Changing Rigs Worked, Catching Blackdrum, Sheepshead, And Cooking In The Autopilot 120 Kayak
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- This rig found the Sheepshead for me. I have been fishing for Blackdrum and convicts with a one ounce sinker due to the depth and swiftness of the current in this location. I decided to try a different area and changed to a very small crimp weight while using live shrimp for bait. Not only did I find a new location that holds a lot of fish, but a new way of loading the Autopilot 120 kayak with keeper Sheepshead in this particular area.
I'm glad I decided to make a move because the Black Drum hole wasn't producing. I'd sat in that location for a long time without getting any hits before making the change. Obviously the lighter weight rig wouldn't be ideal for the Black Drum spot because the water depth is twenty five feet deep and the current is swift there. The new rig works perfect though for water depths up to about ten feet where the current isn't overpowering. When I found the Sheepshead they were running in schools in shallow water. The small split shot was the perfect amount of weight to entice the bite.

WOW this is a 1st for me to see a fish cook on a kayak. 👍👍👍
Thankyou for correcting my comment. I received bad information on the length. You’re a good fisherman…
Another awesome video brother. Great job!
Absolutely awesome video. Cooking on the water in the kayak was an awesome idea.
Love your videos...
You filled that box and to top it off, fresh fish right on the water 🔥🔥 your living JC!
Oh yeah brotha! Freakn cheapie rod/reel, cheapie net, and you still nailed slammer sheepies! You found a nice honey pot area! Awesome catches my man...no matter the gear you have...it's all about the bait and skill! Great eating on the kayak...nothing better than eating fresh caught stuff!
I love a good catch and cook. Well done!
i recognize that spot ... dont worry wont tell your secret lol.. awsome video brother
Killin it with the Zebco. I've had lots of fine days and nights with my Zebco. I think it was a 505 or something like that back in the 60's lol .One of the old push button reels, and a black Zebsco rod. I remember having to save up for it. I was young married, 2 kids used to stare at the meat section in A&P. We were broker than bandits. Used it for years. Man you are tearin up the SheepsHead. I think it's a first JC.... Kookin in the Kayak.... Yep... I'd be telling Oldtown about this... LOL This is great JC. lol I'm lovin it. You da man.
What an awesome video! You are absolutely correct when you say the 120's are stable. I love ours and will say at 6'1" tall and 225 I do not even hesitate to stand and fish from it. Gotta its the first time I have ever seen a catch and cook with the cooking from the kayak! Way to be different JC! Loved it!
Good Afternoon JC you may need to fix you net
awesome job my brother! I just went to Mosquito lagoon and caught 32 sheepshead! That is how I rig as well. Split shot ad octopus hook size 2..
Nice catches. Do u ever get bothered by sharks? That’s what hold me back from going on kayaks lol 😂
Ordered the Sportsman 106 PDL and will hopefully have it Jun/Jul timeframe. Looking forward to getting outdoors and fishing the local lakes. Great video!
Did you get the kayak? How do you like it??
@@kingchrismuzicandministry1783 Yes Sir! Got it last August and I enjoy the he'll out of it. One of the most satisfying purchases I've made in a while.
Awesome video, JC.
good job Buddy tight line :)
Thanks for watching.
Yesssirrrrrr JC love ur vids. Over here on the other coast in St. Petersburg, you gotta check it out sometime
can you do a crappie tutorial i hear seasons starting soon
Super video! I applauded for $10.00 👏👏👏
Thanks for helping out. I'll put that to good use for sure.
Catch, Clean and Cook on the yak , on the water... now thats a hat trick for sure. J.C don't play.
Im just curios JC. Why your the only one I see fishing in that place so beautiful. Was a special permit issued to you? I’m jealous. Nice fishing.
Hell yeah man!
Nice work JC!! I don't know how to get to you on private but I got a spot that's local where the big girls hang out.I caught my limit today.. but I let a 25 incher go free to make more babies..
Awesome video JC. And you are a very smart and intelligent man. That catch And cook on the water was awesome I've never seen that done on a kayak before. I give you props brother for that. And instead of these whiny people saying it's illegal to do that on the water you were smart enough to keep the fish heads and guts that you flayed In your cooler. Awesome work brother. That Fish looked so mouth watering. I bet it tastes so good, and fresh. And once against congratulations awesome video. You had the wind against you cooking it,the waves, the big boats. I whish you nothing but success. God-bless!
nice vidio dear
JC , I’m so jealous , it’s so cold here in Corpus Christi , can’t go fishing let alone get out of the house. Thanks for sharing your videos it keeps me sane.
Thanks JC... I really do appreciate it and I told you before that "you" are the reason I bought my 120 AutoPilot. You and MDLR and actually Eli also... Watching you guys convinced me to get off my larger than a cushion rear end and start fishing again. Thank you so much.
Looks like fun, but mighty risky
Why keep all those fish ? I use to be a subscriber, and like your videos but you seem very greedy on taking everything you can take. 👎
Putting that Walmart set up through the ringer! Love it man! Keep up the great work JC! Tight lines brotha! 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Ummm. Ok. That's officially insane so you get subscribed. Really cool dude. 😎
We call those big sheep's hub caps
Should throw the female sheepshead back to spawn....
How do you know they are female?
The splitshot rigs work great. Most any of them over about 16” are probably females.
Why fish if you no eat ???? You Americans spoil easy . Some day you wish for one fish and no catch . You be hungry
What I like about you is your natural the way we see you, that's the real you, your videos are awesome and 90% of all your videos u do catch clean and cook's I want to see a catch clean and cook on some Snook
Nice.
Very good 👍🙏🙏
Awesome video my friend. You are the sheepshead slayer
Catch clean and cook in the water . I never see that uhhh . When I can go fishing with you??
That's good JC. Keep um in the cooler. :)
should throw out some crab pots while fishing.
Hey JC, wanna to ask you. Do you need to register your kayak with a trolling motor in fl?. I just bought the old town sportsman autopilot 120, but don’t know if I have to register it. Thanks.
Yes in Fl it has to be registered. Make sure it's registered as a canoe or kayak, not a boat. A boat registration costs more.
Question: I new to fishing, mostly from shore and piers. Looking at getting a 14 foot jon boat or a 12 foot kayak. Does the Min Kota trolling motor has a home lock feature where it'll take you back to your launch point. Not too good ant navigation.
within a certain distance the auto pilot will take you to specific locations you've saved.
Click patreon for more garlic and butter, people. These clean and cooks are getting wild!
I’m looking at the penn pursuit 3 reel but I’m not sure between the 3000 or 4000 size I am looking for a reel that can handle smaller fish but that could also stand a chance against snapper etc would the 3000 do the job?
I like the 4000 for saltwater. It holds more line so it casts farther.
need t try it picked like pickled heron. i do it with catfish
Little budget rod putting in work, I wonder how long it’s gunna last and if the rest of those rods have any quality control/would also last as long?
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Awesome stuff dude
Ok I know you hear this question a lot. I’m sorry. But I’m wanting to get a kayak. What is yours? I want the motor too. And pedals if possible. Again I’m sorry for the question. Lol
I should say I’m in nc on the beach. So it would be 100 percent salt water.
I love catch the red drum.
Thanks for watching. It's an Old Town AutoPilot 120 amzn.to/3D3awki
Love your shows dude.... From Cairns, Australia
Thanks for watching. It's good to see subscribers joining from other countries.
JC. truly awesome vid. I would have beached the kayak/then cooked up those sheepies. One hour nap under the palm trees and fished till sunset. Fish/Eat/Sleep.
JC I watch your videos over and over and enjoy them just like the first seeing them. Wish I could fish with you one day I’m a 72 year old avid female angler.
I like your cooking in the kayak.
LoL That dolphin is down there eating all the fish you release. They are sneaky.
In recent years we've really began to see Dolphins stalking like this. I fished the Skyway Pier a couple of times and they literally grab your fish when they are being reeled in. I also had them grab the Pinfish I was using as bait.
Love your videos! Totally fun! Would love to see more Florida 101 beginner videos on how and where to fish. I’m new to saltwater fishing.
Thank you!!!
Fresh fish... you dam rite
Great video, you killed it like usual.I moved down to Port St.Lucia area last year. Got a lot of good tips from your videos.I've been doing pretty good, keep um coming.
You are a brave man hot butter and wave
Thanks for sharing with us
Jc you need to get a cash app account. That way you can keep all your donations instead of giving 30% to UA-cam
Phenomenally awesome, from the start to the ending. It was an amazing video. Doing all that on your Old Town kayak. Thank you as always for sharing.
Great video JC you’re just a kid at heart Raining here in Georgia great pick me up videoThanks for the adventure thanks for bringing us along
Awesome video, and I promise keeping those female sheepshead won't hurt the population.
Nice day. Fishing
Convicts. yessir.
I like your videos. Keep up the good work.
Great video JC. When are you going to really put that spot lock to use and start targeting big bridge monsters? You've got a huge advantage with the spotlock keeping you in place. I miss your old big Snook videos too.
Thanks for watching and commenting. I very often move with the fish that are migrating. I will get on the Snook again for sure when the water warms up a bit. Night video recording of Snook fishing is a real challenge depending on where I'm at. I do have a bridge I want to Snook fish in the spring so stay tuned because that trip will be epic!
Be careful out there and enjoyed your fish!🌝🌝🌝🌝
Nice 👍 catch JC !! Thank you for another great video !!
Katch, Klean & Kook on the Kayak. To funny, JC.
Nice job!
I love your film
It’s twelve inches to the fork not the tail end.
No, it's total length in Florida. I hope you will reply.
Enjoy watching your videos, sheeper keeper 😂
My dad would have eaten that roe along with the fillets.
I would like to go fishing with you man your awesome 👍👌
Get em man
Awesome video - great catch and cook !!!
Great video. Although that net would drive me nuts
Careful with those Flounders. FWC changed the limit to 14in from 12 inches. (In a week that is! )
Thanks for the info. I'll make an announcement on the channel soon!
Solid day of the sheeps, Placida is a great spot for Sheeps too.
Are the catfish good to eat?
Gaff top Sail Catfish are delicious fried
I see you are back on the Kayak! that's nice! what happens? is it the same one? did you recover it? or got a new one? any ways I'm happy for you!
Thanks for watching. It's a different kayak. There's still no news or clues on the stolen one.
Cooking on the kayak that’s wild!!!
You are the boss😎🎣🍴💪
