Fishing for bass in a kayak is fun in so many ways. Fishing for bass in offshore and in deep water is sometimes overlooked because it can be difficult to cast and stay on fish in the wind and waves, but it’s a fun challenge. I like the Hobie mirage drive or other Kayaks that allow you to peddle while keeping your hands on a rod. I’ve learned that using the peddle system like a trolling motor on a bass boat can be very effective in getting your lure where you want it. One of my favorite techniques for fishing offshore is a carolina rig. It is also an easy way to fish when you are faced with trying to keep your lure in place on a fast drifting kayak platform.

+LakeForkGuy could you do your rig(rod,reel,lures) at the end of your videos?
I'm getting a Powell 7 ft medheavy and pairing it with a shimano casitas 150 hg and using this for Texas rigs and smaller jigs and also chatter baits and spinner baits what line should I use
What is the biggest hook you have ever gotten stuck in you? And I'm thinking about getting the Shimano Aldebaren, is that a good reel for the money? Thank you.
you have a great platform its a Hobie stand up and cast ?
How do you decide whether to throw a deep diving crank bait or a swim bait in Deepwater
What fish finder are you using?
what kayak is that
Offshore is for saltwater fishing. Saying that makes you sound weak😁😁😁😂😂

@6:18 what tackle box is that? can you get them without dividers?
You need to fish kayak tourneys, just say in
Awesome video man, love what you do. Hope to be in the same position as you one day, just started making videos.. definitely subbed and gonna watch more
I kayak fish. This video was very helpful. I'll institute the trolling method that you utilized. Thank you, sir !
Awesome presentation tactic! I don't get to fish a c-rig very often, so seeing you present the c-rig gives me some confidence to give that a try!
CHECK OUT MY AWESOME BASS FISHING VIDEO AFTER RAIN STORM.
The lake Justin is fishing is Fayette County. It's a slot limit power plant lake that has fish year round from 2ft to 20ft due to it's low fluctuating water temperature. It's a wonderful lake to practice on and experiment with when trying to learn new techniques for bass fishing. There's fish every and will definitely produce fish for even the most novice angler. Nice vid Justin. Keep em coming!
do you use a swivel when u use the Carolina rig or do u just tie the fluorocarbon to the braid and put the weight on the braided line section
Nice video again!
Cool vid! Nice footage
Are you fishing in Fayetteville?
Is the zodias better than the crucial?
A video on how you're using your electronics would be great. What you're seeing, how you adjust it, problems you come across. I think a lot of people would find that informative
Subscribe for weekly fishing content coming soon!
Was that a norman scorpion i saw you throwing?? Love mine!
it's a Hobie!? why not stand and cast? I'd that an angler?
Love the kayak fishing videos.
That's Fayette!
Definitely need more videos of you kayak fishing
Very entertaining video
Sorry this is not on your video but I do watch them all question I have is I'm about to drop 200 in a reel and I like 99 dollar lews speed spool but I'm wanting better what would you go with for 200 dollars max thank you sir
Great use of the sonar but no fun fishing in lightning.
What's up lakefortguy What bait and style of fishing would you use for a lake with a low population of bass
Really enjoy your video's and different techniques. I noticed when you cast the end really whips. What is your favorite length rod and Brand? Thanks! Dave
How long do you like your carolina rig leaders?
Awesome! Fayette county lake. Top 5 lake in my book.
Do a bass boat tour please
I love your videos man….and would love to continue seein em….which wouldn't happen if you got struck by lightning lol. Furreal though, be safe out there dude. A couple extra fish aren't worth getting fried.
I swear every time a boat passed him and he looked at it I swear he was thinking, ( man I wish my boat was working)
So how many rods have you dropped in the water?
What are your settings on your graph?
Went out fishing in Lafitte, LA for some bass, and I wasn't paying attention and thought I was stuck on the bottom. Then my drag started just peeling out of my baitcaster and I saw what had to be a 6-7 pounder, easily my pb jump out of the water. I tipped my rod down because the fish was pulling quite hard and so I could get a stronger pull on him, and long story short, I had the slightest bit of slack in my line and lost the fish which still pains me to this day which happened about a week ago. My lesson I learned was to never lose concentration and never have ANY amount of slack in your line, or you could lose your pb like I did!
What lake is that
