I was out a week ago Sunday. A few other kayaks were out in pairs. After 3+ hours out, windy choppy not catching much, I started back in slowly. A younger man in a rubber boat fishing was kind of following me as I would stop and fish. He finally motored over and asked, "Do you have a radio?" I answered no and asked if he had an emergency. He said no but was concerned about me seeing I was out all by myself. I thanked him for noticing and coming over to check. Very nice!!
Thank you, It takes me way farther. than I thought I would ever go, especially alone. I trust it more than boats I've owned many years ago. When the fishing sucks it's still fun riding the Solo Skiff and a blast when Dolpins come over and play under and infront of the bow at speed.
Nice video, sub here. Question please, when drifting on incoming tide does the current move north>south or vice versa? Would like to see you land the skiff coming back in, adding more interest to the video.
I hadn't paid attention , other. than the current the majority of the time like the wind , it heads south/southeast. Yesterday i did notice on the incoming tide, the current with very little wind (approx.4mph) was heading north/northeast. later on the outgoing tide it was heading south/southeast. I like launching on incoming tide and land on out going tide. It means less dragging the Solo Skiff on the sand and less fighting the surf of the incoming tide at landing. Tight Lines!

A floating waterproof marine radio is best, but if staying closer. to shore a Cell Phone works as long as it doesn't get in the water.
nice ride!

Wasn't Mikey out today? I fished off MB looking for butts today. No luck.
I did not see him at LJ yesterday, I did send him a LJ report afterwards.
YT, next trip for sure😊
Yep! That's the attitude us fisherman always need to have. Tight Lines!
Been fishing nights in LJ. Let me know if you want to go
Thanks Chris.
Yellotails bite at night? Sorry been trying to figure out rod & reel.
@@chesterlapicto8063 There are conditions sometimes that can improve the chances at night of catching trophy fish.
@@chesterlapicto8063 yellows do indeed feed at night. Some of the best yellow bites are at night.
