- Be sure to watch through to the end for a preview of Parts 2 & 3 - you don't want to miss those!
Part 1 - "The Calm Before the Storm"
I went on a four day kayak fishing and camping trip for Independence Day 2013. In Part 1, come along for the ride as I paddle out over 3 miles offshore to the oil rigs in front of Corpus Christi, TX. On the first day we fished for red snapper and trolled for some bigger game. That night I enjoyed red snapper tacos on the beach at my campsite - can't beat that!

Part 2 should air before Monday! Sorry for the delay! Stay tuned...
Sometimes the best video is the forgotten start! Congrats on the success so far!
This was so long ago, haha. Thanks Mattie G!
Part 2 should air at the end of next week... Part 3 will air around the end of the month! Stay tuned...
Clarisse! Of course I remember you. I'm glad you liked it, Part 2 from this trip should air by the end of the week so check it out, and I'll come back to Tilted Kilt soon for more Bear Fight shots...
Gotta love Red Snapper fishing. Those Bastards fight hard. Great vids!
Hey Azmi. Nope I was using two Penn 309s on this trip. I mainly use those for targetting big fish and sharks from the kayak, and I have a Cabelas Salt Striker spinning reel that I use for casting to smaller fish, such as spanish mackerel boiling on the surface.
Hadn’t seen this video from you yet just goes to show why you’re the best show on TH-cam
I pedal a Hobie Outback now. All the videos before this one I was in a Perception Sport Pescador 12'. That is a GREAT starter boat if you want to stay around the $500 range. A new Outback will run you closer to $1,850 but believe me - it is SO worth it.
A flathead? I caught a 6 foot shark from it... I think that trumps any catfish brotha. Part 3 from this series is up on my page and you can see the shark.
Basically you just learn from others where to launch from, but you can see them from shore. These are the Mayan Princess rigs, straight out from Mile Marker 80 in Port Aransas. The first one is a little over 3 miles out, the furthest one I hit was about 4 miles out. There's a big cluster of them out there. Feel free to hit me up on Facebook and Twitter with more questions bro! Happy to help!
Yes sir, count me in brah! I talk to Rex a lot and he says it's a blast. Need to get down there and fish with both you crazy guys, haha. You gonna be at the Bluewater Classic?
Always nice to watch kayak fishing videos specially at the rigs. Great video, hopefully I'll convince my boddies to do it one day.
Sometimes. Depends on what they want that day. A lot of times I'll run one weighted with a skirt, and one "naked". If one starts working, switch to two of those. I use an inline worm weight, usually 1/2 oz.
Well I'm always trolling a ribbonfish on one rig and an artificial on the other. My favorite lure to troll for kings, and what I caught that jack on, is the Rapala X-Rap Jointed Shad in chrome/black. I vary the distance behind me based on what they want. Farther = deeper. I also do one further than the other to prevent tangles.
Thanks for the kind words! I have a video planned to walk through my rig as well as some tips and tricks for how I get footage out on the water. Also, I have tons of friends who paddle out to the rigs. Just don't go alone and get multiple opinions on the forecast. There are some that are only 2 miles off shore, not a bad paddle at all. I think I'll be back for Labor Day if you want to join me bud! Hit me up on FB or Twitter.
Past two years been heading down to PINS for SHARKATHON. Wish the conditions where like this.
Yeah man the audio issues arise because the GoPro's audio when inside the waterproof case SUCKS. I'm trying to work on it. I appreciate the feedback, always.
As for trolling I basically try different things until one works. I'll usually put a 1/2 oz inline worm weight and a pink or chartreuse skirt on one ribbonfish, and run another naked. I'll put the weighted one 50 yards back and the non-weighted half that. When one works, double up on that rig. Or sometimes I run a lure on one side.
This is really awesome and epic channel! This is something I want to do when I get older for sure.
I kept every snapper that was legal - 3 in all. The ones I tossed back were just under 15 inches (legal limit). No way to fit a livewell that will keep snapper alive on a kayak, but I put them on ice.
Yeah man, I agree. I guess since it was my first offshore trip, I was just excited and not being very mindful. When I was reviewing the footage I noticed that.
Love the sneak peak drama. lol
Dude that was a sweet video. Look forward to 2 and 3.
Which Monday is that?lol Eagerly awaiting pt. 2 & 3 please...your vids are awesome ! Nice song choice on this one as well. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks man. Yeah I'm aware of the sound issues. The problem is the GoPro's audio is horrible when it's in the waterproof case. I can't boost the volume of me talking any more. Am working on some solutions going forward.
Awesome vid. I went to school at A&M in corpus and bought my yak to fish the bay. I was a little too nervous about changing conditions to try to get out to the rigs without a motor or the paddle drive. The wind can be pretty tough sometimes. I would love to see a video of how you set up your yak to film and fish. keep up the good work!
great yak vid.... one of my fav's....
Can't wait to catch a jack on my yak ! Well done!
Thanks Ty! Means a lot coming from the BTB man himself!
What!
So cool! I've been deep sea fishing 4 or 5 times and all I catch are red snappers, mangrove snappers and remoras. I would love to catch a mahi or a Marlin
It can be tough to find fish out there... it's a big ocean!
Good job on the production manG! I gotta get ya on the TI with me this summer!! Fun Times Ahead Broham...
No, and you're right. Just excited my first time at the rig, and when I watched the footage I realized I had done that. That can definitely injure them. Normally I'm really good about it, but just got caught up in the moment.
awesome dude ive just started Kayak fishing in hervey bay queensland australia can't wait to put some vids up of our adventures around the reefs and fair way boy well done mate some nice fish and you really enjoy it which is the most important think
You can watch it on your PC. TH-cam restricted it 6 weeks after I posted it. Very frustrating. It's only restricted on mobile, though.
Great video, as always. But bring a net next time lol. Thx for sharing
love the set-up you got there, wish i could do the same up here but it's way too cold :P for those nice fish
Good ear, Vincent! It is a mashup of "Wake Me Up" by Avicii that I found on Sound Cloud.
Are they? I could've caught them all day but didn't bother... good to know.
Well done....those Mayan Princess Rigs are somethin else
Lovely video, the sound quality could be worked on but i'm subbed!!
When you say about the trolling depth, can you give us a rough distance, length of line and what depth for your deeper and shallow?
Awesome videos man! Keep it up!
I just watched your video!! Told you I would :) very very impressed and amazed by all that you do! Hope you remember me. It Kilt girl Clarisse! I'm a fan of yours now :)
Hey man! Great vids. If you keep the fish you catch where do you store them?
I either have a soft cooler on the bow of my kayak or down inside the hull of my kayak. There are hatches on the boat in the front, middle, and back. The one in the front is big enough to fit fish through.
I love watching your videos. I might get a yak. What happens when you get blood in the boat, does it drain out and become a shark attractant?
+MyIdeas it does drain out but I don't notice more shark activity. I'm sure it attracts them sometimes. I've been around a lot of sharks in the kayak and never felt threatened or in danger. They just come check ya out and then leave when they realize you aren't food.
You are awesome.
+MyIdeas haha thanks!
A friend created the YakFish TV animated logo for me. He did it in Adobe AfterEffects.
You should be gettin paid by Cabelas to rep em like you your studly self does.
I love these by the way. Very entertaining. You rock
You did good buddy , big fan of the rigs luv them Reds !!!!!
Also, just FYI, I plan on releasing two "how-to" videos in the coming months: How To: Film Your Kayak Fishing Adventures and How To: Offshore Kayak Fishing 101. The latter will show how I rig my lines, how I catch bait, how I launch and reenter the surf, etc. Stay tuned brotha.
Hey bro ! Nice vid. Anyway, may i know what reel you're using there ? Is it the Penn Seaboy 190 ?
Hi there! I'm Tim from San Antonio. I like your trip very much and I want to go with you some day.I have a Outback same like you but never been fishing out to the rig like your.What time is best for red snapper in port aransas?
thank
Haha I'm working on that! Thanks doll :)
do you always bend the fishes jaw down with the gripper?
it looks like you can break it. not haten just askin.
TH-cam sucks, to be honest. Nothing but issues. When they released the 144p option it ruined one of my videos that I had to delete and repost, losing thousands of views.
Great channel. Awesome videos!
Brahim Berrada thanks!
Hey I absolutely love your videos and I was wondering what you have bait wise
Thanks man! In this video I was using both a Rapala X-Rap Jointed Shad in chrome/black and fresh dead ribbonfish on a stinger rig (J hook thru the nose, two treble stingers along its back).
You should list part 1 first, then part 2, then part 3, so they come up in sequence.
looks like the hobie mirage. I own the same. If that's a outback its tiny
How far behind are you trolling those lures? and what kind of lures are they?
Try using twixtor slow motion software. I think it would look pretty good.
Blake, good to ask questions if you're just beginning.
Also check out Yakangler forums. Where ya live? Fishing saltwater or fresh?
Not rushing you or anything but when will part 2 be out ?
I'm in Texas, so this is all in the gulf.
Geez man maybe I need to think about a trip to Texas one of these days :)
Great video! What kind of bait and setup where you using to catch those snapper?
+killz5250 just a simple bottom rig with a 3-oz weight and some squid.
Hey dude can you make a video on how to unhook snappers and bigger fish than 4 in
Parabens irmão. Assisti um vídeo e já fiquei seu fã.....Também pesco com caiaque aqui no Brasil.
Awesome Video!
Part 2 is up bud! Go check it out.
i saw your offshore fishing gone wrong and realised this guy is awesome im 12 and kayak and rowing is my way in the sea
+makeyou sayhi awesome!
+Robert Field OMG ive never been responded to i flipped out when i saw this thanks
It's a remix of Wake Me Up by Avicii that I found on SoundCloud
hi, what leader is good for king mackerel? thanks
im looking into buying a SOT fishing kayak any tips on what to buy?
Did you mix the song yourself or is there a vid on that. Thnx and nice vid.
+Inlet Reg no I got the song off Soundcloud. Thanks!
Great video! Looks like fun
What kayak do you use in this video?
What Kind of reel did you catch the jack on?
what kind of bait did you use??????
What is the fish lip gripper your using?
Nice vid! What is the song you used. It sounds like a mashup?
Thank you!
What program u use for ur intro?
What kayak do you use?
Really good video bud.
Was that a penn 309m reel?
what kind of kayak is that?
Hey man know any good spots for reds for kayaks in Galveston ?? Inshore thoe
Bro I was just there try kayaking in Crystal beach right even you get off the ferry from Galveston to Crystal fresh as soon as you exit make it right great spot for red and shark
My stepdad considers them one of the best eats in Florida. I caught one a few offshore trips ago and the one thing I noticed is that the skin smells when you cut if off. >__
is that a penn seaboy 85?
It's a Penn m309 reel.
what brand and pound test was that wire
ANSWER ASAP: I'm heading fishing in a week, what fishing rod is that? 3:38
that would be a fish, wrong timestamp?
That's the Ugly Stik Tiger rod, really cheap budget rod but it's rock solid.
There are many things to consider before you choose a yak brother. Hit me up on Facebook or Twitter and I'd be happy to help.
would u rather the outback or pro angler?
+BAMAROLLTIDE12 I prefer the Outback but evreybody's different, the PA is a great boat also
Its ok to drop the level of the music way down to match the GoPro audio. They call it a music bed b/c its in the background like wallpaper, not the featured element. Or my preference: no tunes at all. The sound of the location is where its at.
maaan this is why I need a new hobby
Do you use a weight?
JUST FLIP THE KAYAK AGAING AND KEEP FISHING HOPEFULLY THE COOLER WAS CLOSE AND U DIDNT LOOSE ANY FISH.........THAT HAPPEND TO ME ONCE I LEARN MY LESSON...... ALWAYS KEEP YOUR COOLER CLOSE ....FLIPPING THE KAYAK IS THE EASY PART.
red snappers are huge. i went deep sea fishing and caught huge snappers
+Jordan Lopez yeah, I just caught babies on this trip but they get much bigger
good shit, but its a float, Kayaks have holes in em , makes it more real... and way more complcated, good float fishing though..
do you still have you kayak
What reel were you using?
+Pierce Schwartz that's a Penn m309. Great budget offshore reel, $60. Things are bulletproof.

What's a good type of bait to u use in the ocean
Frank Levy shrimp or squid
Shrimp crabs green backs green backs and threadfins are the best imo depends what you're going for
Why this video in not available??
I believe because of the music I used, it is blocked in some countries. My newer videos should not be blocked.
Love your work. Greeting from very far away from Texas
Fish grips should be parallel to the fishes body at all times. The way you are holding the grips puts a lot of stain on the jaw of the fish.
