Ditched the Kayak for a Glitter Rocket!....
Ditched the kayak for a bass boat to go with my father-in-law for the day to a local power plant lake here in NC. We got on some spotted bas on a day that warmed a little from the frigid temps we had been seeing! Any day is a good day on the water!
Don't worry, the kayak is nice and safe in the basement!

First kayak fishing trip on New River AFTER Hurricane Helene
Просмотров 2933 месяца назад
I took the my 2 boys for our first trip on the New River up in Fries for the first time since Hurricane Helene devastated the area. We were hopeful there were still fish in the area that were not carried down to Claytor Lake or killed. While the area we fish was heavily flooded, it is amazing how fast the river normalized and flowed as if nothing ever happened. I want to thank a few people/news...

Boy when you said you diched the kayak, I thought no way LOL, then seen your description. Glad to see them biting.
Nice
Thanks!
Any still available or the cad file?
www.bassaholicfishing.com/collections/kayak-accessories
Still have this kayak?
@@zackmorehouse I do!! Still love it.
We did that same float yesterday. But we floated to the dam and took out just above the dam. A lot of work pulling gear up the hill. Where is that spot that you took out? We are from Wilmington and only come up here a few times a year
@@42captjoey it's a private spot unfortunately. How was the fishing?
Yesterday we did the whole float and caught 4. Today put in and fished around the ramp area. Caught 2 small ones. Saw a big muskie swim by.
@42captjoey it needs to rain, the water is low and clear l. I think more will be caught if the water had some color
what part of the new river is this. virginia, west virginia. nc
thinking of going back up to meadow creek WV area
Southwest virginia
Nice
@@lgstylo8993 thanks!!
Another awesome video!!
Yes Indeed!!! Love a nice Smallie!!
Nice fish
Thanks!
Can you fit 4 kayaks on top with J-racks instead of stacking? This trailer is pretty much what I'm looking for! Thanks for the video
I'm sure you could!
Thanks for the great video, had the Seastream Angler 120. Two issues were that beneath the seat they crack. Issues with the scupper holes with leaking. That was two, now moving to the Lure 11.5. Praying that it’s a little more solid. It’s a scary feeling to be on the water and constantly thinking if you’re going to lose your gear. Be safe
The V2 lure they addressed a few issues from the V1 version. I've had mine a couple of years with zero issues
Nice Video! Scott you're a natural! 😉
@@RiverSmallmouthAdventures thanks!
What part of the New River?
@@Scott-rq9gv around Galax area
I did my first float with Scott to I caught my first Smallmouth on topwater lure up there it is a blast I got burnt slam up but it was a pretty good trip I'll be ready for the next flight
@@jimmyhanks6640 good deal!
Interested in the anchor wizard mounting plate. What do you got? Thanks
@@clayfeliciano546 www.bassaholicfishing.com/products/anchor-wizard-chute-mounting-plate
Awesome setup man! I have the same kayak and I'm deciding to make the switch to trolling motor, couple of quick questions for you. Can you go all day using the trolling motor on that battery? What kind of speeds are you getting with the watersnake?
@@baseballgod103 yes, I've not killed it yet on the water. I get 2 mph on low and 3.5-3.6 on high.
@@baseballgod103 from my calculations, to totally deplete battery, I'd have to run it 6 hours straight on high and 2.5 on low. But as usual, when you are fishing, it's on and off and on and off to fish. I've had it in the river all day fishing around it and never killed it yet
Thanks for the upload. I would like to ask how long do have the yak and is the seat still like it was new.asking because it’s a lot of aluminium there and my concern is it’s durable?
@@koba_one I've had for 2 years and it's still in fantastic shape.
Awesome catch& release ,someone's having a great day.😅
15 minutes into our 8 mile float, it was awesome.
Where about is the landing at? Does it have a name? I keep seeing it in videos that say it’s Grayson county
Coming up that way this weekend. Floating down the river sat North of fries from Riverside boat ramp to ramp at Patton Mill Lane. I know I've seen you fish that area before. Any pointers? We're fishing from a canoe with paddles only.
@@42captjoey yeah, that's one our main floats. Riverside to Old Town. Senkos texposed weightless has been fire for us. Fish eddies and calm areas before and after rocks/rapids (there are enough major rapids on this float).
Didn’t you mama teach you to go in when it rains?
Right lol!
Looks a little like Ivanhoe to Austinville?
@@Scott-rq9gv close, but not this float
Nice sharing 👍👍 fish on
Nice catches man!
Thanks!!!
That is what you got to love about Crank bait .
Good video man. Always a good day on the water when you are catching them. I have a question buddy? What kind of sandals are you wearing? I have big & very very Extremely wide feet 🦶 sz15 6E wide ( which is very very extremely wide feet 🦶 ) with very very chubby fat wide toes that are Evenly straight across making my foot very very Extremely wide at 6 1/2 inches wide from my big toe to my lil toe & my foot outgrow shoes , socks , & boots when I was young & Flip flops 🩴is the only footwear that will barely and I mean barely fit on my feet 🦶 because my toes are wider than the flip flops 🩴 straps. I have to kayak 🛶 barefooted 👣 because I don't want to break the only footwear that will barely fit me. I am looking for some good comfortable sandals to wear for kayaking 🛶 because I am a chubby fat dude & sometimes I have to walk my kayak 🛶 in low water over rivers rocks barefooted 👣. I appreciate your opinion & help. Good video buddy thanks you for sharing this video & have a good weekend buddy.

@@bassaholicfishing Thanks you so much for the information man. I really appreciate that. I like the colors on your sandals too. One more question are they true to size? Do I need to order a size up or down to fit good ?
@@mackjenkins7721 I wear a 9.5 and have to wear a 9. Mine are the special NRS ones
@@bassaholicfishing oh OK Thanks you so much for your help. I really do appreciate it so much. I hearing that they make them in wide width for people like me who have very wide feet 🦶 so I am looking for a pair so that I don't have to walk in the water over top of the rock barefooted 👣 with my chubby fat wide feet 🦶 & toes that I have. "LOL" Thanks you again so much for your help buddy.
Awesome memories with the boys. Cracked me up when he said where’s my $20 bucks 😂😂
Haha right!
Small or big, fish on the water is always a good day . Nice one bud
Yessir!
What's the cost of a full setup like that if you don't mind me asking.
Kayak: $1200 Motor: $130 55AH Lithium Battery $250-$500 Motor Bracket: $140 Fishing Crate: $140 Anchor Wizard $120 OTWI kayak Trailer :$5000
It's taken us a few years to accumulate all this though
Yes I will probably end up taking my time as well. I've been doing research on kayaks and I keep coming back to the lure. I really like it. And I've seen videos of people modifying that center console to install a trolling motor. I didn't know there was something already created for an easy install. Makes me want it even more lol
yakgadget.com/collections/trolling-motor-mounts/products/quickmount-pod-lure-direct
You do have to have the Feelfree rudder with the motor if you put it in middle console. It doesn't turn well just using motor. The rudder makes it handsfree too
Yup set the hook so fucking hard
I lost a bunch of BIG fish in April not setting hook hard enough. Not making that mistake again. This Lake holds really big fish as well, I just didn't catch them today LOL
Cool, thanks
what trolling motor set up with the Feelfree? thanks
Watersnake T24 paired with a YakGadget pod mount for the Feelfrees Lure. Powered by a Dakota Lithium 54AH in the hatch
I have a video on my playlist of the kayak setup
One of my favorite places!
This is the exact rig I will be looking for in the future and as a Vet I would love to support another. 3 questions if you dont mind answering. What is the tube on the top for? How much does this rig weigh unloaded? How much weight can this rig support?
Tube thing is a Rod Locker/Tube. According to spec page, it weighs 750ish. I'm able to push it around my yard, but it pulls AWESOME. not bouncy. No clue on weight capacity. It holds 5-6 of my kayaks great
I have a feel free lure 11.5 kayak and I love it
💪🏻
Can you please tell me where this ramp is? I am looking to move to Galax and would reall like to know. Very nice small mouth catches, thanks for any help.
Old Town
Thanks
You realize that a double paddle holder will hold the ketch board correct? Don't get me wrong over engineering can be a good thing, but you're talking about $100 plus down time of waiting.
Then buy the double paddle holder lol. To each is his own
@@bassaholicfishing no hate here with doing it that way. I'm just saying there is another option. I have over engineered several things in my life. I just like to keep it simple nowadays.
@@kevinpitts3548 yeah I just don't like the rotogrip for the ketch board.
How far does the motor stick out on the bottom?
Um I can fully pull it up into the recess on bottom of the Lure recess. If I deploy it all the way down for use, it can stick down a good 12" or more
Exactly why I ditched level wind for spinning too much lost time on the water and I believe I catch more.
I hear ya! This rarely happens to me anymore, in this case my braid to fluoro knot caught an eyelet and caused it 😂. Still makes me madder than 🔥 when it happens lol
I have the same kayak and motor , Just done a little different . I have 2 downriggers i use with it . I also run 2 fishfinders if running downriggers. The first fish finder is rigged to the bow . i used it as fish finder , but mainly depthfinder for motor . second fishfinder is just used with the downriggers . I have a anchor trolley on each side with quick releases just incase .
Awesome! Its been a dependable setup
@@bassaholicfishing , I have been running with my set up for 5 seasons now . I wish i had done it when i first bought the kayak in 2016 .
It definitely makes it easier and what I love about it is when I want to go lightweight, I just put the pod in and leave motor at home
@@bassaholicfishing , I have a extra pod to put in when not using motor .

Linda, use your thumb on the edge of the spool and control the spool while you are casting, and also cast more smoothly and control your bloody temper
A knot caught an eye and it's a voice over lol
Nice catch sir
Thank you!!
Definitely not a St. Croix
Naw lol
You pulled too hard
Yup. Unfortunately
Perfectly clean break. Definitely covered with the limited life warranty.
I'm not sure! It may be.
Rookie 😂😂😂
I know right! Sometimes I surprise myself 😂
That’s why I always have a spare rod handy when I go out. Still sucks though because it’s usually your favorite rod. Must have been a monster!
Yeah a monster ROCK 😂. I had 4 other rods to use 😂😂😂
It's called adjust your drag. 🤡
Hates when that happens 😢
Already got a replacement 😂
@@bassaholicfishing there is nothing wrong with keeping an extra fishing rod on hand
@@shadowwolf9329 right!
That’s why your rod broke…..
That's right 😂!
