    I love how you went back to your more old style of editing no music just some raw footage, I feel like no music adds a certain feel of serenity, and almost peacefulness, I hope you keep this style, thanks for another awesome video

      Glad you like it, I think I do as well and I should be sticking to it. You're welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting!

      Trip Smith I agree so many ppl feel the need to add music and it's obnoxious.

    Florida springs are our hidden gems in my opinion. When all the tourist flock to the beach see head to the springs. Great video I'm getting out on my own kayak camping once every 2 months now thanks to you

    • @TripSmith
      @TripSmith  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree 100%. I have been to a handful of them but I'm going to start trying to visit more of them. Thanks for the comment Blake and I'm happy to hear you're doing some yak camping of your own man! Awesome!

    This totally made my friday! A new adventure with SailingandSuch...and in the the rain and all. I have a philosophy about rain when paddling..."It´s only water" and it keeps me dry and happy all day long. :-) Nice springs and glad you caught some crawfish! This is totally my favorite TH-cam-channel, no question...Thanks!

    • @TripSmith
      @TripSmith  8 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like your style. Short on macho bragging. Long on good fun enjoying natural beauty. Your videos show that anybody can enjoy trips like yours, if they just get out and do it, and have a good attitude.

    • @TripSmith
      @TripSmith  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Tom! I see no need for any bragging, just fun! You are exactly right, anyone can do them. Doesn't take anything or anyone special to do it. Thanks for watching and for the great comment ;)

    I went there as a child and again as a teen. I have driven by as an adult. We would take water melon and stick it in the water while we swam, tubed or jumped from a dive platform. By the time we ate a picnic lunch that water melon was cold. Great memories! Thanks for bringing that back with this great video.

    • @TripSmith
      @TripSmith  8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Never heard of kayak camping before watching your videos, but thanks to you I went with my sister and a gf a few weeks back on Holmes Creek. Now I am hooked!! I plan to explore all of Holmes Creek this year and find as many of its hidden springs as I can, and gonna try using my ISUP for camping as well as kayak, because I can go more places with it. Love your videos! Hoping to go to Rock a Dock this year but not sure yet

    Hey Trip it's Henry
    Awesome video! I can't believe how clear that water is! It's so cool! Craw fish are my favorite food and it looked so good. That camp site looked great too! Going kayak camping in a couple weeks should be good. Thanks a lot!

    • @TripSmith
      @TripSmith  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      What's up Henry!!!!! I know it, I love clear water, it's my favorite for sure.... They are some of my favorite things to eat as well. The campsite was pretty nice, would have been interesting if I would have had to rig up a tarp lol. Hope you enjoy your trip! Remember, if you're not having fun, you are doing it wrong!

Eventually though I'd like to get a little Toyota 4x4 truck though for taking on my adventures and I'm sure I'd do a video on it.... One day!

  • @scubaguy5455
    @scubaguy5455 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    You should check into St Vincent Island at Indian Pass! I have been wanting to explore and kayak camp that place for a few years now. It might require some "stealth camping", but you can actually get a permit to "hunt" which allows you to camp overnight. Look into it and give your opinion. Maybe an idea for your next adventure?

    • @TripSmith
      @TripSmith  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the suggestion. I've heard about that place down there and I've done some research on it earlier this summer. You're right about the "stealth camping" that is needed, which is what I'll be doing next week down around Grayton Beach if I can figure out somewhere to park my vehicle. I may just have to go for it down there. Comment appreciated!

    Awesome. I think I was in my 20's when I was last in water as clear as that. I was surprised not to see other people on the water. You better start using a checklist before you leave, LOL. Also, I can't hardly believe there aren't any gators there?

    • @TripSmith
      @TripSmith  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I appreciate that. It's certainly a beautiful place. One good thing about being a fire fighter is I'm off during the week when places are less crowded. I did see a few people but not very many. During the weekends it's a popular place. I know it! I actually did use my checklist but thought I forgot the clothes dry bag on the counter.... Got lucky.
      I don't know for sure there aren't any, I just haven't ever seen them or heard of them there. Out of sight out of mind???? lol
