Kayak Fisherman takes Maiden Voyage in Tampa Bay / First Time Kayaking
Took a buddy out to the bountiful waters of Tampa Bay to break in his brand new Feel Free Lure 10.5 foot fishing kayak. He had no idea what to expect as it was literally his very first time kayaking. The trip was a success and we managed to catch a few redfish along the shoreline using live shrimp. Be on the lookout for more videos fishing with this newbie.

Using Live Shrimp to Catch Redfish on The Flats
Переглядів 5313 місяці тому
We set out to do some kayak fishing at one of my favorite fishing spots at Shell Key Preserve in Saint Petersburg, FL. Using live shrimp and some artificials we were able to find a few decent fish. The fishing started a bit on the slower side but we decided to keep things dynamic in order to locate the fish. It was a beautiful day on the water and we were able to get a few filets out of the tri...

Me and my buddy Sean set out on a trip to explore some new islands in the waters around Tampa Bay / St. Petersburg. Along the way we threw some lures and also live shrimp. What we embarked on was one of the best fishing days we have had in a while. The action was just about non stop with good size slot redfish and monster trout that were just insanely hungry, and blasting just about every bait ...
The Trout Couldn’t Resist This Lure on the Flats (Limited Out)
Переглядів 5073 місяці тому
I headed out to Fort DeSoto flats in search of redfish and snook. The tide was decent and the wind expected to lay down later into the day. The bite was off to a slow start until I found my first redfish, after a few spot changes I decided to throw around a vudu shrimp right off the edge of the flats. It seemed like every cast was getting a strike. After limiting out on two species I decided to...
These Fish Were Stacked Under This Bridge

Me and a couple of buddies decided to rent a boat on a picture perfect day in Tierra Verde, FL. The tide was right and the seas were calm. We came well equipped with shrimp, creek chubs, and some fresh caught greenies that we netted. It was unbelievable the amount of grouper we caught underneath the bridge, definitely a record breaking day on just the sheer number of gags that were brought in. ...
This Artificial Out-fished the Live Bait (Inshore Slam)
Переглядів 6284 місяці тому
Went out on a super windy day at low tide. Had a few live baits with me, but had I known ahead of time that they really wanted artificial I could have left the bait bucket at home. I ended up with multiple species with something to bring home as well. Thanks for watching and subscribe for more videos.
Fishing with Shrimp and Fiddler Crabs at Weedon Island Preserve
Переглядів 4375 місяців тому
We're back at it again, fishing the flats around Weedon Island in St. Petersburg, Florida. Me and Sean went out for an early morning sesh, where we sat through a slack tide waiting for the bite to turn on, and casted around the many mangrove islands in search of the fish. The fishing did not disappoint either of us on this trip and neither of us went home empty handed. Sean managed to get his i...
