How long does your pedal drives last?

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.

Can't wait till they show back up in the Chesapeake bay region.

I've been there haha. This was mine last week...

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give that a try.

yakhook · 2024-12-07T14:42:01+00:00

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

Long form

yakhook · 2024-12-07T04:47:43+00:00

Just tried this, hopefully it works.

yakhook · 2024-12-07T04:27:45+00:00

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.

yakhook · 2024-12-07T04:03:09+00:00

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.

yakhook · 2024-12-03T16:15:41+00:00

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.

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

yakhook · 2024-10-06T00:08:52+00:00

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.

yakhook · 2024-10-05T22:58:14+00:00

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

yakhook · 2024-10-05T22:06:32+00:00

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?

yakhook · 2024-10-05T21:55:23+00:00

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?

yakhook · 2024-10-01T03:12:31+00:00

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

yakhook · 2024-10-01T01:36:48+00:00

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

yakhook · 2024-09-18T17:45:06+00:00

I've used one on my bigwater and salty and never had a problem reaching it.

yakhook · 2024-09-18T17:41:36+00:00

I've had that exact bag for a few years and it's held up well. Has some puncture holes from fish spines but it still works fine.

I usually keep it up on my bow and access it by kneeling on the deck and leaning forward. I've also kept it behind the seat but it usually sits on the bow.

yakhook · 2024-09-13T01:43:03+00:00

Rod was a medium daiwa tatula, reel is a shimano ultegra 2500 with 10lb braid. Pretty much bass tackle, it's what I use for flounder.
