We finally did it.. For years I have fished the Adder Rock kayak fishing tournament and have always struggled to perform, but not this year. We headed over to camp on North Stradbroke Island for the weekend, weather was rough but the fishing was on, Big Time! Look out for part 2 where it really heats up.

It is so mindblowing that I am sitting here, sunday, 8 PM, Poland, with cold whisky in my hand, and I can watch a cool guy doing cool stuff on the other side of the globe. And understand what he is saying. Life is good.

I am the same Rod; pre comp and post comp I seem to get the fish but on comp day, there's some psychological sway I reckon. Great episode mate.

@jatberoz5972 Ай бұрын

Na it wouldn't be. Tides change an hour a day, bait movement, water temp, current all play major parts. These fluctuations change thr gish congregations. When pre fishing give yourself multiple options. Comp day is always different.

So my fav vids will alway be the inflatable camping ones but a very close second are the yak vids. They are like the modern version of "The Old Man and the Sea", not that I'm calling you old but the setup, one man, a small boat and big fish and you do a great job with the production. I look forward to your stuff always. Cheers!

That's some pretty hardcore kayak fishing there! Does make me feel a bit better as I get ready to buy a yak for the salt though. While that yak is definitely better suited to the surf and very rough conditions, what I'm getting should handle the North Pacific fine as long as I'm smart about conditions.

Haha, the family bailed because we have been working hard at getting a shop up and running and the weather predictions were a bit too terrible to justify taking the kids out of school. Not because they don’t like camping or these kinds of adventures, we do this kind of thing quite often together I just don’t show it on the channel all the time👍

@audioadventurer6892 9 күн бұрын

If you're doing it even tougher than Rod, maybe a Landrover is still beyond your budget. You can still do a beach capable camper built of a first generation sorento, or a early pathfinder. You'll find them in average condition for around five grand and they're both pretty easy to work on. the 2.5L diesel in the nissan is pretty solid, the V6 sorento is the ore reliable of the kias. I'm on a disability pension, which is literally indexed to one third of the average living wage. But I've still got a couple of rods, a cheap rubbish 4x4, tons of time and no commitments.
