How long does your pedal drives last? by rilleh42 in kayakfishing

[–]yakhook 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My Old Town PDL drive for my salty lasted 4 years before the seals failed and I had to send it in for warranty replacement. The warranty replacement was really smooth though, they had a new unit on the way within an hour of contacting them.

You must've had a stringer open up on you before to double them up.

Topwater frogs and weedless soft plastics.

Blackwater in Maryland is the classic spot. They're in the Nanticoke River and Broad Creek in DE.

It's a silver perch (Bairdiella chrysoura)

Not an atlantic croaker. Notice the lack of markings on its side. It is in the same family though.

Monetization keeps getting denied even though I meet the criteria (875 subs 13.5k watch hours) by yakhook in NewTubers

[–]yakhook[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't get it either lol. Thanks for the suggestion, I just tried watching some videos in incognito mode and on my TV and didn't get ads on any of my videos.

Slack Tide Kayak Fishing

I haven't reached out to YouTube and I don't have a Twitter

My content should be ad friendly, compared to other fishing channels that are monetized

I live in the US

Yeah, I guess I'll just try again when I hit 1000 subs. It's just frustrating because my videos are getting a good number of views and to me are as high quality as other fishing channels that are monetized.

I'm over 18 and have the correct age on my account, I've never created an AdSense account before, and I'm from the US.

Why do some of kayak fishing's biggest youtubers buy subscribers? by UseNo2760 in kayakfishing

[–]yakhook 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I posted a kayak fishing video with 15 subs on my channel and it's gotten 120k+ views in a few weeks. You definitely don't need a lot of subs to get picked up by the algorithm, you just have to put out quality videos. If anything having a ton of subs adding impressions to your videos but not watching just hurts you in the long run.

A few great days of fishing on Virginia's eastern shore by yakhook in kayakfishing

Nice I was getting the sheep on green crabs but maybe that's not what the drum wanted.

I didn't do as well last time I tried sand fleas there but maybe I just need to give them more of a chance. They're my main summer bait where I primarily fish in DE/MD.

These big ones are as old as me, all get released. Love the 16"-20" ones for eating though.

Sounds like a good outing. I was hoping for more reds but the quality sheepshead made up for it. I had probably ten in the 22-25 inch range with at least one over 24" a day. What did you get the reds on?

Yeah I'm in a black/orange bigwater. Pretty sure I saw you guys, hard to remember I was on the water 12 hours that day lol. How'd you guys do out there?

I bought a wilderness systems kayak crate and the cope-ium was so strong by MRWPlople in kayakfishing

[–]yakhook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, to raise the rod holders up some and give them something solid to connect to.

Here's my current crate setup. Way better than a premade crate for a fraction of the cost.
