" oh no! Spinsies!" might be the best line I've ever heard on one of your videos 😂
best reaction ever lol
Amazing video with the sharks. I’d enjoy that adventure for sure. What separates you from all the other UA-camr wannabes is your dedication to doing your own thing. You don’t wait till someone finds fish or posts they’re here. Then have to watch the same UA-camrs post the same thing over and over.
Glad my friend Ruben put me on to your channel. Love the content! I miss saltwater fishing and haven’t been since we moved to North Carolina almost 2 years ago.
Gorgeous Sunrise!
This video has me super pumped...
I will be in myrtle beach in 20 days already have my shark fishing charter booked! Let's go!
I never seen so many sharks! Great video Elias!
that shark launching was awesome!
Same thing happened to me the other day in New Smyrna inlet. I put the kayak away and came back with the skiff. Needless to say we had shark on the grill that night
We are going to reach a point in a lot of inshore fisheries that regulations on sharks will need adjustments. We have a place in Jupiter just up the river from the inlet and the bullshark population is bananas.
There’s a considerable amount here…but nothing like I’ve seen in FL.
In Florida you can harvest one bull shark per day btw
@@johnhicks2974if you do harvest your shark, don’t dump it overboard, lots of places will accept donations for the homeless and hungry
You need to get JJ out there for that shark bite! Save him several hours of road time and he’ll love it!
For sure. I think he’d love that one!
Enjoyed this. Thanks.
shark feeding frenzy on this one - they are always around but this was pretty unusual day - one after another! the only advice i may be able to give is to get out deeper? maybe try to target more pelagics - tuna, kings, small mako? you need the good days but you have the motor and experience - still be safe, it is a long summer. happy memorial day #remember
Dude ur braver than I am lol I woulda been gone being in my kayak and that many sharks!!!
Always quality videos, just what kind of net is that, I have been looking for one I like.
The man in the grey suit loves you today
Put a bleeding Poagie in a floating bait bucket, attached to your kayak, with sharks everywhere. Don't know if I would have went that route but you do you. 🤣
Bro that way that shark snatched your line and nearly ripped the rod out your hand 😂
Do you leave the beach wheels on the beach while you fish?
Walmart / Temu jig kind of day.
I was in the Gulf of Mexico this past Saturday was circled by like 25 sharks at one time could literally see then around us it was crazy !
Would love to see ya land a Cobia!
Nice day!!
Yikes!!! Way too many sharks…be careful out there, Elias!!!
It sucks we don't even get a flounder season at all this year in NC
That sucks. Is the fishery that bad down there for them?
@@robe997 the commercial fisherman are allowed so close to land... and they catch all the fish. Also the by catch is horrible with those shrimp boats.
In my opinion…Everybody is fighting the wrong fight for flounder. Go after the summer flounder (fluke)reg in NC. Limit 4 at all states north. 100% in NC is commercial trawling only. Why? DMF says rec cant tell the difference between summer and southern flounder. I can. Anybody that can see spots on the flounder can tell the difference. I think it is about money.
@@robe997 Not at all. Its money and politics. Commercial gonna get their season though. They don't even count their bycatch . Biggest bunch of BS around.
@@kennethbroadwell653 Of course. Cash in the right hands.
Guessing that sharks are just moving through. We used to get runs in Florida at least once if not twice a year. (Spinners and tips)
Is this off Topsail? It's been super sharky there.
Are you going to travel to somewhere where you can keep flounder?
Yes 100%
@@EliasVFishing SC is where I will spend my money this year.
I was fishing in your general area Friday caught a Cobia and three kings on Manhattan and I also seen quite a few sharks
That’s a good day.
I fish a lot maybe I'll see you around out there been fishing these Waters all my life
how far south were you from va boarder. looking to catch some black tips
I think for sharks its fun to get those big runs and feel how powerful they are but then it gets kinda old because youre likely gonna lose whatever tackle you're using. Unless you're using shark specific tackle. Then the issue becomes bringing a large, angry fish that is sharp everywhere alongside your kayak and trying to unhook it.
Wow that’s a lot of sharks, with them biting like that I’d say ya dont wanna fall in.
Sharks are great on Nat Geo or Discovery Channel, but they suck when you're fishing. It'd be nice to see you hit on a big cobia one of these trips. Spotted a small cobia on the jetty just a couple weeks ago. What's the overall verdict on the ePDL in the ocean now that you've gotten a good number of trips in?
"Bunker". I miss those days.
Definitely breeding season... (for the sharks) but they will move back south really soon, the issue of course being that their migration routes/currents and temperatures are all a mess right now so they are in full confusion mode.
With that much bait and Spanish I'm surprised you didn't find some Blue fish and the odd Albie or two mixed in
Honestly I didn’t even find that many Spanish mackerel this day. More sharks every quarter mile or so.
How about a sheepshead/black drum outing one day soon!!!
I miss days like those.
Blacktip steaks on the grill (bleed them!) are delivered...you really should try one!
Delicious- hate auto correct!
54” minimum size - I’m good
Landing black tips on a kayak is a sketchy experience i would imagine.
Funny recommendation since I imagine views don’t matter too much to you but if you put for instance “Wilmington Nc fishing” or whatever vague description you want in the title it would pick up a lot of views a lot of the time people search their area when fishing
Have you ever done a blacktip catch and cook? 🤔
Elias Quint...what a day
You catch one shark and it's fun but most fisher men once they hook into one they want more of it, but like me i like catching a variety of fish some to eat and the rest let go, but i mostly surf fish the banks or assateague but want to fish around around Emerald island one of these days, oh well enjoy. Larry
We cruised Cape Lookout for Cobia and I know we counted 75 sharks between hammer heads and black tips
Sharks are tough on the wallet!
Sharks have gotten thick last couple years.
Sir
I am thinking about someday moving down to your area
could you name a few towns/ areas that I should look for a house
so I could be close enough to access the same beaches and ocean which you like to fish
Thank you
Shark catch clean cook vids lol
WOW!!!! How lucky were you to find some of those critically endangered marine fishes!!!! I hope you picked up a lottery ticket on the way home!!! 😜😜😜
Is the ePDL faster than the Autopilot?
Yes.
Perfect launch conditions
“This jig weighs 10 grams” 😂
Justin Johnson aka Kayak Catfish is the only guy I know that has a chubby for sharks. 😅
If there were any more Sharks in this video, Debbie Gibson could make a guest appearance.
I wish i was healthy enough to go kayaking again
Hope you are feeling up for it soon. You’ll have to pry me out of the plastic boat with a forklift before I give up on it!
Those wheels looked like hobie trax 2's, I always had better luck tucking the front of the yak under one arm and pushing it. Think wheelbarrow. Cheers.
For me, first shark is fun after that they are a nuisance
I never tighten my drag while the fish is running. In general I wait for the fish to stop running then I tighten the drag.
It was a shark day.
There are soo many shark these days. They've been protected for alittle too long.
Florida needs long liners at night for sharks . Too dang many. Was in St. George Island end of April an was freaking stupid how many sharks were on the beach!! Water was murky those skrs were crusing right on the beach . Three ft of waters. It was nothing more than a shark fest week . FFW needs to address the fish caught an sharked !!! All y'all are doing is feeding an attracting more. When they gonna realize that. Don't feed birds , alligator an now pleading for them to let y'all keep what's left. Crap trap baits??? Or maybe a piece of dinner. Be safe man love the content. It's not just y'all it's Florida wide problematic.
Damn, should have focused on the whiting in the surf zone…
Not a fan of sharks…..
Sharks need to be commercially fished and harvested. There is just way too many of them.
Oh well, if you can’t catch what you want , might as well go for a swim. Thanks
Usually I really enjoy your videos, but this one was quite boring. Maybe wait until a better day. No need to post a very boring video.
Your to close to land it’s shark feasting time should have gone where land you could not see but do you bro!
You out of the Hobie game now?
ePDL does everything better than my Outback does. Only thing it weighs a few pounds more.
