Deep Dropping Hawaii Part 2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- super glassy day with zero wind and I either catch Opakapaka or Kalekale not sure which one.
also my old Garmin unit broke and I took it back to West marine on insurance and got it replaced with a Simrad Cruise 7. Ended up not liking the unit because it was unable to show bottom past five hundred feet.
UPDATE: Sold the Simrad Cruise 7, my old Garmin unit had a weaker transducer and was able to mark bottom up to 1200 feet. Not sure why it couldn't but I sold it and bought a new unit with a 1kw transducer for deep dropping. Not sure if i can mount the 8lb transducer to my inflatable but were going to try.
Would love to see a video on how u mounted ur transducer and overall set up, cheers
Just put it on a floater and tie it off the back.
did that rod break yet?
any scary moment on the inflatable im thinking about getting one!
none yet! a few sharks get curious but other than that i've been fine for about 3 years now. You just always have to play it super safe.
Would this be considered a PWC or a Class A vessel in Hawaii? I am looking at West Marine's Black Friday deals currently but need to know what level licensing I would need to operate. Thank you in advance.
i'm not sure how accurately i can answer your question but I got my boat registered at the DLNR for 12 dollars and because my motor is under 9.9 horsepower's I didn't have to take my captains license class.
@@inflatablefishing6912 Ok, thank you. I don't believe I will be over even a 4hp motor.
Still have to take the boaters safety course
@@lyleching in hawaii boats with under a 10hp outboard don't.
Nice. What top speed do you get out of that 9.9? I think I’m about to buy an inflatable for near offshore fishing down here in Costa Rica and it’s hard to find much actual fishing footage on UA-cam. Thanks for posting. The RIBs look really seaworthy but I’m slightly concerned about punctures. Folks say they are tough but between big fish, big hooks, gaffs and me occasionally being a donkey you never know.
What type of inflatable is this?
howsit going just got my inflatable all set up. lets go fishing east oahu! @eke_fourtyseven
Isn’t that a spinning tiger elite ? Seems to have huge eyes
Ended up being Opaka a deep water snapper caught in 400 to 600ft.
@@inflatablefishing6912 I meant the fishing rod! I use the tigeR elite jigging rod. That one just looked like a spinning rod. Great fishing tho! Where did you get the electric reel set up?
@@jamesneese2708 oh haha, it is the tiger elite. the electric reel is called the fish winch. It attaches to certain reels.
@@inflatablefishing6912 I’ll have to check that out. Seems easier to maintain then a Diawa tanacom
@@inflatablefishing6912 cool vids. What size and type battery do you run your fish winch off? Ever run out of power? Mahalo!
