A friend and I set out to catch Bridge Monsters and wound up separating for a few moments. In these short moments I found myself almost panicking being that I couldn’t find my friend. Watch and tell me what you guys think? This has to be one of MY BIGGEST FEARS!
I am blessed beyond belief and I can't thank my #family ENOUGH for all the continued support!
Thank you all! And I Love You All!

Hi. My name is Gabe. I live in the Pensacola area and was wondering if you do guide trips?
I’m a first responder in the area and we are always getting calls for lost or stranded boaters/ kayakers…more often than you’d think. We get a lot of tourists that don’t know how our water changes.
Hey Clay, ( @Clay0124 )we are moving down there in a few weeks, I want to get back into boating like I did with my dad as a kid. But that was in Miami and the Keys decades ago. Would you recommend a boating course where I can also learn about the waters and tide changes of Pensacola?
Some of the Parks and Wildlife offer boating training.
I hear about them often. It’s sad. Just like tourist coming to our beaches to swim. We lose several tourist every year to rip currents. Ppl have to heed the warnings and be safe before entering the water.
equipment. I fish the entire gulf coast. I've been fishing this area for 25 years. I live in Texas but got fishing licenses from Texas to Florida. Gotta always have to safety equipement and gather info, tide charts and a game plan.. Have checkpoints to xall someone to let them know you are safe. Know the direction of the current so you don't waste energy getting to your destination and so you don't overshoot your destination.
Catch em up D.We are truly blessed.Great advice. I kayak by myself 999% of the time but I'm in 3-5 ft water. I work at finding people to kayak with but I"m old and my friends are dead. I'm in an OldTown 120 Auto... Love it. Wear your vest and "know your limits is imperative. 100% with you on the trash too. Thanks D.
Better respect the water. Most powerful thing on earth. Be safe. Kayak fishing is so freeing and just fun. Takes the hobby to the extreme level and I'm here for it.
It's good that both you and Doug have been showing the safety aspects of kayaking lately.
Your advice about kayaking gave me chills and should be taken seriously! I go out alone and have had some scary times
Me too... !!! .. I had to call the coast guard after getting blown out to the middle of lake michigan.. 20mph winds just pushing me further an further out.. it was nuts!
@@randpherigo9724 The Great Lakes are one cold place. The chop, the wind, and the cold can kill a kayaker even in the summer.
@@someotherdude No kidding.. there should be signs posted for craft without a motor.. cause you cant paddle against that wind.. you can stay in place.. but eventually the wind will over take you. If i didnt have my phone on me.. i could have been in big trouble.. no boaters would stop for me.. !
Bless you for cleaning up after other careless people, something I used to do when was fishing on the rivers here in the UK. I remember a bailiff complaining to me that people can carry full tins of beer to go fishing but are too lazy to carry the empty ones home. Still happens too. Tight lines Dee. Tony.
Yeah, I recently had to pull my hatchet out on a guy walking towards me that didn't like me reminding him and his buddy that they'd left empty beer cans laying around, that were lighter to carry now then when full, as they were leaving. Seen I was serious and did carry them to about 10 feet from the trash can then dumped them. I hope that restored their manhood in their minds.
I always dress with the expectation that I might end up in the water. I only wear lightweight synthetic materials that shed water easily. No heavy jackets, rubber boots, or anything that could get waterlogged. And if the water is really cold like it gets out here on the west coast I wear a 2-3mm wetsuit under my outerwear. Luckily I have never capsized out on the water, but I'm always prepared just in case I do. You don't have to get ready if you stay ready. Stay safe out there man.
@VitaminDeeTV being on the water is the most peaceful thing there is in the world we live even there is no fish on the line at the end of the day. Just to be with nature and enjoying the sound of nature is the best feeling I get ever time. Bringing home a fish or two is a blessing if it happens but I mainly go to ease my mind. Great video of the open water and beautiful sun (looked like sunrise).
Great video! Most people don’t take into consideration the water conditions. It’s not just sit on and paddle; safety first!!
Dude you scared the out of me ! Fishing under that bridge 😢😢😢😢 Wow. .Be safe out there. Buddy system work , even when I hint it's best to travel with someone . Doug was laughing sorry I wasn't. Trash I don't know why people do that. Thank you from the heart , for our environment. I love cleaning up trash too , fishing line , etc. Great job . Dude . God thanks You
Great advice...always have a plan and someone that knows where you should be.
I was hanging on to my britches just watching. Good job being safe and not sorry. 👍
I bet that was super scary in the moment, props to you for looking out and actually caring so much. Definitely the person you want out with you when yaking! Awesome video brother, dropping you a sub
For sure! I’d do the same with anyone I go out with! Can’t come home without my brothers! #family ♥️
💯 FACTS
Every time you go out you have the opportunity to learn something for sure. Just getting separated like that can cause you to get distracted which can cause further problems. People need to know that it's the real deal out there! You don't have to be in real deep water to find yourself in real trouble! This was a good video D! It shows people that we have to be ready for anything out there and to not only know our limits, but to heed the warnings as well! Good job Bud!
I would never go out there without a waterproof vhf radio. Keep in contact with your buddies, real time.
10:50 I do feel that you really care about your friend and his safety. your friend also must be proud to have such a warm-heart friend like you. bless you.
Love your videos and especially your comment at 2:38 "...just happy and blessed to be out here!" Great attitude to have. Catching fish is a bonus. The opportunity to splash my kayak in the saltwater in Florida is truly a blessing.
It’s not always about bending the rod. Just going out and doing what we love. Let’s Go !! 🧨🧨
I am a first time viewer, I just stumbled on your channel. I’ve also spent my whole life on the ocean on the east coast of Florida surfing, and fishing and diving. When your buddy Doug disappeared that made me nervous. I’m glad you made the point to wear safety gear And always let your friends know where you’re at. Great content I subscribed.
Vitamin Dee - love that you give some info on location and the conditions - not a lot of guys do that making vids these days - Thanks for the video!
Whenever you get underway you should always consider the fact that you may have to get in the water regardless of the platform that you’re on or current Weather conditions. And that’s why it’s always good to plan the day before you go out and that is coming from a retired Coast Guard member. Great Video
We tried to move to Pensacola in October of 2021, spent 8 grand trying to find a rental we could afford, and had to move back to New Caney Texas. Would love to get back there again!
Great video Dee! Awesome reality check about the dangers of the ocean. Always partner up. Love your spirituality. God bless.
I put a bright flag on a tall pole. Plus I carry a knife on my leg to cut me loose from any potential fishing lines if I get dumped.
Great advice Mr Dee, also I practice in shallow water getting back on my kayak and I never ride on a sit-in kayak only a sit-on. Doesn't hurt to overspec everything come up with a backup plan for the backup plan!
Thanks for the kayak safety advice I did some shark fishing when you have to row the bait out at night down in Panama scary fun!!!!!!! Thx for the clean up advice everybody everywhere do your share.
Love your attitude and what you are doing man! Stay with it.
Thanks for the trip Vitamin D, great suggestions and also good for you picking up trash on the water. You're a good man. Keep on fishin.... Nick from Delaware shores at Lewes.
Joining the rest of the comments. I like how you went with a buddy, and was more glued by the "oh no" factor than the fishing. And I watch A LOT of fishing videos.
Always wear the PFD. Get yourself a couple of handheld VHF' radios. Good for communicating and invaluable in an emergency. Cell service not always reliable. Have you fished the upper Escambia? Good redfishing - fish south of Hwy 90, launch on the Pace side.
Thank you for picking up litter along the way❤❤❤…great advice all around
So cool to see you have an awesome UA-cam channel and it’s about fishing! 😍
Yes sir your correct. I do the kayak fishing a lot by myself. Just the simple fact that no one’s as dedicated to go as much as I am! But yes would better to have someone with you
Hey buddy, I have a Oldtown Bigwater 132pdl and I love it. But you and your friend should invest in a marine safety radio. Cobra has a nice handheld radio that floats. Just to let you know. Stay safe. From California coast.
Love everything about this kayak!
Love the vids, bro. I do have to tell you that I have been conditions nastier than that in my Hobie Outback and I've never felt that I was in over my head. I do definitely pick and choose my days but, in California, 5-6 foot waves are normal. Both of your kayaks would do great out here!
Awesome video and great advice that cant be said enough! Someone has probably already said it here, but high visibility flag on a pole and a floating phone lanyard/case could also be lifesavers on big water bodies like that. Guides commonly use FRS radios too, that way you can clip it to your vest and not have to dial a phone to communicate.
Right away I like this guy.. he doesn’t hide his launch and fishing locations. I am watching SC but can appreciate you not being super secretive.. 🙌🏾
Cool video! Thank you for posting.
Love the videos the best idea when out in a kayak and y'all go separate directions. Best thing to have near by are the walkie talkies. Also good in case of an emergency. God BLESS
I fished the greater Tampa Bay area for 13yrs in a kayak. Always had a Uniden walkie talkie with me even though the vast majority of my time was spent on the flats. Better safe than sorry...better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
This is exactly why I keep a radio with me. Everyone should have one. Just saying.
I stopped to listen and watch, and I like your delivery! I'm in Southern California, but like you say...your tips apply everywhere! I'm going to hitchhike along and enjoy what you teach!
Great video. Not so much on fishing but kayak safety. I would have been freaking out not being able to see my partner. Be safe. You can always get em next time.
I got several Bass Pro gift cards for Christmas last year and decided to buy a pair of floating handheld bridge to bridge radios. They were a great investment and make me feel a lot better when I go out with fishing buddies or large bodies of water or tidal areas. We can keep in touch and also get in touch with other boats or the Coast Guard if there's an emergency.
Bring along: Whistle, or 2 different whistles to make a distinct sound that you and friends agree on beforehand. Or, marine radios which are waterproof and clip on to ur life vest.... Or best: cell phone in a small tupperware container that has an actual latch. The good thing about a cell phone is they have a compass, this can help you find a friend or show you that you have drifted a lot.
Any time you are on a large body of water with an offshore wind, kayaking is not an option. This is true even of small open boats. You are one failure away from death- a motor that won't start, a leak, out of fuel, or a dropped paddle.
Capsizing in cold water from a kayak, you will likely die, at least with a sit-inside kayak. You will not be able to crawl back in a kayak without tipping over and exhausting and freezing yourself.
Here in CT on Long Island Sound, several tragic incidents happen every year. It doesn't take much at all for it to happen.
Douggie B man gonna give Dee a heartache. Great video man, looking forward to meeting you soon.
Hey man I am going down to fort Pickens this March for sheep’s head I was going too see if you would want to come I would love to meet you down there I’m a big fan
Ive capsized due to a wind on tide event coupled with finding out someone messed with my drain plug so I was filling with water when i dipped in the waves on the way back to shore. Trouble in the bay in rough water is no joke. Make sure you have an air horn and bilge pump with you at all times!
You’re nuts!! Great video and very educational, you’re a good dude! Keep ‘em coming…
Nice show! Conservation, safety, appreciation for the outdoors - it's all good! Thank you!
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
I did a five day paddle from the mouth of the Edisto River in Charleston, South Carolina. Me and a buddy were in a 15.5 ft canoe. Did four days upriver and one day back down to the mouth. About 5 miles a day up and did the 20 back down. First day at the River mouth near the ocean it was glass calm. On our return, the wind really picked up and we hit a tide change when we were near the ocean. Had a good 3 foot swells that were serious “fun”. Buddy was done up in the front. Couldn’t do anything but lay in the bottom, hands were sunburned and he was just beat up from the trip upriver. I was in the back having a blast trying to keep us near the shore out of the big swells and still making headway to the truck. Took a chance once the truck was in sight and cut across into the big stuff to save some time. Buddy had to get on bail duty because I was digging the front into swells and getting a lot of water into the boat. Canoe was bucking and we were soaked. It was some of the most fun looking back on it, but kinda hairy while we were doing it.
I have been looking to take my 14 foot sit in kayak out to a reef about 1.5 nm from the Edisto River and this video made me think of how different the water can get. Still want to try, but I won’t be doing the just throw in and head out without prep and researching conditions. Will definitely try talking a few people into making the trip with me. Skirt and compass are definitely something I’ll be taking, along with wearing my life vest, extra water and lots of sun protection. Maybe the radio also, especially if I can get a partner going with. Don’t want to be dropping a phone overboard if we can just use radios to keep in communication.
Thanks for the video, stay safe out there.
Serious stuff for sure! Glad you are still here with us! #family Thanks for sharing! It happens quick! ♥️
Bro, your beard game is strong. my wife and i use airtags to keep track of each other in case we get separated.
my hobie outback will handle that, but yea, it gets scary quick. Columbia River near Hermiston will stack up 5 foot waves on ya, get to shore quick.
Hobie Outback handles 3ft high waves in Lake Erie no problem. Just as reliable in big waves as an old town.
Are used to live in Gulfbreeze. I remember driving across the 3 mile bridge almost every day and being a fisherman I always wanted to float under the 3 mile bridge and fish it. Thank you for this video.
Absolutely! I go fishing, so you dont have to! #family 😇 🚀🚀🚀
@@VitaminDeeTV I would love to though I live in Michigan now mabe one day I’ll get back there
Portable marine radios ...a must ...safety starts b4 we get on the water ...
As well as life preserver
You guys need to bring VHF radios with you every time you go out. I recommend the Standard Horizon HX890NF
Good stuff D, God Bless!
Definitely need to have walkie talkies bruh to keep track..
This is so cool (actually warm). Here in Bellingham WA you never go out with jeans on! The water is 44 deg F year round. The winds are usually mild, but waves can swell quickly. Your fishing looks killer. Here, kayak fishing is best on lakes (my opinion based upon my kid's comments). For kayaking, we use open-top in summer (day trips) or enclosed for winter. They closed off rockfish (a common angling fish) until it recovers in Puget Sound. We used to fish for rockfish and they were a great angling fish (med small - good meat - fillet - very mild taste - great small boat fishibng). IMO the scariest part of kayak fishing is being dunked in cold water, with swells, and having to swim after your kayak. I've done that - but not fishing - not fun, buy you swim real quick! Take care - keep up the fishing videos.
Do you ever worry about a shark or whale jumping on your kayak? I’ve encountered quite a few jumping sharks around my boat so I just wonder.. does that ever happen to you in a kayak?
Also… if you and your buddy have an iPhone.. enable the ability to track each others location when on the water. It really helps.
Old Town is awesome! My Old Town 106MK is salt water ready. You have a beautiful kayak.
I kayak fish by myself sometimes, so l went and bought myself a marine radio.
Good video ! As fisherman we all know every day can’t be a great fishing day. These late winter/early spring days can be super windy.
"This aint what i signed up for" LMAO
Here in Hawaii kayak fishing you always get separated naturally for some reason that’s why guys over use radios and actually are constantly talking to stay abreast of each other’s goings on the meet up at the end of the day but always checking in like every 10 min
Over here in the Bay Area (San Francisco), we have a group called Fresh & Salty Kayak Fishing. Whenever we are out in the ocean, we all have a VHF Floating radio to communicate with each other. (Channel 69) We always check each other before we head out to ensure we have the proper safety equipment :-) Which includes: 2 way radio, PFD, Whistle or air horn, knife, etc.
Exactly what I was thinking. Floatable, waterproof VHF tied to the PFD. Especially if you're out alone. Way more likely to get help fast by calling on Channel 16. If you don't drop your cell and it doesn't get waterlogged when you're in trouble,911 could be good.
Even in warm Florida water, it seems jeans would be a poor choice to wear on the water.
my wife did that to me on the water - disappeared and her phone died. she went back to the boat ramp while I covered the entire lake looking. LOL
Noticed you have a moment with just music and wildlife in about every video. Good stuff!
You're a good man . I enjoy watching your vids. Thank you
may I suggest a pair outriggers makes your kayak very stable in rough water, under a hundred bucks
You guys seriously need hand held walkies anytime you go out,, Great content and happy fishing from New Smyrna,,,,......
Love it. I'm in Australia and I just love Pensacola. That looks like a heap of fun, I'm coming back!!!!
Well, come on over and see us!!! Haha! We’d love to have ya! ♥️ 🚀🚀🚀
Awesome video! Cant wait to get my first kayak. I am going to practice in the moat.
Great advice! Awesome video 💪🎣❤️
Good video man Doug disappeared on me today he likes to do that 🤣. Man the swells and wind picked up hard!
great vidéo.. i like your thinkin!!
sorry if my english not so good.. im french from montreal canada.. continu your work
I would say of the 300 or 400 times my wife and I have been out , we have only experienced these conditions 3 times with one time being worse. We had 3 miles to go one time before we got out of open water in 3 footers crashing over the bow constantly but we nosed into everything and continued on. The next time we hid in the salt marsh under a bridge in shallow water for about a hour. The last time we had a mile or so to go in open water in about these same conditions. If you have a kayak that you maintain and you make sure its completely sealed. It becomes a balancing act. Always nose in and dive the nose , never parallel waves. Most brand of sit on tops can take quite a bit of abuse if you maintain staying upright.
Ima have to let you know next time before I disappear 😂 sorry boo
You had me hollering for you too!😂
get you a cheap set of two-way radios. one for you and one for a friend. easy, small and instant. stay safe
that wore me out watching yall pedaling that "far"....no pun intended. awesome yall had fun!!! i was wondering? where is fishing of from your boat?
Get a nice set of two-way radios! Those moments suck but glad all was good!
On it!
great narration, great video, nice style of communicating, new sub thank you for your content.
Congratulations on getting 21 thousand subs I hope you make it to a million one day
Bro was like damn bro you care?!
Great info I think you just saved a life 👍
I’ve fell off a couple times very frightening. Those were the days I was glad for wearing a life jacket
Glad you were smart! Thanks for sharing! It sheds the reality of what we do. It could happen to any one of us! stay blessed, Brother! ♥️ #family
Something similar happened to me and my buddy when we were fishing out of Spanish Fort, I was in a rental paddle yak, one of those Ascend 10t's and my buddy was in a PA14. Headed out that morning there was light chop and pretty still wind, that was not the case on the way in. Just about at the mouth of the Bay when we headed back, I was taking on probably 8oz of water with each swell and it wasn't looking good. Had him tow me to a bank across the river to bail the water then had to dig real deep for 2 miles upstream in a headwind. If I wasn't an athlete I'm not sure I wouldn't have been pushed out in the Bay
Can I ask why your Kayak was taking on water? Don’t tell me your Hobie had a crack under the seat…?
@@VitaminDeeTV sorry if that was wordy, my buddy was in the Hobie and he was high and dry. I was in the Ascend 10t and the swells were crashing over, I had to transverse the river mouth to get to suitable shore to dump and took some white caps broadside. Not panicking is probably what kept me dry that day lol
“I’ll be your Doug”
You both should wear proper 50s life jackets also use vhf's when going off the shoreline
Two way radios! No cell signal required
Oh no, you caught crabs 😂
Kayak fishing is crazy, I've seen so many video's of peoples near death experiences with them. I will stick to a boat. hahaha
For starters, don’t ever go out in jeans and those giant ass boots. If you go in, you’re gonna regret wearing that. Secondly, that kayak looks like it’s way too small for you. I kayak fish in the gulf literally a few times a week and this is pretty mild considering how quick it can shift. The main thing I look at is the wind. The wind can either lay the swell down or exacerbate it.
I haven't been kayak fishing in 2 years cuz I refuse to do it alone...my kayak buddies moved out the state
You need to carry walkie-talkies with yall.
I always told my friends to say together nice video
just subscribed and my fishing kayak is a couple days away from delivery! Teach me everything I need to know please. I just retired next to miles of mangrove shorelines bordering several square miles of dense mangroves checkered with at least a hundred miles of dredged canals cut through those mangroves. If you would like to google earth the area and give me your analysis it is 4th street north and I275 in St Petersburg. I plan to spend the next 10 years getting to know every nook and cranny of this truly amazing area. Please take a look
