Wow! Great job keeping it together despite the all the crap hitting the fan. Glad everyone was ok. Vids like this are very helpful to me since I'm new to yak fishing.
I winced when you went over then lined the kayak up sideways to the next wave, so it would be thrown nicely right at your face. Ouch. You only do that once!
Thanks for posting this vid, as it will teach so many people not to play with waves like this. the kayak is way to small for this kind of waves. Hitting waves always with paddling not stopping. Glad you guys made safe :)
Never ever stay between your kayak and the beach, always get on the ocean side. Always wear your life west. Secure those hooks and put some foam around your rods, so they will float. Attach everything to the kayak. You were doing pretty good, just need a new kayak and learn basic safety tricks. If you roll over, never try to flip the kayak back in the surf. First of all, your kayak should be on the shore side and you on the ocean side, then just tow kayak to the shore at 90 degree to the waves, flip it back in the calmer water, then hold either bow or stern and once your hit the sand, spin kayak around and drag it to the shore. now go and recover your gear. Remember, your well being in #1, then 2 nd the most important task it to get kayak to the beach, this prevents injuries of other people around, the last task is to recover your gear. Good luck.
When you do end up swimming, IMMEDIATELY get your body between the wave and Kayak, the kayak can then not slam into you and you can control it by holding (Tie a piece of parrachord onto the nose tip loop) the nose with one hand as a wave crash by. Don't ever paddle into the ocean with your rods up like that, tie shit down man!
My advice for newbies would be - Don't ever stop paddling momentum is your friend and with out it your a sitting duck. - Always stay square to the wave on your way out this is just as important as momentum, as soon as your even the slightest angle to a decent wave it's going to tip you (a rudder can help with this) - If there's some decent swell with numerous sets coming in maybe look at going somewhere else, I've loaded all my gear onto the yak before dragged it down to the water only to think bugger this and pack it back into vehicle to go somewhere else. - Don't cheap out on the yak, If your serious about yak fishing buy a decent one, They have compartments and things for your rods and all your tackle, everything is nice and organized so you don't lose anything. I have had f ups just like most yak fisherman, You learn through experience 👍👍
ok big offshore kayak noob here. if your gear (reels) get splashed by sea water is it a good idea to continue the fishing trip or will the salt fuck them up quick while off shore (I have the same spin fisher reel). now lets say I capsize like u did what is the best coarse of action to avoid the death of your reel
I feel your pain. Nothing worse than getting tipped over in a kayak by a big wave then trying to salvage your stuff while the next waves bowl you over.
Yep, that went very wrong indeed... it was very dangerous to stay in front of your boat with the waves coming in when you capsize! You could of broken your neck, I just learned to go under and let boat go and retrieve it further, watching this video.
Thats a bummer mate, try leashing everything down that way you shouldn't lose too much, momentum forward is your friend always keep enough so you can punch through that white water, thanks for sharing and hope you have better luck next time!
WOW, brings back memories of my first season off shore kayak fishing in south Florida. Unfortunately, you have to pay your do's, getting humbled trying to pass the breakers, also landing on the beach, and the old losing expensive gear not having them leashed up, also no cheapo Walmart brand kayaks, get yourself a Hobie Revo 13 or the Hobie Ouback. Hope you pass your initiation to BTB KAYAK FISHING, it's the only way to fish. On my fifth year Kayak fishing in south Florida.
That looked a nightmare...I know with the surf you just have to paddle full on straight through it until your clear...with my Kayak ultra 4.7 I have a rod shoot and I can keep everything tucked away nicely just incase it does turn...maybe worth looking at 1 of those kayaks...a bit more expensive but you get what you pay for.
I can hear the fear in your breathing. The ocean isn't a safe playground for us. It's a majestic beast. Learn to love and respect it. Glad you all got out okay.
Yeah bud, that was a bummer! I've never wiped out on entry, but got drilled a few times on exit. You definitely need to be able to paddle faster and never, never, NEVER, get in front of a loose kayak!!! That thing will take your head off!!!!
Olá! Em um momento eu pensei que você iria passar por um grande aperto para subir no caiaque. Aqui no Brasil há muitas praias com ondas como essa e eu não ouso empalar-los. Seu caiaque não está pronto para esta aventura! Amarrar todos os seus equipamentos, nunca se punha suas varas de pesca na frente de você ainda mais com o gancho. Já se perguntou se estes hookfish agarra-lo, o aperto que iria passar? Desejo-lhe sorte nos próximos pesca !!!
Where abouts did yous launch? Should've powered through those waves and lean back a little and don't ever stop and make sure your kayak is direct to the wave
Definitely power through, so you can get to the next one before it swells and crashes. Did you notice how easy it was at the top of a swell, as opposed to going through it as it crashed? Also, put a thin line on all your gear, so you don't lose anything. It's ok if it falls out of the boat, but at least you won't lose anything. Glad you made it out ok and no one was hurt. Thanks for taking the trouble to make a video!
@@LoletaEric Right, better to just strap them down along the kayak, or instead of using a "thin line" use a paddle leash. They aren't expensive. A thin line would be no good, too dangerous.
@@LoletaEric I personally don't use them for my fishing rods. I strap my rods down along the side. Just a better option than a line as some leashes are pretty short and elastic so there isn't much room to get tangled. Kayak fishing 13 years, sea kayaking 10 years and I've been a sea kayak instructor for 4 years.
wow that was epic failed. looks like you guys were just sitting there waiting for the swell to past. Granted it did look bad but you need to power through them. and never get behind a kayak when a wave is roaring in. I've seen people getting hit and suffer broken bones. hopefully all you guys were ok.
@@dalethebelldiver7740 Simple. Water is malleable, a kayak is not. Wave hits you while you're touching the kayak that 6" gap between you isn't going to damage you. Wave hits the kayak mass and accelerates it into your body parts that's 150lbs of kayak and gear + water pressure being held behind a rigid kayak smacking into you. Plenty of energy to break bones. Adding more weight to the kayak isn't going to help. As you don't have the buoyancy to play with as kayak capacity limits are low already. Just makes you more likely to sink it.
your gear has to be all secured down when going thru the surf. Also you are to paddle hard thru the surf when it comes in not let it ride you other wise for sure your going for a swim. BTW, that kayak was a kiddie kayak and I hope you were wearing your pfd. Never go out without in on an keep it on 100% of the time. Cheers
Well I’m an old time canoeist I seriously would not try that condition in those tubs. At least in a sit in kayak with spray deck you can use the paddle to slap support
you need to get at least a 12ft kayak longer paddle and a seat...save your blue kayak for a small lake...doesn't look like it tours well in open water...
En español no merecía fallar por el contrario muy valiente y admiro, recomendaciones pon en tu kayak all que este seguro de volcarse en y remar duro sin asco
I was gonna say its a bit small. I own a 16 footer and still get pushed around and I'm in florida where the surf is no where near as big. I cant imagin being on your kayak in surf like that
Jgn ikot sgt tuan kalau ombak besar jgn diredah...laut ni bahaye kuat sgt manggilnye....ambe dh serik dah....ambe org kelaut...laut ni kuat panggil...tk puas sokmo....

that looks like a child's kayak made for a lake. surprised you didn't get a hook to the face with your poles dangling in front of you.
Lmao yes thats not a sea going that 🤣😂
At least it’s not an intex explorer
Yea I was shocked he even attempted that!
Love how when his mate flips he’s laughing 😂 than his flip is even more of an epic failure 🤣
instablaster
Wow! Great job keeping it together despite the all the crap hitting the fan. Glad everyone was ok. Vids like this are very helpful to me since I'm new to yak fishing.
Great recovery Bro. you remained calm . you did way better than most that get in that situation. and saved the bait? You're the real MVP bro
I winced when you went over then lined the kayak up sideways to the next wave, so it would be thrown nicely right at your face. Ouch. You only do that once!
A perfect video of 'What Not To Do'
Thanks for posting this vid, as it will teach so many people not to play with waves like this. the kayak is way to small for this kind of waves. Hitting waves always with paddling not stopping. Glad you guys made safe :)
Well that’s what you get when you spend $150 on a kids kayak
exactly
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😄 haha

Don't ever paddle into the ocean with your rods up like that, tie shit down man!
The other guys just swam back to shore they are allgood
My advice for newbies would be
- Don't ever stop paddling momentum is your friend and with out it your a sitting duck.
- Always stay square to the wave on your way out this is just as important as momentum, as soon as your even the slightest angle to a decent wave it's going to tip you (a rudder can help with this)
- If there's some decent swell with numerous sets coming in maybe look at going somewhere else, I've loaded all my gear onto the yak before dragged it down to the water only to think bugger this and pack it back into vehicle to go somewhere else.

I have had f ups just like most yak fisherman, You learn through experience 👍👍
You poor sod. You need a sea fairing kayak. Hope you got all you gear back
Thanks for the video. I'm considering this as a very valuable lesson for everyone. Stay safe and tight lines everyone.
That look scary but exciting. Glad you and all the others were ok.
i hope you got most of your stuff back, i feel bad for ya! good job keeping alive m8
Good job recovering your stuff man. Looked like some proper surf you all were trying to get through.
This is good to show that kayaking is not always about smooth sailing, but rough and tumble ones as well.👍
The kayak should be ok...you just can't stop paddling when the surf is like that until your clear...or better still...turn around 👍😂
Thk for the video. Planning to get one, still doing the rnd what issue i will run into. Thk again
Good on you for posting this online for us newbies to learn not what to do!

Through all of that you managed to keep your bait 🤣
terrible kayak

Wilsoooonnnn!!!!
Are Crap...
Hi Jayden, just come across this while browsing. Funny how it glassed out after you fell out. Great recovery!
Thanks for posting this video. Very educational!
Yep, that went very wrong indeed... it was very dangerous to stay in front of your boat with the waves coming in when you capsize! You could of broken your neck, I just learned to go under and let boat go and retrieve it further, watching this video.
Where abouts in taranaki is this. Pretty grunty surf lol how did u get on coming back in

that looks scary man i want a kayak so bad i know what not to do thanks!
What type of kayak is it
Ya bro I've had my fair share of wipe outs but you gotta paddle way harder to get thru it better Good Luck !!
Where was this?
A mans got to know his limitations. Good example of what not to do. Good recovery though.
I can hear the fear in your breathing. The ocean isn't a safe playground for us. It's a majestic beast. Learn to love and respect it. Glad you all got out okay.
Nice vid, really shows the action out there 😳
Im sorry but i really couldnt stop laughing since this happened to us once. Three of us all ended up swimming near murewai
At least you were thoughtful enough to adjust the go pro to film your own near drowning for our entertainment
Yeah bud, that was a bummer! I've never wiped out on entry, but got drilled a few times on exit. You definitely need to be able to paddle faster and never, never, NEVER, get in front of a loose kayak!!! That thing will take your head off!!!!
How did you not lose your rods?
Baaaa, hahahahaha... I've done the same thing !!
But really, a flat-bottomed kayak?
Son, there's an app for that...
That rinky-dink kayak should NEVER have been out there! You were waaaaay beyond your skill set & getting swamped was claerly inevitable!
Viking profish reload is the best bro ....👌👌
This looks about as much fun as a root canal.

"Put a thin line on all your gear" - this is how you will get wrapped up and possibly die.
@@LoletaEric Right, better to just strap them down along the kayak, or instead of using a "thin line" use a paddle leash. They aren't expensive. A thin line would be no good, too dangerous.
Paddle leashes are dangerous too. I have several of them and haven't used one in many years. I've been kayak fishing 21 years - how about you?

3:15 is when he knew he fucked up
is that a bar?
3:15 I was like "Holy Crap!"

Joseph Saeteurn explain that please. How did someone break a bone in a kayak?
Would it help if I was to add a bottom keel and weights in it?

Nothing tied on or down? Or rods attached to leashes? Gotta tie your stuff down man! Glad you weren't hurt or worse.
Should have taken some Barbie poles to go with that Barbie boat. Looks like he is just taking the same wave break over and over again
U loose expensive gear?
ouch that,s what happens when you buy a 10 foot kayak not deigned for fishing lol i have a new one i have not tried yet wish me luck lol
Edgunsuk So how did it go?
Good luck
Are you OK?
I think need long kayak...
Y'all hella coo coo!
He would have made it if he went to the left of the wave.
Seems like a good idea
Crazy shit bro that's extremely fishing what's up whit the other guys good Luke for the future
Never stay behind your yak with an incoming wave, easy way to get knocked out
Ouch, sooner or later it happens to all of us.
So true.
It is good to show other kayaking, and it is not the prize of the kayak, it's the condition and how you use the kayak.
Well I’m an old time canoeist I seriously would not try that condition in those tubs. At least in a sit in kayak with spray deck you can use the paddle to slap support
3:26 fishing rod sticking out of water holy shit i cant stop laughing
Rod decided to go fishing by itself!
Very important tips for offshore fishing on small kayak bro don't for get the nappy lol
no way would I have rods in front of me, dont want one of those waves to release the line and send a hook flying at my face
Problem here is that isn't a kayak...it's a bottle cap lol.
OMG! That must have sucked!
The worst thing is not one of them could have made a successful rescue attempt if needed...
wow, such a kayak (which looks like some $100 kayak from Walmart or a dollar store:-) could battle this wind/wave condition on the water...🙂
thank you for sharing, interesting video
Like a bucket catching water
Moral of the story: You get what you pay for
you need to get at least a 12ft kayak longer paddle and a seat...save your blue kayak for a small lake...doesn't look like it tours well in open water...
Next time everything should be leashed. I learned that the same way
Get the Jackson kraken it's made for this
Mother nature saying RESPECT my authority....lol
At what point do u think turn around and go home 😂😂
En español no merecía fallar por el contrario muy valiente y admiro, recomendaciones pon en tu kayak all que este seguro de volcarse en y remar duro sin asco
The waves looked calmer on the right side, you should have moved there.
And definitely the wrong kayak for conditions
Yea the kayak isnt made for the surf or for fishing really so i learnt from that haha
I was gonna say its a bit small. I own a 16 footer and still get pushed around and I'm in florida where the surf is no where near as big. I cant imagin being on your kayak in surf like that
i love ocean kayak fishing,but this is not worth the trouble, find a better more calm area to launch kayak.good try.
Hahahhahah and damn I'm scared
Jgn ikot sgt tuan kalau ombak besar jgn diredah...laut ni bahaye kuat sgt manggilnye....ambe dh serik dah....ambe org kelaut...laut ni kuat panggil...tk puas sokmo....
i definitely would have got on other side of kayak . could have been fatal
Rip to the rods
This was painful to watch. This guy made even the most common sense mistakes
bad launch spot. good lesson though
That'll humble you.
Thank God you all survived. Great video on how to get killed!!
Tom Hanks had a better first run
I guess this is everything I should not do..
Wrong Kayak for the conditions!
think it be better tie down the fishing rods to the kayak then risk loosing them or snapping the rod holder off lol
