    I have fished most my life, some great adventures with my brother...
    But watching you fish off that kayak REALLY is incredible!!!
    All I can say is, you my friend have balls of steel to be fishing in those waters in such a small vessel. I absolutely love ocean fishing but I surely would not be able to do that type of adventure. I would need a much bigger boat lol!!!
    Excellent videos!!!!!

      If I were going to use my kayak in the ocean, I'd hope it wasn't as unstable as his. I do own my own fishing kayak and his seems a bit rickety but IDK it's kind of different when you're in the kayak.

    Why would anyone in their right mind dislike this guys content?
    It's more entertaining than 90% of other UA-cam channels and it's
    pretty much better than anything you'll find on Netflix.
    I guess if you're against fishing you may dislike this video but why
    even be here if that's the case? This guy is a good sport and either
    eats the fish he catches or he releases them. ❤💙

    Really?! Not only a very small, shallow floating device (I just can't call it a boat) out among sharks, but at NIGHT. Far more courage than I will ever have. I get creepy feelings just watching. Good to go and actively experience life. It's what you're used to. I'm 62 and have seen the ocean once, about 10 yrs ago. I just think it's so unbelievable that people go in the water when, at any time they could be torn apart by something. Same with camping where there are bears. The threat is real. You can only say, "IT won't happen to me" so many times....I've lived that..and something did happen to me, so I know the other side of that.
