Fishing my first kayak tournament of the year, the hobie bass open on the Harris Chain of lakes down in central Florida! I LOVE the harris chain, had a great practice, and got on a killer, all day top water bite today!

13:26 recap
My girl puts everything she’s got into those hooksets! How many times have you fallen out of the yak after one of those lol
I love watch your videos to my morning coffee. You mention that you like Sweden, have you been here ? Ron/ Sweden
I enjoyed your interview with Zal On their Podcast …good stuff
It seems you were quick on the hook set try waiting to set the hook I would keep that hook never know when you’ll need it
Did I see you use a chin or nose to press that thumb bar to drop a few fish in the boat? That’s different. Once again I enjoy hearing you talk about what you’re thinking along the way and what you think about heading in for next time. Another great video.
How do you maintain your balance standing up in your kayak???? Amazing 👏
Enjoy seeing tournament time again, feel like I'm out there fishing myself! Haven't been in awhile because, I'm still fighting cancer. Man I miss it,hopefully, my healing prays will be answered soon,being away from nature,really sucks!
Keep on catching & having fun.
Hope Pa &rest of family are fine!
Such beauty to see. Nice scenery too. Lol. You're amazing 👏
Cool get it done 👍
Kristine,
How do you not fall out of or flip that Kayak with all that moving around? I know Hobie is stable because I have a PA12. I would be in the water in a heartbeat.
I appreciate your discipline in not staying on the Big Bass on beds when they weren’t biting. Great lesson for all of us.
Exciting day 1!
So this tournament allows for the kayak to have motors? That is awesome. cant wait till they doe here
Good job .
I'm shocked you did not break your seat when you fell back .
The EZ bite will drive you insane 😖
Off to a great start with Hobie and BASS.
825 always do that
I thought you were going out of that boat a couple of times…didn't lose the fish though. Good job.
Great video as always. You always amaze me on how well you move around in a yak. Seeing you miss the seat and falling back had me chuckling thou. I’m glad you added it makes me feel better about my yak experiences.
Kristine, that sure was some fancy dancing you were doing during hook sets, and musical chairs almost didn't work out, but I enjoyed every minute of it! I just love watching you work your magic, take care and be safe!
You are always inspire me to do better…and to not try to fish out of a Kayak! Lol..there is a reason I have a 20 foot bass boat..I would have fallen out a dozen time. You are always in my prayers!
lol, girl you give me so much anxiety watching you trip around the boat 😂
Great video. Glad to see I was throwing the correct things just not near fish 🤦🏻♂️. I’ll see you on Norman, go get them on Rayburn.
What’s a big buck??
Fun video. Quick question: Do you think a priduct that was a combo of a bullet weight-ewg-peg combo that made a rattling sound would catch 'em? Ala rattletrap sound on a Texas rig?
Bubblegum painted belly jitterbug
I live in the wrong state…lol
Awesome thanks … First tournament jitters you'll lock it in soon.
Dannnnnnng! ! ! That away to do it. Great Fishin’ with a bit of slap-stick comedy thrown in. Can’t wait to watch day 2.
you got a great set up. the intro is better this year. GO KRISTIN
No longer a fan since you started scoping. That’s not what fishing is about, that’s looking. Sorry.
Damn girl you going to fall out that kayak if you aren't careful.
Great into, good luck in the tournament! You deserve another W I N !!
Love the new intro. Y’all better watch out cause Kristine is on fire. Love the catch info too. How is pa doing?
Great job.
Thought you were gonna fall out of the kayak when setting the hooks.
I see why women want the toilet seat down now. Fun to watch
Killed it! And that intro 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This right here is the example of a perfect woman , a woman that loves the water and loves to fish is perfect in my book !
I believe you have the sickest Kayak Angler video intro on this planet! Lol 💯🔥😎👌
GOOD LUCK. Smash EM
Gambler baits seemed to be working well. Was the EZ Swimmer working better than the Big EZ?
Confidence is high! Good plan for day 2. Just keep yourself in the boat 😂
👍👴🦸♀️🎣🇺🇸🦅
Love watching the kayak swing when you hit big fish, instant recognition and hold on
Glad you hit the seat that 2nd time! U R 2 cool, thanks for what you do
Really like how you added the catch info., that's top notch content creation! Also, the new intro is very cool, and of course 😁 congrats on the outcome!👊
