hi Zoff, somehow i’ve been following you after your first 3-4 videos were posted. i’m not sure how your channel appeared on my suggested feed in the early days, but i’m glad it did, because i’m very happy to see your successes. your interests resonate with a lot of us out here that you inspire & advise, and your product is safe for all audiences (except for sheepshead & other tasty swimmers.) thanks for sharing your journey thus far. cheers & congratulations.
Marty, you have come along way since the days of transitioning from a house and a job to a boat and now a life you ultimately picked for yourself. You are a good example of what a dream, hardwork and a little perseverance can do! I am in NC, but one day I am gonna visit your place...live good and always inspire my friend!
You are 100% right there Marty. The happiness you have in life (to my way of thinking) is the real measure of whether or not someone has made it or not. Best of luck to you mate :)
Gotta love jumping Tarpon. Even if you don’t getem. Nice yak. I gotta get that way soon. Tell Todd I say Hi 👋 ! Take care Marty! Good luck on your business!
Hi Marty. I just wanted to say I am so proud of you and your company. You have worked so hard for it and it has been a long time coming. It is so wonderful to finally see it all coming together for you. If I didn't live in Australia I would have been over to show you some support by now. I really hope the locals get behind you and help to make it a huge success for you. Well done mate keep up the great work. You're Awesome.
Very excited to head to your site ASAP I live in Fort Lauderdale (south Florida east coast) and have been watching you’re videos since the beginning in very proud of your progress doing what you love! Looking forward to meeting you.
I'm a Pelican Kayak dealer in CT. The Catch 130 HyDrive is awesome. Glad to see it on the water, I got to take a look at one a few weeks ago but didn't have time to test it out. Great video bud.
Super happy to see everything you have accomplished. You inspired me to buy my 1st kayak which was a Catch 100 and I absolutely love it. I'm looking to buy another one so I can have someone tag along from time to time and I can guarantee I will be purchasing it from you! Thank you for all your awesome videos, CHEERS and tight lines 😁.
Nice video work. We bought a Pelican Apex 100 Angler for our 11yr old grandson this past summer, and I've added a Railblaza rod holder, a 6" hatch centerline in front of the seat, bow bungees, paddle keep bungee, and a crate w/rod holders. The Pelican Apex 100 works well for his size.
Been watching you for a while now the progress has been imense. Best of luck with the business I'll be stopping by this summer to pay a visit hopefully buy a kayak. ✌️
Congratulations Marty! Glad to see things for your business are looking great. I know you will do your very best. Wishing I was still close to Florida cause I would come and kayak with you. Wishing you the best...
@zoffinger I bought my first kayak, Strike 120 modded, a few years ago. You got me back on the water. I now own 3 others for my faimly and let friends use them to do the same. Thanks, Marty!
Another great video, Marty. Very nice kayak. Hope you so well selling them. I currently have 5 kayaks. Definitely will be buying a t-shirt. All the Best. Just registered on your website & tried to order a t-shirt and could not do it. Need to make it simpler.
Well done Marty. I've been a follower for years now and its great that your trying to make money with what you love. Please be sure to invest in good marketing and be clever with how you advertise - you must get your fishing guide/ kayak rental name out there! You may not be able to rely on youtube and I think it would be wise to target the tourists the frequent Tamp Bay. Really excited to see the business grow!
Hey Marty: Been a fan of you on RUclips for years!! My first kayak (I still have it) is a Pelican - branded as an Elie. I live in Canada nearby the Pelican factory (about 2hrs drive). I doubt I'll get down to your site, but I just wanted to say that I do think Pelican prices provide great value and I imagine you'll have many buyers (happy customers) in the months to come.
I ve watched your videos ever since that video of " fishing with greenbacks" came up and I want some advise for catching redfish and snook because I happen to live in polk county right by tampa bay. Maybe you'll get to see me appear one day hopefully. And don't forget, tight lines!
Would love to try a pedal kayak for fishing.. Went kayak fishing for tge 1st time in Keywest. It was a tandem paddle hobie that was included for use with the sailboat Air Bnb we stayed at. After wife was feeling a little seasick I was paddling that monster by myself and didn't leave much time for fishing. Anyway I believe you are pretty close. I am in Tampa. Thanks for the videos.
Hey I’m going to Clearwater for thanksgiving and we are going to rent kayaks to kayak/fish around the area and also look at some of the pelican models to hopefully buy one day
Wow thats a nice price for that,got me the Pescador Pilot 12.0 in August paid a few more bucks for it and as able to pick it up local the petals make life so much easier for this old fart haven't tried to stand yet but will try next year getting to cold up here, even just ordered a few Spooks to try on some Bass next year no Tarpon here and working on a bigger better crate for it now what I get from watching your kayak hack video's
Love your channel and attitude on life! I almost bought a green T-Shirt until it was going to charge me 50% for shipping 😬. Sorry man... Cool shirts though 👌🏻
Is the new catch 130 hd good for ocean fishing? I know your a saltwater fisherman but the water where you are is pretty calm. I’m out here on the west coast in San Diego and our water is a bit rougher. I do fish the bays a lot and I know that it will do great there but just want to know how it will do in the ocean. By the way I’m a big fan and watch all your videos. Keep them coming. 👍🏼
I know this doesn't have anything to do with the video but what was the final outcome of the prop issue when you took your little 3 day trip I enjoyed those videos very much '
Really hard for me to understand why you only have 141k subscribers. Your videos are always awesome, great editing. You have a voice that could narrate audio books. Your skill and craftsmanship annoy me, sorry, I meant impress me. Lastly, you just seem like a damn nice guy. Sincerely wish you the best in life and with the business.
Nice job 👍 keep up the good work I think you could make a lot more money just by trying to do daily videos You should also do a vid where you fish off of a paddle board
I have catch 120 next boat....catch 130 for sure. Just looked at the site will definitely get some shirts...and can you rent the 130hd? Or a test drive?

Nicely Done, 🙌🏻
Hopefully the Red Tide has subsided for you guys on the west coast...
One day I will make that trip from Houston to fish with my Boy Marty!!

Sweet. How about a trolling motor drop in?
The hold is not big enough
Love your channel and attitude on life! I almost bought a green T-Shirt until it was going to charge me 50% for shipping 😬. Sorry man... Cool shirts though 👌🏻
For some reason our shipping prices went array. It is now $6.80 for shipping.

Hello Sir, can I ask did you have to trademark your own name ? if so was it a difficult process?
Anybody know what rod Marty is using in this video? Looks sweet!
6' 6" Matzuo

The first RUclipsr that doesn’t have there name or initials on ur merch 😂👍🏼
Nice job 👍 keep up the good work
I think you could make a lot more money just by trying to do daily videos
You should also do a vid where you fish off of a paddle board
That is awesome Marty! How much is it?
$1499!
How wide is that kayak?
Next you will have your own kayaks for sale! Lol but great video
I have catch 120 next boat....catch 130 for sure. Just looked at the site will definitely get some shirts...and can you rent the 130hd? Or a test drive?
As of right now you can test drive one. We are waiting for the first of the year to rent them when we get some more in.
Does it have reverse
If you ever want to get rid of your business get married LOL you got it going on brother I like what you've done
What is that Yak going to retail for? I have a catch 120 that I enjoy.
$1499 is the retail
Guess I will have to start saving and when I get close to having enough sell off the current yak I have.
What body of water is this on
