Thanks man, appreciate your comments - still learning myself but can’t wait for spring!

Thank you for this info! They really are an underrated fish here in the US

Thanks! I appreciate it, always nice to hear if something was helpful.

@PeterRanieriII actually I subscribed yesterday to your channel, I saw a couple of your tutorials and one of a fishing trip and noticed that you have more DIY solutions in your kayak that I would like to see how you solved them. One of those is the couple of external batteries added to your GoPro in front of you...are you helping the connectors with something to made ther waterproof or at least weatherproof?

@@araldf a great observation, yes I have tried to make the battery a little bit weatherproof by greasing all the connections with lubriplate 105 grease and then i wrapped the battery in a bungie to keep it secure but also loop the wire down so any water might drip away. its really not a perfect setup though I have had to buy at least a new battery every season as I get caught in the rain or the swell is just too much and it splashes the battery it will die but they are cheap enough these days only $20 and its worth it to me to have continuous video running on my trips.

same here man, same here - just gotta get through a few more months , we got this 💪

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Ioriginally thought it was a partially digested fish but I think your right, it was just a decent sized squid 🦑!

thank you! yeah I'm happy I got this when I did, but hopefully they come out with something similar soon!

I know, right? haha theyr not even that bony either, doesnt make much sense to me either - thanks man appreciate it 🤙

the sinker size? i think on this trip I used 3-4oz. and in the western sound I rarely need to go more than that unless I fish a rip area in a strong tide.

Sorry I meant the anchor you use for your kayak to stay on boulders, what weight anchor ⚓️

@@Waterboy516ohh I’m actually using spot lock on this kayak now so no more conventional anchor. But when I was using a conventional anchor I would use both a 5lb grapple and a 5lb plate or brick tied together and that workes pretty well

@@PeterRanieriII yeah I plan on trying to get to some of the wrecks and boulders next year. I missed my chance on motor guide spot lock. Rumor has it lowrance bought motor guide and is going to start making their version of the xi3 but I’m sure the price will go up quite a bit.

@@Waterboy516 i think both of them are owned by navico so yea that makes sense if they are trying to make something better in collaboration but its really a bummer they discontinued it, your prob right anything they come out with now is going to a higher price. I'm happy i got it when i did but if it has an issue i'm toast, will forever have to figure out the issues with this thing on my own now...

thanks, yeah I guess technically that transducer wire can go straight to the fish finder unit without needing to go inside the hull but for better wire management I prefer it to be inside the hull.

Thanks and thats great to hear your experience is in line with mine. I think I'm with you in super clear water the fluoro may help the line shy fish but up against really sharp and rough structures mono is the way to go 💪

Thanks man! glad you learned something from it.

@@longislandfish2457 this is the 2-30 larger wheel cart I know it’s crazy expensive but I had messed with many other version of wheels and these just seem to be worth it especially if trekking over sand. I actually don’t think the smaller wheel one would have the same buoyancy as this one and keep the kayak floating like it does with these. I say that because my friend Dan has the smaller ones and he’s able to push them under his kayak into the scuppers while the kayak is floating pretty easy when we get back to landing and I can’t do that at all

@ thank you Peter. Now here is somenthing else I wanted to ask you. I have an outback same model as your first kayak(the blue one) and I want upgrade my seat with an Ascend seat. There’s a bunch of videos on youtube of people doing it, would that affect my balance on the water being that much higher you think? Thanks again

of course, and that is also a great question. I just took a look at that seat and it doesnt look too high, I think if you have good balance and are comfortable in the kayak its not going to affect the stability. But its a great question because when i did a seat riser upgrade to the passport it likely was part of the reason my dad flipped as his balance isn't as good and he doesn't have the same experience of being on a kayak a lot. So my advice would be to try it but test it out in a safer environment the first couple trips and see if its affecting your stability.

i used to do those trips years ago - theyr a lot of fun if its not too cold. I just dont have the time as much nowadays. Between 3 little kids and doing house projects my winters now are me trying to get ahead so that I can have the free time in the height of the inshore season

@ have u ever invested in a baclava?

@@sneakz8153 whats that? like a face hoodie?

@ yea, it’s just the hoodie piece with a wind protector for the face, you can also tuck it under all of your clothes so no wind through the crevices

@ I see. That looks like a great idea, you have a specific one you recommend?

great suggestion. this video is very old, I have since bought a soldering pen and heat gun and they make life much easier i agree! prob better lasting as well

I love it. So I used to use my phone a lot more for the relief shading of navionics but my phone kept getting wet so I eventually bought the Garmin Navionics Vision+ chip which cost like $130 but I figured thats cheaper than needing to buy a new phone if it goes into the drink. With that chip this fishfinder is amazing, I have no plans of getting anything else anytime soon

@@peggoty75 I do! It works great. I actually prefer it if the conditions are not too choppy and windy and the current is governing my direction

haha thanks, I can get by when it comes to seafood but I'm by no means any sort of cook lol - heck yea cooking them whole is def a great way to do these fish, nice keepers! I usually will cook seabass whole on the day I get them and then filet and freeze in vaccuum seal the rest. And yes I always bleed any fish I plan to eat. It makes a difference, even with the less bloody fish, you're going to get a better meat, I think it stores longer without the blood too, plus it seems a bit more humane to kill the fish quicker

@@PeterRanieriII Appreciate ya my fellow angler! I'm going to double down. Your skills with the Sea Bass and Tautog are on point! We are all looking forward to next season!

thanks man, i think those are my favorite to catch out there

@@JonR35 great questions. Setting a course, no, as it would def be very difficult to adjust my rudder with the minor directional changes. Spock lock in strong current works great though. And I honestly prefer it in the stern on stronger current days. On windier days I prefer it in the bow since the kayak cuts the waves better that way

Thanks so much for the info!

@@pastapaul150 thanks will do! I know yours was pretty good as well, always appreciate the checking in Paul

thanks brutha I appreciate all the comments this season, still amazed by that cobia you caught. yep now its a waiting game through the long winter...got to catch up on the other stuff now that I put off for fishing 😅😅

@PeterRanieriII thank you brother 👊😊 cobia will be remembered for the rest of my life🤩

Thanks Ben! Happy thanksgiving to you and the family!

😅Haha, I can't wait to see that, gunna have to keep inspect my catches more closely now for trackers - Happy Thanksgiving to you as well! I'll see you out there in spring

grazie per il supporto in questa stagione amico mio italiano 🙏

dang man how did you do that, i dont think ive dove in anything less than 58 and that was with a 5mil wetsuit, i dont do well in cold water. LOL you gotta get back to the home cooked meals my friend! Have a safe flight and enjoy your time there. You will be def warmer than me this winter, lol thanks for all the commentary this season, I'll see you when the weather starts turning up again!

ohhh wow thanks man for telling me! I have always been interested in those rods, ahh so tempting, could always use an extra rod...🤣 what power did you get?

I bought two of the medium heavy’s. My brother in law always uses it to fish same rod. It’s a do all rod. It’s sensitive so you can black fish/ fluke and has enough back bone to pull in over slot bass. When I seen him pull up multiple over slot bass 36in and up on that little rod I was very impressed. I figured I’m going to hopefully get my boat running again next season. my spare rods I let people use are very old and stiff …. I might as well give friends/ family a better experience.

I like that philosphy, have heard good things about them too - just cant put too much pressure on them, but as a back rod for 50$ it looks like a great deal, gunna get one med-heavy. thanks for the head up man!

i did not serve. just have friends and family that did.

@ oh ok I saw the flag, I was with coast Guard Station Jones Beach then with ARMY National Guard , be safe out there

@@DHSFEMA awesome - thank you for watching over us 💪🙏 will do

@ Always

Im loosening after I set the hook to reduce chance the hook pulls. not fishing heavy structure like from shore on a kayak you get more freedom to do this. if you notice on the striper i didnt touch it once. just my opinion but you should adjust drag based on the fish and your surroundings. set and forget it is oversimplifying

im using 8lb test

@@WingoTribe704 have family that did, and I love this country

@@PeterRanieriII u know who originally made it? Cool story

I do want to know the story. Please tell me

Thanks Mario! getting colder and harder to get the fish now it seems - was a great season though

I am on the northshore of Long Island

Gio, I had very similar experience today fishing western sound Ny side. I even pushed into the 30’ range with spread out boulders and very few fish. The 2 wrecks I fished today in 45-60’ had much better action. I really think it’s very much area specific but if there isn’t heavy structure of tightly packed boulders then it’s hard to find them it seems in the shallower stuff. I would def go to wrecks or tightly packed boulders now, the forage type areas are done. Just my limited experience though still trying to figure them out like you!

@@PeterRanieriII Thanks Peter appreciate the tips you are always very good at answering your subscribers' questions. Will try to get out one or two more times before end of November.

Thanks Gio - I really enjoy engaging with everyone, always fun to talk about something we are passionate about and I've learned quite a bit just getting feedback from everyone

@@jessebiondi846 glad to hear it, I tie the non-slip loop knot (kreh knot) to the jig

my kayak is a hobie compass 2021

hey! its commonly referred to as a "bottom sweeper" jig but there are also many other names and types just like this.

Hey keith, I just prefer legs off in the western sound as I feel the smaller fish can grab them and not be close to the hook, its also provides a nice hole to thread the hook when you cut them off. In the eastern sound where they could be bigger more aggressive fish, keeping legs on is probably fine

Thanks - Hey Steve that was on sunday morning, yeah it was a short window in the morning then got pretty windy by 11a

That sunrise was unreal! love hearing your appreciation on that as well, thanks for watching!

That’s awesome to hear! they are so much fun to catch prob my favorite, and it’s always cool to see tog anglers from other places! go get em!
