Great weekend in South Korea - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

philr21 · 05-05-2014, 06:10 AM

Fishing the Nakdong River last weekend. Just a portion of the trip caught on video.
The numbers:
1 Hobie Outback
21 hours on the water
4 bridges fished
6 bass, 10 three lipped chubs, 1 barbel steed, and countless river tarpon. 1 landed over 70cm, 1 even larger lost boatside.
1 most beautiful sunset.

Uploaded in HD so please feel free to watch full screen.

Fish were caught on Capt G rods, 3 to 8lb Sunline (I really like their Small Game Mono for this) and various jigs, swimbaits, Shad Raps, and Spro BBZ Shad.
Hope you enjoy the video! I thought it came out very well.

Thanks. That was a pretty big river tarpon. Hard to believe these guys are actually called predatory carp. In China they are called skygazers because of their funky eyes, they like ambushing prey from below.
