not want them. Your kind of boating I aspire to, or at least dream of.
Look like fun! One day... 😎
Steve, thanks for sharing all your tips, really appreciated. Also, congrats on not getting skunked 3 days in a row!!! Fun watch for sure....
I find this channel relaxing and entertaining. The perfect combo. 👌
Amazingly beautiful day for fishing! You make it look good too! lol
You make it so fun to watch. I was just down there catching cudas in the flats. Don’t have the gear to do what you’re doing but I am inspired and ask that u keep it up! Love it!
“I could taste the stink!” Lol
I am curious...is cuda stink similiar to needlefish stink? If so then I understand the disgust.
Great fishing, learn a lot every time I watch your channel, thanks mate!
I love those days with a lot of variety 👍🐟
My goal is to come to the Keys one day. I can’t wait.
Gutter60 I’ve been twice, can’t wait for trip no. 3! Plan a private charter also, it’s worth the extra money.
Great sharks what beauty's and great effort
Yo steve beautiful day over there I can happily say the same for palm beach
Nice skills on the light set up bro. and from a yak at that. finesse was the winner that day.
Awesome trip out Steve! I'm still trying to figure out why there's pipes out in the middle of the ocean? 😂 🛶 🎣
You must be crazy out there with a kayak fishing . You needed a bigger boat. You know , you not always that lucky with those shark.
Holy Chit - you caught some monsters today - the $K video was Excellent to watch - gonna order again - hope it arrives this time
That water... 😎👍
I can't believe you threw back that big mutton great vid
Good video,it was so interesting seeing the wide assortment of beautiful fish species,the remora was so weird,
I really like the underwater footage.🐟
Thank you!
Shark steaks on the grill. Lemon salt and pepper a little butter
👍🌴💨
I caught a similar nurse shark(4’) around Shark Channel back in 2015! That’s some sweet hat action, too!
Good one Steve.
Beatifuuuuullllllll trolling video greeting from cancun mexico.!
Yellow jack catch n cook
Really great vid Steve! I enjoy hearing your strategy and equipment being used. Those were some HUGE nurses! I really like eating remora and chubs...very flavorful, compared to many of the fish I've tried down there...haven't tried them all though....but working on it! Tight lines 😎
BEAUTIFUL day
The single hook on the mullet plug is upside down. You will hook and hold fish better if the hook point is pointed up. Snag less weeds too.
man, i have watched like 5 KWKF vids today, all awesome
Awesome day! That yellow jack was a meal for four right there. And that second shark looked to be almost as long as your boat! If I had your day, it would be my best day of fishing EVER!!
Nice mutton Steve! 👍🏻
Awesome footage!
I enjoy this video very much, lots of fun catches, everytime i fish the keys bottom i get a least 1 nurse shark,i even did a catch a cook once lol awesome video bud!
No pain, no gain :)
That was scary watching you hold a knife in your hand with the rod under tension. Thank god the line did not break there and cause your hand with the knife to whip back at you.
not a smart move
Suction cup fish lol 😄 Ramura? Remura?
Hi Steve I love your vid‘s. I picked you up post Covid and it’s interesting to see this pre-Covid video. You didn’t take any dinner home on this one. I also noticed a lot of what sounded like large aircraft flying by. Different now i guess?
I've heard rumors of guys using remora to attach to larger fish to catch them. Idk if that's b.s. or not but still cool that you caught one.
I got the 1 thousandth like! Woohoo!
Stud yellow jack
whow great...
Where is these red marker? We go to Marathon every year and I have never seen these red marker
First time on your channel. What kind of kayak with an outrigger? Great channel!
How fast is your troll? It’s deceiving, It seems like your doing 55mph in a school zone.
Coordinates to that spot, do you know any ramps to launch a jet ski with easy access to the ocean side
6 days strait no sun here almost forgot what it looks like lol
20:02 that right there is the biggest fish I’ve ever seen anyone catch
Hugo Blinckmann Oh no man they get much bigger than that. That was just a nurse shark probably the least aggressive of all and just an avg one
That's a nice fish right there, check out this fish caught from a kayak on light tackle
th-cam.com/video/afmdTQE6w5s/w-d-xo.html
You should see more TH-cam
Try watching the giant grouper fishing videos. It's like catching a big brown large mouth bass weighing 500 pounds.
Nice! Where did you get your outrigger? I've been looking all over lol
Excellent!. what kayak?. motor setup?.. looks like the ticket!!
not trying to be negative just a question when we cut the line with the hook somewhere in its mouth as far as i, concerned those hooks dont rust away ??? wont that hinder the fish or if its a little deeper in it wont be able to eat??
Yes you are right. People pat themselfs on the back and say it will rust out. No it wont. It has been proven a million of times.
@ It really depends on the hook. If you buy hooks designed to rust, they will eventually rust. If you buy any of those expensive hooks that don't rust, it will take months if not years. However, if you fish it's inevitable to hook creatures you don't want, and if said creature could sever your fingers or even your hand, I say take the chance and let the fish go with the hook. Do that, or don't fish. Don't risk your bodily integrity for the sake of one animal. If you do it a lot, maybe consider something else.
Nice
Looks like a fun spot to spearfish. How deep is it there?
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
How do you not catch any grunts ???
Hey, Steve, how you doing Brother? Thanks for the stickers. I put it right on my my kayak and it looks great. Anyway, I have a question. I saw one of your videos when you lost one of your expensive rods. Have you done anything in case something like that was to happen or have you ever the kayak over to the point that you have to recover all your gear? Are you set up for that? Some of the other videos that I've seen of guy setting up their kayaks say just take cheap rods out. But then I'm thinking to myself then what's the purpose of me getting these fancy Rod that I like to use If I cannot use them wherever I go fishing.
Do you ever try for Bonefish or Permit?
I want to come fishing with you!!!!
I think you need a bigger boat lol.
Which of the keys you fish?
looks like you're off boca or is it kw??
Hey erbody how we doin today!! I get on my wife’s nerves because I say it with Steve on every video open.
Time for MGTOW bud or just a new woman not necessarily a wife ! 👍
What did you use for cut bait? Enjoy your videos.
A knife
If you just had audio you'd be in trouble ! All the grunting and saying how this thing is bending my rod and owww how this thing wore me out ! All you'd need is a 70's wacka wooow sound track ! 👍
What is the name of that buoy reef
Very nice Yellow Jack!
Great video is that a Diesel engine ?
a Volvo Penta!
I stopped watching The Hobbit just to watch Steve.
I wish they'd make more Hobbit and LOTR movies. Would you give a left kidney to be able to live in the Sunshine state fishing and lobstering? That's one hell of a great natural resource to have free access to enjoy and benefit from. Balmy sunshine, fish fries, great new buddies like Steve, and swaying palm trees await those whose home is on wheels.
Cuda are the best tasting fish in the Keys , I have eaten a thousand of them through the years there .
Definitely not the best bud.
I ate BBQ cuda on Bali about 10 years ago and found it to be the best fish I ever had. I didn't know they stank like ass though...
@@Worldofourown2024 All fish that stay still in the water have white meat , all pelagic fish that always move have dark smelly meat . Oil and Blood or clean white meat . Your choice .
@@BigDsGaming2022 That cuda I had on Bali 10 years ago was half white and half dark meat. The tail section was white and the main body containing the organ cavity was dark meat. They sold me the whole fish for $10 and cooked and prepared it, I ate the white part and told them to do whatever they wanted with the rest. This was a makeshift small business on an undeveloped white sand beach where it was just a BBQ grill using coconut shells as fuel, a small hut and picnic table with a cooler full of beer and things they were selling. It was very nice and cheap as well paying just $10 for a 10 pound fish, preparation, drinks, and condiments like limes. Delicious fish typically runs only a dollar a pound or $2 a kilo in many of the tropical countries like Indonesia, Thailand, and Philippines. Probably cheaper and more exotic than Florida and the Caribbean. It would be incredibly fun to go out with Steve in the Keys.
@@Worldofourown2024 The Keys are run down since the 70's but Steve will put you on the fish , try a Cuda under 5 pounds the only dark meat is the blood line you can cut out . You also can make ceviche out of Cuda , Steve can tell you about that since he lives there
#halfhatcam
You have to learn how to take those hooks out. That fish will stop eating for awhile and malnourished. Making them valuable to parasitic organisms.
can i get a hat to canada yet?
You haven't posted a new video in over a week, are you ok? If there's not a video by tomorrow I'm calling the police to do a welfare check on you
The elegant temperature presumably spell because bush jelly clip regarding a zealous cream. cheerful, stingy drill
