Dont type "adjustable drag strap" into ebay. Well, not while you are at work atleast!!🤣 great video, i've learned valuable lessons!
thanks
Who you callin a knucklehead, you knucklehead???
Wouldn’t be so easy with batteries, fishing rods, depth finders
Chad, on behalf of the Coast Guard, I'd like to thank you for all of the effort you invest in helping paddlers be prepared and safe in this kayak fishing passion of ours. We need more focus on SOT safety and procedures, because it is indeed very different from SIS practices. Paddlers need to operate with the "when it happens" mindset, not "if." It eventually bites all of us. PRACTICE. Those of us that fish in coastal environments may have a number of rods with treble hooks and braid line. We had just such a paddler here in Lake Pontchartain. During the capsize he became entangled in the hooks and braid. A treble hook punctured his inflatable. The braid wrapped around him. His rods were on the bottom, with him attached to them. He didn't have a knife, so he couldn't self rescue. He clung on and hoped for the best. Heavy cold weather clothes and cold water add a completely new set of challenges, as do wind and waves. Without PRACTICE, you are doomed. I'd offer that a rear entry may be a good option for some. Clear the tank well of gear and mount up surfer style. The kayak is very stable fore to aft. The challenge then becomes getting over the seat, but it's not hard if you keep a low center of gravity. Some may not feel comfortable with this method, but you'll never know unless you PRACTICE. Thanks again brother! Next time you are in the NOLA area, give me a shout. Oyster poboys are on me!
Thank you Paul. I will be focusing more and more on this. We finally got the ACA to acknowledge fishing and start developing curriculum and I will be going through that process and helping spread the word this fall and winter. If you have any specific topics that you would like to see me cover please feel free to reach out. Here are a few upcoming topics.
Preparing for Colder Weather | Rule of 120
Filing a Float Plan
Know Your Limitations (And Improve Them)
Emergency Communications | Be Prepared
Essential Survival Items and Basics
How to Remove a Hook | Basic First Aid Afterwards
More to come……
For what it’s worth, I will also be covering some SIS (or SinK) stuff this fall as well. 😜
@@ChadHooverFishing Next time you are piddling around, try the stern entry and let me know what you think. It has worked with all of my SOT and SOT pedal drives. I have a new one though, and you video reminded me that I need to PRACTICE with it specifically.
on behalf of most sane people get a boat if your going deep water fishing getting tangled is least of your worries just search shark attacks kayak on here
@@ChadHooverFishing can you cover shark attacks on kayaks be interesting your words of wisdom lol
This guy is awesome. As a retired Coast Guard Coxswain, I always had the mindset when getting underway that I could end up in the water. This mindset helps prepare you for those Uh oh moments. Anyone who gets in a boat should have this mindset. Every season should begin with these “drills”. This guy is saving your life so pay attention! Thanks big guy! SEMPER PARATUS!
Chad I have been a safety professional for over 30 years and it was very selfless of you to make this demo. Your efforts will probably save a life, maybe even mine. Thank you
Thank you John. I appreciate your feedback. It’s hard to decide sometimes to do these videos where you are showing the worst case scenario and you are telling people what they don’t want to hear a lot of times so I appreciate hearing that folks appreciate it. 🙏

This is the best safety video I've seen. When I bought my first kayak 5 years ago I watched videos on how to get back in if I tipped over. This is by far the best one I've watched. Knowledge is power and I was able to help my 20 year old granddaughter get back into her kayak after she flipped it. I hope all kayak bass fisherman watch this video. It could save their life. Thanks Chad.
Thanks Skip!!
The sit on top are by far way easier to recover. The cavity kayaks you have to have another person because they fill up with water and usually need another kayak to help dump the water out.
As a 300 plus guy you have given me the confidence to pull the trigger and buy a kayak. I've been thinking about it for a couple months now but because of my size I was hesitant and now I'm definitely getting one. Thank you!
Get it, get out there and give it hell.
@@ChadHooverFishing yes sir! 🫡
Bravo Chad. Teaching safety. Makes this channel the end all be all of kayak channels. Not just products and reviews
Thanks Richard. You also forgot fishing….LOL
One thing to also note is that you always want to face the wind while flipping the boat back over and then you want the wind to your back while getting back in. You can really panic if you fail two or three times because the wind is blowing your boat over while you’re trying to get back in it.
Thanks Freddy. Good call. The strap really helps avoid this so I didn’t think to mention it but I will at some point relatively soon. I’m going to do a real world fully rigged kayak flip and recovery.
Great additional tip. Thanks
Cheers for that tip.
Another great rescue item to keep in your kayak is a paddle float. They really stabilize a kayak and allow an easier re-entry. I started my kayak adventures in sea kayaking and kayak surfing. When I switched to mostly fishing kayaks I used what gear would transfer for my fishing kit. I made stirrup straps for assisted sea kayak re-entry out of nylon 1" webbing. Great video. I too try to express safety and skills on the water. Nice job on the video.
Best video for SOT self rescue from the side I've seen. Keep up the good work Chad!
You made an excellent point...don't panic. When that cold water hits ya...it can be a shock, but remain calm and stay focused on the task. Gather your thoughts and commit on every action! Someone's life may be saved by the time and efforts you put into making this video! Thanks!
Now that was one of the best selfless demonstrations I have ever seen. You are the best!👍🤩🤩🤩
Thank you Chad for your efforts and showing me life saving techniques. Your video has helped me more than you can imagine.
We used this today to get my 11 year old back in his yak. My 13 and 11 year old have to watch this before our next fishing trip.
Thank you, that’s awesome
Nice! I needed to see this before I hit the lakes this summer with my kayak. Thank you for your service
Great video, thank you so much for making it! This has motivated me to take a full session while the weather is hot and just practice recovering , flipping the boat, re-entry etc. The best way to be prepared for unexpected swims is to practice and build confidence in advance.
I do enjoy this content. Some videos make it look extremely easy but after doing it myself I realise as many others do that it isn’t as easy as it seems. I am not looking forward to flipping my fully laden kayak and am hoping to stay upright for as long as possible but fishing in lumpy water most of the time I know it is inevitable 👎🏼 Keep producing this type of content Chad, it is so valuable 😊👍🏼
Thank you. Im committed to making authentic content and calling it like it is. Im glad you appreciate that.
As a full figured model myself, this was a great video.
Thanks Doug
This is a great tutorial. Especially for us 50+ folks. We can do it, but need to stay calm and focus on the correct procedure.
This is the best example that I have seen on kayak safety and getting back on board!!
Thanks Joe
A must watch for every kayak angler, we all need to practice this stuff before we flip or accidentally fall out of our yak. Thank you for this potential life saving video, 👍🙏
Thank you Robin. 🙏
Absolutely a "must know" skill. Thanks Chad.
That's the best demonstration of this I've seen. THANKS
Fantastic advice and tips, and a big hefty guy demonstrating is always a bonus.
I watched. I learned. The content and comments on this vid are extremely valuable. Thank you.
I not only learned alot watching this but enjoyed it. I too am a bigger guy.
Thanks Scott
Y’all please consider joining KBF to help support the channel. Thanks in advance.

Just bought my first fishing kayak, great tip on recovering. Thank you.
Thanks for this video, I will be new to kayak fishing (as soon as my Ike PA14 is delivered and configured), this video was very well thought out and presented. This will be one of the first things I will practice before I even wet a line. Much appreciated and subscribed!
THANK YOU for your time and diligence in such great & life saving video. WOW ! !
We are very grateful for your words of wisdom and actions.
Brilliant! Many thanks buddy. Excellent demonstration.
very thorough and thoughtful video, thank you sir
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Much appreciated!
Thank you and thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
Wow this was great to learn! I'm hoping to get a kayak soon and this was a phenomenal training video
Excellent advice Chad. Thank you very much.
I love your "real life" descriptions of kayak issues!! Thank you
You are welcome. Thanks for watching
That was awesome. Kayaking for close to forty years. Never flipped one. Close in some Mississippi rapids, but they did not win.loved your video. Always that my time was coming and from this I learned something I didn't know. The strap is a must-have. Thank you.
brilliant, educational and entertaining. thanks for sharing Chad.
Thanks Mr Hoover for showing us how reentry is not always easy and needs to be practice from time to time 🤝🏼. @6:05 really made me think how difficult it would have been with a fully loaded yak 😬. As always thanks for looking out for us kayaker's by showing us the reality of stuff like this, 🍻 much appreciated. Until the next one ✌🏼.
Thanks brother. That was the third or
Fourth time I had done it by that point, but you are 100% correct. It would be MUCH harder if it were fully rigged, but this concept and process is pretty much the only
Way that you will get a fully rigged kayak flipped back upright?
Extremely helpful! Your instruction may very well save a life! Thank you.😊
We've seen a half a dozen or so videos on Flipping a yak and recovery.. by far this one was the most entertaining and realistic . 👊
Thank you sir. I’m going to do an ultra realistic one soon with a full rigged kayak. 😜
@@ChadHooverFishing will be here waiting
THIS IS REALLY GOOD TO KNOW, PLUS TO TRY TO ALWAYS FISH WITH A BUDDY WHO CAN HELP CATCH YOUR KAYAK AND HELP YOU AS WELL. THE WIND BLEW MINE AWAY WHEN IT FLIPPED ON ME AND I HAD NO TETHER TO IT. WE DID WELL, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A COLD DAY IN MARCH 3-4 YEARS AGO. FISHING CLOSE TO A BRIDGE, THAT MADE IT EASIER TO GET BACK ON BOARD.
Nice and thank you only flipped once and wish I would have had a video like this to learn from before it happened. remaining calm is the key and thanks again.
Thank you Chad for this video, just subscribed to your channel after doing research on kayaks and getting into kayak fishing.. being a bigger person myself this video gives me more confidence .
Thank you, glad I could help and thanks for subscribing
Really good info, Chad! Thanks for posting!
Went kayaking today for the first time as a 280 lb 6”4 guy and had a couple close calls. Thank you for this video because as you said I feel it is inevitable. But I’m not giving up it’s the most fun I’ve had in years.
Great safety video! Had this happen to me in the fall with a fully loaded kayak which made it impossible for me to flip back over. I always wear my PFD even though I thought this could never happen to me. Luckily someone saw me and gave me a tow back to shore. Lost some gear and damaged my pride a little but could of been a lot worse. After that happened I found myself looking for videos on how to flip a loaded kayak back over. Will definitely be adding a strap. Thanks for taking the time to demonstrate.
I’m gonna do this in the future with the kayak fully loaded to build people’s confidence
what a great video, thank you for getting wet to show us this! this is the scariest part of thinking about a kayak with the kids. after watching this, we'll run some drills to give us the confidence to safely (and calmly) recover from a capsize!
Amazing video mate this gives us more confidence 👏
What a Great video! I am getting set to buy a fishing kayak and it was very helpful to see this and be able to plan for such an incident. thanks.
Last summer i flipped my kayak for the first time in relatively deep water and my mental pictures of this video helped me recover just fine. Wish i could say i had practiced before this occurrence, but seeing the video was invaluable.
That’s awesome that you were able to visualize it and pull it off. Thanks for sharing
Great tutorial. Thank you! I'm interested to give this a try in combination with my 7 year old being in the water as well.
Great vid 👍 It is great to see that us big fellas can enjoy the kayak too!
Thanks a lot, chrystal clear procedure.Nice kayak , regards
i am just getting into the sport and this was really helpful!
Excellent explanation, and now I'm getting that ADS. Good to know extra tips for larger and not as young folks, too. Thanks so much!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching
I do this couple of times during the season and just made my 13 year old son try it . It took a few for me to explain it but he did it alot more gracefully than this old man lol. Really enjoy the content never disappointed have a good day and stay safe Jimmy from North Attleboro Massachusetts
Thanks James, that is a great idea involving the kiddos. I may need to do that (or at least mention it) in an upcoming video.
Great work mate. Enjoyed your video. Thanks. ☺
Hi Chad followed your recommendation and purchased the Rogue Fishing assist-strap. Just bought a new fishing kayak, put it in our swimming pool to practice self rescue. I flipped it over and tried to get back in wearing a PDF but could not do it unless the water was shallow enough to get a push up. Found your excellent video explanation on deep-water entry. Everything you cover makes a lot of sense. Looking forward to trying the technique you have explained when my strap arrives.
Flip over twice and this method did not work for me. I had to get in through the back of the kayak.
Thank you so much for your videos. This was the one thing that has concerned me about buying a kyak and you have addressed my concerns. Thank you again.
Glad I could help!
Awesome tips. The strap assist is a brilliant concept. Thanks for the info👍
Thanks Free Spooling. You can do it without or even with a rope, but this makes it a lot easier and more practical if your kayak is loaded down with gear.
Chad im sure this video has saved lives!! Bravo!
Thank you sir
Hey, hi. Thank you for your great explanation and for advising safety awareness. I have a 12' Old Town fishing kayak and flipped it on a medium-fast river 2 years ago, in about 55-degree water. Thankfully, at least I keep a 50' coiled line with a float, sitting on my bow. It saved my life. I'm gonna get that strap you were using. I'm 71 and that strap looks like a "must have", thanks again.
Glad to help
Great tips Chad. We'll put that into practice here in the UK
I pick up my new kayak tomorrow - this is a great video and I will be practising in my local lake before I head to the coast!
Great demo for a very important thing to know and practice.
Excellent video/ demonstration! Thank you for your time and effort.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment
Thank you. 42 and a big guy. This has been a curiosity if I can even get my tail back in especially after years of beating up my body over the years. Thank you!
Glad to help
Truly loved watching this video. It was fun and informative.
Thanks Jack.
the air rod is the lightest rod I've ever used. Thanks Chad! This video reminds me of boy scouts
Ha!! Thanks. We will have the air rods and air reels available for sale on our website very soon. 😂😂😂😂
Thank you Chad, that is why i chose to keep a nrs strap tied to my front carry handle as my stand up assist instead of some of the other devices. I realized that if I flip, i would need to be able to move that strap to help reflip the boat. I wonder how many guys have just swam their overturned kayak back to shore or shallower water because they couldn't right the ship.
You can do that too if it’s close enough. 😜
Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate this!
Glad it was helpful!
Literally the best video I never asked for and I probably am going to download it on my phone thank you so much
Thanks for watching. Glad it helped
Awesome information sir! Thank you!👍👍
Very helpful! Thank you!
Great video and such an important 'skill' to know! Cheers mate will def be practising this next time i'm down the river trying my new kayak :)
Thank u for this vid. Haven't fell out of my kayak yet but definitely going to practice cause I know the day will come.
You bet! Give it hell!!!
Chad, thanks for taking that kayak to the face and showing how the kayak reacts to a failed entry VS a successful entry.
You did make that look easy though!
Ha! Thanks
Awesome video. Thanks so much. I will make sure my friends watch this.
Awesome, thank you!
Well done, sir. I thank you, and because I will eventually need to haul my clumsy self back into my kayak safely, my wife thanks you. Things can go south pretty fast out there. Good idea to practice. I plan to do that as soon as the water starts to warm up.
Thank you and you are welcome. Definitely practice it once you are comfortable. We are going to refilm this later this spring and get some underwater footage to help demonstrate this even better along with showing some of the things that don’t (or won’t) work that people seem to comment about a lot.
You make this look easy. 🤝
Much thanks for this potentially lifesaving information! 👍🏻🙏🏻
Excellent! First trip out for training the young ones is to get in the water first with their kayak. And do these actions. As part of mastering the kayak. Very good.
Awesome, very thank you for this information. Much appreciated.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video! Saving some lives and headaches right here!
Excellent tutorial! Thank you
Thank you Jim.
Great safety informtion I watched it twice .
Great information thank you sir!
I keep saying I'm going to go practice this and never do but I've fallen out of my yak 2 times and the first time it scared the CRAP out of me and I had to stop and remind myself not to panic! I thought I was cool. I have a new yak and I like what you say about knowing your yaks stability capabilities
Great video, thanks. Much appreciated, new kayaker 👍👍
Great video, and for sure can help in a bind..
Some really life saving guidance there. Thank you for sharing. I'll be investing in a strap now.
Thank you sir
lifesaving tips there, thanks!
I tipped my SS127 over last year and had a hell of a time getting it tipped back over, but I didn't have a strap... seems like it definitely makes it way easier to flip it back with one
I love the strap Idea to help flip the boat, may I suggest you check out a paddle float. it basically turns your paddle into an outrigger , keeps the boat from tipping on re entry, and if set up ahead of time and can help prevent tip overs . Thanks for the video
That had to be hard falling into the water multiple times and still teach. Thank you for showing/teaching.
Great video !!! Thanks!!! You are truely very flexible… I need to work on that
Just watching your video is very helpful
The next warm day I will practice. This morning’s wind chill was -7. 😮
My favorite kayak fishing channel.
Thanks Owen.
Awesome demonstration. 😁👍
Thank you! Glad I could help
Thanks,very informative!!!
Thank you and thanks for watching
