The Dreaded 24 Hour JULY Kayak Fishing Challenge
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2016
- I face off against RICH in Montauk and ELIAS in Brooklyn-
Rich- / fishaholictv247
Elias- / eliasvaisberg87
in a Multi-Species Battle to see who can catch the most inches of fish from our kayaks in 24 hours or less. The biggest fish of each species counts, although the fish must be over legal size in our respected states and if no size limit then must be over 12". Fresh or Salt, anything counts except skates, dogfish, oyster toads, searobins etc.
This month I had a 29" Flathead, 24" Channel, 23.5" Bowfin, 16.5" LM, and 15.5" Pickerel for a total of 108.5"
After failing miserably at these challenges the past 2 months I figured it was time to fish the Schuylkill for Catfish. I set out into the Philly waters at 10pm and fished til 4am in the less than ideal conditions. Water was flowing at 700cfs with not a cloud in the sky, the very small 1 and 2 years old Flatheads came out very quickly and would stick around most of the night, fished my way around to different spots and the biggest Flathead I could find would go 29", also caught one decent Channel Cat of 24". I spent about an hour walleye fishing which yielded no bites.
From there I went to some Drainages of the Delaware River to try for Pickerel, Bass and Bowfin, covered a lot of water and came up with a 16.5" Bass, 15.5" Pickerel and a 23.5" Bowfin. Early morning saw a good bit of action from the Bass and Pickerel, although the fish were generally small. Having sat in the heat all morning I opted to call it quits around 1pm, originally I planned to fish the Salt for Sharks but that sounded like a worse and worse idea as time went on. All said and done I finished with 108.5".
It was a grueling Challenge from the get go, the schuylkill river has been so low, clear and hot this summer it has made the catfishing tough, but given the heat of the day I figured it made sense to fish all night. After 7am it was a scorcher but it wasnt til about 11am that the shade of the trees disappeared, that is the dreaded time we know as "no shadow time" and about then I realized I should have brought some water and an icy cooler. It took many hours of searching the swamps to find some bowfins but finally did get a couple, although no match to rich's 159.5" score
Thanks for watching!

I was thoroughly entertained!

He is the best fishing You-Tuber ever! And hilarious!
I'll support u all the way through
Another good video
Rich was fishing at the end of a major July Striper run in Montauk. He was catching multiple forty pound Stripers to the point of complaining that he could not get a good Bluefish. If only we all had that problem.
nice job dude
So delirious at the end hahahaha
next time bring some water lol
thanks for that tip on that cooler with the bubble thing
Catfishbill 66 works best for fresh water. Salt water can't absorb oxygen fast enough in a cooler without changing the water regularly. 👍
How do you hook the fish? And what kind of weight do u use
Sea-Money makes Jeremy Wade look like a Disney princess.
w
i love the trout magnet.
I watched the entire video. And I did learn something always always bring water or something to drink man!!
Need more challenges this summer
Where do you launch and park at on the skuke? I've been wanting to drop my kayak in but am unsure of safe areas to do so.
I think your better than 1 rod, lunkerstv,flair, and peric your RUclips is awesome I love your striper kayak videos
This is bad ass
I go down to wildwood crest a lot. What type of lure/bait should I use off the dock on the bay?
I like the way u fish u r awesome
hey chris, im in ac and i am able to catch kingfish. recently, ive been trying to catch brown sharks with frozen bunker with no luck. how do you think i can use the kingfish as bait if my rod only tosses 6 oz?
you should do your kayak fishing challenge at newton lake in new jersey and try to catch some northern snakehead
Yeah, I never lose fish and every one of them is way bigger than everybody else's. Even when there are no big fish in the area, I still catch a big fish. haha. The only thing tough was watching you sit in that kayak all night and day. Don't know how ya do it. I got a small boat but I couldn't sit like that. Nice video again.
Leo says get out of his creek
awesome dude
penis
10/10 delerium, would dehydrate again.
Dude, great effort. I was getting worried about you at the end, you looked miserable.
REDEMPTION! That is the word you were looking for. I was trying to help you but you couldn't hear me yelling it to you through the tv
thank you for your video's
Can you come to Pensacola Florida. The fishing here is amazing
I feel like u guys were motivated by uncut angling
I love these videos I'm actually looking to get a kyak and a new pole
what's up nice vid man
We have different ideas of sounds that are soothing, and relaxing.
Not sure how its spelled, but is a pickeral another name for pike? Im from oregon and we dont have either
U r so down to earth
up here in the susguahanna river its loaded with nice channels, flatheads are harder to come by up here
So excited to find a local Kayak fisherman! I am a new fisher(person) LOL. READ -> I have NOT actually gone out and fished yet. I do have 3 kayaks which I love and I just think fishing will make it even more fun!
I am glad to see a local because I can learn all of the fish species and places to go! So where in NJ did you go? You didn't mention. I plan on keeping a field book like a birder, and note each species I get... I also paint so maybe do little sketches as well...
HOW Do you fishing that brush hog ? are you swimming it or bouncing it off the bottom?
what kind of kayak do u have it's like never leave home with out it
Never caught a Bowfin and would love to since they are such a cool fish. I don't think there are any near where I am in NY near Seneca Lake.
Bowfins are strong alright, but are bowfins as strong as common snakeheads? Because I caught a 12 incher snakehead in a paddyfield in Malaysia, Alor Setar and it jumped and squirmed a lot.
Laughed so hard at 35:00
bowfin are one of the greatest freshwater gamefish in america no doubt about it
Why no frog in the swamps there? Looks like frog/flippin heaven lol
Haven't even watched the vid yet and I clicked like. Good shit sea money
I would love to do a 24 hour fishing challenge (land based though since I don't have a kayak), but unfortunately the fishing near where I live is pretty terrible, I would have to travel at least 1 and a half to 2 hours just to get somewhere where I have a decent chance of catching something big. If I wanted to have a really good chance to catch something big, I would have to drive 4 hours, and if I wanted a guaranteed big fish, I would have to drive 12+ hours.
we should link up. i fish the Delaware off of my jetski. i need to get into this kayak fishing scene
Are flathead good eating wise or are they trashfish
This guy probably takes THE MOST satisfying showers
It te best dude
dude.. good video but calm down when you reel in give some time so the fish will be tired
Awesome vid Bro!
I definitely need to get a Bowfin or Flathead really cool fish.
I watch ur vids 😃
+Itsyaboi Topoc glad to hear! I hope your catching some fish:)
I live your videos because I fish right around orient point and I love striped bass and blues and ways I'm late so you problem wont respond but anyways keep up the hood work and don't stop fishing
+Danny Cirincione *love not live your videos
Hey how many pounds is your anchor?
Man, i can just fish at that creek for 24 hrs.
where in Jersey is this location ?
you got catfish all night get it lol
I'm going to get you some gloves with gorilla glue on them so you can hold on to these damn fish! It's been to hot to fish alot lately hurry up September. What are you going to target next? I'd like to see you get some sheepshead if you can find them, looks like a fun species to catch.
COOL
Go Fish At The Conowingo Dam. A Lot Of Flathead there
that's crazy cause it's the exact opposite here in ohio it's mainly channels and the average 20-60lb flathead but for every 1 flat head you catch 20 - 30 channels
I'm been thinking about a kayak
18:10 made me laugh :D
15 minutes ago I was wondering when is this video gonna come out.
why don't you use the st.croix rods anymore
Now who do you challenge
Hey, big fan of the vids, and kayak fishing, could you link me to the brand/ type of kayak you have? Never done kayak fishing but in deffinetly interested
He has a Hobie - its the *best* kayak. Too out of my range :(
How does he catch bait fish so easy
i see what you did there 13:15
25:45 - lol!
that hookset at 36:50
