thanks for the kind words. happy holidays to you and yours!

hi, i use windy.com and windfinder.com. you should always check at least two sites.

hi, i think that maybe depends on a few things: 1 - how natural you want your presentation to be and 2 - how many snags do you want to deal with and 3 - how many hooks do you want to use? for Rockfish (that don't really care much about presentation), i'd say Hi-Low. for more natural presentation in shallower water for fish that are more picky, i'd say Carolina.

agree 100%. and i've been pretty good about trying to relay the dangers of beach launches and more importantly, *landings*. and comments like yours should absolutely be heeded and given weight. it's human nature to put our wins on display for the world to see - rarely do you see footage of losses. that's the problem with UA-cam. thanks for your input.

@@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 Thank you for your integrity. No one talks about their gear losses or injuries.

@@dcro9903 we need more of that on YT and social media. have you seem my video where i chronicle my rescue by the Coast Guard?

i think it's a good idea to check at least two sites. a couple might be windy.com and windfinder.com.

hi, i actually run a Sideview model (73SV). but, i don't use the SV feature much because i'm primarily an ocean guy and spend a lot time in water that's 100'+++ deep. imo, SD is useful when you are scouting shallow water (like most lakes). what's way more important is how much punch a xducer has. if ur xducer doesn't have enough punch, it'll struggle in water that's over say...~150'. and in Redondo, for example, you could easily see water that's 200'-300'. so i'd recommend against getting a model with an underpowered xducer (some of the lower-end Garmin and Lowrance units). i run the GT54UHD xducer.

thanks. i post these videos not for views, but to share my experiences and hopefully teach others not to make the same mistakes that i made.

Count me in too, do you have any plan in the next event? Thanks

Or do u have tips? If I do get a kayak, are there places there to store it at the marina? so I dont have to tow it?

@@dunmadun351 not sure about storage, but i know you can rent kayaks at King Harbor. they will be recreational kayaks that are small and not super stable. but in theory, yes - you could fish out of them.

You think its doable? Just have to struggle with the rod and gear situation? Lol. I wanna catch sheephead thats why i wanna try.

@@dunmadun351 i think it would be tough. for Sheephead, you'd have to paddle to the kelp forest off of the Palos Verdes area. that's roughly a 4 mile paddle one-way. i would advise against it.

much appreciated!

i'm a fan. given the same perceived effort as my old Hobie yaks, i think i'm going about .25 to .3 mph faster. and the instant reverse is really, really nice for coming to s screeching halt on top of a mark, and especially for filming. the one thing is doesn't do well is glide, as the drive and prop present much more drag in the water than a couple of Hobie fins, but i'll live with it. and with all the new yaks, you sit really high, so you gotta be careful.

camping and launching @ the Central Coast this wknd. if ur interested, shoot me an email.

agree. and if you drag a lively Mack around that area, you never know what you might run into. Thresher Sharks hang out there as well.

long time, no see Vegas!

thx for the kind words! yeah, i'm not going to appeal to a mass audience. most people will want to see fish (big) being caught, and i'm not going to fault the general audience for that. i've always been more of a , "hey, *how* do you do what you do?" kinda guy. but anyways, i'm glad you find these videos helpful. when you get your yak, you can reach out to me at VooDooKayak at gmail!

hi, it's Google Earth.

hi, what do you ride?

@@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 I am using the tamarack angler 100.

@@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 I got the tamarack angler 100. 😩

Detailed video on how to launch out of Redondo Beach - ua-cam.com/video/9VYsCX85A9M/v-deo.htmlsi=ym9wp4BH5fx0h5Zk

There is a dock behind the lagoon to launch from.

hi, there is a boat hoist there toward the southern end of the parking lot.

@@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 thanks! great tutorial as always.

nice. this warm weather really helping with the variety: Triggerfish, cuda, bonito, etc.

I'd love to join sometime! I'm usually out at Belmont / Long Beach if it's open water but I've been super interested in trying Redondo.

@oldgold4197 Saturday 6 am launch from king harbor hand launch. Bob and I will be there if anyone else wants to join. The more the merrier 👍🏼

@@rockyg5441 I'll try to make it this saturday!

for an area that's diversified like Redondo, it's a tricky question to answer. is there a specific species you are targeting?

@@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 yes I try to target more sand bass.i just purchased the avionics app but don't know how useful it will be for me . I'd like to target rock fish also

yes, those are the fish that haunt our dreams, lol. for local, i imagine it would have been quite a beast.

i was hoping you'd make it out, braddah!

hey! great to hear from you. liking the BigWater quite a bit. instant-reverse makes it so much more convenient when i'm filming. how are you doing? have you been slaying the Lings?

sup K! yeah, we should have linked up.

agreed! conditions were perfect, water was moving, fish were on the bite. one of our guys got a sleigh ride courtesy of a monster fish. great company - thx everyone.

my favorite part was getting hailed on while we were in the boat with the kids :)

long time, no hear, YakLocal. check your email.

thanks for the kind words. i think we'll be launching Saturday, but pls keep in touch.

hey, i watched some of your videos. you mentioned things like "DJ". are we talking music like EDM?

@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 oh. I'm a competitive argentine tango dancer. And I dj tango events. I wouldn't call it real djing like edm. It's more like being an overglorified playlist.

@@bertle615 still awesome!

hi, and thank you for the inquiry. i'm afraid we have a full crew for this trip, but i'll keep you in mind for our next outing.

thx man! hoping to see you at either Badwater to Whitney, or the Overlanding trip in September.

nah, i've got some pretty awesome friends :)

@@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 Nothing to do with bravery but everything to do with fitness.

hey there - do you feel like you can navigate around by yourself in the event that you became detached from the group? for example, if you wanted to peel off early, you could navigate yourself back to the launch point?

@@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 like using waypoints? I haven’t used my waypoints I don’t go off shore seems like you guys going off shore ya not for my lynx 😂

@@freshsaltyfries5078 yes, i'd agree. we'd be 5 miles offshore. i'd be uncomfortable with that in an inflatable, especially if there was a kid involved.

Hope you guys catch a big one be safe out there.

thanks for the kind words, man!

i gotta be honest with you, Ruben. if you've only been out one time on a kayak, this trip will probably be overwhelming. we'll be paddling a *bunch*. on top of that, there are other considerations like wind/swells/safety, gear, fishing techniques. i'll keep you in mind for the next invite - thx.

@@honeybadgervoodoooutdoors7305 I’m a tri-athlete and can paddle all day literally, it’s easy. And aside from that one kayak fishing trip I’ve been in kayaks, canoes, and boats all my life.

@@RubenVernier hi Ruben, we're going to have to link up on the next one. we've got a full roster for this trip. i need to keep the party size manageable. thanks.

i go the same speed downhill on a mountain bike as i do going uphill on a road bike. it would be a 3 hour video, lol.

i've seen it done, but those individuals were in pretty good shape. the reality is, it's much more difficult not only to get to spots, but also to *stay* on top of spots w/o a pedal drive of some sort. can you navigate around by yourself in the event that you have to peel off from the party?

I’m a complete Newbie to kayaking. Only gone out once and was more a learning experience by myself. I’d love to try and join you out there but I’m busy 8/3. If you go on Sunday I may join you.
