Here's a joke, man You should quit fishing and become a full time youtuber lol In all seriousness you did great man . No bull just solid content straight to the point and an awesome outro
Hard to believe in conditions like this because when the water is dirty the fish move way offshore into cleaner waters. The only good thing about the high winds from the south is they push the bait closer to shore. Like I said in the video you got lucky and happened to be in the right spot. It happens but for most of us, we don't fish these conditions.
@@texasbeachbum Agreed I can usually find some fish but it take way more time with those conditions. I do believe it was right place a the the right time moment. It's a 6.5hr drive for me and I have turn in time off 1 month in advance so I just have to fish whatever the conditions are. I tend to get a lot of that chocolate milk water to fish in. LOL
Brilliant, honest review. It's a great idea but in real world conditions looks like it's gonna be tricky to set up. Most of my beach fishing is done when there's a decent sea pushing in so by the look of it this boat wouldn't cope with that. Plus, that money gets you a really top end surf rod.
Sir, just a sidenote. You moved the center of gravity way too high with that camera on top. 1). Take the camera off. 2) Put about 150 to 250 grams of weight under the boat, UNDER the waterline CENTERED. Fix the weight with Apoxy. 3) Put that bait in the slot bay, not outside. The drag is too much and the waves making the bait rock 'n rolling which will be transferred to the boat boat. Bin there, done exactly that.
I'll give you 300 for it right now... Glad you came forward this should help people that are on the fence about getting one. Save the money and get a drone if your going to try and go that distance. Just make your the rest of your equipment is up to par
I fly a drone all the time in Port A it gets set at a certain height. At one point in time I use to use a drone to drop baits. Corpus is filled with airports because of Navy but it will only let you go in some areas only 100 feet. PINS is a no fly zone
Why are people saying “I nearly bought this but because of the video I’m not” 😂 so the statement from the company that you don’t wanna use it in 3ft surf didn’t stop you? 😅 are blokes seriously this dense? 😮
Your spot on ,it doesn't perform if it's rough water and waves over 2 feet it's ok in the USA it's $800 I'm from Australia I paid $1500 waste of money 💰 for suf,very disappointing also weed stops the performance, returning home doesn't work, most of the time it's better to manually bring the RC BOAT back into shore great video big luv ❤ from Melbourne Australia 😀
@@texasbeachbumdoes not sound like you can put a bunch of hours on boat in breaking surf. I think it would be good on our 5 to 10 mph days with 3 foot swell, to get bait to boat shy albacore that are hitting the surface. You can see it up close. Saltwater intrusion of electronics going to be a problem? I am wondering if its 10 trips then replace?
Here's a joke, man

hahaha
I agree ,you should get some sponsors mate,why not your helping them and many others
I thought about a boat or drone to drop baits.
Might've saved me a few bu
The drone would be better if you are willing to risk it as the Seagulls are not too bright.
My best trip was conditions like that. Even caught me PB red. We ended up with reds, pompano, and few trout.

The weather was rainy and a lot of seaweed at Matagorda but I still caught 3 bull reds before the rain started coming down.

Fabricate you some little outrigger pontoons for the Fishing Surfer for better stabilization. See what happens. Keep it up! Beast of a Speck!!
Dang so the Aquacat is still the better choice. Expensive but here I am with 2 shark baits out
Yea probably because anything over 3 feet in the surf and this thing won't work good.
I'll give you 300 for it right now...

Drone is the way to go over that. But can be costly. Only down side

That thing is better suited for lakes. I can see me using it for catfishing
Can you add a ballast? So it doesnt flip over in the waves?
I guess you could I remember seeing one added on a TH-cam video
|I use my drone if the waves are too big for my boat. You can buy a used phantom 3 or 4 at almost the same price as that brand new surfer bait boat.
birds are known for taking the bait from drones. And you either hook up a bird or the bird kills your drone.
@@supmikey123 luckily there are not too much birds on my spot. 😃😃😃
There good in the bays and in the lakes but not at the at the texas coast works great on the east coast
Can I put a 10-12 inch grunt on this thing live and trail it out
yes

Honest review finally giving me the information i needed. going to lean my wallet in the back pocket now. thank you
You're welcome if the surf was good most days then it would be awesome
interesting feedback! thanks for the video
Great video, thank you!!
No problem and thank you for watching
Where did you buy that at?
@@farronfalcon8687 breakaway tackle
Fishing in general isn't good in those conditions, drones might be better but cost 2-3x as much
I use to use a drone to drop baits. Time-consuming and not worth the risk
Using drones for that is illegal here in NC
Thanks for the inputs. I’m not going to buy it now. I was planning to buy one. 😊
you're welcome I think it would be better just to buy a long rod
It’s crazy - it’s almost as though they don’t let people know it’s not for 3ft surf!
Imagine that? 😂
It’s literally in its description 😅
Great review. 🎉
I surf fish in Mexico where drones are illegal.
I fish around Waveland MS and the Gulf there has small waves for somereason so I think this boat will work well.
You can find some cheaper ones that do the same thing and are a lot easier to transport
@@mryorkie I looked at the cheaper ones. I had money to burn and got this one.
I will be down there at the end of the month. I will give you $400 for the "bait boat". Being used and all. 😂😂😂😂😂
🤠🤠
Just learn how to long cast from Nick Myer at breakaway tackle. Find 14' 15' foot surf rods.
Nick is such an awesome guy!!
@@ericolsen9799 Yes he is but I really prefer shorter rods as I try to use artificial when I can
11 ft would be perfect for both artificial lures and for bait , try tsunami surf rods

For that amount of money I can get 2 truck loads of Pompanos from my local grocery store. 😅
you want to sell it?
No keeping it
You don’t want it man I’ll take it
The $800 pompano :-)
perfect bull conditions
I'll buy it. If you give me a deal. seriously
Good for bay fishing
Yes, this would work great in the bays.

Yeah. If I just had the money to piss off, it would be on a drone. You are a 100% correct. The surf is alomost always ruff as hell.
It sure is
😂😂😂😂
