Fishing while on Vacation

Watch the video HERE

While we were on a vacation in Cocoa Beach, Florida Kerri and I wanted to get out on the water so we rented kayaks from A1A Beach Rentals and had them dropped off around the Thousand Islands area of the Banana River. We had a blast in that area. We caught mostly Speckled Trout and some larger Pinfish. I hooked into one Redfish on the flyrod but it snapped me off and missed the set on another. We also had a pod of Dolphins swim around us throughout the day, a Manatee try to cruise under my kayak, Pelican’s who were interested in our catch, and even a crab sighting.

It is amazing what you see when you get off the beach.

Looks like you guys had a blast! If you ever catch a bigger one of those Sea trout they taste fantastic on the grill. Caught one once when I was younger at Sanibel. Gotta love kayak fishing! Made me look forward to warm weather here.

We seek out pinfish around pilings so we can target larger fish offshore. You can catch a ton on a sabiki rig. You might get spoiled fishing the ocean

That’s what we were told! That Pinfish can be great bait. We caught a few acrobatic Ladyfish off the pier in my other video and I was told that they can make great bait for bigger species like Tarpon.

Yeah, I heard that from a few locals afterwards. I kind of wish I would have kept one to filet now.
