Really nice video! Was the whole video shot with a Go-Pro camera?

Agree with a lot of others here, Always wear your lifejacket always. You also need a white light, I have one I made on my crate. I also use a head lamp,and a flashlight. When night fishing a worm or a jig,I use a black light you can see your line if you use flouresent line, it looks like rope using a black light. I have reflectors on my kayak too. I never fish by my self at night, when I`m out with my buddies I always tell my wife where I`m going and with who I`m going with. My favorite lure at night is a jitterbug, BLACK it`s a killer lure on smallies

The tube spinnerbait or buzzbait looked like a regular spinnerbait or buzzbait but had a tube lead head on it. I think it was made in Harrisburg,Pa. I had purchased them at the eastern sport show years ago in Harrisburg,Pa.

A few years back I had a few of these baits and they worked great. I think the company that made them went out of business. Does anyone have any info on how to make them or if a company still makes them. I would like to make them for myself with the input I get from here. They worked great on smallies. I lost the last one I had a few years back in a muskies mouth. Thanks

Does anyone know if there are any molds similar to the Gary Yamamoto mold for 3.5 inch swimming senco? If so where can I purchase one?

Check out Home Depot,they have all sorts of soft plastic boxes in all sizes and shapes.

Congrats on your new kayak. Just remember to be careful in cold weather,hypothermea can set in fast. Always wear your life jacket when in your kayak.

The best thing you can do is demo any kayak you are thinking of purchasing. The worse thing is you buy a kayak and you hate it , and you have only been on the water for ten minutes. Check into used kayaks, check the web to find what is out there and what is available. Don`t be to hasty buying a kayak right away, because the wrong kayak is money lost.

I find the best time to fish a jitterbug is at night also. I fish it slowly, you will hear the fish suck it in his mouth, but do not set the hook until you feel the fish on your line. I also like to use a bigger size jiggerbug at night , the fish just seem to prefer the larger profile bait. ( one warning though, watch out for owls) I`ve had owls come and grab the jiggerbug right off the water. Then trying to get lure back from owl is not fun!

If you want to learn how to fish a bait, you need to bring only that bait with you to learn how to fish with it. That way you will find out what the fish want. ( how fast to retrieve, different type riggings, do nothing fishing ) I fish sencos weightless, if the fish don`t bite on the fall I`ll reel it a couple of turns and let it fall again. If no bite then I will start working the senco like a fluke. I like nose hooking my sencos using a small circle hook.

I use both a cooler and a crate. My crate has a middle section, and a top. I have my plano boxes on bottom, soft plastic in middle, with a top or lid that is locked down using a bungee cord. My cooler is behind my crate or up front depending how I`m fishing. My cooler is a 12qt. cooler.

Good ideas guys my grocery list will be different than the wifes now.

He does a great job!

I`ll try these tips on my next outing thanks.

I like the patterns you selected. Are they ones that you had painted before? What brand are they?
