ARTIFICIAL BAITS ONLY - Offshore Kayak Fishing Destin. I decided to make a trip offshore with only artificial baits and see how it goes. Sometimes trying to get bait in a kayak can be a pain especially when its hard to find.

Good morning. We've got a beautiful, beautiful morning. Got calm seas, just a light north wind, but there's a ripple on the water so it's not too calm. I'm excited. So light gets up a little bit higher. I'll explain to you what we're doing this morning. I think we got enough light. Let's get started. Got two rods ready to troll. I got my Travala rod with my Penn 6500 SpinFisher 5 with 40 pound braid. I've got a Yuzuri shallow diver here. I'm going to troll on one side. I've got the same rod on this side and same reel except it's a live liner and I'm going to troll Yuzuri deep diver on this side. So we're going all artificial today. No live bait, no dead bait. So let me get these rods out and we'll get started trolling. Got something. Yeah, there we go. There we go. All right. See what we got. I think he's swimming toward me. Wow. That's got some power. That's for sure. What is that? Oh man. The heck is that? Oh, it's a Bonita. Nice. All right. Sweet. First catch of the day. Get these out. All right. Got some fresh shark bait. That's nice. All right. He's a pretty one. There you go. All right. All right. Let's go try dropping the jig here. Take off one of my cranks. Got something on the jig. Yeah, finally. I got on the jig. Ah, grouper. Nice. Sweet. All right. Second fish on artificial grouper. There we go. Get him loose. All right. Nice one. Pretty, pretty fish. Definitely not big enough to keep. All right. Let's drop again. Okay. There we go. That's better. Let me get the net ready for this one. It's heavier for sure. Oh, snagged the trigger. Wow. How did I do that? popped off right there. I never got to see it. Felt like snapper. Not quite big enough. going to try to drop the big DOA mullet. See how that does over here on the reef. Those damn trigger fish did. God dang it. All right. We're going to try a little artificial crab. It's got a little hook on it. Maybe I can get some triggers with that. There we go. Got Yozuri crystal minnow over here. Then I got a Yozuri shallow diver over here. Red and white and kind of mackerel color over here. All right. We are on. That is something big. That is really big. Oh God dang it. Did I lose my line? Yep. That must've been a shark. Freaking knot came undone.
