That must be one of the best fishing locations of Earth! Awesome video!

Fish IDs were Bar Jack, Dog Snapper, and a Sailors Choice “grunt”

I really enjoy your videos. I appreciate how you tell what's going on, what you're catching, the conditions, good to eat or not. You have a no-nonsense way about your presentation, no cussing and no silliness. Looking forward to some more Keys fishing videos.

@acegood7058 2 жыл бұрын

Elias, you need to link up with Key West Kayak Fishing. That would be a legendary collab. So much knowledge between the two of you lol. Even if y’all just sat down and did a short podcast.

The round fish you were describing were probably Permit. They are in the pompano family and are commonly found around the bridges down there

Exactly what I was going to say. Permit are frequently caught there. Need crabs or live shrimp to catch them.

What a fun way to get em at the bridges. Great job. Looks like a lotta fun. Great assortment on artificials. Back in 2002 I was fishing with my buddy who’s a charter fisherman out of north Miami. I would go with him when I had off from work just to help him make money. One day I caught a 29lb yelllw Jack. For shots snd giggles, I checked the record book that night snd found out that I broke the record by 10 lbs. I called him immediately to ask where the fish went. He assured me that it was “sushi” by that point. Lol oh well, at least I have pictures of it. Keep up the great work.

Watching you from the beginning but for some reason I thought I was a subscriber. Absolutely the best ocean kayak fishing content on the tube. I will never have the opportunity to fish in the ocean, so I will stick to my freshwater kayak. I thank Elias for bringing this amazing content so I can enjoy what it may be like to fish in the ocean.

Just got my first Hobie outback and can’t wait to get out and use it. What are the water shoes you were and do you have any recommendations on safety close, like a wet suit? I plan on fishing all over including the surf.
