KAYAK Jump Shooting GEESE While Catching HUGE Fish (Cast & Blast)

Рет қаралды 59,473

Жыл бұрын

Early goose season is in full swing here in Virginia, and after catching very few fish on our last river float I was eager to get back out in the kayaks to try jump shooting some more geese while fishing for smallmouth bass too. The goose hunting started out pretty hot with a few small flocks giving us good shooting opportunities and before long there were trophy sized smallmouth and some catfish being caught. The geese were more wary than the last time we floated, which was expected, but we still were able to cut into a couple big flocks. Thankfully no flipped kayaks on this one either. Hope you enjoy!

I would really appreciate if you include what vehicle you use, how you rig your kayak on it, how you would go about float hunting by yourself (where to park, can you row back upstream, etc.) I'd appreciate to know more about the nitty gritty of kayak hunting!

On those flybys, how far are you leading can't judge gees for the life of me. Say tour first geese, how far out are they? Looks like you had a solid 10ft+. Getting on field hunts doesn't really happen for me so I'm letting getting out exactly like you are.

@HokeOutdoors Жыл бұрын

Just depends on how close they are. Typically only leading them 1-3 bird lengths so 2-8ft at most
