welcome back to another video thank you guys so much for the support if you guys are new to the channel please hit that subscribe button hit the notification bell also hit the like button if you guys have been enjoying the content today we're back with the kayak fishing video we haven't done one in a few weeks now so i'm like man i want to go explore some places with the kayak and hunt for some giant bass so that's exactly what we're going to do today it's a beautiful day outside let's go ahead and look at the conditions and see what we have so if you look up we get a little bit of cloud cover not much we got slight bit of wind which i'm not the biggest fan of when i'm kayak fishing but this place is a little protected it's got a lot of trees around it so i think the wind's not really going to bug us today i got the kayak trailer out today and here is the bonafide ss 127 that i'm going to be whipping around that's delton's kayak right there he's actually not with me today but it was already on the trailer i took alan bob's off it was up top but we just kept that one on but yeah we got the kayak right here we're going to be loading our rods in it and then we're going to take it down to the lake drop it in hopefully find some big fish i'm excited for this one so you guys probably remember this from a recent video this is actually right where we ended up putting the kayaks in it was hard enough with two people i'm curious if i can get myself down here today and more importantly that freaked me out more importantly get the kayak back out of this lake but let's go ahead and look down let's see how everything's looking looks oh gosh i'm already slipping see it's gonna be hard getting this kayak out by myself i will say pine straw for some reason is supe super slippery on the feet but here's the beautiful lake we're just gonna go ahead and grab the kayak and we're gonna go ahead and put in and start exploring this place we were here a few months ago i found a hidden creek in here and i ended up having like one or two bites and i know that they were big ones like really big ones on a frog so i want to go explore that creek it's all the way down on the other end of this lake it's going to be a little paddle but we're going to go down there and i'm going to hope that we can hook a big one i know they're back there we saw him last time so i'm excited about it let's go ahead and get the kayak let's drag her on over here and uh put her in the water [Music] so got me an energy drink got me a life jacket i've got my rods let's go ahead and load this up first so slippery to get down this is actually really hard it's a little tricky spot to get in throw my life jacket back there we'll set that in the cup holder pliers we'll just put in there water bottle we'll put in there and my phone will put in there [Music] all right this one's going to be interesting [Laughter] i almost freaking fell in right there i hear something what is that i heard you back there boy jumping on that lay down all right let's get situated we're on the water now that's the hard part we're good so if you guys are wondering what i have tied on today i have a hybrid jig by six sense with the prawn on the back i don't know if i'm gonna end up using this in here but i had it tied on from when i was on the boat i got a frog which i think is gonna be a useful bait for a big bite today i got a divine swim jig which could be some sauce and lastly i have a little fluke which i think is going to kill it today but let me tell you my problem with the fluke this is actually my only fluke unless i have some in the kayak which i do not know if i do or not but this is the only fluke that i actually have so that's going to be interesting i think we're going to start off with this today and see if we can somehow hook into a big fish all right so we have a decision to make the creek that i really want to go to is that way and so you go through this part of the lake there's another little creek and then it opens up to another big part of the lake which is about four times five times the size of this and then and there's another creek in the back that leaves this little backwater open area that's super the visibility's insane but then there's this other creek that's back here which i think we might should end up starting out at first just because we're i mean we're here so we might as well give it a shot so i think we're going to work back into this little this little creek over here and see if we can find any fish we'll start off with this fluke we'll throw that frog around a good bit to see if we can catch some fish on that um we'll see if we can whack them today like i said this is my only fluke so i'm kind of kind of worried about it i already know i can whack them on a fluke like in the last episode that's exactly what i did i was out on the boat on the lake and uh we caught them pretty good on the fluke i know it i'm smoking in here it's just i'm worried because i only really have one of them so if we start like smacking them on a fluke what are we gonna do that's my only concern well let's go ahead and start casting around let's work our way back in this creek see if we can find some good fish and then we'll start working our way over to the other side of the lake and uh fish that ultra clear creek that i think has some really big ones in it oh did you hear that sonic dude oh my god i can't tell if i was like a little bluegill or if that was a bass so i kind of changed my mind now let me tell you why so the water clarity on this end of the lake is kind of like tannic water it's got that brown tint to it and it's it's got a good bit of visibility like you can still see down in the water a good bit but it just has that weird murkiness to it it's like that tannic water so on the other end of the lake the bigger area and by that other fresh little spring creek that's pouring into this lake is a lot clearer and i think this time of year with these fish positioning to bed and this this and that i think that other side is going to be it's going to set up a lot better than this side so i think we're going to go ahead and work our way over there we might fish a little bit along the way but for the most part i think i really want to get on that and i think that's where a majority of the bigger fish are going to be so oh yeah yeah first fish that was awesome i was like reeling the fluke in and he just ate it he's a really small one he like blew up on it like a top water heck yeah about a pounder that's okay not not a big one small one but to start off the day that's like perfect heck yeah like i said guys every time i catch the first fish i do not care the size of it even the first five fish sometimes you know you really gotta figure them out and that's a beautiful little bass not big but still a pretty one let's get you right back in baby you got some beautiful colors on you beautiful colors there she goes first fish today that is a great sign did not mess up our fluke that much which is awesome because we do not want to do that off the bat that is great little little monkey off our back we i was going to paddle to the other side i'm still in this first little little pocket area we're not in the big lake yet i just decided to make a few casts and hook one up real quick and get the monkey off her back so we don't have too much pressure on ourselves right now can't go wrong with fishing the mouth of this creek right here my opinion there should be a big in right here now the wind's going to rotate my kayak all the way in a circle so i cannot fish amazing [Music] uh well here we are we just made it this big open body of water over here the water clarity is totally different it's still a little murky right here but once we get out i can already tell just by looking at it from afar the water clarity is just totally different i like this bank it's a steeper bank it's really shallow water in this lake this bank right here is a lot more steeper than the other banks leads into like a smaller pocket back here i think there's gonna be some fish stacked up around this we just need to fish this left hand side really good this right hand side could be good as well but we really need to focus right here and then all the way back in that corner golly where'd this wind come from why was this just like a surprise here it's not been this bad earlier wind is whipping i'm calling this one that's a fish yep oh that was a good one and i stuck them i stuck them sun sun sun sun i didn't expect one like that that's about a three and a half pounder there's a smaller one with them i saw there's two fish freaking one that ate me was big what [Music] i knew that cast like two sauced two juiced no way she gonna bite again smaller one might bite that's aggravating [Music] i didn't think she was that big and then i saw her mouth opened up i was like no i might should have let her eat it for a little bit longer should be another one back here oh that's money oh oh what what what the fish ate it like a topwater oh my gosh no way let's throw it back in there [Music] oh gosh that was crazy now he's not going to bite again i never stuck him oh oh he almost fell in oh he ate it what look how small he is are you kidding me i'm about to say he's behind it i almost fell in the water over this little guy i can tell you one thing we got to be careful with i do not want to roll up on this i want to fish this area right here this is like why i came right here get off my line that is the struggle of kayak fishing especially if you don't have like pedal kayak or a motor or anything on this see there's another one gosh that was so funny that little tiny fish almost made me fall in the water here oh there's a fish right in front of me oh you like turned into eight something right there oh no you like went after it what are you doing what are you doing dude what are you doing you gotta eat it make some play with me these fish are really trying to play with me today so if you guys are wondering we're actually heading back into this creek i was talking about that you know extra gold right there [Music] i almost fell in there that's actually a good one yo let's go baby heading back into the clearwater creek got a good fish right here uh-huh little guy but he's bigger than the rest i got you on the top and the bottom jaw that's actually pretty impressive see his head see how his head's just so big you almost put me in the water you little guy thank you though but yeah we're heading back into this little clearwater creek that's a good little sign that's the best fish we've seen today or actually i had that one that was actually around three pounds but that is a the best one that we've caught today we're about to start heading back here the water hasn't really cleared up quite yet but once you get back in here a good bit that's when it starts to clear up and i think i'm going to try that frog i really think the frog is going to be the golden ticket today well there we go guys that is a refreshing little catch right there that fish blew up on i skipped her right up on that lay down and she just went right over the top of it that's exactly how you want it right there we're gonna keep on working back in here i think there's gonna be a lot more fish this is the very important part right here is we gotta be super stealthy like this is inches of water once we get back here not only is it inches of water the visibility is ridiculous and it's a very narrow creek very small you know you can only fit a few kayaks side by side when you're going through this if that you know if you can fit two kayaks next to each other so we're just to play it very very safe here and work very slow you know i'm usually the type of guy that covers a lot of water and i like to work really fast but right now in this situation we're just going to have to slow down pick our poison get those good casts where we need to be getting them under those lay downs next to some of that vegetation any little bends increases in the bank you know that's going to be very important as well so we're going to need to hit all those little areas and uh we should come out with a couple big fish in here if we can you know keep her cool stay calm be quiet and um try to put together a big bag back in this little creek you see what i'm saying guys see how like tight and narrow this place is back here it's a bunch of grass i need to be quiet i'm not going to be paddling around too rough back here i just want to make sure that we can get back to where these big fish are this is the breaking point so you're still you still have some clear water here but you still got that like tannic look to it right when you break right here over this little grass grassy area we're in about six inches of water this is where it's going to get really clear you're about to see a water visibility change oh bass right there and the bass just hit right there on the bank and i know this sounds crazy you notice when i just set my paddle down how i set it down really soft just you don't want to you know put off a lot of vibration every time someone's on my boat i say the same thing you know if we're fishing and someone opens a compartment you don't want to slam that i know it sounds crazy but even the vibration off of you slamming things down can spook those fish so that's the last thing that we want you know we want these fish to eat when we're coming in back here we don't want them to know that we're coming up on them so we're gonna play this very stealthy [Music] [Music] so oh my god my rods not my rods so much come on get me out of here come on ron i don't do this so much for being stealthy so much for being stealthy this whole time for nothing come on dude are you really going to do this to me you're supposed to help me out fishing rods you're not supposed to be against me in this situation ah you're just being rude you bet we better catch a big fish back here oh my god get off this tree dude break this rod man [Music] so all right guys we're approaching the back of this creek i'm trying i'm really trying to be quiet last time we were here i threw a frog right here in the back of it and i had a really big one come up and eat it and i just wasn't paying attention and i lost them we saw multiple three plus pounders swimming back here so i'm just really trying to play this strategically and try to fish every little area that i can and there's a ton of grass as you guys can tell on the edges but right here is the back we're about a mile back in this little cut i'm debating if i should stop and go ahead and start throwing my frog or just go right to the back i just know we're gonna have probably one opportunity we're just gonna have to capitalize i'm gonna be upset if we don't have this opportunity but i think we should possible opportunity while back here oh my god that's the cast we traveled all the way back here for this cast right here [Music] all right guys so you're probably wondering what just happened i ended up leaving that place and i'm actually at my backyard pond i haven't been back here in a while and i've actually been wanting to come out here and fish this i'm going to have you guys leave this is the question of the day what type of videos do you want to see out of my backyard pond because i haven't really filmed out here in a while and i actually enjoy filming out here but every time i post a video not really many people watching i don't know if it's because you guys don't like me fishing out of the backyard pond but i actually have a lot of fun back here so i'd really appreciate it if you guys could leave some comments down below on like video ideas on what i could do back here this is a little place right out here this is one side of it you guys know if you go that way it branches off to the main lake then it has another pocket and then way back in the corner has another pocket it's more of like a lake than a pond almost it's actually a pretty big place so i'm excited about this we're about to dump the kayak in so let's go ahead and start lowering her down to the water and we're going to get out here and try to catch some fish but let's go ahead and get in the kayak and see what we can put together today all right we are going to just hop in all right oh i just literally pulled my pants down that's nice you know what i'm curious about one i'm curious about what the water temp is and two are the fish bedding nice what is going on here i have not been in here and i i don't even remember last time i fished in my backyard pond and be honest with you fishing could be really good i don't know this place is really tough this is probably one of the toughest places there is around me so it's gonna be fun i don't know i'm excited about it i think we can catch some good fish today we're just gonna have to experiment and uh see if we can get on some big bass because we did not get on him in the last spot and i don't know if it's the conditions or the big ones just aren't biting today but we're going to figure that out let's go ahead and get it started the wind has picked up a lot more and it doesn't seem like much on the water but let me tell you when you're kayak fishing it can be a pain in the butt but let's go ahead and get this started oh no way yo this might be a big in look at them running oh my god oh my god look at him running look at this fish running what i've never had a bass run that hard in my life this is actually pretty quick too decent fish oh yeah oh yeah that was i've never had a bass run that hard i thought there would be some betting on this bank sure enough first cast like really good cast up there he had it i didn't even move it about a pound and a half right there on the cloud baby look at that that's a healthy fish there might be some more along this bank literally my cast landed on the bank i clicked my reel he was already taken off with it i hook set fish ran all the way out here and then i caught up to him he's only about a pound and a half he ain't nothing but that fish was strong let me tell you that's awesome that's a great sign beautiful lateral line on that bass let's get you right back in bud that was awesome well that's a good start right there that was about i think the biggest fish today probably and it was on the clout in nirvana it's a good little sign there might be some more fish there has to be some more fish on this bank got him look at him running the same way this fish ate it as it hit the bottom or it didn't even hit the bottom look at how they're running sideways what is wrong with these fish [Music] oh why you guys running like that yo that's a good one that might be two pounds let's get you right on over here bud yeah and he is not that big he's actually smaller than the last one he seemed bigger he was right there on the edge of that grass literally i threw out there same same way as the last he fought the same way he bit the same way he ran the same way everything about this fish literally dupl replicated exactly what happened with the last one he does not have it in his goal it just got it really good there you go pretty little guy get you right back in the water bud just about a pounder little pounder younder i thought you were two pounds but you are not i didn't let you go yet calm down jimmy he's got like a little white spot on his eye there he goes how sweet [Music] you
