    I was on fish in a weed bed 10’ from shore during one tournament. A competitor boat saw us and actually cut us off by going between us and the shore, 5’ from us. He had to drive through the weed bed to keep from bottoming out. Obviously, he caught nothing, nor did we after that stunt. People seem to lose their minds when they see someone else catch a fish. I found it easier to cease fishing tournaments rather than deal with the frustrations. You handled it better than I did. You are a gentleman in a sport where there is a shortage of gentlemen.

    As a kayaker myself, some of you in these comments need better insight on proper boating etiquette, along with USCG law and rule study. Suppose this small feeder creek goes for a few miles beyond the mouth where he was passed by the boater…..do you think the boater should go somewhere else because this guy was fishing in the navigation lane at the mouth?? Let him “claim” the entire creek?? Or should the boater approach at low idle, be courteous and offer to pass with the trolling motor, and continue on up to his favorite fishing area? Fishing in skinny water makes close passing necessary. Try fishing rivers and streams, and lakes during winter drawdown. That’s just part of fishing creeks, streams, and rivers. People pass. At least he didn’t flop down the trolling motor and start casting!!!

  • @theonlyculprit
    @theonlyculprit Год назад +204

    He should have used his trolling motor to go by, but this is one of the least offensive experiences I've witnessed on the water. It's public water, and he was out there to catch fish too. It's really not his concern whether or not you're in a tournament.

He didn't know you were on a school till way too late. As far as he knew, you were facing at him, and after he passed, he put trolling motor down and fished water you already fished.

    Harbor freight sells a $20 “plastic welder” that is basically just a giant soldering iron with different head attachments for shaping the melted plastic. I used it to repair some plastic equipment cases for a friend. I just found an inconspicuous place on the edges of the cases to shave off “donor” plastic to repair, cracks and holes. Anyways, I would definitely try something like that before replacing a $4400 kayak. The iron softens the plastic around the crack, to fuse it together, but adding shavings of the very same plastic to it helps. It’s important that you 1) use the same type of plastic and 2) prep all surfaces with rubbing alcohol and use gloves so that you don’t introduce oil’s that would prevent adhesion or fusion. You might also want to keep a cheap little fountain pump handy that you could hook up to the battery and use like a bilge pump in an emergency.

Another plus is my car still gets 28 mpg hauling my kayak trailer. Try that hauling a heavy bass boat. Go with a quality kayak(name brands like.. Perception, Bonafide, Old Town.....etc....), add a trolling motor, and register it like you have to with a boat anyways......you won't regret it.

A thought about your emergency re-patch job... and this comes from having been thru the US Navy's Damage Control Training School, Pearl Harbor, HI several times... I believe patching on the OUTSIDE of your hull, where the water pressure is attempting to push upwards and inwards INTO your hull, would result in a more firmly set patch. Just saying... I in fact effected a temporary emergency repair to a rubber canoe, decades ago, with an ordinary piece of bubble gum, which permitted completion of our journey that day.

    Cole; depending on if your boat is plastic or if it’s not, you can take a torch and get a piece of steel red hot and lay it on that cracked area and melt that plastic back together. Basically just get that plastic super tacky and kinda smooth it out with that hot steel. Don’t actually put the torch to the boat though. Hope that helps.

    Cole, maybe it's time to invest in a bilge pump. They're not that expensive. And are great for situations like this. I have an 18 foot fishing boat and I always make sure my bilge pump is working before I go out. Don't need to half way submerge my boat because I took on too much water. Yeah, it wasn't very "sportsman" of him to move in there on you like that, but it is public water, so you have to deal with it. I've experienced this from both sides as a tournament fisherman and as a civilian just fishing when tournament boats invaded the space I was fishing. You handled it well. Great video.

    Don’t give up on the yak because of that leak. I’ve patched several kayaks, to include my Old Towne Sportsman. Don’t mess with the liquid welds or soft patches. Other than maybe on the water emergency repairs. Get a plastic weld kit and fix it once and for all. I got my kit from Eco Fishing Shop, but I’m sure you can find elsewhere as well. Comes with everything you need including soldering iron with appropriate spade type tips, the plastic strips to weld cracks and add plastic material back in and mesh to add in for larger holes. Also works to add plastic back over thin spots where it may have been dragged one too many times along the keel. Especially if you don’t have a replaceable keel protector.
    Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing more of those tournaments!

      Besides, there was actually a study on bass movement done, can't remember where, but it was over a period of like 2 years. Anyway, one of the observations they made was how unaffected bass were by boat traffic. They will move off the spot and return within around 10 minutes or so. After being caught they went right back to the general area they were caught, however, due to suspected stress responses were unlikely to aggressively feed for about 48 hours. Then they would be back to normal behavior. They also found individual bass generally go to the same seasonal spots year over year even when caught in tournaments and dropped miles from that spot. They hung around the drop off for a period of around a month or so if needs were met, but slowly made their way back across the lake and by the next year they were back in their spot.

      Not a smart thing to do lol Your out in the middle of nowhere, big boat little kayak , guess who wins .
      I have both a Bluesky 360 pro , SW125 and a nitro bass boat , what he did was go buy slow in a public waterway . Nothing wrong with that in a small area , you don't own the water .

    While that suks to have happen you still have to remember no one owns the water. Every one has the right to go and fish where they want. Personaly when i see someone fishing a spot i try not to bother them and will move on to a different spot. To me that just common curtisy wich alot of folks seem to lack now days.

    Yep, there are those where they'll crowd you ought of a hole too. Which if you have those types, when they ain't looking, hook a fish throw it out and that'll be enough for them to see you reeling them in, where you live them away from where you'd prefer.
    Be careful some will shoot at ya.

    There have been so many times that people in boats, jet skis, kayaks and even paddle boards have disturbed my fishing when I was in places in my kayak that a boat or jet ski would have to really work at getting into. Being courteous to another fisherman on the water should just be a standard behavior. I have even had boats that seemed like they were attempting to swamp my kayak with their wakes. Come on people, be better than that. This isn't complaining, it is observing how some people can behave poorly. Cole, even though you had some adversity, you worked through it like a champ. You may not have won the tournament, you are winning in life!!! Go home, enjoy your family and get ready to leave some fish with sore lips on the next time out!!

    Cole, just a suggestion...get flex tape or the spray. Believe me it works. Or keep 2 kits of the patch you used. As you said, check your kayak the afternoon before and get it all ready for whatever. It's great to watch your videos.

    Im so glad you stayed calm with those rude guy's in the bass boat, a friend of mine who was a guild on Wiess lake in Centre Al.ask some pleasure boaters to quit circling his boat and clients while he was on a guilde d trip, they laughed at him and made another, well Sam Heaton run them down , jumped into their boat, beat them with a boat paddle and is still on the crappie fishing channels on Outdoor Channel and Pursuit Channel.. He's a good man,just doesn't take lip from smart mouths!!!

    The guy with the finest crappie/bass boat ever made and he has to paddle his invertible bubble boat around trying to look like he is having fun with no room, no stability, no speed, geeeeeez, just lay it on the window sill and slam the window on it ! When using anything that needs to stick to your plastic boat , scuff the area so the epoxy has something to hang on to. like 60 grit sandpaper by hand, scratch it in a cross hatch and it will stick.

    @ernestclements7398 Год назад +2

    I'd patch it from the outside, with some fiber glass cloth and resin that way the patch would never fail, cheaper than a new yak, and with two under 3 years old you might feel a little bit of a pinch, now and again.

    • @MsKindaSorta

    • @matthewtewksbury9479

      Yes . Gator patch . Fiberglass reinforced resin patch . They are amazing . I patched a lightbulb sized hole in my yak . They make keel gaurd patches too to protect the keel from getting holes .

    Always take Flex Tape along! Yeah, their commercials are cheesy and corny, but their tape is the real deal, and can save your day, or even your life! Great job keeping your cool with the you-know-what that absolutely couldn't resist running the big motor right through where you were fishing, too. Stuff like that is exactly why the phrase my wife hears out of me the most is "I hate humans." Stay Safe!

  • @theFLshark
    @theFLshark Год назад

    Get a PTEX stick at a snowboard shop to fix the hole. That's what we used to use on skis and snowboards. I hear that works better than JB Weld. Just light the PTEX stick and let it drip on the hole or crack to seal it up.

    I fish for crappie and catfish mainly and I keep everything legal to keep. I had caught a nice largemouth while crappie fishing once and threw it in the live well. A bass fisherman seen me and said "hey, aren't you going to throw that bass back?!". I said no, why would I do that? I caught it and I'm going to eat it. Same way with hunting. If I shoot it I'm going to eat it.

    have you looked at keel guards to cove you hole? or contacted oldtown to have them fix it? OMTC i think ( not sure 100% ) has lifetime hull repairs if you buy a kayak from them. they are in arkansas

    I have a spot like you found going in to that narrow creek. With a log across the channel under water. Most people just stay on their big motor and go right over it headed back to the bigger water on the other side. I always stop their and land about 4-5 fish on my way in there. 💪🏻😂
