Thanks for the great info. Is your sportage AWD?

You can disconnect or remove the speaker from the front lower grill area by the passenger side. It doesn't pop up any lights or warning when you unplug it.

That backup sound and whirring is the speaker you can remove. Just a few screws and it also frees up space for the intercooler by taking that box off for the turbo. It's on the driver side on the front end. Black box, you'll see it.

This is my six grade teacher

Great video! Enjoy your channel.

What stretch of the susky has pike?? I thought it was only musky

how it is going so far? any issues? as you know the 12v battery is integrated Li battery , so i don't know if it is safe or no can you share your experience ?

I’m from the uk and today I got 60 mpg out of my sportage mine a gt line

For the jerkbait what power of rod are you using on your spinning set up? Just got a vision one ten jr but my medium rod seems hard to consistently jerk like you do in the vid.

VERY well done tyvm!!

That was awesome. Thanks for sharing this link on your other video! I’m actually prepping for the Power Hour next month, my first time fishing that, though I’ve fished the Susky a few times before. I feel much more ready after this video! Thanks a bunch. BTW I really like your approach to dialing in a pattern. Reminds me of an engineering process!

2024 SX PHEV here. My current gas tank is just over half full with approximately 1200km on the counter. 1.2L/100km economy. Obviously my daily driving is almost entirely covered by the battery charge. I just traded in my 2021 SX Sportage and the gas savings is utterly ridiculous. Truly truly a great experience. Edit: one thing is I wish you could use the entire battery. My car always starts the ICE when battery is just below 1/4 power.

I learned a lot from this-thank you! I’m going to try to apply the current seam info to the Susquehanna on my next trip.

thanks for the tips! when accelerating from stop I do want to keep up with traffic, so the ICE almost always kicks in, after Your demonstration I will try to start it slow :) I find the "energy flow" screen more friendly than the "drive info" dude, what are You doing with Your left foot? :D It should be resting on the left side, and what You are doing looks super weird :D

Where do you take your used oil and how much do they charge?

What do you get for mileage?

Sitting in my cubicle daydreaming about one of these days 🥲. Amazing float, nice musky(s)! How come you stopped using a hat-cam and went to a fixed pole? I kinda like this view better tbh. Is it annoying to wear?

Can you do a video on fall lures please? With specific suggestions, for example, lots of videos will say "use a jerkbait" but there is so many and I have no idea which one is ideal for rivers. Thanks!

Quick question for you. My rivers up here in mid Michigan are extremely low right now, what is your approach in low water level conditions?

Just and FYI or maybe this was a update to the 2024 Sportage, but my 24 Sportage SX Hybrid I didn't have to do any of that. Now I also used the OEM factory hitch that I had my dealer order (part of my deal).

very well-made video . good fishing too

Solid outing. Can't beat finding tank river smallies. As you've seen they grow some other giants up there. Love the U P smallies

I think those plugs should of had some Anti-Seeze applied to the threads, and they should have been torqued to specs.

9:01 That was a sweet bite, right at the boat!💪

Local dealer has a leftover we’re considering. What about handling in winter weather?

great video, no tube bait though lol

Hello Riverman what a great video and beautiful area with some great smallies. I love the way you break down the river and what to look for. Very helpful. I have fished the Wisconsin river a few times up in the Merrill area. It's also a nice area with a few muskies thrown in. I do know parts of the area where you were fishing although not well enough to do on my own. That big rapid kind of scared me off. Just wondering how you managed to get around it safely in a kayak? Is there another easier option to get around the rapid or did you have to portage? I would probably be floating in a small raft if I decided to do it. I would love to float that section someday.

Another great video thanks for the education...... would you care to share which part of the river this was? Would love to float it at some point.....thanks in advance

Love your channel!! I enjoy the tips and information. I live in Minnesota and would love to do a day fishing with you. Another topwater lure I’ve had success with is the riser bait 007r. Give that one a try.

Love the explanations of what you're reading from the water and how to attack it. Its taken many years to harness the knowledge and avoid fishing history. You may have spooked a few but while landing other smallies. We were taught similarly by a veteran river guide buddy. Love seeing it in action brother

If I had a place to store a kayak and transport the kayak to the river id get one. Does anyone own a tucktech portable kayak. If so what's your opinion on them? To me honestly it wouldn't be save to use in heavy current.

It's been really tough catching descent fish. Best time for me was mid May into early June prespawn. The catching and the quality of fish sadly gone seriously down hill. I really hope it'll be better in October.

I just got home from fishing up there for 6 days.Definitely a special place and I will be going back again next year!! Love the channel and keep the videos coming!

Rivers are pretty

You are the man. Great breakdowns. You are braver than me, fighting that current would make me uncomfortable.

If you could live near some of the best smallmouth fishing where would that be ? Which town, city ?

The float from the upstream landing to where you launched at is probably one of my favorites. Got a breakdown of your kayak setup? I've been on a pedal drive the last few years but thinking it's time to upgrade to a motor setup.

I so appreciate your channel. Most relevant to the conditions I fish. Can’t beat the instructional value as well. Thank you!

Love it. Your presentation is right up my alley. Thought process + execution + feedback + adjustments. 🤟🤟

I am interested in 2025 Sportage Hybrid LX FWD (I live in USA). There are no optional heated outside mirrors and compact spare tire on this model. These are optional on LX AWD though. Is there any way I could get these on FWD model? I think Flat fix is the dumbest thing ever and heated mirrors are a safety not luxury feature. I probably could get spare tire on ebayy but how about installing heated mirrors. Does anybody know? Perhaps ordering parts from KIA and have my mechanic installing them? Thanks.

Nice job ! the river is awesome, which my big boat would fit. Tanner Talbot will take you out by Anoka on mississippi in a jet boat for Giants, If you book, tell him I reffered ya please

Thank you, in 3 years I will be considering this car for my wife.

Where did you launch from?

great video, what color of dark sleeper do you recommend for river smallies

Whopper plopper is my favorite way to catch em’ 🎣 Really enjoyed the video and I’m glad I came across your channel. Subbing!!! 😎

wrong about regen. it's better than physical brakes but not better than judging it so no braking is required at all. free wheeling is the most efficient. but given we can't always do that regen braking is a good second choice. not optimum though as it does not recoup all the energy put in to gain the momentum.

Keep these awesome videos coming bud 🎣🤙🏽

It's nice to finally see someone cast with their right and reel from their left on a baitcaster. I know that's random, but doesn't it just look awkward how most people are always switching hands after each cast? Seems very inefficient and clumsy, but hey.....to each their own I guess. Enjoyed the show! Always wanted to run those waters back when I was skinny. A bit too top heavy for those kayaks nowadays. Be well sir!

Is that the upper Miss, or the Crow Wing River?
