Kayak Fishing for Whatever Bites, Else Getting a Workout In

Headed to the local lake for kayak fishing Saturday morning. Heat Advisory in effect, so we were not sure if the fish would be biting.

Plan was to either bottom bounce a slab and jig rig or troll it for whatever bites. Else, would get a workout in paddling to and from the boat ramp.

Managed two White Bass - one on a yellow Slab and one on a Crappie Jig. Also, had a little Channel Catfish strike a Crappie Jig bottom bounced.

Not sure how we plan to cook the two White Bass, but will post a video. Do check back! 

Suzuki 2.5hp Outboard, PVC Tool for Jon Boat Seat, and DIY Side Numbers 👍👍👍#shorts

Took the Jon Boat out last weekend. Suzuki 2.5hp Outboard is working well on the 12ft Jon Boat. Plus, the PVC tool continues to make life easier when securing the clamp on seats to the boat, and the DIY side numbers are holding much better than the store bought ones! Overall, Charlie the Maltese Doggy approves! 🐶🐶🐶👍

Kayak Fishing Canyon Lake - Tough Day and Hot Temps, Too

First time kayak fishing Canyon Lake. Water   was crystal clear and weather was sunny and hot. Only caught two litle fish but did get a good workout in!

Did see some Baby Buzzards feeding on a dead carp. May have been a sign to try fishing another time.

LOL!

Zebco Slingshot $9.99 Spinning Reel Combo for Saltwater Fishing?

Fun trip to the Texas Coast fishing for inshore saltwater fish with our Zebco Slingshot Spinning Combos purchased from Walmart for $9.99! Overall, the fiesty combo held their own except for one that got away... would say the 8lbs line was the culprit not the combo.

Easy Fishing Fly - Wapsi Foam Spider Kit #shorts

Quick tie fly tying demo of Wapsi's Foam Spider Kit. Easy pattern, tied in minutes, and fished soon after tying it. Caught four fish, lost what could have been number five... also, lost the fishing fly. Luckily,  tied another one after the trip!

Try This When Your Fishing Mojo Is Off!

Was a fun time on Coast fishing the Rockport area. Did have a slight dry spell when yours truly's fishing mojo was off. Try this to fix it; kinda worked.

Blue Crab Cakes Anyone?

Fun trip to the coast! Was hoping for more crabs but did manage two Blue Crab. No worries, was enough for a catch and cook video of Blue Crab Cakes! Tasty, posted recipe at end of video. Do try it!

Cabelas 2wt Fiberglass CGR | Fly Fishing a Pond

Fished the local pond the other day using the little 2wt Cabelas Fiberglass CGR Fly Rod. Paired well with the 2/3 Wt Echo Ion Fly Reel. I am fishing a Caddis Foam Grasshopper and working the pond by casting to spawning Bluegill on their nests. Polarized glasses make a difference in finding them.

Tiny Crankbait Worked... Are there fish at Lake Glenn?

Bait Finesse System fishing with a KastKing Zephyr without the reel clicker. I am casting a Teeny Crankbait from the Mystery Tackle Box! Caught several but this was the largest caught that round - estimating 16-17 inches.

Simple Fishing Fly That Catches Fish #quicktie #shorts

Foam Grasshopper Variant that uses 2mm closed cell foam cut with a foam cutter to make a caddis body. Calling it the Caddis Foam Grasshopper. Worked well on Bluegill and Bass!

Pond Fishing Fun on a 4WT Fly Rod

Plan was to fish the local pond using Bait Finesse Gear and ultralight lures. Switched to a Fly Fishing when my inline spinner kept fouling on the algae.

Started out with a Damsel Fly and had several strikes but no hook ups. Went to a Guadalupana in a smaller size hook compared to the Damsel Fly. Did better!

Worked mainly the areas near the bank as the water level in the pond was high from recent rains. Did work a more open area in the back pond to see what was cruising the area.

Caught most of the fish on a fast, short pull retrieve. Did get one Bass to take the Damsel Fly worked in its bed but as luck would have it, camera battery ran out.

Fun times fly fishing with nine Bluegill and four Bass caught and released!

Now if only the wind would calm down and we could get back to kayak fishing!

Good luck and good fishing!

Caught Few Catfish | Kayak Fishing #shorts

Guadalupe River Tenkara Fishing | Got Sidetracked... Oops!

While on the road a couple weeks ago, stopped in New Braunfels, Texas and fished the Guadalupe River at the River Access Park.

Opted for the Tenkara Rod as we were on the road and keeping things light. Worked out well, was able to get a quick trip in!

Caught little guys… looked like longear but did get sidetracked when I noticed a lingerie photo shoot was happening downriver.

Took a stroll downriver of course to scout the river for fish… wink, wink, wink!

Are Your Juglines Legal in Texas? #shorts

Making preparations for kayak fishing and juglining. Had to fix my juglines to make them legal in Texas. Rules require juglines to be at least 3″ wide and 6″ long. Good to go now!

While at it, replaced the Name and Address Label with a Customer ID Label. Liking it much better than the old rules!
