TAHOE CABIN for Christmas and New Years
Hi! what’s the length on this one ?
How do you tie the anchor to the kayak?
Bro
can you explain further pls about not leashibg the ore to the boat?
Nice video, made me laugh with the cut ins especially with the ling cod. I am hoping to do this in Alaska
Good trick for the anchor chees
This is really helpful, thanks. I have recently gone from a setup like this to a slightly modified version with a paddle board, but this was still helpful for thinking through how to put everything together to make it as easy to carry from the car to the ocean as possible.
Gave me ideas to do for my fishing bodyboard lol using it at local lakes so dont have to worry about sharks, just eagles and hawks stealing my catch.
Thank you for sharing. 👌👌👌👌
Amazing. I had to come back and watch it a second time!
Cool video!! Thank you for posting.
Zip ties, leaving some plastic in the ocean. Not a fan.
I use that same wetsuit 🤘🏽
Do you use kayak as a float ? Do you tie other end of your float line to a kayak?
Bet i could pick your lock in less than half a minute. 😉
It's my understanding that nearly every lock is easily picked with the right tools and practice. There is a UA-cam channel that shares all kinds of this information. The lock is there so the average crook is deterred. If you really want this kayak, I can show you where to get them cheap =P
Oh man, this is awesome! I've been trying to think of ways to protect my catch from seals/sharks; attach my float line/gun to so I don't lose it; be visible to others; have a place to rest if I cramp up; have a way to carry my gear across cliffs and farmland. I was looking at a float boat but they are so expensive! The only way I could see this improving is if you could cover the catch more. That's where float boats excel. Thanks for the video!
We actually started a company based on helping spearos with tips/hacks etc. Feel free to check out www.finandforage.com if you haven't already! Lots of how to's on the FF youtube as well. Cheers!
Great idea, tutorial and the backup page with all the links, thank you!! I actually prefer the idea of a body board, not only because I have quite a few old ones lying around, but because it makes for a perfect raft to rest on and even move around in the water.
I use my surfboard and a buoy. The buoy attaches to the board, and the board gets anchored, everything else attaches to the buoy.
@@VidarrKerr sounds great. Surfboards can be very zippy and a great raft.
I made my own last summer with a bodyboard with plenty of accesorios built into with with plenty of gear attached to it, no problems and actually turned out amazingly well (I'm at the southern hemisphere). This video helped lot too!
@@pablolobo6560 Yeah, I just made (like finished yesterday) a new float out of one of those circular "pool noodles" and I put a net in the center. It looks pretty professional. I am in Brazil and prices for quality gear is way too expensive. It is always better to build your own.
What length is the kayak?
12'6" if memory serves. I upgraded to the 15' Cobra Tourer for my ultra light kayak. It's the same weight and faster in the water plus it has storage hatches in front and back. Great ultralight yak. I also switched over to Vibe for my lux yak. The Shearwater 125 and Yellowtail 120 are epic.
Excellent explanation and build as well. I have a few Boogie Boards sitting around. Thanks for your contribution. No filler language, all practical tips. Subscribed and thumbs up, bro!
Thank you for this
My pleasure! Sorry it's a bit rough around the edges.
So blues are "no take invertebrate", reds are "no take whatsoever". both are divable, no? if you just want to enjoy the view or take some pictures...
Generally speaking, yes but sometimes blues can be "no spearfishing zones" too where hook and line is OK but spearing isn't. Just be sure to read up on the local regs. Freediving (no spears) is generally OK no matter where you are (not including marinas and stuff like that) but again, check regs and rules.
Yoooo what is Dan spearing with? Is that a bow? :o
It's like a type of hawaiian sling (not pole spear). I had a hard time aiming with it, but Dan was a good shot!
@@KeenDog87 thanks man! I ended up doing some research and found Sea Archer but they're hard to get your hands on in Australia. Wouldn't be too hard to make something up though 🤔
@@asharcena I imagine it would actually be pretty easy to make so long as you use sturdy material.
dont wanna risk loosing HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS worth of gear :-D MUWAHAAAHAHAHAHAHA are your spearguns made out of diamonds or what :-P
Did I say, "hundreds OF thousands" / "hundreds OR thousands"? But also, yes, diamond studded guns are proven to increase bottom time ;-)
I use gold bars for my diving weight belt. Diamonds are for girls. LOL.
Awesome
Whats the maker and model of the kayak?
Cobra Fishing Navigator. Great super light kayak. However the Cobra Tourer is a step up from it due to how light weight it is, faster (longer) and has two large storage hatches.
If weight isn't so much of an issue for you, check out a Vibe Shearwater 125 or the Yellowfin 120
Where can we get the kayak flag holder?
The kayak flag mount was bought from Walmart: www.walmart.com/ip/Kayak-Safety-Flag-Mount-Kit-Universal-Kayak-DIY-Accessories-for-Boat-Canoe-Yacht-Dinghy/660846171
This is great thanks!
Very Very good,congratulacion perfect.
This is awesome, thank you!
Shortly after putting up some of these videos, we launched a brand that is centered around helpful videos like this. Maybe you'll find it useful too. Check out our Fin + Forage channel if you're interested!
You shoot with a reel and a float line? What's the purpose of having them both?
Not to lose your gun if you let it go for whatever reason
You're like the first person that caught that! I personally don't like reels but this gun came with one. Sometimes, depending on the boat and cap, float lines are a bother to them, so I just leave the reel on for when I can't use my float line.
Size of board please???
Sorry to just now see this. Get the largest board you can :)
Solid thorough tips. Thanks for sharing the insight!
My pleasure! We will be posting way more how to videos and such on our official Fin + Forage Page if you're interested in more.
Great video, appreciate it

Good video, but PLEASE don’t encourage people to release plastic waste in the ocean, like the zip tie on your anchor line. The discarded zip tie can choke fish, and it’s just pollution. Peace.
Yes, I understand the importance of that. We certainly are huge proponents of ocean health. We don't even use plastic bottles or single use stuff... I have had my zipties on my anchor for going on 2 years now. I believe it is necessary to use them for safety. If I'm in big swell or a friend needs emergency assistance and diving for my anchor isn't an option, I will without hesitation break the zipties. If there are other products that allow for a similar experience, I'd be happy to switch over to those.

Nicely done Eric. I saw my first "Bruce" under water a few months ago off Pt. Pinos. He wasn't interested in me- thank the Lord! Let's hunt again one of these days.
Thanks dude. I'm just starting to freedive and spearfish in Southern Oregon and i've been thinking about getting a kayak setup to get further out there for a while now. I appreciate the tips!
Right on Peat! Let me know if you have any additional questions on type of yak or set ups :) If I don't have the answer, I certainly have friends that could weigh in!
Did you want to share your Excel spreadsheet? :) Or is it on here and I'm blind?
Very well done and informative! Thanks for the helpful tools!
Great video! I really appreciate your quick and simple description of what you are doing. So many videos ramble on and on for 5 minutes before they show one poor example of what they were talking about. It was great to see several examples so quickly done, you clearly know what you're talking about. I think the background music was a bit distracting and almost too loud but your great content made it bearable. I look forward to more content. Subbed! Thanks!
Thank you so much for taking the time to create and share this great gift.
Such a neat compliment. Ive been working very hard behind the scenes to launch a project that will put a BUNCH of these kind of videos out. Stay tuned :)
Great build man! How much was the total setup?
Mahalo! The total build was about $130 with all the bells and whistles. You could easily do it for under $100 though.
Great build man! I literally made as similar rig today! then came across your video. Great minds think alike!
haha right on! My goal this year is help out the local dive community as much as possible :)
You're on a roll dude! Great Video!
Thanks to that Bamboo Inspiration! I appreciate the opportunity to try and be a useful tool rather than just a "tool" in our dive community. haha.
First
hahahaha that's funny!
Great video Eric! Lots of great tips!
Great, one more tool to use!
Glad to help! much more to come very soon. Stay tuned.
Let me know the next time you go out.
I usually will post in the tritons forum or Monterey Bay Spearfishing facebook group when I plan on doing group dives or newbie dives. Keep the eyes peeled :) Hope to dive with ya soon!
